Nemeth retains after a well paced and fantastic Iron Man Match and Zachary Wentz is X Division Champion and riding high off his No Mercy win over Wes Lee. The System got rebooted at the expense of Joe Hendry’s team, and well, Hendry was 0-2 last week with the cheap shot causing Ethan Page to retain.

Some of the bigger questions after Emergence are: 

What the hell are they gonna do with Joe Hendry?

What exactly does JBL want with his end of show appearance?

Are they finally burning the Knockouts Tag Belts with gasoline?

Let’s find out if we get any answers to those questions!

COMING SOON…..

Ratings:

• Kushida vs Laredo Kid: No Contest – N/A
• Kushida vs Josh Alexander: Josh wins via C4 Spike – **
• Open Challenge: Knockouts Championship: Jordynne Grace (c) vs Karmen Petrovic: Jordynne wins via Juggernaut Driver – ***
• The Good Hands vs Zachary Wentz & Speedball Mike Bailey: Wentz wins via UFO Cutter – **
• Eric Young vs Jake Something: EY wins via Piledriver – **
• Moose & JDC vs Joe Hendry & Mike Santana: Moose wins via Lights Out – ***

Results:

The System opens the show with JDC and Masha in tow, Lish is in a decorative neck brace selling the injury with style. They’re getting very loud boos as Lish hits the “Do You Wanna Know Something”. Victory Road is apparently turning into an Always Sunny episode; ‘The Gang Remembers they have Rematch Clauses’. Moose references Wade Barrett as a “Britsh Lad” when he drops a Bad News line. He also tells JDC that if they win the tag match against Hendry and Santana then JDC is in, but if they lose, he’s out. 

Lish does say that she’s under concussion protocol and could find a suitable replacement if she’s not cleared. Spitfire comes out, Dani Dumptruck is looking like the whole ass entrée that she is. Victory Road will be Spitfire versus DeMalish, but if Spitfire lose, they break up. 

Kushida vs Laredo Kid

They both try to grab limbs but they counter wrestle and avoid in more of a Japanese Junior style. Kushida had Laredo Kid grounded with a Wristlock of sorts, but Laredo fights back to his feet, runs Kushida around, causes him to powder. Laredo looks for a Dive but slides in and cuts off Laredo sending him to the outside. Kushida goes for a Dive and Laredo hits the Mirror Move like a classic Pidgeot.

But before we can get any more Cruiserweight action, Josh Alexander hits the ring and starts leveling both men. C4 Spike for Laredo and Ankle Lock for Kushida. Security gets Josh to leave, Josh says its his house he does what he wants but Kushida grabs the mic and says “Ring bell ring bell, me and Josh, do it!”. I wrote it out, since he actually said it in English, so it shows he is practicing.

Josh ignores the demand and tries to walk away but Kushida collects him with a Dropkick and throws him into the ring as the bell rings.

Kushida vs Josh Alexander

Kushida lays into Josh with a few strikes but then we hit the commercial break.  Off the break Josh tries to Shoot on Kushi, but Kushi moves, wrestles for positioning and hits a German Suplex on Josh, stomps in Josh’s fingers and hunts for the Arm Bar. Josh manages to roll out and drag Kushida with him, break the hold and walk off a bit. Kushida follows, looks to keep on top of the arm, but Josh rams Kushida into the apron, and then uses his shirt to choke Kushida before the referee takes it away.

Josh throws a few Knife Edge Chops and Kushida walks forward trying to ignore the pain but gets dropped on the fourth chop, classic Backbreaker into a 2 count. Josh hooks in a Headlock, but Kushida fights back to his feet. Knee Lift from Josh, rope run, but Back Fist, Baseball Punch into Pele Kick…but Josh grabs the foot and looks for the Ankle Lock! Kushida counters out of it, gets Josh off balance and looks to aim for the Hoverboard Lock, but Josh fights through it and turns it into a Brainbuster. C4 Spike attempt, Kushida with Cradle counter for 2, Baseball Punch is blocked, Kushida gets thrown into the corner, Josh drives his knee into the focused ankle, Ankle Lock! But Kushida doesn’t tap, and Josh just decides to go for the C4 Spike.

