Not sure how many weren't planned to be on the show because they were "selling" from the previous week or not but a bunch of these names apparently live in Florida. Lots of guys moved out there during the pandemic when Daily's was in a residency, or living there from their time in WWE etc.
What's more damning to me is that they didn't fully utilize the people still in the building. Like the Lucha Bros were on Dark. Why? On a show like this, throw them against literally anyone and you'll get a decent match instead of awkwardly stretching out Saraya and Britt yapping.

This is the only actual takeaway Vito. "Card subject to change" includes mother nature, especially when it was known Ian was going to fuck FL up over a week ago.
So, make do with what you DO have, not excuses. The fact is (I did NOT watch) last night was a weak ass show that could have been handled MUCH better, even from an armchair bookers PoV going on name alone.
Tony Khan screwed Tony Khan and Tony Khan needs to get outta Tony Khan's way.
