ROH on HDNet, April 11 2009
Ref isn’t miked at all during this show, again. Looks like they gave up on that pretty early. Unfortunate.
Crowd heckles Aries early on with “Austin Asshole!” and “You tapped out!” before his match. Omega gets way more offense than I expected, and this is a good little match. Aries hits a wicked looking dropkick in the corner near the end before the brainbuster to bring this to a satisfying conclusion. I think I want to see some more from Omega.
Continuity fun! Jerry Lynn is interviewed, the week after they announced him winning the title, without the title.
Ernie Osiris is a “panhandler and known thief.” Well, I think that’s a never-done-before gimmick! Comedy early, then Delirious wins with Shadows Over Hell. Not much here.
Del Ray and Haze look better in the tag team match than in the singles match they had on the show a few weeks ago. Don’t see a lot from Sassy Stephie, but Nevaeh looked kay in the time she was in the ring.
Jerry Lynn and Brodie Lee go David vs. Goliath, as expected. Jacobs throws in some interference, but berates Lee when Lynn manages to roll him up for the three count. After seeing this match, I want to see some more from Lee, too.
