The Briscoes def. Danhausen and PCOThe Briscoes are being built up for a shot at the ROH World Tag Team Championship at Final Battle, so them winning here was hardly a surprise, especially since Danhausen and PCO clearly aren't meant to be a team for the long haul. That said, this was a very fun match with both teams working well together. Sledge attacking PCO at ringside gave him and Danhausen an out for losing. Unfortunately, this might be the last we see of Danhausen in action in Ring of Honor because he's currently injured and Final Battle is their final event for the foreseeable future.

Adam Cole and Bobby Fish def. Orange Cassidy and Wheeler YutaCole ditched Fish the last two times they teamed up, so I was worried they were already on the verge of breaking up. I'm glad that didn't happen and instead they remained a cohesive unit with Fish picking up the win for their team here. I'm not too high on Cole doing the comedy crap with a guy like Cassidy, but it didn't kill the match for me, which was enjoyable on the whole and had a nice pace. The outcome was the right one, though I'm not sure what it was supposed to accomplish unless we get Cole against Cassidy coming out of it.
Elektra Lopez def. Valentina FerozI've mentioned before that I like Lopez and her potential but wasn't a fan of her being pushed so quickly while she's still green. That said, 205 Live is the perfect place for her to hone her skills and improve. Feroz is a work in progress as well, but this was a perfectly passable match while it lasted. It sure seems like she's being positioned as the new leader of Legado del Fantasma with Santos Escobar taking a backseat, but I hope not.
Universal Champion Roman Reigns Addressed the AudienceThis was essentially every Reigns promo we've heard after every pay-per-view for the last year where he'll boast about beating a certain opponent and put the rest of the locker room on notice. At this point, though, he's pretty spot-on when he says that he's defeated a majority of the roster. This was the usual quality promo for him that did a decent job of hyping up the number one contender's Battle Royal later on in the night. At least it looks like Drew McIntyre, Jeff Hardy and Brock Lesnar are lined up to challenge for the championship eventually.
