BRM Reviews the 2/21/2015 ROH (great)

Truth Martini is filling in for Steve Corino on commentary.
One fan had perhaps the basic wrestling sign I have ever seen. It was white with black lettering and said "I do not like BJ Whitmer."


ALBERTO EL PATRON vs. ACH- 7/10
A lot shorter than I thought it would be. I'm anxious to get the DVD to see the whole thing.

THE BRISCOES & ODB TRAIN ON THE FARM- they're redneck farmers. We get it.

MICHAEL ELGIN vs, MARK BRISCOE- 7/10
Elgin appears to be wearing some sort of graduation gown.
Another great match.

POST-MATCH ANGLE- the [art with Elgin and the Briscoes was very good, but when Ciampa came in (and especially when Hanson came in), it just started to feel like self-parody.

ROH TV TITLE MATCH: Jay Lethal(c) (w/the House of Truth) vs. Roderick Strong- 7.75/10, but...
They apparently edited out an entire segment in the middle where we got an initial finish that was somehow overturned and Alberto showed up and convinced Lethal to agree to the match being restarted and it was all very confusing. That being said, they did plug the fact that you could see the whole thing by buying the soon-to-be-available VOD or DVD (which, after this episode of TV, I will certainly be doing).

POST MATCH BRAWLS- two of them with this quick editing was too many. Roddy and Whitmer had a short brawl backstage that was broken up by the wrestlers in the locker room while Lethal and Alberto had one in the ring, which Alberto won.

Another great show from ROH, plus it has gotten them at least one DVD sale, so good job!
