Overall, it was a great show with some terrific matches and
memorable moments.

The show started off with some skinny guy (I believe Pelle Primeau)
coming out to berate the crowd a little which triggered Samoa Joe's
music but instead of Joe coming out, it was Morishima who proceeded
to pretty much kill poor little Primeau.

Match #1: Delirious def. Adam Pearce
This was a fun little opener, but pretty much all Delirious matches
are fun to watch. The end of this match came when Pearce ran into
Shane Hagadorn, who was standing on the apron, which allowed
Delirious to finish him off for the victory.

Match #2: SHIMMER tag match
To be honest, the only woman I really knew in this match was Allison
Danger and I know that her team won. Sorry guys, I don't follow
SHIMMER.

Match #3: Jack Evans def. Shingo, Jimmy Jacobs and Xavier in the 4
way fray
I don't know why Davey Richards was taken out of this match, but for
some reason he was and he was replaced by former ROH Champion,
Xavier. Xavier got a nice reception when he first came out, but he
soon got eliminated by Shingo which prompted the crowd to
chant "Thanks for coming!" and "Hit the showers!" Gotta love that
crowd. Shingo was stiffing the shit out of people and Jack Evans was
absolutely amazing. Seeing him perform all those crazy moves live
was incredible. My girlfriend instantly fell in love with Jack and
thought he was just about the coolest wrestler ever. The match ended
when Jack hit the 630 splash on Shingo and that move is so pretty
live, even better than when watching it on TV.

Match #4: BJ Whitimer def. Brent Albright in a Tables are Legal match
This right here was the match of the night, at least in my view.
When a match starts off with someone being hurled off the top rope
through a table at ringside (which is exactly what Albright did to
BJ), you know you're in for a sick match. Some of the crazy shit in
this match included Albright back suplexing BJ off the top rope
through a table on the floor, Brent throwing BJ from the ring
through three tables that were stacked on top of each other on the
floor, and BJ belly to belly suplexing Albright off the top rope
through two tables set up in the ring (which ended the match). This
match was just absolutely brutal and very fun to watch.

Samoa Joe then came out and addressed the fans. The fans repeatedly
chanted, "Please don't go!" Joe thanked all the fans for all the
support they've given him and put New York over as a great place to
put on a show at. This was a great moment as the crowd chanted Joe's
name and the emotion felt genuine. Nigel McGuiness then came out to
try to talk to Samoa Joe about Morishima coming out to his music
earlier and tried to defend Morishima. Joe wasn't having any of that
and soon the two of them started to brawl and had to be pulled apart.

Match #5: Christopher Daniels and Matt Sydal def. Austin Aries and
Roderick Strong to retain the ROH tag titles
This right here was definitely the disappointment of the night.
Don't get me wrong, it wasn't a bad match, but people had such high
expectations for it that the fans started to turn on the match. The
match started off very slow and picked up by the end, but most of
the crowd was out of the match by the time it started
to get good with some even chanting, "End this match!" Austin Aries
also seemed to legitimately hurt his leg as he was limping
considerably after a blown spot, but he was a trooper and finished
the match. So maybe he was just selling the leg, but if so that's
one of the best sell jobs I've ever seen because he looked like he
was in some serious pain. The highlight of this match for me was a
fan who had a disturbing obsession with Homicide (chanting his name
all night, saying 5150 about a million times, etc) starting to
berate Christopher Daniels all throughout the match and another fan
saying the opposite of anything that guy just said. Example: The
first guy would say, "Daniels, you're the worst, you suck!" and the
second guy would say, "Christopher Daniels is the greatest wrestler
who ever lived!" This went on for about 10 minutes and was immensely
entertaining. Anyhow, the match ended when Daniels hit the Best
Moonsault Ever to retain the tag titles.

Match #6: Nigel McGuiness and Colt Cabana def. The Briscoes
This was an awesome match that featured some great interaction
between both teams. The Briscoes are just great and I heard one fan
say that he's never seen a bad Briscoes match and when I thought
about it, I had to agree with him. This was no difference as you
really had no idea who was going to win. The ending came when Jay
went for the Jay Driller, but got countered and had Nigel McGuiness
nearly take his damn head off with a vicious clothesline. Great,
entertaining match.

Match #7: Samoa Joe def. Takeshi Morishima
This match started impromptu style when Joe came out to attack Nigel
after his match, but that brought out Morishima. These two had an
absolutely brutal, stiff match that wasn't exactly the classic that
Joe/Kobashi was, but was still a fantastic match. Joe was able to
get the big man up for a muscle buster, but Morishima kicked out it.
Morishima delivered some wicked suplexes on Joe, dropping on his
head a bunch of times and in turn making my girlfriend turn from a
Joe fan to a Morishima fan. Damn traitor. The match ended when Joe
locked on the clutch and Morishima passed out. Great match,
definitely worth seeing.

Match #8: Homicide def. Jimmy Rave to retain the ROH title
The crowd was solidly behind Homicide for this one, but there were
quite a few Jimmy Rave fans in the crowd, much to my surprise. Rave
actually looked very good in this match and looked like he might
pull off the major upset when he locked on the heel hook in the
middle of the ring on Homicide. Homicide was able to escape the hook
due to interference from Julius Smokes and shortly thereafter hit
the Cop Killa to retain his title. Very good match that certainly
wasn't a classic match, but was still very entertaining.

Overall this was a great show to attend. There were a bunch of great
matches, memorable moments and a fantastic crowd. The crowd
definitely made this a great experience as the in-ring action was
top notch, but I was also dying from laughter due to some of the
things the crowd would randomly yell. A very fun time, I'd
definitely recommend to attend an ROH show anytime it comes through
your town.