Kushida’s pride caused this match after he was already dinged up, so Josh winning in a fairly dominating fashion isn’t crazy. But they quickly go to Kushida being helped back, Hendry is there since Kushida is in a bad way, so Hendry and Josh have a few words. I guess that’s where we go with Hendry for the interim.

Open Challenge: Knockouts Championship: Jordynne Grace (c) vs Karmen Petrovic

Arianna Grace comes out first, to say she’s the NXT liaison, which makes sense because she’s Santino’s shoot daughter. I don’t know a ton about Ninja Barbie, but I’m not mad.

Karmen starts with a few low Round Kicks, looks for a Sleeper, but Jordynne fights it off. Some back and forth, Back Elbow into Spinebuster from Jordynne for a 2. Jordynne works her into a corner, Karmen tries to fight out with a Back Kick, but Jordynne catches her, Electric Chairs her, but Karmen rolls through and looks for a Triangle Choke! Jordynne keeps Karmen in that position and stands up with her in Electric Chair, just to slam her back down and make a point. Karmen gets up and Jordynne trades the kicks for Scoop Slams, but Karmen slips a slam and Spinning Back Kick to the back of Jordynne’s head for 2. Jordynne is rocked but catches Karmen, World’s Strongest Slam into a Vader Bomb, but the Bomb is missed. Karmen hits the Down Kick into a Facebuster. A few more martial arts strikes from Karmen before Jordynne gets annoyed and pulls out a Gonso Style Powerbomb for 2.

They work to the corner, Karmen with a few High Snap Kicks, pulls her out with her heel, Spinning Heel Kick rocks Jordynne. A few low Axe Kicks, then some short Side Kicks but Jordynne connects with a Spinning Backfist and Polish Hammer drops the NXT wrestler. The fight up to the top rope, Karmen fights her off and Crossbody drops Jordynne, Karmen was setting up for what I can only assume it her finish, but Jordynne ducks it and Juggernaut Driver allows Jordynne to retain.

Lights go out and a pillow is in the ring next to Jordynne. Wendy Choo is marking her target? 

Sounds like ABC will challenge First Class NEXT WEEK on TNA iMPACT! @The_Ace_Austin @DashingChrisBey @KCwrestles @AJFrancis410

Zachary Wentz comes out to just say how happy he is that he won, Speedball’s music hits and he walks out to congratulate Zach. Victory Road is rematch clause the Musical. Bailey does the babyface rematch before the Good Hands walk out to sour to environment and then Skyler distracts them on the mic while Hotch hits them from behind. Referee Paige runs out and says Santino is making another impromptu match.

The Good Hands vs Zachary Wentz & Speedball Mike Bailey

Santino doing good work with the random matchups, after the match is made official, Wentz and Speedball clock the Good Hands and send them to powder while they take off their shirts and pose before a tandem Dive. Good feelings don’t last super long since The Good Hands take enough shortcuts and go for classic tag team methodology to isolate Bailey early. Bailey connects with a few kicks and tries to get to his corner, but Skyler tags in and takes out Wentz. They go for some misdirection, Hotch looks for his Rolling Neckbreaker but misses, Bailey Back Body Drops Skyler onto Hotch and then Backflip Knees on the stack! Wentz gets tagged in and easily treat Skyler’s face like hackysack. Bailey lands a Golden Triangle Moonsault and handles Hotch on the outside, locomotion cradles on the inside, Skyler tries to hold the ropes but Bailey hits a Jumping Snap Kick to kick the hands away, UFO Cutter, and Wentz wins!

.@therealestwendy and @WeAreRosemary unleashed chaos this TUESDAY on @WWENXT! Is @JordynneGrace next?!

Steph De Lander walks out to get to the bottom of things with Cardona. Cardona starts off saying he owes her an apology, says sorry, but of course the rub is that he’s sorry he didn’t interfere earlier. Calls her an embarrassment. She says she’s not his property and he produces a piece of paper saying that, but in fact, he does own her. Runs down a bunch of ways he’s helped her and did everything for her and she owes him everything. She stands up for herself, but Cardona doubles down, gets in her face and goes full toxic parent or baseball coach. Steph looks about ready to cry as she’s backed in a corner, but PCO’s music hits and he comes out to do something, Cardona hides behind SDL and then runs away.

