ROH Live and Let Die
ROH Live and Let Die (6/8/2013)- Columbus, OH
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ii1tc493bZM
ADAM COLE vs. CAPRICE COLEMAN- 5.75/10
Good opener. Coleman pulls off a dive that must be seen to be believed and Corino’s over the top love of Cole is HILARIOUS (â€"I wish he would do commentary with us instead of that icky Mariaâ€). Cole almost doesn’t shake hands after the match, but then decides to shake after all.
Q.T. MARSHALL vs. RODERICK STRONG- 5.75/10
Very fun match. Marshall’s best so far. At one point he thought he had a view to a kill on Roddy… so he went to put him away with THE PEOPLE’S ELBOW! Never thought I would see that in an ROH ring.
After the match, Adam Cole comes out and apologizes to Roddy for not shaking his hand after his loss in San Antonio last week. Roddy accepts the apology and they shake hands.
DAVEY RICHARDS vs. CEDRIC ALEXANDER- 8.5/10
Can you say â€"breakout match?†This was fantastic! There were a few amazingly close nearfalls here, and they had me 100% buying that Cedric had a shot at winning the match.
PROVING GROUND MATCH: ROH World Tag Team Champions reDRagon vs. Adrenaline Rush (Tadarius Thomas & ACH)- 6.75/10
HOOPLA UNCUT WITH SPECIAL GUEST: CHEESEBURGER- Truth introduces some girls from a local Gold’s Gym, then sends them to the back. He hypes â€"A Night of Hoopla,†and tells Cheeseburger that he can come to A Night of Hoopla if he tells Truth whether or not he got a boner while kissing Maria Kanellis at Border Wars 2013[/i]. Cheeseburger admits that he does, so Truth has Scarlett and the other regular unnamed brunette Hoopla Hottie give him a short lap dance. Cheeseburger asks Truth if he can kiss the Hoopla Hotties, and Truth says he can… if he, too, takes his pants off. As Cheeseburger goes to take his pants off, Rhino shows up and Gores him. Then Kevin Steen comes out and we get…
KEVIN STEEN vs. RHINO (w/Steve Corino)- 4.5/10
Very disappointing brawl. After the match Steve Corino and Matt Hardy jump Steen and Hardy gives him a Twist of Fate to build up to their match at Best in the World 2013.
MARK BRISCOE vs. MATT HARDY (w/Steve Corino)- 4.5/10
After the heel finish, we got a brawl that transitioned into…
NO RULES MATCH: BJ Whitmer, Michael Elgin, & Jay Lethal vs. SCUM (Rhett Titus, Cliff Compton, & Jimmy Jacobs) (w/Steve Corino)- 5.5/10
Very disappointing.
ROH WORLD TITLE MATCH: Jay Briscoe(c) vs. Eddie Edwards- 8/10
Great match. Eddie did a good job working over Jay’s leg with the Achilles Lock and at one point was even stomping on Jay’s head at the same time, but Jay decided to die another day and kept on fighting. Jay then forearms the living daylights out of Eddie and puts him away with the Jay Driller. After the match, SCUM come out and Corino cuts a promo building up to the Steel Cage Warfare match and Hardy’s title shot.
A very up and down show from ROH. Davey vs. Alexander and the ROH World Title match were both awesome, but the rest of the card disappointing.
