No Holds Barred: The Bollywood Boyz VS Ever-Rise!

Last week, Samir & Sunil Singh couldn’t get the ending they wanted with fellow 205 Live OG, Tony Nese and Ariya Daivari. And the week before that, they were upstaged by Chase Parker & Matt Marthel! And now, with no disqualifications or count-outs holding them back, will this Bollywood remake be a certified blockbuster?

The brawl is on the second both teams are in the ring! Bollywood and because there’s nothing holding them back, this is basically a Tornado Tag! The Bollywood Boyz have Ever-Rise in opposite corners, then whip them at each other! Parker and Marthel do a dosido and come back to hit the Singhs! Ever-Rise whips the brothers now, they dosido but Ever-Rise dodges to hit them again! Marthel and Sunil brawl on one end, Parker has Samir on the other. Sunil throws Marthel into boards, but Marthel tackles him back! Parker and Samir go around the way, the teams regroup but the Bollywood Boyz hit back!

Samir throws Marthel into boards now, and Sunil bumps Parker off buckles! The ref checks on Parker’s nose but Parker elbows back! Samir joins Sunil, they coordinate and feed Parker to boots! Jawbreaker and a FLYING BULLDOG! Cover, ONE! Sunil undoes a buckle pad while Samir throws haymakers on Parker. The Bollywood Boyz stomp a mudhole into Parker, then bring him around to feed him to the steel! But Marthel makes the save! Samir DECKS Marthel, Sunil windmill kicks Parker! Cover, TWO! The Bollywood Boyz double suplex but Marthel saves Parker from that to DOUBLE LARIAT!

Marthel hoists Samir up and makes him straddle the top rope! Marthel then knocks Samir down to the ground before he goes after Sunil with haymakers. Marthel whips and elbows Sunil down! Fans boo Marthel as he paces and brings Sunil back up. Parker returns, backbreaker and running KNEE! Cover, TWO! Ever-Rise drags Sunil up, CHOPS him, and then have him on the ropes for a mugging! They slap Sunil around and talk trash, then double whip. Sunil kicks Parker, throws Marthel out, but Parker throws Sunil out. Samir drags Parker out and then SPRINGBOARD CROSSBODIES! Everyone goes down and the fans fire up!

Samir drags Marthel up and into the ring, Sunil goes in and he goes after Marthel. Backbreaker, but Parker disrupts the Bollywood Blast as he clubs Samir down!

Both men are down but Sunil is up top! MACHO ELBOW! Cover, but Parker breaks it! All four men are down and fans are fired up! Sunil goes out, Parker goes to a corner but Marthel has Samir. Samir blocks the lift, switches but no O’Conner roll! SINGH CAM ATTACK! All legal in this and Samir covers, but Parker breaks it!!

Sunil wants to bring the camera in but the ref says he can’t. But this is no disqualifications, or did the ref forget? Marthel CLOBBERS Sunil while they argue! Parker ROCKS Samir but Samir hits back! They brawl and get faster, and the fans are loving it! Samir rakes eyes, climbs up and rains down rights in the corner! Marthel comes up and each member of Ever-Rise gets a leg! A SWEET TASTE to the bare buckle!! Cover off the double flapjack, Ever-Rise wins!

Winners: Ever-Rise, by pinfall

Even with no rules holding the Bollywood Boyz back, Marthel and Parker win again! Perhaps that is why #EverRiseRules! But will they be getting a taste of tag title gold in the coming days?

 

Jake Atlas VS Tony Nese!

These two have gone back and forth against each other, and between both 205 Live and NXT! Atlas won on the black ‘n’ gold, but Nese says the purple ‘n’ orange is his show, and he will never lose on his show! But will there be a new Mr. 205 Live after tonight?

