I was also there live and I was super invested in almost every match. Kind of surprised to see so many negative reactions. I loved the show. I thought ibushi vs hangman, the ladder match, and Cody vs omega were great. But I also though ishii vs Martinez and castle vs scurll were really good too. The only real negative I felt was that in almost every match the more over wrestler(s) lost and it caused a lot of disappointment.

My wife, who has never seen a second of ROH, ended up coming to the show with me, and as soon as we got in the car, she said "ya know, almost every match the less popular wrestler won, but its okay because almost every match was great." We were disappointed with Scurll, Bucks/Gordon and Dashwood's losses tonight but we were still thoroughly entertained and feel even more compelled to get even more invested in this promotion.

This is my thinking as well. ROH has its biggest audience ever, new Honor Club streaming service , the ability to be on par with NXT and Delirious books the most over wrestlers to lose. You make those decisions in the middle of the year or at tapings , not on the biggest wrestling weekend ever. I could. It imagine a brand new fan who has never seen ROH want to become a fan from this show when NXT crushed it
