Thank you!

Sin Cara and the Ascension were the faces in this one.\u00a0 Nice to see Mike back in the ring.\u00a0 No Maria, but she was well represented on the back of his jacket.\u00a0 Comedy early where they did a \u201cOl\u00e9\u201d bullfighting spot with Kanellis chasing his jacket.\u00a0 Strange to see big Konnor playing the face in peril role, but it made Mojo look strong with his offense.\u00a0 Sin Cara got the hot tag and the victory for his team.<\/p>\n<p>(3) The Usos beat The Bludgeon Brothers via DQ to retain the Smackdown Tag Titles. The Usos were over pretty well with this crowd.\u00a0 Decent match that ended in DQ when Uso went for a dive but Harper and Rowan hit him with the stairs from the outside.<\/p>\n<p>Byron was plugging some merchandise when Sami Zayn and Kevin Owens came out through the crowd and cut a promo on Daniel Bryan saying he was just as bad as Shane McMahon. \u00a0The crowd went nuts for these two. Nice to see the continuity from TV as they were fired and it played as if they were not supposed to be there. They were cut off by Shinsuke Nakamura\u2019s music and left.<\/p><div id=\"pwtor-2751161980\" 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>(4) Shinsuke Nakamura beat Baron Corbin. Good match between these two.\u00a0 Nakamura got a clean win after the Kinshasa.<\/p>\n<p>Intermission<\/p>\n<p>(5) Tyler Breeze beat Tye Dillinger. There was a brief Fashion Files clip which led to this match, a short comedy match.\u00a0 There was a spot where Tye was chasing Fandango around the ring and Tyler was chasing him.\u00a0 Those two got back in the ring and Fandango kept doing laps around the ring. \u00a0Breeze won with a roll up.<\/p>\n<p>(6) Naomi &amp; Becky Lynch beat Carmella &amp; Lana (w\/Natalya). &#8220;Rusev Day&#8221; chants for Lana.\u00a0 Back and forth match that saw Becky Lynch get the win with the disarmer on Lana.<\/p>\n<p>(7) The New Day &amp; A.J. Styles beat Rusev &amp; Aiden English &amp; Shelton Benjamin &amp; Chad Gable. There were dueling &#8220;A.J. Styles&#8221; and &#8220;Rusev Day&#8221; chants. \u00a0The crowd was into this one and there was a lot of dancing from all parties.\u00a0 Styles was in to start the match and then at the end did his signature moves on all members of the other team and then pinned English with the Phenomenal Forearm.\u00a0 After the match, New Day and Styles celebrated and threw pancakes into the crowd and danced.<\/p>\n<p>FINAL THOUGHTS: This was a fun show first time I got to see guys like Styles and Nakamura in person. I was surprised there was no Charlotte on the show and wonder if Natalya being in the corner instead of a match was some type of change in plans. No return date was announced, but the past couple of years they have done December shows in Fairfax.\u00a0 Next show in this building will be the ROH TV taping on June 30.<\/p>\n<hr \/>\n<p><em>Please send results of live events you attend to <a href=\"mailto:pwtorch@pwtorch.com\">pwtorch@pwtorch.com<\/a>.