Eric Young vs Jake Something

Jake comes out and manhandles EY early on, big Body Drops, Lariats, Suplexes, Sitout Powerbomb, but EY kicks out. Jake is already annoyed and this is just his character having building frustration with all of his loses the last 4 months. Every time EY kicks out or moves, Jake gets pissed. He feeds EY into the corner, EY does the Flair Flip, Shoulder into the gut through the ropes, Five Hole Slide, and then a few Discus Forearms give EY some momentum. EY goes for the DVD, but Jake fights out, big Vader Hammers, Polish Hammer, Irish Whip but as Jake goes into the air for the Thesz Press, EY catches him and Death Valley Driver!

Only a two count, EY goes for the Macho Man Elbow, Jake cuts him off, looks for Into the Void but EY dodges and snaps off the Piledriver for the win! EY tries to bury the hatchet with a handshake, Jake shakes his hand and then after about two steps he gets pissed off and attacks EY. Into the Void! Jake looks to keep on him, but Maclin makes good on his respect and runs out for the save.

Moose & JDC vs Joe Hendry & Mike Santana

Hendry hits his intro and Santana decides to attack The System from behind as they’re distracted. Holding the ring early for Hendry and Santana, but then Josh walks down the ramp to take a seat next to his wife. See it’s totally legit.

Some early typical tag team pacing, but then the crowd favorite team goes for some quick tags, tandem offense, stereo 10 Count Punches Spot with the crowd counting along. This match has really been all Santana and Hendry, which bodes annoyingly for me, since as I said in my Emergence review, they aren’t the type of heel team that should be feeding for the 4 minutes of a match and then come back after dirty tactics. Speaking of which, JDC goes for the Eye Gouge then slaps on the Headlock and tags in Moose. Moose turns the energy up runs over Hendry a bit, but, then Hendry fires Sack of Shit into the Stalling Suplex.

Moose powders, Hendry looks to chase after him, but Lish steps in the way and it allows JDC to attack him from behind. Moose beats on him, tags back in JDC and Dango gets some solid offense in. Locks in a Guillotine Submission, Hendry looks to be fading but he powers up and Suplexes Dango, simultaneous tags! Moose and Santana square off, Santana with Chops light up Moose’s chest. Then Santana keeps up the offense and drives Moose’s face into the turnbuckles 3 times, Moose tries to turn the table on the fourth but Santana has all the fire. Clocks Moose, takes out JDC with a Draping DDT, lets Moose run him into a corner but dodges the buckles, Moose bounces out, hits the Rolling Buck Fifty! Hendry tries to fire the crowd but exchanges words with Josh Alexander. Josh hits the Low Blow on Hendry and rams him into the post. Santana with the Shot of Caffeine to connect with Josh! The System takes advantage of the extra help and distractions, JDC hangs up Santana in the ropes, Moose kicks him, lays him out, Lights Out! System wins and JDC is officially in The System.

Overall Score: 6.5/10

A few of the Emergence answers were answered and some new ones arose. Like is the Wendy Choo angle just a set up for Tuesday on NXT or will it be extended? Is Josh gonna just be playing gatekeeper for the main event? What would wrestling do if rematch clauses weren’t a trope?

You know simple questions.

But in all seriousness, since Victory Road is next week, its not like anything complicated can be set up. So rematches and simple blow off angles are definitely logical enough to get through the event before Bound for Glory build up.

Will the Premier Athletes ever catch a break?

Ariya Daivari and Tony Nese have each lost to Tomohiro Ishii, but now Josh Woods steps up! Only to get Katsuyori Shibata! Who wins this battle of former ROH Pure Champions?

Solo has felt so low, not having won in quite some time. But will he be feeling real sweet taking down Azucar? Or will Solo’s former mentor show him he still has a lot to learn?

Lady Frost speaks.

“I know I haven’t been here in ROH for a few months, but my last match? Too easy. I’m not saying that one match earns me a title shot, but a Proving Ground match? I’m willing to prove it. Red Velvet, it’s nothing personal, but you have something that I want: The Women’s World Television Championship. And I don’t know if you’ve been paying attention, but I’ve been busy traveling the world, winning tournaments, championships, all over the place. And tonight, I’m gonna prove why I deserve another one here in ROH. Trust me when I tell you, there will be no love lost, because I am Lady Frost.” Things are heating up, but will there be a cold snap here tonight?

