RADICAN’S BEYOND WRESTLING REVIEW SERIES
“POINT OF NO RETURN”
SEPT. 15, 2013
PROVIDENCE, RI
BWPONR.jpg


(1) Kevin Steen vs. Chris Dickinson. Steen and Dickinson brawled out into the venue from the back while the ring announcer was introducing the show. The match was slow toget going at first, but the second half of the match really picked up and the action got good. Dickinson dominated a lot of the action and they had some hard hitting exchanges. Steen took a lot of punishment from Dickinson, but managed to kick out several high-angle suplexes that targeted his head. Dickinson kicked out of one package piledriver, so Steen picked him up and hit a second for the win. (***)

After the match, Dickinson put over Steen and Steen returned the favor. Dickinson then low blowed Steen and said he was here when Beyond Wrestling fans had 2 fans at the beginning and now guys like Steen were reaping the benefits.

Dickinson ended up getting cheered and didn't do anything to try to turn the tide against himself. Dickinson saw Tomasso Ciampa standing at ringside and asked if he was a ROH wrestler before shoving him. Both guys ended up getting pulled apart by several wrestlers.

(2) Abnormalz (A.R. Fox & Black Baron) vs. M1Nute Men (Devin Blaze & Tommy Trainwreck) vs. Da Hoodz (Davey Cash & Chris Pyro) vs. Fusion Dance (ACH & Shynron). The match stipulates that the winners pick up 3 points and everyone that doesn't win loses a point in the rankings. Most Beyond Wrestling matches only give the winner one point and the loser loses a point, so that stipulation added some meaning given the amount of points given to the members of the winning team.

Trainwreck stood out early in the match showing his power when ACH couldn't take him down with a shoulder tackle. A lot of spots seemed off at times, but the fans were into then fast-paced action. Fox hit a cool move where it looked like he was going for a springboard on ACH inside the ring, but he ended up hitting Lo Mein rain to the floor on a pile of men. Shynron hit a crazy 630 off the second rope onto Baron, but the pin got broken up.

The action seemed to go on forever in an endless sequence leading to Fox and Baron putting away Blaze with a bunch of tandem maneuvers capped by a power bomb into a back breaker from Baron. Two of those maneuvers should have been plenty to end the match. I was surprised to see Fox was at (-6) in the rankings before the match, but with the win, he went climbed to (-3). (**)

Ciampa came out and said the promoter told him he could talk to the fans. Ciampa said he wrestles for ROH and they pay him to travel. He said if that bothers Dickinson he can come to the ring. Dickinson came down from the balcony where he was doing commentary and they began brawling, but were quickly separated. Colorado tried to paint Ciampa as a crazy man who had gone too far when he was given promo time.

(3) Aaron Epic vs. Matt Taven (Kasey Ray). Taven came out wearing the ROH World Title and made out with Ray once they got into the ring. Taven got a mixed reaction from the fans. Colorado said this was a non-title match, but a win could get Epic some attention from ROH officials. The fans chanted back and forth for both men before the opening bell. Epic got the better of Taven with some exchanges on the mat. He also got several two counts with pinning combinations. Ray finally grabbed Epic's boot from the outside and Taven nailed him with a dropkick that sent him into a pole next to the apron. Taven acted cocky as he worked over Epic. At one point he hit a suplex for all of the people on the ghetto of Providence.

Epic tried to mount another comeback, but Ray pulled him off the apron and sent him down to the floor. The crowd chanted for both men and Epic finally connected with a big discus forearm that left both men down on the mat. Epic ran wild on Taven, but he cut him off with a double under hook face buster. Epic hit a pair of knee strikes to the front and then the back of Taven's head for a near fall. Epic hit a fastball punch. Taven's hand was under the ropes, but Ray put his foot on the ropes for good measure to break the pin fall. Epic went after Ray, but Taven cut him and hit the bulldog driver for the win. This was solid, but the match was never very exciting to watch. Taven and Ray kissed on the mat after the match. (**)

The next match was supposed to be Dan Barry vs. Jaka vs. Johnny Cockstrong vs Oleg the Usurper.

