PAGEOT, PWTORCH CONTRIBUTOR<\/h3>\n<p><em>Commentary: Ian Riccaboni, Caprice Coleman<\/em><\/p>\n<p>We opened to complete darkness in the arena. The lights came up and Maria Manic attacked and beat up two members of the ring crew who were apparently in the midst of finishing prepping the ring and tightening the ropes. Ring announcer Nick Lendl asked her for an interview so she threw him in the ring and put him in a torture rack and slammed him. She grabbed his mic. \u201cI\u2019m Maria Manic, I\u2019m with Ring Of Honor, and this is my house now.\u201d<\/p>\n<p><em>(Pageot\u2019s Perspective: Wow, so she\u2019s just a piece of garbage? Interesting direction to take. It would be one thing if she was beating up heel wrestlers or guys who were meddling in her business. These were two guys just working on the crew getting the ring set up and a ring announcer who had no reason to be accosted.)<\/em><\/p>\n<p>-Riccaboni and Coleman checked in. They ran down the theme of the night, which is that fans voted online to determine various opponents and match stipulations. They ran down the announced matches. Villain Enterprises\u2019 six-man titles would still be on the line, despite Brody King being pulled due to injury. Marty Scurll and PCO would have a replacement partner selected by the ROH board of directors.<\/p>\n<p>-Dragon Lee was out for the first match. His potential opponents were PJ Black, Jeff Cobb, Eli Isom, or Kenny King. Isom received 12% of the votes, King 15%, Black 31%, and Cobb 41%.<\/p>\n<p><strong>(1) DRAGON LEE vs. \u201cTHE HAWAIIAN JUGGERNAUT\u201d JEFF COBB<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Lee countered a Tour Of The Islands into a crucifix pin.<\/p>\n<p>WINNER: Dragon Lee in 12:02<\/p><div id=\"pwtor-2516779426\" 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><em>(Pageot\u2019s Perspective: Another blow to Cobb\u2019s ROH momentum following his undefeated streak ending to Taven and losing his second match to Rush last weekend. I suspect Dragon Lee will be capturing the TV title at <\/em>Final Battle<em>, though, so I suppose he needed to win here. The voting results seem believably legitimate so far. We\u2019ll see how things continue.)<\/em><\/p>\n<p>-The Briscoes were out next to defend the tag titles against either Master &amp; Machine, Soldiers Of Savagery, The Tate Twins, or Young Woods. The fans voted 6% for The Tate Twins (Dalton Castle\u2019s former Boys), 15% for S.O.S., 22% for Josh Woods &amp; Silas Young, and 57% for Master &amp; Machine. Sure\u2026<\/p>\n<p><strong>(2) THE BRISCOES (Jay Briscoe &amp; Mark Briscoe) vs. MASTER &amp; MACHINE (Marcus Kross &amp; Griff Garrison) \u2013 ROH WORLD TAG TEAM CHAMPIONSHIP<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>The commentators tried to kayfabe the results by saying that you individuals could vote repeatedly. Jay Driller + froggy-bow to Garrison for the pin.<\/p>\n<p>WINNERS: The Briscoes in 8:27 to retain the tag titles.<\/p>\n<p><em>(Pageot\u2019s Perspective: Garrison &amp; Kross have only appeared twice previously on televised ROH events. In February they were squashed by The Bouncers on ROH TV and in September they lost to The Tate Twins on TV. They may have earned some joke votes from people purposefully picking the worst options but there\u2019s no way they got 57%.)<\/em><\/p>\n<p>-Our third match was CMLL world champion \u00daltimo Guerrero and the three men not chosen to face Lee in our first match facing off in a four corner survival.<\/p>\n<p><strong>(3) CMLL WORLD HEAVYEWIGHT CHAMPION \u00daLTIMO GUERRERO vs. \u201cDAREWOLF\u201d PJ BLACK vs. ELI ISOM vs. KENNY KING (w\/ Amy Rose) \u2013 NON-TITLE MATCH<\/strong><\/p><div id=\"pwtor-619606138\" class=\"pwtor-content-1 pwtor-entity-placement\"><!-- Tag ID: pwtorchcom_test_300x600 -->\r\n<div align=\"center\" data-freestar-ad=\"__336x280 __300x600\" id=\"pwtorchcom_test_300x600\">\r\n  <script data-cfasync=\"false\" type=\"text\/javascript\">\r\n    freestar.config.enabled_slots.push({ placementName: \"pwtorchcom_test_300x600\", slotId: \"pwtorchcom_test_300x600\" });\r\n  <\/script>\r\n<\/div><\/div>\n<p>Rose tripped Black as he wrestled with King on the turnbuckle. In the end Black hit Isom with the Placebo Effect for the win, though.