Reaction of Honor Quickie 05.04.2013 (Richards, Elgin, Karl Anderson)

Reviews, Shows, Top Story, TV Shows, Webshows

The Glimpse:

Prince Nana is on commentary.  “Machinegun” Karl Anderson is on Ring of Honor television taking on Michael Elgin.  Davey Richards reignites his rivalry with Kyle O’Reilly.  This is an absolute must see episode of Ring of Honor television.  It’s a Reaction Quickie this week, kids.

The Action:

Match 1: “Machinegun” Karl Anderson vs Michael Elgin

Winner:  “Machinegun” Karl Anderson via pinfall

This is a “quickie” Reaction for a reason – You do yourself a disservice by not watching this match.

Match 2:  Davienne vs MsChif

Winner:  No contest

Very short action then Veda Scott attacks MsChif from behind.  Likely to lead to Veda taking a more physical role in ROH.

Match 3: Davey Richards vs Kyle O’Reilly

Winner:  Davey Richards via submission

Davey and Kyle have what’s become their kind of “usual” match.  Given, it’s PPV quality because of how hard they hit, how long they go and all the stops they pull out, but if you only have time for one match from ROH this week, go with Anderson/Elgin.  One thing I can’t help but point out – O’Reilly hits an amazing transition into a Regalplex in this match and I went absolutely nuts for it.

The Reaction:

This one’s truncated because house hunting is a god-forsaken, all encompassing, life-sucking process.

My reaction, especially having been at the taping, is that you are to watch this episode.  Find it, consume it.

The Preview:

None given.
