Back in the ring Andertti hit some kicks and a deadlift falcon arrow for a two count. Andretti hit a shotgun dropkick and then a split legged moonsault for the pinfall.Action Andretti defeated Tony Deppen by pinfall in 5:15.Robinson’s Ruminations: The new attitude will work, but Andretti’s going to have to adjust his in ring style to match. He’s still a touch too flashy in the ring just yet. Maybe go study some Blake Christian tapes.Backstage, the Iron Savages called out The Outrunners and made fun of their bald spots. Jackson said they were “meat riders”, really calling them coattail riders. Bronson told them to do something about it or they’ll be around every beach and gym sauna waiting for them. Jackson stuck out his tongue as the interview closed…2. Jacked Jameson and Beefcake Boulder (w/Bulk Bronson) vs. “The Dark Order” Alex Reynolds and John Silver (w/Evil Uno). Reynolds tried a cross body but got caught by Boulder who then missed a splash. Reynolds hit a basement dropkick. Jameson and Silver came in and posed. Silver got the better of the shoulder block exchange and a scoop slam. Jameson tried to do Titty City, but Silver turned it around on him. Silver did the same to Bronson on the outside who was trying to console Boulder. Back in the ring, Jameson and Boulder did their back splash routine in the corner.Silver slipped out of a slam attempt and got the hot tag to Reynolds who hit shoulder blocks, a dropkick to the knee and a dropkick to the face of Boulder.

Boulder went over the top on a splash attempt and hit the floor and Dark Order hit their combo finish for the pinfall on Jameson.“The Dark Order” Alex Reynolds and John Silver defeated Jacked Jameson and Beefcake Boulder by pinfall in 6:00.Robinson’s Ruminations: That was rough at the start as both teams have been portrayed as heels lately so the fans sat on their hands. Dark Order won them over by the end with some good fast paced action though. Jameson is still a work in progress, but the fact they let him have a tag match instead of a trio is a promising sign, I guess?A video package aired for the WrestleDream pay-per-view focused on the Jon Moxley turn on Bryan Danielson…3. Abadon vs. Liviyah. No televised entrance for Liviyah. Abadon bit the arm of Liviyah on the code of honor. Abadon hit a clothesline. Liviyah got in a forearm and a backstabber, but Abadon just sat up. Liviyah tried a russian leg sweep but Abadon turned it into a backbreaker and some pouches to the face. Abadon hit a running knee to the face and then Black Dahlia for the pinfall.Abadon defeated Liviyah by pinfall in 1:30.Abadon called for Athena as her music played.Robinson’s Ruminations: Squash match.Backstage, Arcade Aura told Red Velvet and Diamante there was to be no contact or the match would be canceled. Velvet said they have fought each other a lot, and Diamante is at her prime. But she’s been doing this for twice the time Velvet did. Velvet said it keeps her up at night. Diamate threw her water down and said she has been on a roll but she’s going to keep getting better. Diamante said red looks better on her, referring to the red title belt…4. Brian Cage vs. Alec Price. No entrance for Prince. Price looked like a string bean compared to Cage. A shoulder tackle flipped Price all around. Price hit a superkick and flipped out of a leg grab. Price tried a flying head scissors but Cage caught him. Price tried a sunset flip but Cage pulled him up and suplexed him over head. Cage assaulted Price in the corner with strikes and then Biel tossed him across the ring and posed. Cage Biel tossed Price again and the crowd asked for one more. Cage gorilla pressed Price and threw him out of the ring toward the ramp. Cage went out and pressed him again and threw him back in the ring. Cage tried a pump handle and Price flipped out and hit a dropkick. Price hit some running strikes in the corner but Cage then German suplexed him into the corner. Cage hit a series of powerbombs and then an F5 for the pinfall.Brian Cage defeated Alec Price by pinfall in 4:40.Robinson’s Ruminations: There was only so much production could do to try and hide the fact there may have been 100 people left in this cavernous arena. That said the crowd reaction for Price felt good, so I don’t know if they sweetened the sound or he had some very vocal friends in the front row. Price flipped and bumped his ass off for Cage here.A recap aired of the bunkhouse brawl from Collision between Dusty Rhodes and Sammy Guevara and The Kingdom. It was interspersed with a backstage conversation between Rhodes and Guevara after the match. It ended with a bloody Rhodes saying he was going to go get some stitches…5.

Athena locked in a submission the announcers called “The Hussy Clutch” for the tap out on LMK.Athena and Billie Starkz defeated LMK and Christina Maire by submission in 6:00.After the match, Athena and Starkz continued the beatdown until Abadon made her way down the ramp. Athena and Strakz waited in the ring but Athena snuck away and left Billie for dead. Athena shined her belt at ringside while Abadon clotheslined Billie. Billie finally slid out of the ring and Abadon stood tall…Robinson’s Ruminations: A fine little tag match. This was the second time I saw Christina Marie today and she looked very good both times. You can also check her out on JCW Lunacy #5 on YouTube. Athena being scared of Abadon and leaving Billie out for dead was cute and played well enough, but I’m still very concerned about how that title match is going to go…6. Johnny TV vs. Komander (w/Alex Abrahantes). TV hit an early shoulder block and blocked a leap frog with a leaping forearm. Komander hit a lucha arm drag out of a caught moonsault press. TV flipped out of a monkey flip attempt. TV got dumped to ringside and Komander stopped a dive in mid run because TV slid back in the ring.

Komander went for his rope walking shooting star, but TV popped up and grabbed him for a mid rope Spanish fly. TV picked up Komander in a torture rack but Komander turned it into a destroyer. Komander did a springboard and tried for a poison-rana but botched it and both men fell over awkwardly. Komander went up top and hit his rope walking shooting star for the pinfall.Komander defeated Johnny TV by pinfall in 10:00.Robinson’s Ruminations: Had you told me that I was going to get a Komander and Johnny TV ten minute match, I would have thought of all the crazy fun lucha action I should be getting. Instead, this was a mess. Botched moves all over the place, TV taking extended slow methodical beat down breaks with rest holds in there too. Man, this was the pits.7. Lee Moriarty vs. Preston Vance for the ROH Pure Rules Championship. The judges were Jerry Lynn, Christopher Daniels and Jimmy Jacobs. Vance used his power to throw Moriarty down a few times during the lock up. Vance hit a shoulder tackle and got a one count. Vance hit another shoulder block.

Vance hit a spinebuster and fired up. Vance dried his discus lariat but Moriart slid out. Moriarty went around the world, but Vance locked in a full nelson and Moriarty had to use rope break number one to get free. Vance hit the discus lariat for a double down. Moriarty rolled to ringside and Vance tried to pull him in but Moriarty hit a hotshot. Moriarty went around the world, teased the Border City Stretch, but rolled into a cradle and got the pinfall.Lee Moriarty defeated Preston Vance by pinfall in 7:01.Robinson’s Ruminations: I understand not changing the title here or having a powerhouse like Vance win the Pure Title. I do not understand putting Vance in a position like this where you need to have him lose just when you’re trying to build him back up.