Nick Comoroto w/ Jacoby Watts VS Lee Johnson!

The Freak Beast continues to be the fervent follower of HE, and HE is Jacoby. Will the self-aggrandizing teachings of Jacoby Watts somehow bring Comoroto success? Or can Big Shotty get a big win on his way back up the ranks?

The Code of Honor is upheld, the bell rings, and Watts suddenly needs to talk with Comoroto. Watts wants to see the fire in Comoroto’s eyes! Then Watts SLAPS Comoroto?! Comoroto gets that fire going, and he runs up at Lee! Lee dodges to CHOP, CHOP and CHOP! The fans fire up but Comoroto stops that to put Lee in the corner!

The Judge will not stand for this, and he goes right to the ring! Watts sends Comoroto, but into a SPINEBUSTER!! Then Lee gets Watts! This is what Watts gets! Lee feeds Watts to a SPINEBUSTER!! The Gavel drops, and #LeeJ stands tall! Will these two show Comoroto the truth about that snake oil salesman?

Backstage interview with Anthony Henry & BEEF.

Paul Wight is with the Workhorseman and his very excited cousin, one of the hottest rising tag teams in ROH! Henry says they’re not an official team, but Beef loudly asks what he’s talking about. Of course they’re a tag team! And they’re undefeated! Henry says yes, and Beef did great, but reminds Beef that they’re only second cousins, and by marriage. Wight says either way, this new Workhorsemen formation is doing great. What does the future look like for them? Henry says he doesn’t know, but he knows it isn’t the Workhorsemen unless it’s with JD Drake. Henry heads out and Beef asks what he means by that.

Beef hurries after Henry, still wanting to talk it out. But will the Saint of Augusta only feel right once things are back to normal?

Anthony Henry & BEEF VS Jay Lucas & Terry Yaki!

Well, the second cousins by marriage may be on different pages, but maybe being in the ring will help. Will another big win help them get things cooking? Or will things just fall apart that much quicker?

The fans cheer for “BEEF! BEEF! BEEF!” The Code of Honor is upheld, but only by Beef, and the bell rings. The teams sort out, Henry tells Beef to focus, and let him start. Beef agrees, only to tag himself in! Beef is all fired up and the fans are with him as he starts against Lucas. They tie up, Lucas waistlocks but Beef TOSSES him away!

Beef goes up, Henry BOOTS Lucas, and BEEF SPLASH! Cover, Beef & Henry win!

Winners: Anthony Henry & BEEF, by pinfall

Henry isn’t as excited as Beef is, but who is? So while they may not be the Workhorsemen, will this new combo still find their way to the top?

Spanish Announce Project VS The Iron Savages w/ Jacked Jameson!

Speaking of great combos, Angelico & Serpentico are feeling good now that they’re past grudges with Griff Garrison. But will they be bringing the good vibes to the ROH World Tag Team Championships? Or will they have to start sippin’ sauce and livin’ hoss to get past Bulk Bronson & Beefcake Boulder?

For that matter, Jacked Jameson has the mic to talk smack on the Texas bumpkins and Skinny Idiots. This crowd looks like they blow on their ice cream to cool it off. And also, that they should lay off the ice cream! Their opponents need to put it in a blender, chug it, and get their weight up so they can go from tights to trunks. But one thing you all have in common is that you’re Low T Losers! Meanwhile, these three are High T Winners, because they are taking everyone to #TiddyCity! The fans boo, but then SAP makes their entrance. The Code of Honor is upheld, and the teams sort out. Angelico starts against Bronson and the bell rings.

The fans rally as Bronson and Angelico circle. They feel things out, tie up, and go around. Angelico wrenches, wristlocks, but Bronson rolls, wrenches, and ELBOW BREAKERS! Bronson talks smack on Texas but Angelico spins, slips around, spins Bronson and wrenches the arm! The fans cheer, but Bronson fights up to squat, squat, and… ROCK Angelico with a right! The fans boo as Bronson mocks the Bernie Lean. Bronson CHOPS Angelico, whips, but Angelico ducks ‘n’ dodges to handspring through the hip toss! The fans fire up, but Bronson ducks a lariat! Angelico ducks a haymaker, Bronson avoids the kicks but not the DROPKICK!

