ROH champion Cody Rhodes & Young Bucks & Adam Page vs. ROH Tag Team champions The Motor City Machineguns & Jay White & Jonathan Gresham.

Lots of big reactions for Bullet Club.  There was a big "F*** the Revival" chant as well as "Cease and Desist."  Seek and Destroy did a spot where they all did the Too Sweet hand symbol and that enraged the Club and started a big brawl.  Lots of big spots.  Adam Page was on a tear hitting all his big spots.  Jay White suplexed him into the buckles and tagged in Gresham.  Gresham nailed a stunner and an enziguiri before dropping him on the back of his head with a suplex.

Cody ht the ring and nailed CrossRhodes.  Everyone hit the ring and hit big spot after big spot.  Machineguns whipped out the Dream Sequence.  They turned it into a sequence where everyone from BC got their opponents in Sharpshooters but Jay White had Cody in one.  The others dropped their moves and hit a triple superkick, allowing Cody to join them as all four locked in the moves.  Bullet Club wiped out everyone, leaving Gresham alone in a four on one.

Gresham fought valiantly and even told them to "suck it", leading to him being wiped out and hit with the Rite of Passage by Page for the pin.

Your winners, Bullet Club!

A spectacle as much as a rallying cry for Bullet Club.  No way I could recap it all live.  Super entertaining for spots and if you are fans of the BC, this was for you.  There's no denying how hot the act is at this level

One Mean Team (with Miss Jasmin) vs. The Dawgs

The Dawgs are Rhett Titus and Will Ferrara doing a gimmick where Rhett is the big dog and Ferrara is the smaller one who gets used as an offensive weapon.  This was about spotlighting them and even teasing perhaps they aren't really on the same page.    They had some great double team moves, almost Midnight Express-like in terms of unique offense. 

Your winners, The Dawgs!

After the match, Jay Briscoe hit the ring and beat the hell out of One Mean Team.  Jay took the mic and said he was here to address one person - his brother Mark.  He said that he told him they needed to get back to "doing what they do" and being the best tag team on the planet.  He said Mark has been worrying about singles matches and titles and six man tag team titles and all it got him was sitting home with a busted elbow.   He told Mark to ice the elbow and come back quick because it's time for the Briscoes to "take this sh** over."

Shane Taylor came out and announced he was Mark Briscoe's replacement.

Jay Lethal & Shane Taylor & ROH TV champ Kenny King vs. Minoru Suzuki & IWGP Tag Team champions The Killer Elite Squad.

 

Suzuki-Gun attacked Team ROH before the bell and everyone brawled.  Who didn't see that coming?   They fought all over ringside.    This all built to Lethal and Suzuki facing off. They faced off, wary of each other and exchanged stiff slaps.  It all broke down into everyone fighting all over the ringside area again.  This led to Lethal and Suzuki getting back into the ring, exchanging strikes and chops as the challenged the other to bring it stronger.  Suzuki was hilarious laughing off the shots as if he loved them.  He finally kicked Lethal so hard he sent him sailing backwards through the ropes to the floor.

Archer tagged in and slammed Lethal down on his face.  Smith tagged in and nailed a superplex for a two count but Shane Taylor broke it up.  Suzuki-Gun continued to maul Lethal until he was able to tag out to Kenny King.  King nailed a pair of running knee strikes in the corner on Archer but was caught with a powerslam.  King caught him with a spinebuster for a two count.   King was able to nail a corkscrew dive to the floor on Archer.

Suzuki and Taylor tag in.  Taylor wipes him out with a shoulderblock and a big splash in the corner.  He nailed a sideslam and a splash for a two count.  The Killer Elite Squad brawled on the floor with King and Lethal.  Suzuki grabbed a choke and tried to transition into the Gotch piledriver but Taylor backdropped him.  The Killer Elite Squad attacked and went for a double powerbomb but Lethal and King hit the ring and they battled back to the floor.

Taylor drilled Suzuki with several forearms but Suzuki caught him with the choke.  He failed to get the Gotch piledriver again but escaped a DVDR.  Taylor was choked out and nailed with the piledriver and pinned.

Your winner, Minoru Suzuki & The Killer Elite Squad!

Entertaining brawl, but I was hoping for more between Lethal and Suzuki.  They were trying really hard to elevate Taylor and show that he could hang.  You have to love Minoru Suzuki.

Suzuki attacked referee Paul Turner and tossed him out of the ring.  Suzuki took the mic to put his team over.