The bell rings, Nese and Atlas circle and feel out the grapple. Fans rally as the two tie up but Nese spinning back kicks, then throws forearms! Nese bumps Atlas off buckles and shouts, “This is MY show!” Nese scoops Atlas and slams him down, then soaks up heat as Atlas gets up. Nese throws Atlas out hard, taunts the fans then goes out to fetch Atlas. Nese shows Atlas the logo on the announce desk and bounces him off it! “I’m the Premier Athlete!” Nese puts Atlas in at the count of 4 and gets in at 5, but Atlas fires off! Atlas bumps Nese off buckles, CHOPS him, then throws forearms!

Nese gets around and waistlocks, Atlas switches to O’Conner roll but Nese slips out. Nese shoves, blocks a kick and trips Atlas up! BIG elbow drop but Atlas moves and comes back to RANA! Nese staggers up into Atlas’ forearm, CHOP and another forearm! Nese headlocks, Atlas pops out to headlock back, but Nese back suplexes high and hard! Nese covers, TWO! Nese drags Atlas up for another back suplex! Fans jeer Nese with “Tony Sucks!” as he stalks Atlas. Nese kicks at Atlas, toying with him. “What do you got?!” Nese drags Atlas up and CHOPS him! Fans rally for Atlas as Nese drags him up for a suplex! Cover, TWO!

Nese grows annoyed but he grins as he looks down on Atlas, literally. Nese drags Atlas up, bumps him off buckles, then hops up the corner. Nese flexes but fans boo, and Nese leaps at Atlas, only to get caught! Atlas has the legs, and catapults Nese into a corner! Nese bounces off buckles and into a roll-up, TWO! Atlas runs but Nese CLOBBERS him with the flying elbow! Nese hurries back and covers, TWO! Nese grits his teeth and glares at Atlas as he looms over him. Nese drags Atlas up, fans rally, but Nese whips Atlas to a corner and hits a clothesline! Atlas flounders and sputters but Nese comes back. Fans chant “You Still Suck!” as Nese throws forearms! Nese dares fans to say he sucks as he CLUBS Atlas again!

Nese paces, drags Atlas up, and whips Atlas back to a corner, for another clothesline! Atlas flops down again, and Nese counts his 8-pack! Nese gives more toying kicks as he tells Atlas, “You’re on MY show now.” Nese brings Atlas up for another back suplex! Atlas writhes, Nese covers, TWO! Atlas is still in this and Nese is growing frustrated. Nese drags Atlas up, whips him corner to corner, then runs in, into a BOOT! Atlas CLOBBERS Nese from behind and fans fire up! Atlas gets up but Nese follows, to THROAT CHOP! Nese talks more trash, then runs to HOTSHOT BULLDOG! And then a PREMIER TRIANGLE! Cover, TWO! Atlas survives and frustrates Nese again!

Nese keeps Atlas down with a chinlock but Atlas kicks and flails to get up. Fans rally, Atlas rises, and he rams Nese into a corner! Nese holds tight but Atlas rams him in again! Atlas is free, but Nese clamps back on! The ref counts, Atlas fights up but Nese back suplexes, only for Atlas to make it a crossbody! Cover, TWO! Atlas BOOTS Nese, then fires off forearms! Atlas gets around, spins Nese and LARIATS! Fans fire up with Atlas and he throws European Uppercuts and a SNAP GERMAN! Nese flounders up into a ROLLING ELBOW! Cover, TWO!! Nese survives, he is still a former Cruiserweight Champion!

Atlas goes to a corner, Nese anchors a foot but Atlas hits back. Nese fireman’s carries Atlas, tucks him in, but Atlas flails to avoid the driver! Atlas has the ropes, uses them to boost into the SUNSET BOMB! Cover, TWO!! FLYING JAWBREAKER! Nese staggers to ropes, Atlas goes up but Nese trips him up! Atlas couldn’t get the cartwheel off in time and he flops down to the mat! Atlas is in the corner, Nese pulls down knee pads and has a target, but Atlas gets up before the knee comes in! Nese redirects and clotheslines both Atlas and himself out of the ring! The ref starts a count as both men are down at the ramp! We’re at 5 of 10 as the two men finally stir. Nese is in at 7, Atlas stands at 8 and leaps in at 9.9!!

