ROH Take No Prisoners

Philadelphia Street Fight
Jay and Mark Briscoe vs. Necro Butcher and Joey Matthews ***3/4-****
-Necro with a shovel was fucking awesome

Bryan Danielson vs. Austin Aries ****1/4
-Can these 2 not have a ****+ match?

ROH World Title Match

Nigel McGuiness vs. Tyler Black - ****1/2

-This match was even more amazing then i thought it was going to be. Tyler had everything against him in the match, he had already fought a match earlier in the night, he was thrown into the ringpost before the bell causing him to have an injured shoulder the entire match and Nigel had much more big match experience then him but somehow the heart of Tyler nearly managed to get him the victory. Even knowing the result beforehand, somehow i still felt Tyler was going to win and alot of credit to Nigel in this because his heel greatness really added to the match. I didn't think anything was going to top Strong/Stevens from Redefined (except for another match between the 2) as my current MOTY but this has managed to.

ROH - Take No Prisoners

Aires/Danielson - ****1/4
Great back and forth technical wrestling showcase. These 2 work so well together its ridiculous.



Nigel/Black - ****

Now if it were the just the last 10 minutes of each match Nigel/Black would've destroyed Aires/Danielson but I just wasn't into the match at all in the beginning. It was either Nigel dominating the whole time or just talking shit to the fans.(yes I know he's a heel but it was a bit much.) I don't see the big deal about this one at all. Now granted the ending was incredible. So many near falls and it looked like there was nothing he could do to finish Black off, but as a whole I think it lacked somewhat.

edited: re-watched - took off 1/4 off Danielson/Aries.

ROH Supercard of Honor III

Wow, what a show!

Strong - Stevens
Not really a match, but who cares! Strong busting his chest open after two (2) chops was f'n insane
****-****1/4

Briscoes - AotF
The pre-match brawl was not really my cup of tea, but they still managed to have a proper match once back in the ring and pulled off a brilliant finish
****-****1/4

Steen & Generico - BxB & Shingo
Tag team greatness right here
****1/2

Nigel - Aries
I haven't seen the new PPV yet (maybe tonight) but even without that match, Nigel is having one hell of a year...
They played off the Rising Above match and did a really good job
I really thought Aries would pull it off when he hit the splash and considering i knew he wouldn't win, that's a big deal!
I'll have to rewatch the Rising above match before i can say if it beats it, but it's definitely up there with it
****1/2

DG 6-man
Your typical DG tag here. All sorts of weird and woderful stuff to end the show with a bang
****1/4-****1/2

So yeah, add in Delirious-Go and you've got a phenomenal show from top to bottom!

Good to see you enjoyed it.

Nigel has been the man this year. I've got him in 5 ****+ matches this year so far.

Guess I should really get to watching the Wrestlemania weekend shows then, right? I'm actually not entirely sure why I haven't yet.

Guess I'll also give Take No Prisoners a download as well. Black's one of my faovurites in ROH and a main event with Nigel should be (and apparently is) geat.
