ROH Edison house show results.

Match #1

Eddie Kingston def. Ricky Reyes with a Spinning Backfist. Decent match. Afterwards, Chris Hero comes out and cuts a promo, saying Kingston isn't even in the same League as hero.

Match #2

Brent Albright def. Super Smash Brothers (Player Uno and Player Dos) after Albright pinned Player Dos after a half nelson suplex. Fun match that got decent time. Super Smash Brothers got a "Please Come Back" chant from the crowd.

Match #3

Chris Hero w/ Shane Hagadorn def. Sonjay Dutt after a loaded Big Boot. Short, innoffensive match, but nothing special. Dutt didn't really get much of a reaction.

Match #4

Necro Butcher and Delirious def. Claudio Castagnoli and Jimmy Rave w/ Prince Nana when Delirious rolled up Rave.

This was a fun match. When Jimmy made his entrance, he was nailed with what had to be at least 60 rolls of toilet paper. Story of the match was Necro wanting to get in the ring with Jimmy, but it never happened. Finish came when Jimmy hit Necro with a chair, only to enrage him. He went to hit him again, Necro punched the chair out of his hands, and Delirious went in with a rollup for the pin.

Intermission occured, and the meet and greet featured Jerry Lynn, Delirious, Jay Briscoe, and Erick Stevens.

Match #5

Kenny King and Rhett Titus defeated Grizzly Redwood and Alex Payne after their Powerbomb/Blockbuster combo. Redwood was shoeless for some reason. Decent match but nothing special.

Match #6

Colt Cabana def. Joey Ryan w/ Prince Nana with the Inverted Boston Crab.

Fun match here, filled with a lot of comedy spots.

Match #7

ROH World Tag Team Championship Match

American Wolves (Eddie Edwards and Davey Richards w/ Shane Hagadorn) def. Bryan Danielson and Kevin Steen when Edwards tapped Danielson with the Half Crab

Really good match, with lots of ringside brawling before it even got underway. They worked Danielson's leg the entire match, and Kevin Steen got thrown through a table very early on.

Match #8

ROH World Championship Match

Jerry Lynn def. Jay Briscoe w/ Mark Briscoe with a Cradle Tombstone Piledriver

A decent match, though one idiot heckler kept giving Lynn shit during the whole match. They kicked out of each others finishers near the end, then Jerry hit the Tombstone outta nowhere for the pin. After the match, Lynn cut a promo putting over both Briscoes huge, and then told the asshole fan that if he doesn't like what they're doing in the ring, he can shut the f up and go watch his WWE.

Overall the show was a pretty good one. Nothing absolutely blow away but none of the matches sucked.