Nese glare at Atlas and Atlas glares back. Nese goes out to get a chair?! This isn’t No Holds Barred like the earlier match! But this is all distraction for ARIYA DAIVARI to drag Atlas out and POST him! Fans boo but the ref completely misses this! Atlas is back in the ring, Nese goes up top, 450 SPLASH! Cover, ROPEBREAK?! Atlas saves himself and even Daivari is shocked! Nese puts Atlas back in a corner, runs again, but Atlas is back up again to intercept! Atlas gives a KNEE of his own, and then the FLYING JAWBREAKER! Nese staggers, Atlas goes up, CARTWHEEL DDT! Cover, Atlas wins!!

Winner: Jake Atlas, by pinfall

Daivari Dinero could not make Atlas pay, and then Atlas is ready to stop him from bringing the chair in! Atlas looks ready to swing on the OG, but they regroup and retreat! Is there going to be a new pecking order in the purple ‘n’ orange now?


My Thoughts:

A pretty good episode for 205 Live, and I did NOT expect the tag match to be a No Holds Barred match. It was pretty good for one, but all the more reason they should try and let 205 Live be longer than half an hour. I am fairly certain Ever-Rise and Bollywood Boyz could have gone a lot longer than they did, to properly bring things back to this show’s “golden days.” I will say it is surprising Ever-Rise won, but I suppose they’ve been building up a lot of momentum from NXT so it makes some sense.

Then we got a really good match out of Atlas and Nese, even with Daivari getting involved. I’m still not sure why they keep trying to make the cartwheel DDT happen, to where they’ve even given Atlas a move that only serves to set him up for it. I suppose it’s hard to come up with completely original finishers, so it was just easier to stick with what he had than spend an unknown amount of time working out something else. But Atlas winning was still a good move. Daivari and Nese have been on 205 Live for a long, long time, I’m not sure they’re ever going anywhere else other than NXT, but being gatekeepers on 205 Live is still a solid role.

My Score: 8.1/10

Andrew’s TNA iMPACT! Results & Match Ratings: 3.28.2024

TNA tapings from Philly! Knockouts Number 1 Contender is decided! Rich Swann explains his heel turn and Chris Sabin vs Steve Maclin in the main event!

Published

on

Hey, even if Xplosion has been a complete waste of 45 minutes, last week’s iMPACT! showed some promise with this newer direction at least. We’re getting a return of the 8 for 1 match for the Knockouts World Title. So we’ll get a number one contender for Jordynne Grace, apparently Chris Sabin and Steve Maclin have a match, but we get some answers from Rich Swann on his heel turn.

Time to see what else we have going on!

Ratings:

  • 8 for 1 Match: Rosemary, Dani Luna,  Xia Brookside & Steph DeLander vs Havok, Jody Threat, Masha Slamovich & Alisha Edwards: Dani wins via Schoolgirl Roll-Up – **
  • Dani Luna vs Steph DeLander vs Xia Brookside vs Rosemary: Steph wins via TKO – * 1/2
  • Grizzled Young Vets (James Drake & Zack Gibson) vs Cody Deaner: GYV wins via Grit Your Teeth – SQUASH
  • Josh Alexander vs Tracy Williams: Josh wins via C4 Spike – ***1/4
  • Mike Bailey w/Trent Seven vs Eddie Edwards w/Brian Myers & Alisha Edwards: Eddie Edwards wins via Boston Knee Party – *** 1/2
  • Steve Maclin vs Chris Sabin: Maclin wins via KIA – *** 1/2

 

Results:

8 for 1 Match: Rosemary, Dani Luna,  Xia Brookside & Steph DeLander vs Havok, Jody Threat, Masha Slamovich & Alisha Edwards

So this is a random tag pairing, which the winning team than faces each other in a Fatal Four Way for Number One Contender position; that explains why half of Decay and Spitfire are on opposite teams. 