Barry got on the mic and said Bill Carr had the night off. He said his three opponents didn't stand a chance against the law. Cockstrong grabbed the mic from Barry and said Jaka and Usurper wanted to join him and face him 3 on 1. Barry went to ringside to find a couple of partners. He found Buxx Belmar eating out of the garbage and he agreed to join him. Barry then went backstage and brought out the Swamp Monster as his other partner. Colorado mentioned that Jaka hates the Swamp Monster on commentary.

(4) Johnny Cockstrong & Jaka & Oleg the Usurper vs. Dan Barry & Buxx Belmar & Swamp Monster. Barry kicked Cockstrong low, but he no-sold it and went to town on Barry before tagging in Jaka. Barry fired back on Jaka and tried to interrogate him in the corner about an illegal denim ring. Jaka talked in gibberish, so he tagged in Belmar, who threw up on Jaka. Barry told Belmar to get out of the ring because he's gross. The Swamp Monster then tagged in and choked Jaka. Barry then tagged back in and nailed Jaka with a huge chop. He lead the crowd on singing "The Lion Sleeps Tonight" while Jaka moaned like a baby from the impact of the chops.

Jaka fired back on Barry and tagged in Cockstrong, who did the cock roll on Barry. The fans chanted "Dicks." Usurper got the tag and ran the ropes several times before hitting a big splash in the corner on Barry. The action broke down and Belmar wiped out Usurper and Swamp Monster with a big twisting dive to the floor. Cockstrong them hit the pencil cock dive onto everyone on the floor. Barry then hit a crazy SSP to the floor on everyone and the fans went nuts.

Barry worked over Jaka and Belmar got into the ring am burped and coughed on Jaka. Belmar grabbed a headlock and licked Jaka's face. Jaka ended up cutting off Barry up top. Everyone from both teams got involved. Oleg finally ran into the corner and hit the tower of doom on everyone and the fans went nuts again. All six men got to their feet and traded blows. Jaka, Usurper, and Cockstrong got the upper hand and hit their finishers for a triple pin. I was expecting a lot out of this match, but it was a lot of fun to watch. (***1/4)

Nicholas Kaye came out and got on the mic, but Stone ran into the ring and took him down.

(5) Nicholas Kaye vs. Anthony Stone in an I Quit match. This is a heated rivalry and Colorado ran down the history between both men. Kaye kidnapped Stone at "Americanrana" to set up the latest chapter in their rivalry. Stone brought a chair into the ring and tossed it at Kaye's head. Kaye flipped off Stone, so he tossed the chair at him again. Stone then drop kicked the chair into Kaye's head. Stonewashed a charge in the corner and flew to the floor. Stone tried to charge at Kaye, but Kaye tripped him into a chair. Kaye then hit a double knee strike on Stone, who was still leaning on the chair, off the apron.

Kaye set up Stone in the corner and put a chair over him before hitting a big kick onto the chair. Stone avoided a senton on the apron and the fans tried to rally behind him. Stone slammed Kaye on the ring steps. Wow, that was brutal. Kaye refused to quit. Stone hit Kaye in the chest with a barbed wire bat,but
Kaye hit a low blow to get the upper hand. They battled on the apron and Kaye hit a variation of the RKO.

Kaye went after Stone with the wet floor sign for several minutes. Kaye dumped some thumbtacks on the mat. Both men ended up battling up top. Stone eventually hit a Crucifix bomb off the top into the thumbtacks on Kaye and the fans went nuts. Stone applied a Boston crab on the tacks. Someone ran into the ring and attacked Stone. It was Mike Quest. He ended up cuffing Stone to the ropes with his hands behind his back in the corner. Kaye told Stone he couldn't win and told him to quit, but he refused. He told Quest to go get Stone's kid. Quest went to the outside and Stone quit.

Kaye attacked Stone after the match with the mic and then the wet floor sign and the fans booed. The ref ended up freeing Stone from the cuffs. This match had some brutal spots, but they didn't do anything ridiculous. The story between these men is really dark, but it's well done and I'm looking forward to seeing were this angle goes (***)

The Wingmen were shown in the ring interrupting a twerking contest. Shurman asked the fans where the chicks were. Gregory asked for chicks to come to the ring. The fans chanted for chicks to come to the ring. Tabernak De Team came out and went right at it with the Wingmen.

