Thoughts: It was an average/normal match with Gaspar jumping Ice from behind and causing the DQ.
Gaspar beats up Ice more and powerbombs him. Gaspar then chokeslams Max while Booker T cheers him on from the rafters. Booker T says he told you not to cross the boss. Booker says it'll be Gaspar vs Gino at ROW Summer of Champions for the title and that's final. Andrew Jackson comes out. He says he makes the rules and not Booker. Andrew says he's on to something though and says let's make a 4-way. He says that's good for business.
Emily May talks about Jordan Osasis vs Sam Halloway tonight for an ROW Platinum contract. Jordan walks in. He says he was coming here and was excited to be back at ROW. He said he beat Sam last time he was here. He says both of them are eliminated from the WWE ID Tournament and he's not underestimating him. He says let's go to war for the Platinum contract.

Sam leapfrogs and facekicks him. Sam stomps on him. Sam foot chokes him. Sam slingshot shoulderblocks him for 2. Sam double underhook suplexes him for 2. Sam side headlocks him.

Sam hits a nice shotgun dropkick into the corner. JO 2nd rope suplexes him. JO's tope outside is blocked and he is slammed on the apron edge. Sam hits a top rope splash for 2.
JO clubs on Sam from behind. Sam then hits JO with JO's own backpack. JO then wins by DQ.
Thoughts: The finish was really stupid here with Sam costing himself an ROW Platinum contract by using a weapon and getting caught. I have a hard time buying that he would do that. This is the 2nd match in a row with a dirty finish and it was one of the better WWE ID matches both guys have had until the finish.
Danny checks out shoes and finds Will Allday's boots in one of the boxes. Will then pops up behind him and hits him with the shoe box. Will then sends Danny into a stack of shoe boxes and says that's all he's worth - the clearance section. Will then superkicks him into the barber shop.
Will asks if they take walk-in's. Will then asks for the clippers and Danny and his friend run.
Thoughts: This was a great segment that was really funny and creative. Are wrestling segments in various stores or non-wrestling arena's ever not entertaining?
Tables Match - Fly-Def (Warren Johnson and Zack Mason) vs TNT (Terrell Hughes and Terrence Hughes)
The four trade punches to start. One of the TNT's is stomped stomped by War in the corner. Fly-Def take stereo rolling death valley drivers. A TNT member is then rolling death valley drivered onto Fly-Def.
TNT throw a table into the ring and Fly-Def grab it and throw it under the ring. TNT then hit plancha's outside. They fight outside and TNT brings a table in.
TNT tries to suplex Zack through a table but War moves the table. War sends a TNT member into the post shoulder first. The other TNT member then is double teamed by Fly-Def. A TNT member is dropped gut first on the side of the table.
A TNT member is stomped in the corner. A table is set up in the corner. A TNT member hits a double flying clothesline on Fly-Def. War is lariated over the top and Zack is slammed. A TNT member is crotched up top after they go for The Dudley's "Wazzzup" table spot. Fly Def then go for the Wazzup spot and fail. TNT then hit the Wazzup spot on Zack.
War takes a 3D. Zack then takes a 3D through a table. TNT win.
Thoughts: It was a shorter one and didn't get a ton of time. What we got was fine but it was straight to the point and didn't get to be the big blow off match I was hoping for.
Overall thoughts: None of the matches were that great here as 2 of them had dirty finishes and the main was short. The big highlight here was Will Allday's and Danny Limelight's shoe store brawl. That is worth checking out and it is one of the better things ROW has done. I'd give this one a 5 out of 10 as it was average all around but go check out the shoe store brawl.