Steph faces off with Havok first but tags out to Rosemary to try and shirk responsibility, but Rosemary and Havok work together to level Steph and then Rosemary tags back out to purposefully bring DeLander back into the match. Havok throws Steph around a bit, even Lish gets in some offense, most notably her Bodyscissors Bulldog, but Steph tags out to Dani, Dani and Masha go after each other and then the match slowly starts to break down.

Dani hits the Rope Assisted Blue Thunder Bomb on Masha for 2, and starts looking for the Luna Landing. Masha slips it and we go into a bit of a locomotion Cradle spot which Dani gets the best of and wins the tag for her team!

Dani Luna vs Steph DeLander vs Xia Brookside vs Rosemary

As the match is getting set up, Masha attacks Dani to wipe her out. So the other three start fighting, Xia charges a corner, gets ole’d and she flies into ASH by Elegance who was seated at ringside because she had cosmetic surgery and couldn’t wrestle. ASH posts Xia, gets banished from ringside by the referee, back in the ring Rosemary does her rise from the dead spot and looks to finish Steph but Matt Cardona comes out of nowhere, hits the Radio Silence, Steph DeLander hits the TKO for the easy 1-2-3.

Steph DeLander is number one contender and Matt Cardona is back! Not a terrible wrinkle. The match barely existed but at least these returns are nice. 

GYV hits the ring to complain about Cody Deaner costing them the match against Time Splitters last week. So they call him out and he’s out in Red and Yellow trailer park Flash attire. Santino apparently is allowing Deaner to pick one of the GYV members to fight. Philly picks both, so Deaner attacks both. 

Grizzled Young Vets (James Drake & Zack Gibson) vs Cody Deaner

Cody gets the best of Drake early but then the GYV work over Deaner a bit early, Gibson starts talking smack and Deaner tries to Hulk Up, and it seemingly works. Combination Punches, Manhattan Drop, Corner Bulldog, tries the Deaner DDT, but Gibson cuts him off with a throat chop.

Drake uses the scarf to take advantage of the referee not looking, and then some Grit Your Teeth gives the GYV a win.

Josh Alexander walks out again to be the Talking Weapon…and yeah, not really a big fan of when he speaks. He’s dressed to wrestle so lets hope its an open challenge or a Philadelphia Drink Off with Sandman showing up…or something. Just not a lot of talking, please. OH GOOD, open challenge. Josh calls out Hammerstone, but he gets some Hot Sauce instead of Hammers.

Josh Alexander vs Tracy Williams

As expected with these two, early World of Sport style open with some chain wrestling into athletic counter wrestling and shrugging off both men’s first attempt at submissions. They both take a beat, then we go into a Chop Battle, Williams slows Josh with a Kitchen Sink, but Josh grabs him in the Vertical Suplex and then spill over the ropes. Josh is back in first, Williams tries to crawl up, eats a strike and then eats Josh’s Low Crossbody spot. So now Josh starts dogwalking Williams around the outside.

Josh throws him back in, drives a knee into his face, but as Williams tries to fight back, Josh stops all of that with a Northern Lights Suplex Hold for 2. Josh goes for a Heel Hook to weaken the ankle for a potential Ankle Lock. So just early joint manipulation and Back Breakers from Josh leaves Williams writhing and absorbing so much…not really fighting back much. Tracy tries a desperation short Headbutt to the gut like he’s Spike Dudley, but it seems to just annoy Josh. A few traded Overhand Chops, C4 Spike attempt but Tracy drops his weight. Josh gets a little arrogant, starts with a few half assed slaps and it allows Tracy to fire a few strike, Back Drop Suplex, drives Josh into the corner and sets up the Avalanche Butterfly Suplex. Tracy goes for a submission but Josh is too close to the ropes.

With all of Williams’ offense, Josh manages to fire through and land an Exploder Suplex to rock Tracy. A few more big moves from Josh, into the Power Breaker seems to give Josh all of the momentum. C4 Spike again, Back Drop counter, Back Elbow and Tracy tries a corner set up but Josh cuts him off and they start fighting on the top. Williams counters the Superplex, DDT into the top corner buckle, Death Valley Driver into an STF, then Crossface but Josh is fighting. Piledriver attempt from Williams, straight right says no, Release German Suplex, straps go down but Tracy kicks Josh in the face. They trade Big Boots, Josh with a Backslide into the C4 Spike for the win!