<\/p>\n<p>WINNER: PJ Black in 10:12.<\/p>\n<p><em>(Pageot\u2019s Perspective: Fine match. Surprised Guerrero didn\u2019t go over but Black could use the win more at this point.)<\/em><\/p>\n<p>-Our fourth match was a tag match with fans voting whether Rush and Matt Taven would team with Shane Taylor or Dalton Castle. 55% chose Rush &amp; Taylor over Rush &amp; Castle at 45%.<\/p>\n<p><strong>(4) ROH WORLD CHAMPION RUSH &amp; ROH WORLD TELEVISION CHAMPION SHANE TAYLOR vs. MATT TAVEN &amp; DALTON CASTLE<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Taylor pinned Castle with Welcome To The Land.<\/p>\n<p>WINNERS: Taylor &amp; Rush in 11:04.<\/p>\n<p>-The champions had a brief stare down while Taven, TK O\u2019Ryan, and Vincent Marseglia checked on Castle.<\/p>\n<p><em>(Pageot\u2019s Perspective: Taylor\u2019s good year continues. It\u2019s a shame his contract runs out at the end of December and ROH apparently has no intention to re-sign him, at least according to Joey Mercury.)<\/em><\/p>\n<p>-Match #5 had the fans selecting the stipulation for Gresham-Haskins. 26% of the fans chose European rounds, 30% pure rules, and 44% 2 out of 3 falls. Gresham previously had gone on Twitter and expressly told the fans not to choose 2 out of 3 falls.<\/p>\n<p><strong>(5) \u201cOVERKILL\u201d MARK HASKINS vs. \u201cTHE OCTOPUS\u201d JONATHAN GRESHAM \u2013 2 OUT OF 3 FALLS<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Dueling chants for both men at 5:00.\u00a0 (How&#8217;s that heel turn for Gresham going?)\u00a0 Gresham took a few cheap shots in the ropes to rile up Haskins.\u00a0 At 7:00 he fully grabbed Haskins by the crotch in front of the referee and squeezed.\u00a0 Apparently that didn&#8217;t qualify for a disqualification.\u00a0 Haskins returned the favor.\u00a0 Gresham looked for a bridging pin on Haskins but Haskins pinned his shoulders to the mat instead.\u00a0 The referee decided they were both down for three.<\/p>\n<p><em>Haskins pinned Gresham \/ Gresham pinned Haskins at 16:25.<\/em><\/p>\n<p>One more fall would determine the winner.\u00a0 Gresham locked on a figure four.\u00a0 Haskins tried for a rope break but they both rolled out of the ring and fell to the floor with the move still locked on.\u00a0 Gresham let go to break the count-out.\u00a0 Haskins tried to make it back in at 18 but his leg gave out and he was counted out.<\/p>\n<p>WINNER: Jonathan Gresham in 20:27.<\/p>\n<p><em>(Pageot\u2019s Perspective:\u00a0 A couple creative finishes and at least it didn&#8217;t end with Gresham kicking him between the legs like usual.\u00a0 Overall it was a little boring but at least they didn&#8217;t insult our intelligence by having a 2 out of 3 falls go 8 minutes like some promotions might.)<\/em><\/p>\n<p>-Up next it was Haskins&#8217; partner Tracy Williams taking on Flip Gordon once again.\u00a0 26% of the fans wanted a Singapore cane match, 30% a strap match, and 44% last man standing.<\/p>\n<p><strong>(6) \u201cHOT SAUCE\u201d TRACY WILLIAMS vs. \u201cTHE MERCENARY\u201d FLIP GORDON \u2013 LAST MAN STANDING<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Bateman showed up and powerbombed Williams through a table.\u00a0 Williams failed to make the ten count.<\/p>\n<p>WINNER: Flip Gordon in 16:44.<\/p>\n<p><em>(Pageot\u2019s Perspective:\u00a0 I am so over ROH including a street fight on every single show this year.\u00a0 They can call them last man standing or barroom brawl or no disqualification but it&#8217;s all the same thing with the same weapons at the end of the day.\u00a0 The crowd was lukewarm at best for new signee Bateman.\u00a0 In their defense he&#8217;s only appeared once before in ROH, defeating Jake Atlas at<\/em> Death Before Dishonor: Fallout <em>on September 28 and then laying out Williams after his victory over Gordon later in the night.\u00a0 Beyond those appearances we know nothing about who he is.