Thoughts: Kyle won as expected here. They didn't go as crazy as they could with it but it was an indy match. They did a lot of dangerous moves and flying that meant nothing. I didn't like this. 

Overall thoughts: The sound from the crowd wasn't right here. I don't know what they did, but they weren't as loud as they should have been. They tried to explain the reasoning behind some of the matches, but the time to do that is in the build to the match, not right before it. It wasn't a true ROH vs CMLL show as most of the guys on this are already signed to AEW/ROH. We saw some different matchups here, but most of the matches were indy style matches and not my thing. It was nice to see some different matches than usual and they put in some effort. I'd give it like a 6 or 7 for effort, but I didn't enjoy this and would only give it a 5 out of 10. This one is for hardcore AEW fans and indy wrestling lovers only.
