ROH Episode #403 Review: LifeBlood Makes a Challenge

James Storm vs. Colt Cabana

Interesting match between to veteran performers.  Early on in the match, the two wrestlers felt each other out.  Colt was able to get the upper hand by out-wrestling Storm.  Storm grew a little more frustrated each time Colt stifled him. Eventually, Storm started brawling to take the advantage.

After some last-call superkicks, Storm hooked in the Texas Cloverleaf.  Time expired as Storm had the hold locked in.  When the bell rang, Storm thought he had won.  He grabbed the belt and started heading to the back.  Cabana told him it was still his belt, but he’d give him 5 more minutes.

Instead of the match re-starting, the Briscoes hit the ring and attacked Cabana.  After a quick promo against the NWA, the Briscoes then pointed at Aldis who was sitting at commentary.  Aldis came down to the ring.  There was a brawl with the Briscoes standing tall.

It has since been announced, Cabana and Aldis will face off against the Briscoes at Best in the World.  The match between Storm and Cabana was fine.  It wasn’t spectacular, but was a solid opening TV match.  Because of the angle after the match, Storm came off looking like an afterthought.
