Also still hoping for a pure wrestling tournament of sorts, think that would be fantastic.
Totally. This match is giving me TV Title defense vibes through and through. Have a feeling I'm going to have this on mind for year-end lists.

Damn, Lethal became the heel of my two faves with that "boy" remark toward Gresham.

Loved the finsh, loved the match. These two would belong in any era of the company.

Oh ok, Bullet Club vs Kingdom now so Best Friends vs Young Bucks goes on last. That's cool with me.

Maaaaaan, Lethal and Gresham was really good. Gresham should have a huge year, hopefully. Bring back that Pure title, put it on Gresham for a long time.

As long as ROH knows not to do a Bad Bullet Club vs Bad Bullet Club main event.

I know it's easy to rip on but jeez does everyone in the Bullet Club have just the worst entrance gear.

Who's the face team in this program again?

Do we get Taven/Rhodes at Anniversary Show?

Then maybe Scurll/Page vs. Marseglia/O'Ryan?

This match has actually been really good. This whole show has been pretty great for the most part, save like 2 or 3 iffy matches

A very eyerollingly lizard-like finish.

Weird that they didn't really mention the Kenny/Cody match at Supercard. ROH has to definitely to commit to it, right?

Time for Chuckie T, the ROH roster member who main evented the first soft main event of the Honor Club era.

I first want to see the Briscoes get over, at least as much as when they were heels in 2012. Of course, they would be a great center to the division as heels--again, see 2012.

While I don't think it would have legs, I would like to see Best Friends as tag champs before Beretta inevitably goes back to the fed.

Uh, scratch that. Blues Brothers spot from Best Friends during the main event.

I didn't mind the finish. At least it wasn't in the main event, makes you hate the Kingdom more, and makes you want to see what Cody will do to get his ring back.

The most generous I'll say is that it wasn't on PPV. Don't do a Monday Night Raw finish like that for a co-main event on a somewhat significant night. Crowd wasn't warm to it either.

That main event felt like it would've been a strong one given a crowd with a brighter spark. Crowd peaked at Bullet Club vs. Kingdom.

Wasn't exactly a historic night, but it was a pretty decent test run on the production side (which is probably the actual biggest story coming out of the show) with an a-plus match in Gresham vs. Lethal.

I thought the main event was pretty good. Even though Matt has done the hurt back in other matches lately, I thought it helped the match have a cool story. Overall thought the show was really good
