Long lines for merch, Cole and Scurrl were signing 8-by-10s and taking pictures.<\/p>\n<p>(5)\u00a0Cheeseburger &amp;\u00a0Will Ferrera pinned The Carnies in a surprisingly energetic contest for what was on paper the popcorniest of popcorn matches.<\/p><div id=\"pwtor-1689847441\" class=\"pwtor-content pwtor-entity-placement\"><div align=\"center\" data-freestar-ad=\"__336x280 __336x280\" id=\"pwtorchcom_test_300x250\">\r\n  <script data-cfasync=\"false\" type=\"text\/javascript\">\r\n    freestar.config.enabled_slots.push({ placementName: \"pwtorchcom_test_300x250\", slotId: \"pwtorchcom_test_300x250\" });\r\n  <\/script>\r\n<\/div><\/div>\n<p>(6)\u00a0Jay White pinned &#8220;Punishment&#8221; Damien Martinez with a rollup.\u00a0 After the match, Martinez got his heat back by attacking Jay White.\u00a0 Both guys worked hard but struggled to hold the crowd&#8217;s interest.\u00a0 The fans chanted &#8220;One More Time!&#8221; after Martinez laid out White and popped huge when Martinez got back in the ring and delivered a curb stomp. Not a great sign for White as a mid-card babyface, although he did get respectful applause as he was helped to the back.<\/p>\n<p>(7) The\u00a0Briscoes beat The\u00a0Motor City Machine Guns in the best match of the night.\u00a0 They brawled all over the building and both teams were very over.<\/p>\n<p>(8) Bully Ray pinned Silas Young in a No DQ match.\u00a0 Before the match, Bully Ray declared this to be a No DQ match, which referree Paul Turner apparently was fine with.\u00a0 Bully feels like a total nostalgia act at this point, but the crowd was into it.<\/p>\n<p>(9)\u00a0The Addiction &amp;\u00a0Dalton Castle pinned The Young Bucks &amp;\u00a0Adam Page of the Bullet Club. \u00a0THE Young Bucks were mega-over, as always.\u00a0 Satisfying if by-the-numbers main event.\u00a0 Daniels cut a promo after the match putting over ROH and the fans.<\/p>\n<p>FINAL NOTES: Overall this was a fun, feel good house show from ROH.\u00a0 From bell to bell with intermission the show clocked in at around 3 hours 40 minutes but they kept things moving with minimal down-time between matches so it never dragged. The crowd was hot for pretty much everything and threw streamers for practically every match, though it felt like they were more into the brand overall than any specific wrestler.<\/p>\n<p>Biggest Pops<br \/>\n1.\u00a0 Young Bucks<br \/>\n2.\u00a0 Briscoes<br \/>\n3.\u00a0 Bully Ray\/Marty Scurrl<\/p>\n<p>Most Heat<br \/>\n1.