Both these guys chant kicks up, Josh offers the handshake, they go for the corny Indie respect moment and Hammerstone hits the ring and lays them both out. Hammer puts the head gear on Tracy and throws him into the Torture Rack. 

This might be Ali’s best promo ever.

Mike Bailey w/Trent Seven vs Eddie Edwards w/Brian Myers & Alisha Edwards

I do really like The System’s theme song. 

Eddie goes for the NOAH Chop, Bailey ducks the first one and tries to keep things quick, but Eddie catches him and caves in his chest real quick. Front Kick from Bailey into the Back Handspring that culminates into a Gamengiri, Eddie powders and Speedball goes for the Tope con Hilo. Arm Wringer into a Round Kick to the chest. Bailey breaks the count, eats a chop and then get go into a kicks and chops trading spot. Myers provides enough of a distraction since they’re on the outside so Eddie scoops Bailey and Blue Thunder Bomb on the apron.

Another count reset, this time from Eddie and the Chops continue from Eddie. Eventually Eddie throws Bailey back into the ring, very unceremoniously, drops a knee to the eyes and goes for 3 pinfalls in quick succession. Fingers to the eyes, chops to the chest, Backpack Stunner attempt but Speedball wriggles free and John Woo Dropkick gives him some space. Spinning Back Kick, Axe Kick, Round Kick, Running Shooting Star, for 2! Speedball slaps his chest to try and send a message while he starts lighting up Eddie with about half a dozen Round Kicks to the chest. He then goes for the Lightning Kicks while Eddie is on the ropes, Myers pulls out Eddie, Bailey attempts a dive but puts the brakes on, acts like he’s distracted by Myers but avoid Eddie’s sneak attack. Kick to the face into a Corkscrew Asai Moonsault, back in the ring, Tornado Kick from Bailey, goes for Ultima Weapon but he eats a Gamengiri into the Backpack Stunner for 2!

Both men rise, Chop from Bailey sends him on his ass, and we go back to kicks versus chops. Bailey with the combination kicks, tries the Buzzsaw but Eddie moves, Lariat! Tiger Driver attempt, but Bailey says no, Backflip Knees gives Bailey all the momentum. He tries the Tornado set up, Myers and Alisha get involved but Trent Seven nullifes Myers, Bailey with the Double Clutch Superkick to rock Eddie, he goes back to the Tornado set up but Lish grabs his feet, Bailey fights her off, drops Eddie, goes for Ultima Weapon but misses! Boston Knee Party to the back of Bailey’s head, Eddie wins!

There’s a quick video package for the FBI next week. Not sure if that means we only see Guido, or if Vito and others will show up.

Rich homie Swann and AJ Francis show up and I’m fairly sure he named them “First Class”. They keep saying AJ Francis in the same cadence as AJ Styles, so I get what they’re doing there. And Swann basically says AJ was the only one who cared about how Rich was doing, Hendry just stole his thunder and did nothing. “If you ain’t First Class, you’re last” – Talladega Nights references? Well now.

Steve Maclin vs Chris Sabin

Mostly an uneventful start, a few moments from both men, Sabin speeds things up when he ducks out and baits Maclin to try the Scud Missile, but he outsmarts him by sliding back in. Maclin doesn’t full commit to the dive but does roll out a little hard which gives Sabin the chance to jump on him. Baseball Slide, Wristlock over the ring post, throws him back in and looks for a Grounded Top Wristlock. Sabin acting a bit more like Shelley with the joint focus, but Maclin manages to use the ropes to his advantage and bounce Sabin off of them twice.

