Good PPV. Action in the Main was okay, but the overbooking killed it. I would have been fine with Jay vs. Ciampa.

Also, the idea of Joe vs. Jay Briscoe for the ROH title in Nashville, from the Fairgrounds on PPV is just delicious.

Solid show
Decent first half and then amazing in the middle with the fun womens match and then the matches of the night with AJ Vs ACH and RedDragons Vs Bucks.
Agreed that the main event was solid for the most part and then completely in a bad way went off the rails.

just read results and my question is what the heck are the knights of the rising dawn Trio in masks that have been in the crowd. They attacked in the main event and hit the Twist of Fate and 1%'er, leading the announce team to say it was the Kingdom but I think otherwise and started a thread on it.

Awesome show!
The run in doesn't bother me because ROH rarely does it and it adds more to the KRD storyline. Plus Briscoe/Samoa Joe should be fantastic!
reDRagon vs Young Bucks was phenomenal! AJ/ACH didn't disappoint. The opener was great with Sydal/Cedric! Moose is actually growing on me and he's improving every show. Lethal/Alberto was a fight! Lethal has been taking his game to a whole new level. Definately worth checking out!

They hit all of the Kingdom's finishers but it looked like they were about to do the Book of Truth pose. Sooo

So was this PPV worth the huge in ROH standers price point people? Simple, if you like ROH then without a doubt yes. If you don't then avoid it.

Well mine was $45 I have verizon fios I just wish that it was at least $25 for SD and $30 for HD Then I wouldn't have a problem but IMHO ROH is not a slam dunk purchase for me and a lot of people when it hits the $40 range.

Just finished the show. That main event was something of a mess. You can tell that Samoa Joe's sudden signing definitely affected the pacing of the show in between matches, I have a feeling the Knights probably were gonna reveal themselves tonight if Joe wasn't around. That Todd Sinclair bump was nasty. There were a few significant spots where you could see Hanson constantly just rolling around getting in places for guys to do spots.
I really didn't care for the Knights hitting Kingdom moves, just for the sake of swerving us down the line. Assuming that they aren't the Kingdom, and assuming that if not for Ray Rowe they were gonna reveal themselves in just a few moments, it would just be weird., like why did you hit their moves?

This show featured the best and worst in overbooking.
Maria and ODB was overbooked well, because of the limitations around the talents involved. Having Bennett and Briscoe there really helped the match out and it was very exciting with the right finish.
The main event was a match that didn't need half of the stuff they did, felt like a vintage TNA Jeff Jarrett main event and that's not a good thing for a 2015 ROH show. They should have just let the four have a barn-burner for their anniversary show and save the shenanigans for after the match was over.

This was my first ROH PPV and while most of the matches were great, I don't really care for the overall production. For a promotion that's been around for 13 years, they don't look it. The announcers were RAW-commentary bad with talking about stupid stuff during the match, though to a lesser degree. They kept on point during title matches, but both dudes were just such momo's that I wanted to mute them during other matches. When they did call stuff though it was very solid.
The camera work isn't really my style either. I dunno, I can't put my finger on it. I really wanted to like the show too because most of my faves wrestle for them, but I had a hard time getting into it for some reason.
Also, was there a chandelier there? Because they NEVER showed it.

This didn't seem like an ROH crowd. They loved the Bullet Club and the TNA guys, but barely reacted for ACH, Ciampa, Briscoes, etc.

Pretty solid show. I liked all the matches. And the main event definitely didn't need the last 3-4 minutes. My MOTN is Maria/ODB, mainly for Corino's pregnant Maria commentary

Ahaha, I'm glad you didn't win Elgin, you fat man-baby. Now that he's seemingly out of the title picture, maybe he can move onto finally going to Japan. He could find a spot in NJPW AJPW NOAH DragonGate Wrestle-1 DDT STARDOM BJW whatever strong-style promotion Inoki runs to launder money these days.