Angelico spins up to his feet and does the Bernie Lean right! Bronson is furious, but Boulder tags in. And so does Serpentico! The fans fire up as #SNAKEMAN steps up to beefy Boulder! Serpentico pumps up, but Boulder laughs. Boulder flexes, so Serpentico flexes more! The fans cheer but Boulder pie faces Serpentico to a corner. Serpentico says hold on then, and he climbs up top. Serpentico rallies the fans as he fires up and eggs Boulder on! Boulder gets mad, storms up on Serpentico, and they tie up! Boulder brings Serpentico down to whip him to a corner. Boulder runs in, but Serpentico dodges to fire off hands and CHOPS!

Boulder just scowls, so Serpentico runs. Serpentico ducks ‘n’ dodges, but Boulder CLOBBERS him! Bronson says that’s a “flash flood!” Bronson tags in, then the Savages send Serpentico into the corner. Serpentico SUPERKICKS Boulder, BOOTS Bronson, and then RANAS Bronson into Boulder! Serpentico runs to UPPERCUT Bronson! The fans rally for SAP, but Bronson puts Serpentico on the apron. Serpentico HOTSHOTS Bronson! Bronson distracts the ref, and Jameson whips Serpentico hard into railing! The fans boo but Jameson flexes on them. Bronson goes out to drag Serpentico into the ring.

Bronson drags Serpentico around, then drops a BIG elbow! Bronson rains down fists on Serpentico, then he soaks up heat from the fans. Serpentico grabs at Bronson, but Bronson BITES Serpentico’s fingers! The fans boo again, but Bronson drags Serpentico over. Tag to Boulder, and Bronson climbs! HIP DROP! Boulder goes up, HIP DROP! The #SquatParty has squashed Serpentico, and Boulder dumps him out. Boulder distracts the ref, Jameson HIP DROPS Serpentico! The fans boo again but Jameson puts Serpentico in. Boulder storms around, runs and SPLASH DOWN! Cover, Angelico breaks it! The fans cheer but the Savages protest!

Bronson tags in, the Savages mug Serpentico. Bronson looms over Serpentico, drags him up, but fans rally as Bronson clamps on the chinlock. Serpentico endures, fights up, but Bronson thrashes the hold. Serpentico still fires body shots, but Bronson knees low. The fans rally but Bronson whips Serpentico to a corner. Serpentico dodges, slips around, and CHOPS! Bronson staggers, Serpentico reaches out, but Bronson reels him in! Bronson back suplexes, but Serpentico lands out! Serpentico slides under, UPKICKS, and hot tags Angelico! Serpentico then sets up so Angelico can use him for a FLYING LARIAT!

Bronson falls, Boulder steps in, but Angelico LARIATS! Angelico DECKS Bronson, ELBOWS Boulder, but then Bronson catches Angelico. Angelico BOOTS Boulder, and he RAMS Bronson into buckles!

The fans fire up as Angelico clinches Bronson, FLATLINER! Serpentico goes up to FROG SPLASH! Double cover, Boulder breaks it! Boulder kicks Angelico out, drags Serpentico up, and scoops to SLAM! The fans boo but Bronson climbs. Boulder Electric Chair Lifts Bronson, but Serpentico avoids the Savage Splash! Hot tag to Angelico, and SAP DUMPS Boulder out! Boulder lands on his feet, rises up, but Bronson is sent into him! Now Boulder falls, and Serpentico DIVES! He takes down Boulder & Jameson! Bronson runs up, scoops Angelico, but Angelico slips free! Shove into the GAMANGIRI, then a BOOT!

Bronson staggers, Serpentico goes up to FLYING CROSSBODY! Angelico wraps those legs up, NAVARRO DEATH ROLL!! TRIALER HITCH!! Bronson taps, SAP wins!

Winners: Spanish Announce Project, by submission

Now that’s a huge win for SAP! Will the good vibes continue until Serpentico & Angelico are golden?

ROH Women’s World Television Championship Proving Ground: Red Velvet VS Lady Frost!