Maclin finally has some control, Forearm to the low back, drapes Sabin on the middle rope and drives the knee into the back of his head. Maclin lays in some chops, grounds any of Sabin’s attempts and locks in a Chin Lock. Sabin finally fires up , but Maclin hits the Olympic Slam to stifle Sabin’s attempts. Maclin perches Sabin, tries the Superplex but a few punches and a bite gives Sabin an opening and Sabin connects with the Missile Dropkick. Manhattan Drop into a Crucifix cover for 2, Swinging Neckbreaker causes Maclin to retreat to the corner and Sabin focuses a few Forearms to the back of the head and a Snap DDT.

A few wild swings from Maclin give Sabin a gift, so he goes for the Crossface. Maclin barely rolls tot he ropes to break the hold, powders out and moves out of the way of the Plancha. BUSAIKU KNEE to level Sabin. Jar-Headbutt for a near fall! Maclin Tree of Woes Sabin, Caught in the Crosshairs, Sabin sits up but Maclin knows how to avoid the post. A small back and forth, Mayhem for All and only a 2 count! Jar-Headbutt number two misses, La Magistral for only 2, both collide with lariats and then go into the Fighting Spirit spot. Slugfest but Sabin hits a Sole Butt, Sabin tries to continue but Maclin coldcocks Sabin sending him to the outside, Scud Missile Dive – MISSES! Maclin is laid out on the outside, count out starts, Sabin is back in around 6, Maclin barely beats the 10. Springboard Tornado DDT from Sabin for a near fall!

Cradle Shock attempt, but Maclin fights it off. Sabin jumps, misses, Tree of Woe, Caught in the Crosshairs! Maclin tries the KIA but Sabin turns it into a Wrestler’s Bridge Pinfall for only 2, but Maclin holds on to the arms, connects with the KIA and wins!

 

Overall Score: 7/10

Well aside from the fact the opening match was a little bit of a hectic mess and Kon is still a storyline relevant thing…the better portion of the episode was pretty fun. I didn’t love the allusions to Santino handing out rights to challenge and open challenge vouchers, felt like a weird “authority” figure kind of spin. But when he finally showed up and continued to be the lovable goof, its all good.

Ali had his best promo ever, “Mr Rhinoceros”, was a great way to spin into the conversation with Rhyno. Sabin steering more into Shelley’s bag of tricks and still coming up short is interesting. Steph DeLander with the big return win and bringing Cardona back with her is generally a fun angle. Speedball looked awesome and Hammerstone did a great job looking like a massive douche and executing the best Torture Rack since Lex Luger.

Of course there’s a few gripes, but all in all, it was pretty fun.

Athena VS Nikita!

The Fallen Goddess was stressed out watching Hikaru Shida tune up for Supercard of Honor, so she’s getting back in the ring to work through that. Will Athena prove this is still her show? Or can The Russian Vixxen take advantage of Shida being on Athena’s mind?

The Code of Honor is upheld, the bell rings, and then Athena rushes in! Nikita dodges to rally with lariats and a SLINGBLADE! The fans rally, Nikita runs in at the corner and she SPLASHES, to then BULLDOG! Athena gets spiked and Nikita gets fired up! Nikita brings Athena up, underhooks, then PEDIGREES! Cover, ONE?!? Athena is tough but Nikita is still surprised. Nikita storms up but is sent into buckles! Nikita stops herself just in time, and she ROCKS Athena! Nikita brings Athena in while she goes up the corner, for a HANGING HEADSCISSOR! The ref counts, Nikita lets off, but Athena gets mad!

Athena DIVES and wipes Nikita out against barriers! Athena is mad now, and she brings Nikita up to THROW her into railing! Athena shouts at Nikita, then wheelbarrows to SWING her into barriers! Athena says you’re welcome and takes a bow, then she goes back for Nikita. Athena puts Nikita in, looms over her while soaking up cheers and jeers, then stalks Nikita as she crawls. Athena hauls Nikita up, CLUBS her again and again, then underhooks for a BUTTERFLY SWING! Athena TOSSES Nikita away, drags her up, and then HALF HATCH SLAMS! Nikita is dazed, but Athena sits her up. Athena ties up the legs and puts on a STANDING CROSSFACE! Nikita taps, Athena wins!

