Those are some of the lowest ratings I've seen from the show.

I personally loved everything about Black/Aries and Generico/Richards. I don't think I would go anything lower than 4* for each.

same here i easily thought tyler vs a double was 4 and 3 quarter stars

Tyler Black vs. Austin Aries vs. Roderick Strong (The Big Bang) - ****
Awesome except for the finish and Black breaking up submission attempts. Minor overkill towards the end too but overall it was excellent.

Davey Richards vs. El Generico (8th Anniversary Show) - ****
Beautifully worked with strong emphasis on Generico's character. Props to them for not trying to overdo it with a million false finishes.

Black breaking up submissions made sense imo. He wanted to beat Strong and those were the times he was easy pray. Him stopping Aries from eliminating him made sense as well. Honestly, everything in that match was pretty prefect. I'm perplexed I am that only one that has really given it ****1/2

Nice showcase for Strong. Some of the chops were fucking sick.

I guess I can understand him stopping Aries from eliminating Strong because he wanted to beat him but what about him stopping Strong from eliminating Aries? I'm pretty sure Strong had Aries in the Boston Crab center ring and Black broke it up.

And the finish was plain bad. Otherwise I loved it.

[Caponex75]

Could see I wasn't really understanding with what I was putting down.

Black would go after Strong while he had submissions on Aries because he was vulnerable to damn near anything in them. He would go out of his way to try to eliminate Strong to prove a point and it would only be sensible to save him in such moments if it meant proving to everyone that he could actually beat Strong.

Aries one was pretty obvious as he really was the same way and he wanted to beat the guy that beat him for his soulmate(The ROH World title). Strong having Tyler beat with the Gibson driver and Aries breaking it up made SO much sense despite Aries sneaky character. Really fantastic storytelling throughout the match and the finish fucked up my rating. I honestly have problems with people breaking up possible eliminations but all those in that match up made total sense.

[Saint Dick]

idk man, never thought about it that way but retaining the world title should have been more important to Black than proving he could beat Strong.
