ROH Final Battle 2004
ROH Final Battle 2004 (12/26/2004)- Philadelphia, PA
BRYAN DANIELSON PROMO- awesome!
JIMMY JACOBS vs. TRENT ACID- 5.5/10
DERANGED & LACEY vs. ANGELDUST & BECKY BAYLESS- 4.75/10
JOSH DANIELS vs. HOMICIDE (w/Julius Smokes)- 5.5/10
ROH PURE TITLE MATCH: John Walters(c) vs. Jimmy Rave (w/The Embassy)- 6.25/10. Creative finish
FIGHT WITHOUT HONOR: The Carnage Crew vs. Dan Maff & BJ Whitmer- 7.75/10. Foley coming down to the ring and introducing thumbtacks really killed the flow of the match. Still, it was very good and very violent. A fitting end to this feud.
FOLEY-STEAMBOAT CONFRONTATION- waste of time.
FOLEY-JOE CONFRONTATION- Now THAT’S WHAT I’M TALKING ABOUT!
JAY LETHAL vs. WEAPON OF MASKED DESTRUCTION #2 (Flash Flanagan) (w/The Embassy)- 6/10
HOMICIDE PROMO- good stuff
STEVE CORINO & CM PUNK vs. RODERICK STRONG & ALEX SHELLEY- 7/10
GENERATION NEXT SEGMENT- Great.
BRYAN DANIELSON vs. LOW KI- 7/10. Disappointing finish, but it built very well to Dragon and Cide’s upcoming best of 5 series.
LOW KI ASSAULTS THE REFEREE- PERFECT SEGMENT!
ROH WORLD TITLE MATCH: Samoa Joe(c) (w/Jay Lethal) vs. Austin Aries (w/Roderick Strong)- 8/10
Overall, this show is great, but not amazing by any stretch.
