BRM Reviews the 9/2/2015 ROH

[Big Red Machine]

JAY BRISCOE vs. ADAM PAGE (w/the Decade)- no rating, decent segment. I’d have called it a good segment if the DQ had been for Colby hitting Jay with the crutch instead of the second weapon shot, which was Page with the chair. Jay gets beaten down. Mark comes out to make the save, but not before Jay eats Page’s finisher onto a pile of chairs.

DALTON CASTLE RESPONDS TO SILAS YOUNG’S CHALLENGE- FANTASTIC!
He tells Silas he will “come crashing down on you like a thousand-foot wave from the mighty sea of Poseidon.” Dalton definitely looks like a guy who would know a thing or two about the seas.
Castle agrees to put his boys on the line… but only if Silas agree to the following stipulation: If Castle wins, SILAS MUST BECOME ONE OF HIS BOYS!

CAPRICE COLEMAN vs. CEDRIC ALEXANDER (w/Veda Scott)- 6.25/10
The match was good, but they had too much stuff happening on the outside at once so the cameraman missed the most important shot, which was Moose taking the wrench away from Cedric. Cedric tried to attack Moose after the match but Moose saw it coming and blocked it by knocking Cedric out with the wrench.
Nana came out to celebrate with Moose. He also handed Caprice an envelope. Caprice looked very confused.

CHEESEBURGER vs. “BRUTAL” BOB EVANS- 5.5/10
Last time out they went to a no-contest after a CRAZY table bump… so this time they’re just having a regular match again?!
So… I guess they’re building to a tables match. Cheeseburger is REALLY over in Baltimore.

ROH TV TITLE MATCH: Jay Lethal(c) (w/the House of Truth) vs. Hanson- 6.75/10
Hanson kicks out of a finisher at one for no real reason (and after a low blow, too), but they made it up to me by calling back to the finish of their Survival of the Fittest qualifier that earned Hanson this title shot.

CLOSING STUFF- we get a gab-fest featuring reDRagon, Lethal, Truth, and Roddy to build up upcoming title matches.

The main event was sub-par but I thought this was still a good episode of ROH. They have really started to build up All-Star Extravaganza VII. Both singles titles challenges were mentioned, and we got the stips for Silas vs. Castle and some more build towards the almost certain to be announced Cedric vs. Moose match.
