BRM Reviews the 5/10/2014 ROH

[Big Red Machine]

MIKE POSEY vs. R.D. EVANS (w/Veda Scott & "Ramon")- 4/10

THE FISH TANK- LIVE!
Their special guest was Michael Elgin. They ask him mullet questions. He makes fun of the way they are dressed and makes fun of them for losing the tag titles. The result of this will be a match when we come back from commercial.

BRISCOES PROMO- Jay demands that Matt Hardy give back what belongs to him (his custom title). I've got to disagree with Jay here. He was touting that as the "Real ROH World Title" and put it up for grabs in a match which he lost. It's not his anymore.

reDRagon vs. RAYMOND ROWE & HANSON- DUD!
The way Elgin set this up came off as almost heelish. The #1 contenders to the tag titles get beaten up, then run away for an intentional count-out. Combine this with the babyfaces being heelish set-up, and you get a DUD.

COLE, BENNETT, & MARIA PROMO- decent
reDRagon get in their car and run away- HILARIOUS
To be fair, it wasn't actually "their car." Kyle informed us that it was actually his mom's van... and, being a good heel, he parked it in a handicap spot. Bobby tries to General Lee it, but Kyle wasn't quite prepared and assumed Bobby would be going in the rear door, so he winds up driving away with the rear door opened and Bobby fish's legs flailing around out the passenger's seat window.

KEVIN STEEN & THE BRISCOES vs. MATT HARDY, ADAM COLE, & MICHAEL BENNETT (w/Maria Kanellis)-6.75/10
Hardy has redecorated what was formerly Jay Briscoe's "Real ROH World Title" with a big sticker of his own face and hand signal.
The match was pretty good, but I still expect more from an ROH main event. At least they finally let Cole beat someone, as he got to pin Mark cleanly here. After the match they had Steen get the best of the heels to build up to his title shot at Global Wars.

A decent show from ROH.