(6) Tabernak De Team (Mathieu St. Jacques & Thomas Dubois) vs. The Wingmen (Gregory Edwards & Mark Shurman). The Wingmen got the upper hand and worked over Dubois. St. Jacques dragged pulled Edwards off the top to give his team the upper hand. St. Jacques tagged in and began working over Edwards’s arm. The crowd chanted for Gregory to use his mustache to mount a comeback. Tabernak De Team worked over Edwards for a long period of time and taunted Shurman several times in the process. Shurman finally got the hot tag and ran wild on St. Jacques. The Wingmen continued to dominate the action as they hit a series of moves on St. Jacques, but they only got a 2 count. The action broke down and Edwards went for a missile dropkick, but Tabernak De Team caught him and tossed him into the turnbuckles. They then suplexed Shurman into Edwards into the corner. Tabernak De Team finally hit a double Alabama slam on Shurman and Dubois made the cover for the win. This was a good showcase match for Tabernak De Team. (**1/4)

(7) Chuck Taylor vs. Eric Corvis. Taylor got cheers coming out and Corvis was booed. The fans chanted “Use your goggles” at Corvis. The fans then chanted “Use your glove” at Corvis, who was dressed in steampunk gear. Corvis tried to use his glove to turn off the lights, but it didn’t work, so Taylor decided to put a beating on Corvis. Corvis eventually countered a suplex and hit a slam on Taylor to get the upper hand. The fans chanted for Corvis to use his gears. Corvis got his book and sat down and Taylor to read it. Taylor grabbed Corvis’s book and mounted a comeback. The fans chanted “Book of dicks.” The fans chanted “Gears, Gears, Gears” while Corvis mounted a comeback. Taylor fired back and hit a missile dropkick. Taylor followed up with a DDT a short time later for a 2 count. Corvis rolled over Taylor out of the corner and hit an impressive German suplex for a 2 count. Corvis put on his goggles as the fans taunted him. He went up top, but Taylor cut him off and hit sole food for a nearfall.

Taylor went for a slingshot through the ropes. Taylor ended up hung up on the ropes and Corvis went for a springboard moonsault across the ring and totally whiffed, but Taylor sold it anyways. Corvis tried to attack Taylor with his glove. The official ended up taking a shot to the face with the glove. The official and Corvis fought over the glove. Corvis ended up taking a shot from the glove to the face. Taylor shoved the official into Corvis. Corvis thought it was Taylor and went for a side slam, but the official countered it into a head scissors takedown. Taylor then got an inside cradle for the win. This wasn’t a very good match outside of the fans being entertaining while heckling Taylor. (*1/2)

The double main events started next. The first match up is J.T. Dunn vs. Michael Elgin. Dunn got a good reaction coming out for his entrance. Colorado said Dunn kept showing up and getting better after he started in Beyond Wrestling. He mentioned that Dunn had pushed Gargano to the limit at “Americanrana” and then beat Gargano a short time later at an NEFW show. Elgin came out next for his Beyond Wrestling debut to a good ovation from the fans. Colorado said this would be a great test for Dunn. The ring mic malfunctioned and Elgin threatened to beat up the ring announcer. Elgin went after the ring announcer, who bailed to the outside. Elgin asked the crowd for a “You f----- up” chant and the fans obliged.

(8) J.T. Dunn vs. Michael Elgin. Dunn offered a handshake, but Elgin held on and hit a big side slam for a 2 count. Dunn mounted a comeback and pulled the ropes on Elgin. Elgin flew to the outside, but Elgin got right back into the ring and surprised Dunn with an elbow while he set up for a dive. Dunn fired back and hit an ace crusher on the apron. He followed up with a pair of suicide dives. Dunn went for a third dive, but Elgin got up on the apron, so Dunn nailed him with a kick. Dunn went for a third suicide dive, but Elgin caught him and slammed him on the floor and the fans went nuts. Elgin began working over Dunn on the outside. He ended up picking up Dunn before driving him into the ringpost. Dunn hit a chin breaker, but Elgin immediately took him down with an elbow as he bounced off the ropes. The fans tried to rally behind Dunn. Elgin lifted Dunn for his signature stalling suplex. Elgin did squats as the fans reached the count of 60 before dropping Dunn down to the mat. Elgin covered Dunn, but he managed to kick out at two. Elgin hit some huge forearms on Dunn, who kept popping up and firing back at Elgin. Elgin finally sent Dunn down with a huge forearm good for a 2 count. Elgin went for another stalling suplex, but Dunn slipped behind Elgin and got a sleeper hold. Elgin fired up after the ref dropped his arm twice. He drove Dunn into the corner. They went to a big exchange with Dunn nailing Elgin with a series of strikes and kicks. Dunn went for a sunset flip, but Elgin sat down on him for a 2 count.