\u00a0 Also Soldiers Of Savagery literally debuted the same way, attacking Lifeblood on multiple occasions, and that went nowhere and never even led to a match.<\/em>)<\/p>\n<p>-TK O&#8217;Ryan and Vincent Marseglia were found unconscious backstage again.\u00a0 Taven showed up and asked ROH staff what happened.\u00a0 Matt Taven&#8217;s mystery stalker has struck again!<\/p>\n<p>Taven hit the ring and asked for a mic.\u00a0 The lights went out.\u00a0 A spotlight lit up the ring and Marseglia attacked Taven from behind.\u00a0 He sliced open Taven&#8217;s forehead with his hatchet.\u00a0 Luau music played, the lights came up, and his red balloons floated to the ceiling.\u00a0 The camera did some weird zoom-ins and outs as Marseglia licked Taven&#8217;s blood off his finger and drew a heart on his own forehead.\u00a0 The commentators said security were too busy backstage tending to O&#8217;Ryan and Williams.\u00a0 Marseglia hit Taven with the handle of his ax and left.<\/p>\n<p><em>(Pageot\u2019s Perspective:\u00a0 &#8220;The Fiend&#8221; Vincent Marseglia.)<\/em><\/p>\n<p>-Villain Enterprises (Marty Scurll &amp; PCO) were out first for the main event.\u00a0 Brody King&#8217;s replacement partner was Dan Maff.\u00a0 (Maff was around in the very early days of ROH and won the tag titles twice with BJ Whitmer.\u00a0 Riccaboni said it had been at least 13 years since he&#8217;d appeared in ROH.)\u00a0 Fans were able to vote for their three challengers from a list that included Shaheem Ali, PJ Black, Beer City Bruiser, Colt Cabana, Dalton Castle, Cheeseburger, Jeff Cobb, Caprice Coleman, Delirious, Dak Draper, Joe Hendry, Eli Isom, Kenny King, LSG, Brian Milonas, Ryan Nova, Matt Taven, Rhett Titus, Josh Woods, and Silas Young.\u00a0 Cabana was out first.\u00a0 Cobb was the second man, forced into doing double duty due to his popularity.\u00a0 Cheeseburger was the third and final man.<\/p>\n<p><em>(Pageot\u2019s Perspective: Confirmed &#8211; Cheeseburger is more popular than The Bouncers, Taven, Castle, Hendry, and Kenny King.)<\/em><\/p>\n<p><strong>(7) VILLAIN ENTERPRISES (Marty Scurll, PCO, &amp; Dan Maff) vs. CHEESEBURGER, JEFF COBB, &amp;

Villain Enterprises in 16:53 to retain the six-man titles.<\/p>\n<p><em>(Pageot\u2019s Perspective:\u00a0 Maff takes on PCO tomorrow night at <\/em>ROH Unauthorized<em>, our final show before\u00a0<\/em>Final Battle<em>.\u00a0 Tomorrow could very well be the final ROH appearance for Scurll but the six-man titles are not on the line.\u00a0 How will ROH get out of this one?\u00a0 Is it as simple as swapping Maff in for Scurll and handing him a title in December?\u00a0 A dark match job out like how PCO &amp; Brody King lost the NWA tag titles?\u00a0 We&#8217;ll find out soon enough.<\/em><\/p>\n<p><em>Overall this show was fine, a tad more interesting than usual due to the fan voting stipulation, but none of the voting options really made any difference in the end.\u00a0 The Briscoes were retaining regardless of their opponents.\u00a0 Bateman would have attacked Williams no matter the match format.\u00a0 Like most ROH events this year in the end nothing really adds up to anything more than the results on paper and nothing feels particularly important or like we&#8217;re headed anywhere notable.\u00a0 It&#8217;s the reason I&#8217;ve stopped transcribing entire matches and just stuck to a summary format instead and the reason that there may be no ROH coverage of any kind on the PWTorch in 2020.)<\/em><\/p>\n<div class=\"pwtor-end-article-groups pwtor-entity-placement\" id=\"pwtor-2103000370\"><div id=\"pwtor-2598521993\"><div align=\"center\" data-freestar-ad=\"__336x280\" id=\"pwtorchcom_medrec_3\">\r\n  <script data-cfasync=\"false\" type=\"text\/javascript\">\r\n    freestar.config.enabled_slots.push({ placementName: \"pwtorchcom_medrec_3\", slotId: \"pwtorchcom_medrec_3\" });\r\n  <\/script>\r\n<\/div>\r\n\r\nTHANK YOU FOR VISITING<\/div><\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<div class=\"mh-excerpt\"><p>ROH THE EXPERIENCE NOVEMBER 2, 2019 PITTSBURGH, PA AT STAGE AE AIRED ON ROH HONOR CLUB REPORT BY HARLEY R.