Winner: Athena, by submission

Ahead of crossing swords with the Shining Samurai, the ROH Women’s World Champion is sharpening her edge. As such, she SHOTGUNS Nikita back down! The fans boo as Athena CLUBS away on Nikita! Athena then puts Nikita in the Tree of Woe and lifts her up, to KICK away on Nikita’s back! Athena takes the belt, puts it in front of Nikita’s face, and she trots as she takes aim. But wait! Here comes Shida! The fans fire up as Athena runs away! Shida helps Nikita out of the Tree, then picks up the belt Athena left behind! She even dares Athena to come get it back! Is Shida going to be the one that finally dethrones the Overlord? Or will Athena make sure “forever champion” means forever?

 

Backstage interview with Lee Johnson.

Renee Paquette is here to talk with Big Shotty, and notes his impressive 2024 streak. He asked for this time, so what’s going on? Lee says that he has said it before and he will proudly say it again. He is not here to take part, he is here to take over! And now let him add something else: he is here to take titles! Now, he has heard there’s an ROH World Television Championship match between one champion in Kyle Fletcher and All Heart, Blake Christian. Now, whoever comes out victorious, Lee’s calling his shot! Supercard of Honor, Big Shotty’s got next! Lee is ready to swing for the fences, is he going to get his chance to hit it out of the park?

 

Dalton Castle VS Nick Comoroto!

The Peacock is still in his slump, and not even his substitute Boys are enough. Meanwhile, did the Freak Beast really shave his beard? Then which change will be the more hindering? Castle without Brandon & Brent, or Comoroto with Jacoby Watts?

The Code of Honor is upheld, and in tight quarters, and the bell rings. The fans rally for Castle as he and Comoroto circle. Castle squats low, real low, then he rushes up to collar ‘n’ elbow! Comoroto powers Castle right to a corner, the ref counts, and Comoroto lets off at 4. Comoroto makes the pecs dance and then flicks sweat at Castle. Castle storms right up, and he, uh, “hip” checks Comoroto! Comoroto gives it back! Comoroto smirks but Castle gets those hips moving. Then he hits the low leg takedown! He rolls Comoroto then CLUBS away on him! Comoroto gets free, kicks low, then ROCKS Castle with a haymaker!

Comoroto bumps Castle off buckles then RAMS into him again and again and again! The ref counts, Comoroto whips Castle but Castle reverses to TOSS Comoroto! Comoroto holds on and he manages to skin the cat! A big cat at that, but Castle waistlocks! Comoroto holds onto ropes to stop the lift, then he backs Castle into a corner. Comoroto throws elbows, gets space and comes back, but into a BOOT! Castle runs up, into a LARIAT! The fans rally, Comoroto huffs and puffs and brings Castle up. Comoroto reels Castle in, but Castle Alabama Lifts! Comoroto CLUBS Castle down then shoves him away.

Comoroto swings but Castle blocks to ROCK him first! Castle fires more forearms, but Comoroto shoves him away. Comroto runs up, Castle gets around, BIG GERMAN SUPLEX! The fans fire up, Comoroto staggers to his feet, and into an Alabama Lift! BANGAAAAAA~RANG! Cover, Castle wins!

Winner: Dalton Castle, by pinfall

Comoroto is a big man, so this was a big win for The Peacock! But wait, here comes Taya Valkyrie! And she tells Castle, “How dare you say that we are irresponsible! Yeah, we lost The Boys. But after the short time we had them, I realized how rude and annoying they are! So, I’m glad we lost them! Because they were a couple of BAD boys!” The fans boo but Taya says yeah, she went there! And they probably got it from Castle! Because Castle never loved them! Not like Mommy & Daddy TV loved them! So for that, Castle deserves this! Sneak attack by Johnny TV! MOONLIGHT DRIVE and a SHINING WIZARD!

Johnny rains down fists on Castle, then says they were BAD boys! Castle set a bad example for them! They’re all losers! The fans boo but Mr. & Mrs. TV just stand over Castle to make out! Then they stomp Castle on their way out! Even as he wins matches, will Castle still be lost in life with The Boys lost in the woods of Canada?

