From Rob Brodhecker:
When I walked into the Face 2 Face school, it felt like a reunion of sorts, with a lot of people I first met at NWA Atlanta. If you've ever been to the new WWA4 location, F2F is a similar set-up but with chairs on all four sides and no mats laying on the floor. They do have a concession area and one restroom.
Bell time is for 8pm.
Teddy Long welcomed the audience to the school. Exhibition match to start.
