ROH Wrestlerave '03
ROH Wrestlerave '03 (6/28/2003)- Philadelphia, PA
LOW KI PROMO- Wooden. Ki’s style of cutting promos usually works for me, but it just utterly failed here.
SEGMENT WITH ROB FEINSTEIN AND SIMPLY LUSCIOUS- like a lot of early ROH segments, it was a bit too blunt to be good, but it did its job getting the message across.
PRINCE NANA & JIMMY JAC’T CASH vs. THE RING CREW EXPRESS (Dunn & Marcos)- 3.5/10
ALEXIS LAREE vs. SUMIE SAKAI- 4/10
PROPHECY PROMO- Great promos all around
SUBMISSION MATCH: Matt Stryker vs. Chad Collyer- 7/10
THE CARNAGE CREW (HC Loc, Tony Devito, & Justin Credible) vs. SPECIAL K (Deranged, Dixie, & Izzy) (w/the rest of special K)- 4.5/10
ROH WORLD TITLE MATCH: Samoa Joe(c) vs. Dan Maff- 7.25/10
GARY MICHAEL CAPETTA INTERVIEWS HOMICIDE & JULIUS SMOKES- eh
FOUR CORNER SURVIVAL MATCH: BJ Whitmer vs. Jimmy Jacobs vs. Alex Shelley vs. Tony Mamaluke- 6.5/10
NO DISQUALIFICATION MATCH: Colt Cabana & CM Punk (w/Lucy) vs. Raven & Christopher Daniels (w/Allison Danger)- 6.25/10
RAVEN PROMO- good
CM PUNK PROMO- Absolutely AMAZING. One of the best of all-time.
NWA WORLD HEAVYWEIGHT TITLE MATCH: AJ Styles(c) vs. Chris Sabin- 6.5/10
FIGHT WITHOUT HONOR: Trent Acid vs. Homicide (w/Julius Smokes)- 8.5/10
AWESOME match.
SPECIAL K RAVE IN THE RING- it is what it is.
JIM CORNETTE PROMO- good
THE CARNAGE CREW PROMO- good
BACK TO THE SPECIAL K RAVE- if we are going to keep having to see this thing and listen to this obnoxious music, can we at least get more shots of Becky?
SAMOA JOE PROMO- eh
Overall, a pretty good show from ROH, but there are much better shows out there. The CM Punk promo is must-see, but I’m pretty sure you can find it on the internet somewhere. It is a pretty famous promo.