 

Mark Briscoe speaks.

“Philadelphia. For #DemBoys, that is the origin of professional wrestling. That’s when we felt it. That’s when we said this is in our soul, man.” Jay himself once said, “This is what we was created to do, man.” Baddest tag team on the planet, almost a quarter century, and BOOM, it gets taken away in a moment. So Mark’s starting over from square one, flying solo. Continental Classic, the game plan was to get on top, and to soar! But his wings were clipped, humbled once again. But there’s this voice inside of him, it’s Jay’s voice, that says, “Don’t worry about that broken wing, son. You was born to fly. With wings like an eagle, we gonna mount up.”

Mark knows Eddie Kingston’s got that same voice inside of him. “Ain’t that some s*it?” Mark knows Eddie’s had the highs and lows, the peaks and valleys, just like Mark. Eddie became the first American Triple Crown Champion, took on all comers defending that, but then lost to the AEW Continental Championship to Kazuchika Okada. Eddie talked to his mentor, Homicide, and agreed that it is time to tap into something from the past. Into that hungry Eddie, that ruthless Eddie, that vicious Eddie. The Eddie with that dog in him! That Pitbull! Every yard has a top dog, but Eddie, you may be ROH World Champion, but Mark’s gonna show you in Philly that MARK is top dog!

April 5th marks 11 years to the day that brother Jay won his first ROH World Championship. And just like he told Mark, time to man up. Eddie, it is time to man up. Philly, it is time to man up! Mark Briscoe VS Eddie Kingston, ROH World Championship, Supercard of Honor, we will man up. But who will be the man that holds up that title at the end of the night?

 

Diamante VS Kiera Hogan!

The Cuban Diamond won big in a Four Corner Survival, and she won in the opening round of the ROH Women’s World Television Championship tournament. Both of those losses only served to fan the flames, and now Kiera wants to turn up the heat! Will Kiera get her lick back? Or does Diamante just have Kiera’s number?

Kyle pretends he can’t hear all the boos, but he can’t pretend he doesn’t see Lee Johnson walking out on stage! The Aussie Arrow may have hit the bull’s eye tonight, but is he about to get shot down by Big Shotty?


My Thoughts:

A great ROH at an hour and 20 minutes, and even the matches I skipped ended up being a lot of fun to watch. Great comedic stuff in Cutler & Cabana winning, with Cutler showing off how cut he is under the tracksuit. And there was a great mix of comedy and meaty men slapping meat in Uno VS JD Drake, with a great win for Uno in his home country of Canada. KPK got a great showing here but that added to the quality of the win for Top Flight. And good win for Maria Kanellis’ boys but there was no story advancement with Spanish Announce Project so that was pointless.

Great opening stuff with Athena, in that she dominated Nikita but then got run off by Shida. Shida had a good promo though I wouldn’t have waited until right before the main event to play it. As I said before, Athena VS Shida is going to be great stuff, and this could be the moment for Athena to lose and then move on to AEW to get in on those titles. There was a great video recap package to hype Billie Starkz VS Queen Aminata, but nothing from those two directly. Diamante VS Kiera was really good, and it was logical for Kiera to win since Diamante won their previous 1v1 match. This doesn’t automatically make Kiera the #1 contender to the Women’s TV title, but she’s in the conversation.

Great match from Castle and Comoroto, and honestly, Comoroto looks good clean shaven. Good win for Castle, and of course Johnny & Taya beat him down to add to his misery. I still want savage, feral Boys to return to help Castle get revenge on Johnny & Taya, though. And awesome main event for the men’s TV title. Blake looked great even in defeat, but uh, what happened to Ethan Page? Another dropped ball in the ROH TV title division and Lee Johnson gets to run with it now. Kyle is more than likely defeating Lee at Supercard, but that really depends on what part he’s going to play in Ospreay’s story within the Don Callis Family.

My Score: 8.7/10
