I agree with this. Very different match from their other ones, but not in a bad way.

ROH 6th Anniversary
Aries - Go Shiozaki - ****1/4-1/2
Nigel - Danielson - ****1/2
FIP match may also just about make it at 4*

Very fun show overall btw.

Aries and Go did a terrific job. Loved the early bits with Aries avoiding the chops like hell.

Nigel and Danielson are pretty much incapable of having a bad match with each other...Nigel as a full blown heel is terrific.
They hated him so much, that if Danielson won the match it'd probably cause a riot.

Not my favourite of their matches (by quite a margin) and not MOTY as far as i'm concerned, but still a great match.

Also, Strong pretty much killing Necro twice was quite the spectacle...

Agreed.

Of the 7 matches they have had, i'm sure i've rated everyone of them ****+.

I was watching that with some (non-wrestling fan) friends and we were laughing like Hell at the finish there. Good times.

Got around to watching Shingo/BxB Hulk vs KENTA/Ishimori for the second time today.

Definetly a candidate imo, great matchup with four of Japans best Junior Heavyweights. More depth then you would expect with 2 big time flyers in there, some amazing powerhouse stuff from KENTA and Shingo aswell.
****1/4

Dragon Gate Challenge II
El Generico and Kevin Steen vs. Naruki Doi and Masato Yoshino ****1/2

Jimmy Jacobs and Tyler Black vs. SHINGO and BxB Hulk ****

Both were great tag matches, with the Steenerico match slightly outshining the other match. My current favorite tag of the year.

ROH Dragon Gate Challenge II
Steenerico vs. Doi/Yoshino - ****1/2
Hulk/Shingo vs. Jimmy/Black - ****-****1/4
No Remorse vs. Stevens/Go/CIMA - just makes ****

Another very strong and very fun show.

Steen and Generico put on one hell of a show with Speed Muscle.

Tyler Black is very impressive.

Main Event was a bit inconsistent, with some very good bits but also some pretty average stuff.

On to SOH III....

**Taroostyles** · 05-31-2008, 12:51 PM

Just saw the Whitmer/Jacobs "I Quit" match, pretty brutal stuff for sure.

I would say **** or so on first viewing, that double spike sequence was intense stuff.