The Chef heard the challenge thrown out, and she has responded! Will she find a way to cook Frost in ten minutes or less? Or will the Coldest Wrestler You Know earn herself a shot at the gold?

The Code of Honor is upheld, the bell rings, and we’re on the clock! Frost and Velvet tie up, Frost powers Velvet to a corner, but Velvet powers out of the corner.

That was truly back and forth at the end, and in the end, Velvet finds the way to win! Frost keeps the Code of Honor to show respect, but will she have to fight even harder if she wants a title opportunity? Who will get cooking with The Chef in the near future?

Backstage interview with Taya Valkyrie.

Melissa Santos is with La Wera Loca, and brings up her attack last week on both Mina Shirakawa and Rachael Ellering. Tonight, Taya faces Mina 1v1, what is she thinking? Taya says her problem was never with Rachael, that was for fun. Her issue is with Mina. Taya has been here week after week, putting out hit after hit, and this girl just thinks she can show up, smile, shake her assets and then skip on back to Japan? Does she think this is summer camp? If Mina thinks this is a vacation, then Taya can make it as miserable for her as she wants. But then in steps Mina, with a shimmy and a shake.

Mina tells Taya that if she has something to say about Mina, just say it to her face. Taya steps up and says, “No.” Mina says #EverybodyWantsMina, but tonight, she promises Taya does NOT want her. Taya says she’s done with this conversation, and takes her leave. Mina asks if Melissa wants to dance, and then they both shimmy and shake. Is the Fighting Gravure Idol going to shake things up in the ROH Women’s Division? We’ll see, in tonight’s main event!

After Diamante VS Tiara James…

The Cuban Diamond winds with a Cuban Twist, but then she beats up on Tiara just because! Until Red Velvet rushes out there! Velvet storms into the ring, Diamante dodges her, but then bails out to the ramp. Diamante says Velvet is barging into her business but Velvet says this show IS her business! Velvet storms out after Diamante now, but the ref stops these two from going any further. Velvet holds up the belt, has she just found her first challenger?

Backstage interview with Lee Johnson.

Melissa brings up the brutal attack by Comoroto & Watts, but he ended up having someone make a surprise save. How does he feel now? Lee says it is a surprise that after picking up a win, he was attacked by two cowards. Though it seems he needed to look no further than a friend, a brother, and a Judge! EJ steps in, shakes hands with Lee, and introduces himself. He is The Judge, EJ Nduka, the most powerful, the most explosive, and the most aggressive athlete to ever be ten toes down in ROH. And tonight, his boy got jumped. EJ ain’t letting that happen anymore on his watch. Will #LeeJ make sure no crime goes unpunished?

Josh Woods w/ Mark Sterling VS Katsuyori Shibata!

The rest of the Premier Athletes made light work of their opponents tonight, as “Smart” Mark wants to get out of Texas as soon as possible. But the Technical Beast will have a much bigger fight on his hands, will the team miss their flight? Or can Woods get an upset win on The Wrestler?

The Code of Honor is upheld, but tensely. The bell rings, Woods runs up, but Shibata dodges! Woods dodges back, and both men avoid kicks. The fans fire up for the standoff, and the two reset.

Woods RAMS into Shibata again and again, then sits him down. Woods stands on Shibata, digs his boots in, but lets off as the ref counts. The fans boo more, but Woods then jumps and HIP DROPS! And then HIP DROPS again! Cover, ONE!! Shibata’s tougher than all that and Woods is annoyed. Woods tells the fat idiots to shut up. Sounding like an Iron Savage here as Woods whips Shibata hard into a corner. Woods runs up to BACK BODY BLOCK! Woods goes side to side to forearm SMASH! But Shibata turns things around to fire off shots! The fans fire up, Sterling panics, but the ref counts! Shibata UPPERCUTS, then runs!

Woods fires body shots, then he SUPER ANARCHY SUPLEXES! Both men are down and the fans fire up! Woods crawls to a cover, TWO!

Woods can’t believe it, but Shibata is still in this. Woods huffs and puffs, drags Shibata up, and reels him in for a BACKBREAKER, and LARIAT! The Last Real Man taught him that, but now Woods suplexes. Shibata slips free, tot he SLEEPER!! The fans fire up as Woods flails! Woods is fading, but Sterling gets on the apron! Shibata scares him off, then goes back to Woods. Woods ducks the Penalty Kick, roll up, TWO!! Shibata catches Woods for the S T O! The fans fire up, Shibata powers up his hand, IRON CLAW!! Shibata then throws Woods into an ARMBAR!! Woods TAPS, Shibata wins!

