BRM Reviews the 9/20/2014 ROH (great!)

[Big Red Machine]

DANIELS & KAZ PROMO- they explain their crappy new tag team name, "The Addiction."

THE ADDICTION vs. THE KINGDOM (w/Maria Kanellis)- 6.5/10
Great babyface vs. heel stuff. The crowd was really into it.

Man... those Jay Lethal Health Alert Hotline commercials will never cease to make me laugh.

SILAS YOUNG PROMO- okay

CAPRICE COLEMAN PROMO- awesome.

ROH WORLD TITLE MATCH: Michael Elgin(c) vs. Silas Young- 7.5/10
Silas Young cut a pre-match promo to try to get his hometown fans to boo him. It didn't work.
Silas hit Elgin with a table but didn't get DQed, but other than that, this was a great match. Unfortunately for Silas, though, it was only a great match in a spot where he really could have elevated himself to be something more than a midcard dork. He didn't deliver an awesome match here. He didn't deliver an awesome match in either of his matches with Steen. He hasn't delivered an awesome match yet in ROH, and that's not good, because awesome matches are what ROH was built on, and how it markets itself.

A great show from ROH. More importantly, it was yet another great show from ROH. After these last few weeks of TV, I will definitely be ordering Death Before Dishonor XII: Night 1 when it comes out on DVD. Who knows. Maybe the seeing the entire match commercial-free will make the Elgin vs. Silas match better.

STUPID ANNOUNCER QUOTES:
1. Caprice Coleman (during the Addiction vs. Kingdom match)- "Two champions in the ring, going at it."
NONE of these four men is a champion.
