ROH Undeniable
ROH Undeniable (10/6/2007)- Edison, NJ
OPENING SEGMENT- eh.
JIMMY JACOBS PROMO- GREAT!
THE AGE OF THE FALL (Jimmy Jacobs & Tyler Black) (w/Lacey) vs. THE VULTURE SQUAD (Jack Evans & Ruckus) (w/Julius Smokes)- 5/10. Very fast-paced. Awesome opener.
ERICK STEVENS VIDEO PACKAGE- AWESOME!
DAIZEE HAZE vs. SARA DEL REY (w/Sweet N’ Sour Inc.)- 3.75/10. Good stuff on the outside with Hero & Claudio.
BRYAN DANIELSON vs. CHRIS HERO (w/Larry Sweeney)- 7/10
PEARCE & STEEN SEGMENT- GREAT!
DELIRIOUS, KEVIN STEEN, & EL GENERICO vs. THE HANGMEN 3 (Adam Pearce, Brent Albright, & BJ Whitmer) (w/Shane Hagadorn)- 6.25/10
NIGEL MCGUINNES PROMO- GREAT!
AUSTIN ARIES vs. RODERICK STRONG- 8/10 Not your typical match between these two. Lots of stuff on the outside.
ROH WORLD TAG TEAM TITLE MATCH: The Briscoe Brothers(c) vs. The No Remorse Corps (Davey Richards & Rocky Romero)- 7.75/10
ROH WORLD TITLE MATCH: Takeshi Morishima(c) vs. Nigel McGuinness- 7.5/10 (only 7.25 on the wrestling, making it extremely disappointing for an ROH World Title change, but I am bumping it up to 7.5 because of the crowd reaction. That, ladies and gentlemen, is a "moment."
Bonus Matches:
CLAUDIO CASTAGNOLI vs. JIGSAW (w/Jack Evans & Julius Smokes)- 6.75/10. A great show of athleticism from both men. I want to see these two face off more!
LOSER OF THE FALL LEAVES ROH FOR 60 DAYS: The Resilience (Matt Cross & Erick Stevens) vs. The No Remorse Corps (Davey Richards & Rocky Romero)- 6.25/10. Yeah, I know he did a flip to make the hot tag, but I wasn’t happy with M-Dogg coming back into the ring and doing a bunch of flips only about a minute after spending a bunch of time playing Ricky Morton and making the hot tag. M-Dogg also really botched a reverse Hurricanrana to the point where I thought that Davey had reversed the move into an Electric Chair Suplex, but then Davey started selling it, confusing me a lot.
NO DISQUALIFICATION MATCH: Jay Briscoe vs. The Necro Butcher- 6.25/10 This match really felt like it dragged and just never got very exciting… combined with a moronic finish. AOTF show up right in from of the curtain, wheeling out Mark Briscoe, tied up with barbed wire, distracting Jay, letting Necro take the advantage. What? No one backstage saw them and went to help Mark out? Come on.
Overall, a good show, but nothing great, with no matches really worth going out of your way to see. A must buy for Nigel McGuinness fans, but that’s about it. Otherwise, it is a good show, but there are much better ones out there. Pick it up for cheap, if you can.
