The LA Reign home match was a success. This was the first time attending a GRID Match and I can say that it is way more entertaining in person than via the live stream. The live stream was exciting in itself but watching the match in person and hearing the crowd roar in person was on another level of excitement. If you have the chance you should check out the LA Reign’s home match at the Walter Pyramid in Long Beach coming up in a couple weeks.
Here is the video to watch it in case you missed it, or just want to compare how it looks in person compared to watching it on a screen.

A big PR From Patrick after a long and grueling Hero Workout this AM. I think Pat is going to be the next NOX Competitor to hit that 400# club.
