Eddie breaks it up and exploders Madden. Top Flight hit stereo plancha's outside. Eddie ddt's Mansoor and Ortiz top rope splashes Mansoor to win.
Thoughts: At least we got a little bit of action here and had a somewhat competitive match. The big story was the heels getting Trent to pose with them, which he did and ended up paying for. It was acceptable but not much more.
Overall thoughts: It was a boring show. We had 4 squashes and two trios matches. The two trios matches were fine but nothing I would recommend going to check out. It was the usual lazy edition of ROH with random short matches that were maybe okay but nothing great. I'd barely give this a 5 out of 10 and would not recommend it at all. I'd say Beef/Rush was maybe the best thing on here.
