I am about to attempt to put words to the performance I witnessed on April 3rd at the Grady Cole center in Charlotte NC put on by the wrestlers of the Ring of Honor promotion's Big Bang 2010 iPPV including results to each match.
The opening contest of the night was a match between Carolina wrestlers NWA National Champion Phil Shatter and Zack Salvation. I have had the pleasure of watching these guys perform before and I can say much like the other matches I've seen them in they put on a great showcase of their individual talents, with Phil Shatter defeating Salvation by way of pinfall.
The second match, a pick six match, between Kenny King and Davey Richards was an exciting display of not only innovative grappling and high impact technical wrestling but a great match playing to the resiliency and endurance of both King and Richards with Richards winning by submission and taking the number 5 spot in the pick six. After the match Christopher Daniels made his return to the Ring of Honor confronting and challenging Richards to a match.
The next match up of the night was our Butcher's Rules match, in which Necrobutcher would face off with embassy member Erick Stevens accompanied to the ring by Prince Nana in one of the least brutal matches the butcher has ever been in no staple gun no thumb tacks no blood just a section b sign and chant to go along with it disappointed it wasn't more violent but entertained overall with Necrobutcher winning via pinfall.
Then in a taste of lucha libre, Cassandro El Exotico faced off with Rhett Titus, pinning him to gain the win but gaining an injury to his leg in the process.
In our fifth match we saw the ever charismatic team of Colt Cabana and El Generico compete against Kevin Steen and Mr Wrestling III, The King of Old School, Steve Corino in a very entertaining grudge match in which Cabana and Generico defeated Steen and Corino. After the match Steen and Corino continue to beat Cabana, busting him open and causing the rampage of El Generico in which no victim was spared, ultimately ending with Grizzly Redwood eating one of Generico's famous brainbustaaaas and Cabana announcing that they would face off with Steen and Corino again on April 24 in a Chicago street fight.
The Briscoe Brothers lost their ROH tag team titles in the most grueling hard hitting matches of the night against The Kings of Wrestling Chris Hero and Claudio Castagnoli.
Tyler Black successfully defended his ROH World Title against Roderick Strong and Austin Aries in a three way dance first eliminating Strong then with assistance from Strong eliminating Aries.
We were the first fans to show up at the Grady Cole Center on this day and we were among the last to leave we arrived before many wrestlers even did, assisting Necrobutcher in finding where he was supposed to go and getting to meet and hang out with The Briscoe's, Colt Cabana and Necrobutcher also receiving props from Prince Nana for being the rowdiest fans of the night. We came equipted with signs(including; It's still real to me dammit,Fuck ICP and everyone who looks like ICP(which Jim Cornet got a kick out of) and GAMBIT 3:16) and ready to chant anything we felt this hands down was the best wrestling show I have ever been to.
