So it looks like Joey Ryan faced Kikutaro!! One of my favorite wrestlers.

Cody faced the Bruiser for the ROH World title. I think we can guess the result of that one.

The Briscoes showed up, not sure exactly what went down.

All I can really find.

So Beer City Bruiser is the new Champion?

So, from what I've seen in Twitter, yesterday was a little crowd. It's normal being a Sunday in Oklahoma against Survivor Series. I like Martinez winning. They've been building him slow and this victory will help him a lot to begin 2018 as a credible challenger. With this victory, too, I can see either Cody or Dalton winning at Final Battle.

Does the "up against Survivor Series" argument work now that the WWE Network exists, though? If the PPV is totally on-demand, I think people would go to the live show in their area and then just watch Survivor Series the next day or something. I got tickets to last night's Rangers game and that's what I'm doing.

hey pal there were at least 80 people at that EWA show back in January 2012. I think I won the 50/50 raffle that night. I remember Dalton had Taven in a side headlock on the mat and told Taven his hair smelled nice.

The PPV probably didn't help though. It is also a growing trend where no one is tweeting results and one would think for the end of a tournament, someone would have decided to from a large crowd.

The other time ROH was in Oklahoma they drew good crowds. ROH has had a great attendance numbers this year so I think one of the main reasons (not the only one or an excuse) is the WWE PPV. Not for the traditional PPV, but most people like watching shows live, not on demand, IMO.

With an average attendance like that, ROH can afford to take the occasional hit like in Oklahoma City. Punishment was probably the best person they could choose on their entire roster. I'm really glad how much 2017 has changed his career trajectory.

Dave Meltzer on Kaz's injury:
Frankie Kazarian is at home and still in some pain after a neck injury from an Indy taker on Friday night's ROH show in San Antonio. At this point the nature of the injury is still to be determined.
