Steen/Elgin is a darkhorse match to me, it can either be really good or really meh. Hopefully it's just a straight up wrestling match so they can tell a story without all of the excess hardcore spots to work around. If Elgin doesn't go over here I see Roddy costing Elgin the strap, setting up a match between the two at Final Battle 2012.
Adam Cole vs. Eddie Edwards will no doubt be a very solid title match between two of the most consistent talents on the roster. If I'm" expecting any match on the card to deliver it'll definitely be this one. Edwards will make Cole look good here. Mike Bennett vs. Mike Mondo, I really couldn't care less but at the very least, this match does have build behind and hopefully it has a satisfying blowoff. |

Didn't Briscoes lose to Jacobs/Corino in the Semis at DBD? How does that entitle them to a title shot over Coleman/Alexander who reached the other semi and didn't actually lose to the champs? Kayfabe wise. Real reason is obviously Briscoes get preferential treatment because DEM BOYZ BEEN DERE SINCE DAY ONE.
Seems as though they're pulling out all their big matches for this show. |

The Briscoes lost to Charlie Haas and Rhett Titus, Seabs. SCUM faced Coleman and Alexander in the semis.
As for this show, I have mixed emotions toward it. I'm pumped for Steen/Elgin but not much else just yet. I don't think Elgin's ready for the strap yet, either. He connects with the fans but Steen is just too red hot right now. Elgin is the future of ROH, honestly, but his promo work at this point is nonexistent because Truth's been his mouthpiece. I'd like to see him establish more character and cut a few solid promos before taking the title, either off Steen or someone else. But most likely Steen. I want a lengthy reign out of Steen. He's moving merchandise and selling shows, so business-wise what they're doing makes sense (for once). I'm also intrigued by his story with Cornette, who's throwing every challenger imaginable his way to try and take him out. It gives them a reason to inflate his title defense numbers as opposed to, "Welp, he's the champ, he should be defending at every show." The geek side of me enjoys a ton of successful retentions, since that's what a bunch of the old ROH greats did. Plus, out of personal interest, title matches are infinitely more interesting to me than, say, an inconsequential tag team main event where the story doesn't progress. |

It's a holding pattern match since I don't think they have any plans for Lethal and his "Killer Instinct" after he loses his match with Steen & they're just re-establishing what they want to do with Davey. Don't care about it but it should be solid.

Roderick Strong vs. Tardarius Thomas could potentially be the sleeper match of the night. Looking forward to checking that out.
