BRM Reviews ROH Good Times Great Memories

[Big Red Machine]

ROH Good Times Great Memories (4/28/2007)- Chicago, IL

JIMMY JACOBS PROMO- AMAZING!!!! PERFECT!!!! BEAUTIFUL!!!!!! ART!!!!!!!!!!!

SIX MAN MAYEM MATCH: Mike Quackenbush vs. Jigsaw vs. Delirious vs. Hallowicked vs. Gran Akuma vs. Pelle Primeau- 6/10. Great action & great comedy

ERICK STEVENS vs. CHRISTOPHER DANIELS (w/Allison Danger)- 6.25/10. F*CKING GENIUS post-match stuff, too! AWESOME worked shoot! Whoever’s idea it was for Daniels to shove Danger is a genius. I never thought they would have his character cross that line, especially after the big deal he made about BJ Whitmer hitting Danger with a Wrist-Clutch Exploder Suplex… and that was when Danger was a delusional heel.

FOUR CORNER SURVIVAL MATCH: Jimmy Rave vs. Brent Albright vs. BJ Whitmer vs. Homicide- 7/10

AUSTIN ARIES vs. ROCKY ROMERO- 7/10

ROH WORLD TITLE MATCH: Takeshi Morishima(c) vs. Shingo Takagi- 8/10. I’m not too big a fan of either of these guys, but I have to give them credit here. This was great.

MCMG PROMO- awesome

ALEX PAYNE vs. TANK TOLAND (w/Bobby Dempsey)- good squash, with a good lead in and aftermath

JACK EVANS vs. RODERICK STRONG (w/Rocky Romero)- 6.75/10

ROH WORLD TAG TEAM TITLE MATCH: The Briscoe Brothers(c) vs. The Motor City Machine Guns- 9/10. Much slower than you would expect for a match between these two teams, but it worked.

COLT CABANA vs. ADAM PEARCE (w/Shane Hagadorn)- no rating. Good comedy with some story thrown in there. A perfect sendoff for Cabana.

POST-MATCH CABANA SPEECH- Touching

Overall this was an extremely strong show by ROH. There is not a single match on here that is less than “good,” and the show is worth picking up just for the two title matches on their own (if only you knew someone trying to sell a copy of this show...)
