BRM Reviews the 2/23/2013 ROH

[Big Red Machine]

KEVIN STEEN PROMO- AWESOME! And expository, too! Steen is now officially a babyface again. I am assuming that SCUM will be attacking him this weekend at the 11th Anniversary Show.

VIDEO PACKAGE TO HYPE UP TAVEN AND THOMAS- decent. The words and the video package itself was good, but neither one of these guys seems to have too much in the charisma department.

CAPRICE COLEMAN & CEDRIC ALEXANDER PROMO- very good.

TOP PROSPECT TOURNAMENT FINALS: Matt Taven vs. Tadarius Thomas- 6/10
Hmm… interesting finish.

11th ANNIVERSARY SHOW BUILD- all good.

JAY LETHAL PROMO- good

FISH, O’REILLY, & STRONG PROMO- good

THE AMERICAN WOLVES & MICHAEL ELGIN vs. BOBBY FISH, KYLE O’REILLY, & RODERICK STRONG- 7.25/10
The commercials really made me feel like I missed a lot of action in this match. I’m eh on who took the pin here, although I guess it helps build to that match a bit, based on the earlier promos. Personally, though, I would have had this go to a draw.

Overall, a great show from ROH, and a very good go-home show for the 11th Anniversary Show.
