Cool! It would be interesting to see if they give Dalton The cup or if Cody and Castle both cost each other their matches and we see Flip or Lethal winning.

No, not as of yet. They have given meet and greet details as of 10/23 and no other matches.

Remaining announced talent:

ROH Tag Champions: MCMG of Shelley & Sabin
Jay Briscoe
Nick Jackson
Hangman Page
Silas Young
Bully Ray

Got to think besides 7 tournament matches and the Tag Title Match (Guns-Bullet Club?) and Silas vs. Cheeseburger or Romantic Touch?

No he isn't. Talents outside the cup are MCMG, Silas, Bully, Jay Briscoe, Page, Nick Jackson and the Dawgs.

Cody introduced his In-Laws to the crowd, who are from the Metro-Detroit area.
In Shenanigans, Cody was pinned by his Niece-in-Law Emily in the middle of the ring.

After intermission, Silas Young said he was granted a qualifying Cup match.

Silas Young def Cheeseburger to advance (for the spot Cody or Daniels would have had)

ROH World Tag Team Titles Triple Threat
Motor City Machine Guns def The Dawgs (Rhett Titus and Will Ferrara) and Hangman Page and Nick Jackson to retain

The crowd looks great which is awesome to see, hopefully that will happen again if this happens again, it shows it's not just the Bullet Club or Kenny Omega that brings the crowd.

The decission for Castle to pin everyone for me is a very good one, really helps him in his build with his momemtum which could be the story of why he looses in the end. The journey brings him there but it just isn't enough, but the experience of it all helps him win say the TV title later on and then he can move on become champ later next year.

Great crowd and very good feedback on Twitter and Instagram. It's good to see ROH selling a good house and putting on a great show with just 4 matches announced. But hey, ROH hasn't got any buzz of popularity outside Bullet Club ahahah.

Cody and Daniels going to a draw gets Cody out oft he tournament without him having to lose, but why in G-d's name was CHEESEBURGER given a spot in a qualifier when literally anyone else on the card- even Ferrara, would have made more sense? Personally, I'd have had Silas vs. Jackson be the qualifier, have MCMG beat Rhett & Ferrara, and have Page beat up on Cheeseburger.

Also, it would have been nice if they had announced in advance that there would be a four-way elimination finals. I think every single person here expected a more standard tournament structure. It's not like this detracts from my enjoyment of the show itself or anything, but I think it creates a more legitimate feel for the company to lay out all of the rules in advance of the show.

Seems like a really decent crowd, especially considering the location.

They've posted a video with the post match from Daniels vs Cody:

I thought this would mean that the VOD show is already up, but no, it isn't.
