Roh supercard of honor 20161/6/2024 Adam Cole both begins the match jumping O’Reilly with a steel chain and then spends the match setting up these traps that work because Kyle is mad enough to make mistakes. All the other stuff goes down a lot smoother when the gaps are filled up with these smaller moments where they’re hitting each other as hard as possible.Īnother hallmark of these 2010s Ring of Honor blow-off brawls is that, typically, the ending of the match is just about perfect for the way it’s wrestled, and this is no exception. Cole holds back a lot on the big faces, there’s not a lot of truly convoluted stuff going on, O’Reilly sells the brief little leg work pretty well for the rest of the match, and right up my alley, they spend the match really wailing on each other. That’s sort of how I feel about the entire thing.Ībout half of it you can see coming, but it works. They’re not always blowaway great, they can sometimes be a little predictable and rote, but it works. No chair shots to the face, but a ton of real nasty landings, gross shots, and real awesome spots in general. Also, while limited in what they do use, I can’t say with any honesty that this is a match lacking in brutality. If lacking in blood and not as full of mayhem as anyone who isn’t like seventy years old would want, they’re really great about building things up and paying them off in satisfying ways. Given how wild some of Cole’s PWG brawls have gotten, there’s a sense that there was so much MORE that they could have done.Īs for the positive, the great thing about an ROH blowoff brawl is that they always get a lot out of what’s there. It’s also relatively limited to the domain of one table, brief use of a chain, and a few chairs. It’s a really heated feud, and a little color might really push it over the top. Or I would, and I assume all of my experiences, thoughts, and feelings are near universal. To give you the damn veggies first, you would want more blood than you get. It’s a very 2010s ROH sort of a blowoff, in ways both positive and negative.
