Bruiser in as well, as the Bouncers take control sand hit the veg-o-matic for the win.

Rayne fights back with off with her hear for the win. Madison Rayne defeated Thunder Rosa @ 9:18 via pin [**] This was a bit disjointed and never really felt locked in; it was ok at best.

Romero again fights to his feet and follows with a dropkick. Sabre quickly attacks the leg and again takes Romero down.

Sabre locks in the grounded cobra twist and Romero taps.

The 411
This week’s ROH TV was a very typical post PPV show, It’s taped before the PPV, so it showcases no fallout, and while solid, was a mixed bag overall.
