BRM Reviews the 11/22/2014 ROH

[Big Red Machine]

BENNETT & MARIA SEGMENT- fun
Bennett and Maria came out wearing matching shirts that said "MR." and "MRS." and holding the Title of Love and it was really cute. Bennett cut a promo insulting the fans and talking about how disappointed he is that Nigel McGuinness does not recognize their Title of Love. Bennett issues an open challenge for the belt, and we wind up getting...

SINGLES MATCH FOR MIKE & MARIA'S TITLE OF LOVE: Michael Bennett(c) (w/Maria Kanellis) vs. The Romantic Touch- 5.5/10
A fun match, aside from RT doing a terrible job of taking the Twist of Fate.

FINAL BATTLE COMMERCIAL- good, but I was extremely surprised that they did not announce any specific matches even though we already know what they are. Also surprising was the fact that KUSHIDA's name was mentioned, but Alex Shelley's was not.

MICHAEL ELGIN vs. CAPRICE COLEMAN- no rating.
Elgin came out in street clothes and laid down so Caprice could pin him, but Caprice didn't want to win like that. Nigel then sent security out to get Elgin, at which point Elgin started to tape up his fists and get ready to fight. They went to a well-timed commercial break, and when they came back, Hanson was on his way to the ring. THIS is how you do an angle like this and make it actually look like a shoot.

JAY BRISCOE-ADAM COLE VIDEO PACKAGE- good

AJ STYLES vs. HANSON- 8/10
ROH gave Hanson a chance to prove himself in a big singles match, and he delivered.

Another great show from ROH.