Dunn went for a slingshot x factor, but his foot got caught on the ropes and he didn’t fully connect with the maneuver. Dunn favored his leg and Elgin immediately began working it over. Dunn fired back and spun Elgin on the mat before hitting a seated ace crusher for a 2 count. Dunn favored his leg as he went up top. Elgin ducked a dive off the top, but Dunn landed on his feet. Dunn charged at Elgin in the corner, but Elgin hit a big slam out of the corner. Elgin hit a hellavator on Dunn before following up with a German with a bridge for a 2 count. The fans chanted for Dunn after he kicked out. Elgin went back to work on Dunn’s leg. He went up top, but Dunn cut him off. Elgin elbowed Dunn to the mat and went up top. He went for a corkscrew moonsault, but Dunn rolled out of the way and went on the attack. Dunn hit a standing sliced bread, but only got a 2 count. Dunn tossed off his elbow pads and limped once he got to his feet. Dunn went for a rolling elbow, but Elgin blocked it with a kick. They went to a big exchange and Dunn went for a rolling Elbow, but Elgin obliterated him with a huge clothesline. Dunn kicked out at one, so Elgin nailed him with another huge clothesline, but Dunn kicked out at the last second.

Elgin set up Dunn for the buckle bomb, but he swept Elgin’s legs out from under him and hit a double stomp. Dunn favored his leg and didn’t go for the cover. Dunn set up for a springboard, but Elgin nailed him with a dropkick. Elgin then lifted Dunn off the apron and hit a dead-lift suplex off the ropes for another 2 count. The fans applauded and began chanting for Dunn. Elgin hit the buckle bomb, but Dunn countered the Elgin bomb into an inverted hurricanrana. Dunn then came off the top with a double stomp, but Elgin kicked out at the last second and the fans went nuts. Dunn tried to put Elgin up top, but Elgin hit a powerbomb off the top and then a buckle bomb, but Dunn rolled him up with a jack knife cradle for an insanely great nearfall on Elgin. Elgin blocked a superkick and hit a death blow on Dunn. Elgin then hit a roaring elbow, a backfist, a buckle bomb, and an Elgin bomb for the win. What a gutsy effort by Dunn.

This was a great match with Dunn making some insane comebacks while trying to combat the power of Elgin. The fan reaction as the match went on was fantastic to watch and the outpouring of emotion from the fans after the match towards Elgin was well-deserved. The match really picked up after Dunn hurt himself after catching his legs in the ropes going for a slingshot x-factor and Elgin began working over Dunn’s leg and Dunn made several comebacks that had the crowd exploding. (****1/4)

The fans chanted for both men after the match. Dunn sold his leg after the match and had a hard time getting to his feet. I’ve heard he legitimately injured his leg during the match, so it likely wasn’t an act that he was having a hard time getting to his feet once the adrenaline wore off. Elgin got on the mic and said he wasn’t supposed to be cutting a promo. He says he wrestlers all over the place, but he was really excited to wrestle in Beyond Wrestling. Elgin said he had heard things about Dunn, but in wrestling you can’t always believe the hype. Elgin said after this match, it’s not just Hype. The fans chanted for Dunn. Elgin said he didn’t shake his hand at the beginning of the match, but he promised Dunn he would shake it now. Both men then shook hands and raised their hands for the fans. Dunn was helped to the back after getting out of the ring.

The Edwards-Busick rivalry continues in the main event with both men choosing their own partner. Edwards ended up choosing Strong and Busick chose Gulak. Busick got a big pop coming out for the main event. Edwards got in Busick’s face as he got into the ring. The fans chanted for Busick once he got into the ring. The Dojo Bros. got a big chant during their formal introductions. Busick also got a big response from the fans before getting in Edwards’s face. All four men shook hands after the bell rang. Colorado said there was no personal animosity between these teams. He said this was a professional rivalry and it was about finding out who is the best.

