1st half results from night one:
Briscoes defeated TDMK in a proving ground match
in an impromptu non-title match, Adam Cole defeated NWA World Heavyweight Champion Adam Pearce (this was a rematch from last night at the NWA's Battle of the Belts where Pearce retained over Cole.)
ANE defeated the Young Bucks in a tornado match. Afterward, Matt Jackson used a steel chair to attack Rhett Titus's knee.
With Tommaso Ciampa watching from ringside, ROH World TV Champion Jay Lethal defeated Kyle O'Reilly. Before this match, RD Evans said the Embassy has been given 24 hours to return the ROH World TV Championship to Lethal and Evans said the Embassy would return the belt to Lethal tomorrow.
right now it is Intermission

I meant to type the second half results last night after the show was over, but after an almost 50 hour work week I fell asleep after the show and when I woke up it was Saturday morning.
Here are the second-half results:
Wrestling's Greatest Tag Team defeated Caprice Coleman and Cedric Alexander.
Mike Bennett defeated Lance Storm
Kevin Steen (thanks to help from Jimmy Jacobs) defeated El Generico in a last man standing match
In the main event, ROH World Champion Davey Richards (hell yeah!) retained over Eddie Edwards and Roderick Strong. Edwards was eliminated first. Afterward Michael Elgin attacked Richards who defends the ROH World Championship against Elgin on today's IPPV. Does this match count as Elgin's title shot for winning Survival of the Fittest? IMO it should not, but nevertheless I expect the main event at Best in the World in June to be Davey Richards vs Kevin Steen for the ROH World Championship.
Hopefully today's IPPV does not have the audio/video lagging problems from last night's show.

today's show starts off with an impromptu match between Jimmy Jacobs (who said his "year of celibacy ended with an orgasm" last night) and El Generico!
and the audio/visual delays from yesterday are fixed too!

A brown out is the reported reason for the power failure. Go Fight Live said in an Email to me that the show has been on halt- but then there was something said about an intermission. Hopefully I did not miss the Cole-O'Reilly match or anything else.

At first they started the show again with the Young Bucks-ANX street fight without any mention of who won the Cole-O'Reilly match and then the show suddenly stopped again and there is not even an error message this time.

The winners of the matches not shown by the IPPV due to technical problems were Kyle O'Reilly and the Young Bucks.
a quick recap of the matches I saw once the show was brought back:
The Briscoes retained over Wrestling's Greatest Tag Team.
Kevin Steen defeated Eddie Edwards.
Roderick Strong defeated Jay Lethal to win the ROH World TV Championship (before the match, Tommaso Ciampa as promised brought back the belt but got Lethal to agree to give Strong a title match.)
ROH World Champion Davey Richards retained over Michael Elgin. Just like he does at PWG, Richards afterward put over his defeated opponent (Elgin) who he even called a future ROH World Champion and told him to break away from Truth Martini.
As you can tell from the Godfather picture in my signature, I am a big Davey Richards fan and I was glad to see him retain today as expected. but I would not be surprised to see the belt around Kevin Steen (who I also like) in July.
Despite the technical problems with the IPPV from last night (last night I actually turned off the sound which they never fixed so I did not have to hear about what was happening before I saw it) and today which caused the IPPV audience to miss 2 matches, I am glad to see my two personal favorite ROH wrestlers- Roderick Strong and Davey Richards- leave with titles around their wastes!

I'm actually hoping the ROH World Championship finds it's way around Steen's waist in May, Mr. Vegas. That is when I'll be taking my nephew to his very first live wrestling event at Ted Reeves Arena in Toronto.

That is when I'll be taking my nephew to his very first live wrestling event at Ted Reeves Arena in Toronto. It would definitely be interesting to see Steen win the ROH World Championship in his home country of Canada. However it just seems to me right now that Richards vs Steen is the likely main event for ROH's next IPPV in June. But either way, enjoy the show! |

Especially if Mike Bennett isn't on it! |
