I think Austin Aries may return tonight or anytime soon. He has been in talks with the Bucks and ROH, his no-compete clause has expired and now he's wrestling again in the UK. He's now in the US and he just posted this talking about his victory over ROH's star, Marty Scurll, last week in Defiant (FKA WCPW):

"Not many can out villain the #villain @MartyScurll. Nothing personal, just business. Let’s do it again sometime...somewhere. #TheTruth"

Maybe he'll a return like Hero did in 2013? It could be cool.

It may be interesting to see how things play out with Ospreay and War Machine. On the VOW podcast Lanza is saying Ospreay is rumored to be the upcoming Evolve return announcement so I wonder if he's gonna work U.S. indies soon. He also outright says that War Machine are finishing with ROH and New Japan soon.
Lol at ROH jobbing War Machine out to Coast 2 Coast on their way out, how petty.

Hopefully Ospreay is still on relatively good terms with ROH and will work for EVOLVE on the side. I don't think there is really a precedent (Hero for a few months in 2014 maybe), but I'd prefer some Ospreay to none. Since it's been over a year since his debut, he may be working tonight as a free agent, so hopefully that's a good sign they are still on good terms.

Coast 2 Coast deserves the rub and I'm sure War Machine doesn't mind putting them over.

Ospreay if he's on the way out of ROH probably is not due to being on bad terms. He's so limited to where he can work in the U.S. while under ROH contract where if he's not under contract he can potentially take more bookings and make more money.

They will not. They will air on YouTube later this month probably.

Ups and downs, but solid overall. Taven/Ospreay was better than it had any right to be, Briscoes/Bully and Dreamer felt like a letdown, disappointed that Best Friends lost, BUT SILAS AND DALTON WON!!!!

The New York crowd is a Bullet Club crowd. Non-BC matches suffer. Plus they hate MCMG. I have no idea why.

Despite all that I had a great time. Super fun show and most of the guys I wanted to win did so. Hopefully Philly is just as fun tomorrow.

Yeah, but they weren't hot for the last two matches, that were the ones with the BC. Also, I felt like The Young Bucks didn't go with everything, when they usually try to steal the show.

Hate the title changes as both just werent needed, especially for Castle he just isn't ready in ring wise, I do wonder how people will rate these title matches considering Castle has rarely had a match to steal the show or make any waves with being considered a very good match.

It will be interesting to see where Cody goes from here, I guess the focus will be more on Cody and Omega now, if not I guess Lethal and Cody will be the next thing for both.