(9) The Dojo Bros. (Eddie Edwards & Roderick Strong) vs. Biff Busick & Eddie Edwards. The match began with some good back and forth exchanges on the mat between Gulak and Strong. Edwards and Busick then tagged into the match and the fans fired up. Edwards and Busick exchanged holds on the mat. Edwards got a head scissors on Busick, but he managed to escape and back off to the corner. The fans chanted for Busick before both men went at it again. The fans fired up as Edwards and Busick began exchanging big chops. Strong tagged in and hit a big chop before putting the boots to Busick. The action broke down with Edwards going at it with Busick and Strong going at it with Gulak on the outside. Strong ended up hitting a suplex on Gulak on the apron. Edwards then slammed Busick onto the apron and the fans chanted for the Dojo Bros. Edwards and Strong took control and began working over Busick inside the ring. Edwards went for a suplex, but Busick countered it by dropping his weight down. Busick eventually hit a suplex on Edwards, but was unable to capitalize. Strong and Edwards ended up taking turns hitting some brutal chops on Busick in the corner, but Gulak made the save. Strong and Edwards tagged out and began working over Busick’s back. Edwards went up top a short time later, but Busick cut him off. Colorado said it was a mistake for Busick not to tag out, as he managed to land a superplex on Edwards.

The fans fired up with Edwards and Busick down on the mat. Busick finally made the hot tag to Gulak, who ran wild on Strong. Gulak slammed Strong right into the ropes and Strong favored his leg. Gulak went right after Strong’s leg on the mat. These guys are beating the crap out of each other! Busick tagged in and told Gulak to release his hold on Strong. Busick apparently wanted to trade chops with Strong. They began exchanging chops and Strong hit a huge chop that sent Busick down. Colorado said Busick should have tagged out, but he chose to stay in the ring because he wanted to do it on his own. Busick ducked a charge in the corner and Edwards flew through the ropes into the ringpost. Gulak got the tag and ran wild on Edwards and Strong. The fans fired up as Gulak began working over Edwards. Busick tagged in and told Gulak to back off of Edwards. Busick waited for Edwards to get to hit feet. He then began exchanging chops with Edwards. Colorado said Busick wanted to beat Edwards and Strong at their own game. Edwards quickly cut off Busick and tagged in Strong, who began working over Busick. Strong picked up Busick and tossed him right into the ropes. Busick ended up spilling to the floor. Edwards picked up Busick and threw him right into the pillar at ringside. The fans tried to rally behind Busick as he continued to take a beating from Edwards back inside the ring. Busick cut Edwards off and made the tag to Gulak, who ran right into a series of chops from Strong. Strong nailed Gulak with a flurry of strikes in the corner capped by an Olympic slam for a 2 count. The Dojo Bros. knocked Busick off the apron and nailed Gulak with a combination of strikes capped by a back breaker/knee drop combination for a 2 count.

Gulak cut off Strong and hung him upside down in the corner. Gulak then cut Edwards off and suplexed him into Strong in the corner. Gulak tagged in Busick, who nailed Edwards with a big running uppercut. He then hit a blockbuster on Strong for a 2 count. Gulak and Busick began working together to work over Strong. The fans fired up as Gulak and Busick began working together effectively for the first time in the match. Strong countered a doomsday device and shoved Busick into Gulak in the corner. Strong held up Busick for a missile dropkick from Edwards. Strong then hit a big back breaker for a 2 count. Strong applied the Stronghold on Busick. Gulak tried to make the save, but Edwards caught him with the Achilles lock. Busick managed to finally get the ropes to break the submission. Busick went at it alone with Strong and Edwards, but the Dojo Bros. hit a gut buster/running clothesline combination on Busick. Gulak made the save before being tossed back to the outside. Busick hit a half and half suplex on Strong, but turned right around into a double sledge hammer off the top from Edwards. Edwards went up top again, but Busick caught him with a huge uppercut as he came off the top and everyone was down. The fans fire up and chanted “This is awesome.”

