ROH World Television Title Match
Samoa Joe (c) vs. Tony Deppen

A fine 6 minute match. Deppen went on full attack mode and Joe looked like a beast countering it most of the time with some big moves. Nothing amazing but a fun quick match. 

3 / 5

Six Man Tag Team Match
Dalton Castle & The Boys (Brandon & Brent) vs. Cody Chhun, Guillermo Rosas & Marcus Kross

Pretty much a squash for Castle and The Boys. I imagine they’ll go for or get the trios belts soon since they are an ideal choice. 

2.5 / 5

Tag Team Match
La Faccion Ingobernable (Dralistico & Rush) (w/Jose The Assistant) vs. Spanish Announce Project (Angelico & Serpentico) (w/Luther)

A bit of a long squash as Rush and Dralistico were never going to lose. They could be a good team though. Serpentico also had some bad looking moments here as if he forget where or what he was suppose to do next. 

2 / 5

Singles Match
Trish Adora vs. Billie Starkz

The crowd was into Billy here but this was a squash mostly. Adora looked good here as did Billy but just not sure if Adora will become a star in ROH like she almost did before. 

2 / 5

Tag Team Match
Jake Crist & Man Scout vs. The Trustbusters (Ari Daivari & Slim J) (w/Mark Sterling)

Short boring squash. Jake Crist deserves a better match. 

1 / 5

ROH Pure Title Match
Wheeler Yuta (c) vs. Timothy Thatcher

A really solid match here as expected. Thatcher rules and should be in ROH and AEW a lot more. It does show the flaws with the Pure Rules title though. The matches while good never become super exciting because the rules cause constant pacing issues. 

3.5 / 5

Tag Team Match
Rhett Titus & Tracy Williams vs. Aussie Open (Kyle Fletcher & Mark Davis)

A fantastic tag match. Nonstop action and the pacing was fantastic . Aussie Open could take the ROH belts and be great with them. Williams and Titus looked fantastic here as well. 

4 / 5

Singles Match
Eddie Kingston vs. Ben Dejo

Squash

.5 / 5

ROH Women’s World Title Match
Athena (c) vs. Willow Nightingale

A really good main event. Willow is cheered heavy as a face and Athena is finally starting to feel like a real heel. The crowd was into this match right away and it had some close falls. Not sure why they did this match now though instead of at the PPV coming up but it was a good main event none the less. Wonder if Willow will eventually take the belt since there isn’t many other credible threats to the belt. 

4 / 5
