La Revancha! McNEILL previews ROH's Showdown In The Sun! By Pat McNeill, PWTorch columnist Wake the pets and call the neighbors. It's time for our semi-monthly ROH internet pay-per-view preview column! DISCLAIMER: Projections are made by myself and for myself with absolutely no assistance from James E. Cornette, Gary Juster or The Man With The Lizard Face. No one knows the contents of these projections, but I, in my divine and mystical way, will ascertain the finishes to these matches while being several months behind on my Ring of Honor DVD's. Some of our departing contestants will receive new Blue Lustre Plus carpet shampoo, with grease cutters and brighteners to remove ground-in grime. Remember, this is only an exhibition. This is not a competition. Please, please, no wagering. This lineup is based on the best available information as of this writing. The big news going into tonight's show is...Oh, just watch the ROH Video Wire. It's less typing for me. Plus, you can watch Prince Nana's attempt to get more views for The Embassy's Flickr page. On with the projections for tonight's show! I have no idea what the dark match will be for this show, but I hope Chris Silvio is involved. Caprice Coleman & Cedric Alexander vs. Charlie Haas & Shelton Benjamin: The C&C Wrestling Factory has been fun as a lowercard tag team on ROH television. Haas and Benjamin aren't exactly fun, but they're darned good heels. Projection? Shelton hits Coleman with Paydirt, and Wrestling's Greatest get their win back. Jay Briscoe & Mark Briscoe vs. Mikey Nicholls & Shane Haste (Non-title): Yeah, right. Projection? The Briscoes hit the Doomsday Device on Nicholls, and Mark Briscoe scores the fall. Next! The All Night Express vs. The Young Bucks (Street Fight): The first half of the Dual Duel is a brawl. Amazingly, that should favor Titus and King. Projection? A good old-fashioned bloodbath ending with King hitting Nick Jackson with the Coronation for the victory. El Generico vs. Kevin Steen: Generico vs. Steen was Ring of Honor's biggest feud of 2010, and they're meeting again fifteen months later. However, only one of these two wrestlers is advertised for Saturday's show. Projection? Steen hits the F5 and beats Generico this time, which conveniently sets up his match with Eddie Edwards on Saturday. Jay Lethal vs. Kyle O'Reilly (ROH Television Title): Angry Kyle O'Reilly is angry going into this big title match. Lethal does a great job of carrying himself like a big wrestling star, one trick that he probably picked up from the Macho Man and Ric Flair. Projection? O'Reilly falls short, eating the Lethal Combination. Lance Storm vs. "The Prodigy" Mike Bennett (w/ Maria Kanellis): It's always good to see the former U.S. champion on the big, er, little stage of Ring of Honor. Mike Bennett is a guy who needs some gravitas. This match is exactly what it looks like. Projection? Maria distracts referee Paul Turner, and Bennett hits a low blow to defeat the Canadian legend. Davey Richards vs. Eddie Edwards vs. Roderick Strong (ROH World Title): On the Video Wire, Roderick Strong talked about the being a full-time ROH wrestler, as opposed to Davey Richards, who is "never here" due to his Japan commitments. Really? We're going THERE? In Ring of Honor? Projection? After a lengthy struggle, Davey catches Roderick with the D.R. Driver and keeps the ROH title. Aftermath: On Saturday night, it's Part Two. Let's take Fire Ant over T.J. Perkins, O'Reilly over Cole, The Bucks over the ANX, The Briscoes over Haas & Benjamin, Strong over Lethal, Steen over Edwards and Richards over Elgin. *** Pat McNeill of Richmond, Va. has been a Torch columnist since February 2001. He asks you to support your local independent wrestling promotion, because that's where you'll see the superstars of tomorrow and the washed-up has-beens of yesteryear. |

watch the Elgin vs Richards match. About 1:35:00 of night 2. MOTY so far easily. Nigel is also already the best announcer in wrestling. |