Busick landed several uppercuts on Strong, but got caught with a jumping knee. Gulak ran into the ring, but he also ate a jumping knee to the head. All four men began exchanging strikes in the middle of the ring. Man these chops are brutal! Gulak and Edwards began exchanging chops at a rapid pace. Gulak got the Gulock on Edwards, but Strong broke it up. Busick then hit a half and half suplex on Strong that was good for the win. This was a really incredible display of hard-hitting action from start to finish with all four men exchanging some brutal looking chops. The fans were into the action from start to finish. (****1/4)

Edwards got on the mic and said Beyond Wrestling is the place to be for independent wrestling. Edwards shook hands with Gulak and told Strong he loves him. Edwards told Busick it’s not over between them. The fans began chanting for one more match. Edwards said he wants one more match with Busick. The fans chanted for an Iron Man match. Edwards told Busick he could name the stipulation. The fans continued to chant for an Iron Man match. Busick asked the fans who wants to see them wrestle one more time. The fans chanted “One more time, one more time.” Busick said he wants an Iron Man match with Edwards. The fans chanted “60 Minutes.” Edwards got on the mic and asked the fans what an old friend from ROH says these days. The fans began chanting “Yes, yes, yes.” Edwards then accepted the match to end the show.

Overall thoughts: (8.0) – “Point of No Return” was a really good follow up to “Americanrana” for Beyond Wrestling. I hope they can speed up the DVD releases, as these shows look fantastic in post-production and do a good job of capturing the atmosphere at Fete Music in Providence, RI. Beyond Wrestling has one of the best crowds going in independent wrestling today at Fete Music.

Although it didn’t appear that Beyond Wrestling was going to have many storylines when they began running at Fete Music, owner/booker Drew Cordeiro has done a good job of introducing them into the fold. Dickinson vs. Steen was a good opening match. It started a little slowly, but once it picked up the action was really good and the post-match promo from Dickinson voicing his opinion that ROH wrestlers don’t belong in Beyond Wrestling because they are taking spots from the guys that have been there from the start got off to a good start. Dickinson needed to do more to get the fans to turn on him during his promo, but his brawl with Tomasso Ciampa later in the show was well done.

The show hit a couple of lulls on the undercard, as the multi-team tag and Epic-Taven were both forgettable matches. The first half did come to a solid close with a better than expected I Quit match between Kaye and Stone that was set up on the last show. I like the dark storyline that is being used to prop up the Stone-Kaye angle and they too some big bumps in this match and used a lot of weapons, but they weren’t reckless with unprotected chairshots, which was good to see.

The Cockstrong & Jaka & & Usurper vs. Belmar & Swamp Monster & Barry match was a lot of fun. I’ve never seen a stranger interrogation than the one conducted by Barry, Belmar, and Swamp Monster on Jaka. The comedy in this match was funny and I’ve really come to enjoy Cockstrong in Beyond Wrestling. It’s just hard not to laugh at his antics. Once the match picked it up, it featured some really good high-flying action and a huge tower of doom spot that got the fans at Fete music rocking.

The second half of the show didn’t get off to a strong start, but Tabernak De Team-The Wingmen and Taylor-Corvis did a good job of giving the fans a chance to breathe before the stellar double main event of Dunn-Elgin and Dojo Bros. vs. Gulak & Busick.

Dunn had his coming out party against Elgin. This was a really good match and once Dunn hurt his leg going for a slingshot x factor on Elgin, the fans really began to invest in the match as Dunn made a number of spirited comebacks against the powerhouse Elgin. The fighting spirit spots from Dunn were excellent down the stretch and they stood out because it was the only match on the card where they were used. I thought Dunn’s match against Gargano at “Americanrana” was really good, but Dunn’s coming out party took place on this show against Elgin.

The main event between the Dojo Bros and Busick & Edwards continued the ongoing rivalry between Edwards and Busick in Beyond Wrestling with both men picking their own partner for this match. The match was really good from start to finish and if you like hard-hitting action, you’re going to love this match. The story of the match was that Busick wanted to prove he could beat Edwards and Strong on his own and he took a ton of punishment during the match as a result. The spot where Edwards and Strong took turns chopping Busick in the corner is sure to make you cringe once you see this DVD. Once Busick decided to work with Gulak against the Strong & Edwards, the odds evened and the action really picked up down the stretch with some great back and forth sequences before Busick pinned Strong clean in the middle of the ring. The post-match did a great job of setting up the blow off match to the Edwards-Busick feud, as Busick was allowed to choose the stipulation and he listened to the fans and challenged Edwards to an Iron Man match.

Beyond Wrestling does a nice job with their DVD releases. The graphics are sharp and I really enjoy the replays of the big spots that were inserted into the picture during every match. The talent and style of matches up and down the card is so diverse and you won’t see a card like this anywhere.
