Welcome to my Ring of Honor Wrestling Review. With just a little less than a month to Final Battle, things are starting to take shape.
This weeks episode starts off with a recap of last weeks main event as usual. I like the highlights of the match as it did an even better job of telling the story than the actual episode. Truth Martini on commentary was a big part of my enjoyment of that match for me also.
On this show we will get a rematch of Jay Lethal and El Gererico. Lethal won the TV title form Generico 8 weeks ago. Lethal had to use extra time to get the win, so this match should be good.
The Briscoe Brothers take on Coleman and Alexander next. The Briscoes are focused on Final Battle. They had to fight to get the title shot that management didn't want them to have. They don' think much of Coleman and Alexander. Coleman and Alexander look to be a team on the rise. I like Coleman on the Mic.
The Briscoe Brothers vs Caprice Coleman & Cedric Alexander
Coleman and Alexander and taking it to the Briscoes early on. The Briscoes start to turn things around. They are angry and push the ref out of the way and get disqualified. WGTT comes out with chairs and chase the Briscoes off. No Contest
Jim Cornette is on next talking about Final Battle. He interviews Davey Richards and he is ready to end this feud he has with Eddie Edwards.
Sean Casey & Raphael Constantine vs "Unbreakable" Michael Elgin Handicap Match This is a squash match in every way. Elgin does shake their hands before the match and is all business. Truth Martini joins commentary for a few minutes to say they wanted this match. They wanted to show how much of a monster Elgin is. Well they do prove their point.Elgin does a few things that are quite impressive. Including a Double Alabama Slam Winner: Michael Elgin via Double Alabama Slam. This is as must see as a squash match gets.
Jim Cornette has an offer for Kevin Steen. He wants Steen, his lawers, Jimmy Jacobs, and Steve Corino. to all meet him in the ring next week. The offer will be made then.
INSIDE RING OF HONOR
They do a pretty good job of introducing Dan "The Beast" Severn. His many accomplishment are impressive and he is still in good shape. Edwards and Severn explain their side of things. Eddie thinks that Kyle O'Reilly is stirring the pot, make trouble where there is none. Severn feels Davey knows too much about Eddie. Things will be different next time. Roderick Strong on the other hand has his own training camp going. While Davey and Eddie are training harder and harder he is doing his own thing. At final Battle he will face a surprise opponent. He want to steal the thunder from the main event.
El Generico vs Jay Lethal World Television Championship Match Before the match Brutal Bob and Mike Bennett come down to the ring with chairs and snacks. they plan on getting a close look at this match. Before things get started Lethal kicks over Mike's popcorn. These two are putting on a decent match, but Lethal is dragging. He isn't looking to good. Coming back from the break. Letha is in control. He took advantage of a missed high risk maneuver by Generico. One thing I am noticing is Lethal may be able to be pinned when he puts his opponent in a certain submission hold. Mike Bennett, takes the TV Belt and puts it on his waist. The time limit clock is ticking down and they may have to have another draw. Lethal rolls out of the ring and Bennett shows him the belt. Lethal knock him out. Lethal almost finishes Generico off but Bennett interferes. Time runs out. Generico want more time but there is no more. Time Limit Draw
Next week Young Bucks vs Future Shock