Winner: Katsuyori Shibata, by submission

A shoutout to his friends, The Von Erichs, and The Wrestler keeps his momentum going! Will Shibata find his way back to the ROH Pure Championship? Or will he even aim for the very top?

Taya Valkyrie w/ Johnny TV VS Mina Shirakawa!

La Wera Loca thinks herself the Main Character of ROH, so a main event match is a no brainer for her! But will she prove she is TV championship ready with this match? Or will the Fighting Gravure Idol prove she’s worth even more gold than what she already has?

The Code of Honor is upheld, if only barely. The bell rings, the fans rally for Mina, and Mina dances around. Taya BOOTS her! Taya fires off forearms at the ropes, then bumps Mina off buckles. Taya CHOPS Mina, taunts Mina, then bumps her off more buckles. Taya stomps Mina, lets off as the ref counts, but then stands on Mina! The ref counts again, Taya steps away, then drags Mina up.

Mina lets go, then goes corner to corner! But Taya sends her right into buckles! Taya then puts Mina up top, CLUBS away on her, then drags her into a Tree of Woe!

VAL- NO, Mina victory rolls, steps through, FIGURE FOUR!! Taya reaches out, but Mina puts on the pressure! Taya TAPS, Mina wins!

Winner: Mina Shirakawa, by submission

The Rev-Pro Undisputed British Women’s Champion, The Queen of Southside Wrestling, and the rising star here in ROH & AEW, scores a big main event victory! Will this momentum make Mina the real main character?

My Thoughts:

A very good episode of ROH, but it was over two hours, and with quite a lot of filler when you look at it. All quality matches, even for the obvious outcomes, but I wish there were more matches moving story forward. Or more moments at least, like how Velvet showed up to stop Diamante from bullying Tiara James. Velvet got a great match out of Frost in a Proving Grounds, and yet it seems like an old rival is getting their shot first. Velvet VS Diamante will be really good, and certainly a solid defense for Velvet to build her reign. And while the story was meant to be Leyla Hirsch stepping up, she got really banged up at Death Before Dishonor, she probably needs to rest up first.

Abadon of course gets a win tonight, but no sign of Athena. I suppose this does fit story, as Athena is scared of Abadon. Good promo from Henry & Beef with Paul Wight as interviewer, and very fun match from Henry & Beef VS Lucas & Terry Yaki. I do appreciate the story of Henry not wanting to accept Beef as a tag partner, and I’m sure Beef will somehow win Henry over with continued wins in the ring, and then JD Drake returns to complicate things. I mostly don’t see this turning into a trio, Henry either chooses his old friend, or his second cousin by marriage.

Very good match from Lee with Comoroto, and good win for Lee with literally using Watts against Comoroto. But at the same time, of course they attack Lee back, and I like the move of EJ Nduka on Lee’s side. EJ’s been doing great in his squash match wins, and now this story will help bring out more of his skills. EJ Nduka is literally big, he will be big in ROH, and maybe Lee’s first title under AEW & ROH is the tag titles alongside The Judge. Really fun match from SAP VS Iron Savages, great win for SAP, and maybe they can start building towards the tag titles. The Kingdom hasn’t been on ROH in a minute, though, they’re too busy being Roddy’s sidekicks again. Maybe Taven & Bennett can show up in the episodes after All Out to get on a new story.

Good stuff from Shibata and Woods, but of course Shibata wins. Premier Athletes changed up their presentation, but it hasn’t changed a thing for them, not really sure what they’re to do to ever get going. And then a good promo from Taya and Mina to hype up their match, and then a great match for the main event. I figured Mina would win, she’s building herself up now that she’s going to be in AEW & ROH more. This can all build towards a story with Mariah May. With them both being champions right now, Mina could suggest a Two Woman Power Trip where they grab up as many titles as they can, but surely THE AEW Women’s World Championship will pit them against each other, and that will be a killer match.

My Score: 8.6/10
