Ring of Honor “Road to Best in the World 2016: Milwaukee”
June 12th, 2016
From Turner Hall Ballroom in Milwaukee, Wisconsin
Commentators: Kevin Kelly and BJ Whitmer
Tonight: the World Tag Wars Final with All-Night Express, Silas Young and the Beer City Bruiser and the Briscoes.
Steve Corino comes out and has words with BJ Whitmer. What words I do not know, I fast-forward talking segments.
The Addiction vs. Kamaitachi & Juice Robinson
This was a fun opener but really nothing special.
Winners: the Addiction
Will Ferrara vs. Dalton Castle w/different Boys
This match was pretty boring, but the Deadlift Suplex Dalton Castle did at the end was really impressive.
Winner: Dalton Castle
Moose & Lio Rush vs. Motor City Machine Guns
This was a good match but my attention waned.
Winners: Motor City Machine Guns

Donovan Dijak w/Prince Nana vs. Beretta
This was a good match and the last minute was especially good.
Winner: Donovan Dijak
Mark Briscoe joins the commentary team for the next match.
Four Corners Survival Match
ACH vs. Roderick Strong vs. Michael Elgin vs. Kyle O’Reilly
This was good but I just don’t care about anything involving Strong or O’Reilly.
Winner: Kyle O’Reilly

BJ Whitmer leaves the commentary booth and goes to the ring. Two thugs bring out a beaten up Steve Corino and he talks him down.

Jared Jackson & Curt Stallion vs. War Machine
This was the squishiest squash that ever squashed.
Winners: War Machine

This was good, better than the usual Rocky Romero match.
Winner: Bobby Fish

Winner: Cheeseburger
Post show recap with Kevin Kelly. I usually don’t watch these but this one started playing automatically after the last match and Silas and the Bruiser came out and were interviewed by Kelly. It was funny because when Silas went off on the fans for cheering them tonight (him and the Bruiser are both from Milwaukee) Kevin Kelly could barely hold back his laughter.
Promos from Kyle O’Reilly, Motor City Machine Guns, the Addiction, War Machine and BJ Whitmer.
___________________________________________________________________________________________
This wasn’t a very good show at all. I’m not sure why? Best in the World was the following weekend and maybe everyone was on autopilot? There were at least a few decent matches and it was nice to see Silas Young and the Bruiser win a big match but this one is one to skip over.
