Lio Rush is an awful lot of fun to watch. He&#8217;s tiny, especially when in the ring with someone as tall as Dijak, but he runs and jumps and strikes extremely quickly. He had a lot of combinations and leaps that, when added up, made it believable that he could beat someone who appears to be twice his size. All the time though, it seemed like one big move from Dijak could finish it. This match had a really great false finish that made a good match even better.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\"><em>Ring Area<\/em><\/span><br \/>\nAfter the match, Dijak and Nana attack Rush. Jay White comes out to help Rush, but Kamaitachi also comes out and attacks White. Eventually security breaks up the brawl.<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\"><em>Backstage<\/em><\/span><br \/>\nDalton Castle is interrupted by The Cabinet.

Page wants the IWGP Tag Titles, but he also has a personal problem with Jay Briscoe. Jay Briscoe quickly heads to the ring and attacks Page.<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\"><em>Ring Area<\/em><\/span><br \/>\nThe Addiction says there will be no ROH Tag Title match since everyone seems to be injured. Roppongi Vice says they&#8217;re healthy, why not have a tag title match with them? The Young Bucks come out and suggest a three way dance.<\/p>\n<p>Nigel McGuinness says The Addiction already has a contract with War Machine and the Motor City Machine Guns, so he can&#8217;t make a title match tonight. But, he does make a number one contender match between Roppongi Vice and the Young Bucks, the winner getting a title match in two weeks.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\"><strong>Match 2<\/strong><\/span><br \/>\n<strong>ROH Tag Title Number One Contender Match<\/strong><br \/>\n<strong>Roppongi Vice vs The Young Bucks<\/strong><br \/>\n(referee: Todd Sinclair; guest commentary: The Addiction [replacing McGuinness])<\/p>\n<!-- Content Reveal v2.3.1 -->\n<div class=\"scrhead\" onmouseover=\"document.body.style.cursor='pointer'\" onmouseout=\"document.body.style.cursor='default'\" onclick=\"acr_swap_display('ran_69e5eabede9c4','0','','')\">\n<script type=\"text\/javascript\">document.writeln('<img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/cnjradio.com\/blog\/wp-content\/plugins\/simple-content-reveal\/images\/image1.gif\" class=\"scrimg\" id=\"scrimg_ran_69e5eabede9c4\" alt=\"Reveal content\" title=\"Reveal content\"\/>');<\/script> Show\/Hide Results\n<\/div>\n<script type=\"text\/javascript\">document.writeln('<div style=\"display: none\" class=\"scrdiv\" id=\"scrdiv_ran_69e5eabede9c4\">');<\/script>\n<\/p>\n<p><strong>Result: Matt Jackson pins Beretta with a crucifix pin<\/strong><br \/>\n<strong>Time: 11:17<\/strong> (1 break)<\/p>\n<p><script type=\"text\/javascript\">document.writeln('<\/div>');<\/script>\n<!-- End of Content Reveal -->\n\n<p><strong>Match Thoughts<\/strong><br \/>\nGood match.

Cole says that he runs the show, and he&#8217;ll prove it by taking Lethal&#8217;s title. He&#8217;s not out to steal the show, he&#8217;s out to steal the title.<\/p>\n<p>Lethal says that nearly every match he&#8217;s ever had in Ring of Honor has been about an ROH World Championship. This match is personal though. He&#8217;s going to Las Vegas to fight. Lethal signs. As Cole signs, Lethal drops scissors on the table.
