Yehi and Williams were in the stable Catch Point together, so that means they&#8217;re both great technical wrestlers and they know each other well. That led to lots and lots of great sequences of holds and counters. There were also some explosive moments with strikes and slams, and the combination of grappling, striking, and slamming was extremely fun to watch. Williams seemed to have a better grasp of the rules, or he was at least more cognizant of them throughout the match, and that gave Williams a big advantage later in the match.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\"><em>Ring Area<\/em><\/span><br \/>\nEC3 heads to the ring. EC3 wonders if honor is real, because there is no honor in what we do. Every day honor is taken from of us, and we continually lose our purpose. Is there honor in finding purpose? Is there honor in the past (i.e. former ROH wrestlers)? Is there honor in the now (i.e. present ROH wrestlers)? EC3 is here to fight anybody and everybody. He is willing to purify himself through pain.<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\"><em>Backstage<\/em><\/span><br \/>\nShane Taylor confronts EC3 backstage, and he feels like EC3 isn&#8217;t showing him the proper respect in his house. The Briscoes walk up and get in Taylor&#8217;s face. ROH is Taylor&#8217;s house? EC3 watches as everyone argues and a six man tag match is made.<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\"><em>Video<\/em><\/span><br \/>\nA look at Josh Woods and PJ Black&#8217;s wins in the previous round.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\"><strong>Match 2<\/strong><\/span><br \/>\n<strong>ROH Pure Tournament Block Semifinal Match<\/strong><br \/>\n<strong>Josh &#8220;The Goods&#8221; Woods<\/strong> w\/ Silas Young <strong>vs PJ Black<\/strong> w\/ Brian Johnson<br \/>\n(referee: Joe Mandak)<\/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_69e7380929c6f','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_69e7380929c6f\" 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_69e7380929c6f\">');<\/script>\n<\/p>\n<p><strong>Result: Josh Woods wins via submission with an ankle lock<\/strong><br \/>\n<strong>Time: 13:27<\/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 \/>\nVery good match. Woods definitely seemed to have a better showing in the grappling department, but Black had some good counters throughout the match. Black was also a bit better standing up face to face.
