Backstage is pretty chaotic right now. Everyone is scrambling to get ready for the show.

The stage set-up is larger than normal, with an extra giant screen on the right and more lighting. The crew tested the show opening a few minutes ago, including the pyro. It was pretty amazing stuff.

There's a buzz around the show that I haven't felt in a while.

About half of the wrestlers are here already. Chris Champion showed up much earlier than he normally does and he's preparing for his match right now. I've heard that Dominic Pericolo is here as well, but I haven't seen him yet.

Dade Midvalley has been on his cell phone for ever since he walked into the building a few hours ago. He's now in his office with the door shut.

We're conducting some special interviews with the crew for a feature in the next NLCW Magazine. I just talked to head referee Paul Morgan. Man, does he have some stories to tell!

Both Charles and I will be providing updates throughout the day.
