– After their debut for a PPV taping in Toronto, DG: USA is already looking to return to the venue.

– The company was disappointed by the attendance in Windsor, and the belief is that they made an error booking the show there instead of Detroit. The feeling is that the US fans did not make the trip to Canada, as you need a passport to travel back and forth now.

– PAC debuted over the weekend and will be brought back.

– Scott D'Amore's Maximum Pro Wrestling got very high marks for their promotion and involvement in the weekend show. Both sides will likely work together again.

– Jade Chung was booked as BxB Hulk's dancer at the Toronto PPV but didn't get on the apron.

– So far, the company is happy with the advance ticket sales for their one-year anniversary show in Philadelphia on July 24th.

– Finally, there was a very scary injury at the end of the Uprising PPV taping, where FIP champion Jon Moxley almost lost his nipple. Jimmy Jacobs hit a tope on Moxley, and Moxley hit the guardrail, which sliced his chest. When Moxley got backstage, his nipple was basically just hanging there, and he was in extreme pain.

– Here is the card and video preview for the Dragon Gate USA Mercury Rising PPV, which debuts on May 14th on PPV?
