BRM Reviews the 6/9/2012 ROH

[Big Red Machine]

MATT TAVEN vs. MICHAEL ELGIN (w/Truth Martini)- 5.5/10
A good little match. Taven got enough stuff in to look impressive while Elgin was still able to dominate most of the match, as he should.
On commentary, during this match, Truth Martini issues a challenge to the Briscoes, saying that he has a tag team of guys whom "I can't even say their names- that's how dangerous they are." Apparently Lord Voldermort has decided to join the House of Truth.

EDDIE EDWARDS INTERVIEW-not good. Eddie's promo was good, but Veda Scott's question was dumb. How could this match against Davey possibly be more important than the other three, which were for the TV Title and then the World Title twice.

HAAS & BENJAMIN PROMO- Haas was obnoxious, but that was mainly do to the poor angle than to Charlie himself. Shelton was awesome, though. The stuff with Rhett & Kenny was great, too.

"COLLUSION BETWEEN THE EMBASSY & THE HOUSE OF TRUTH" SEGMENT- great

JAY LETHAL PROMO- decent

EDDIE EDWARDS vs. DAVEY RICHARDS- 8/10
An awesome match, but I really didn't like the finish. I don't think it helped anybody in any way. Davey has a title shot in a few weeks. Let him go over clean. This whole thing with Eddie trying to get a title shot by facing former champs is dumb, anyway, because he already has one coming up, which Cornette just gave to him for no other reason than that Corny wants the belt off of Steen and he thinks Eddie might be able to do it.

Overall, a great episode of ROH
