BRM Reviews ROH Take No Prisoners

[Big Red Machine]

ROH Take No Prisoners (3/16/2008)- Philadelphia, PA

FOUR CORNER SURVIVAL MATCH IN WHICH THE WINNER WILL GET AN ROH WORLD TITLE SHOT LATER TONIGHT: Claudio Castagnoli vs. Go Shiozaki vs. Delirious vs. Tyler Black- 6.25/10

JIMMY JAOCBS PREECHING PRE-TAPED SEGMENTS- I enjoyed seeming Jimmy give inspirational speeches spreading the Age Of The Fall gospel.

RODERICK STRONG vs. KEVIN STEEN- 6.75/10

STREET FIGHT: The Age Of The Fall (The Necro Butcher & Joey Matthews) (w/Lacey) vs. The Briscoe Brothers (w/Daizee Haze)- 8/10.
Crazy violence!

THE LARRY SWEENEY SHOW- GREAT

ERICK STEVENS vs. BRENT ALBRIGHT (w/Sweet N' Sour Inc.)- 6/10

ROH WORLD TAG TEAM TITLE MATCH: The No Remorse Corps (Davey Richards & Rocky Romero)(c) vs. The Vulture Squad (Ruckus & Jigsaw)- 7/10
Spotty fun. I cannot get used to seeing Jigsaw without his mask on.

THE HANGMEN 3 TAKE OUT BJ WHITMER: Why couldn't this have been done on-air, rather than as a recap?

AUSTIN ARIES vs. BRYAN DANIELSON- 9/10. AMAZING!

ROH WORLD TITLE MATCH: Nigel McGuinness(c) vs. Tyler Black- 9.5/10. An AMAZINGLY hot crowd and some amazingly
close hearfalls. Really made you think that Tyler was going to win the belt.

Bonus Matches:
DAVEY RICHARDS vs. DINGO- 4.5/10

THE VULTURE SQUAD (Ruckus & Jigsaw) (w/Julius Smokes & Mercedes Martinez) vs. THE HANGMEN 3 (Adam Pearce & BJ Whitmer) (w/Shane Hagadorn)- 4.5/10

RUCKUS/BLKOUT BRAWL- great

GHC HEAVYWEIGHT TAG TEAM TITLE MATCH (from Pro Wrestling Noah 3/2/2008)- Takshi Sugiura & Naomichi Marufuji(c) vs. The Briscoe Brothers- 9/10
