And it was from this past Monday.
One of the best matches I've seen in the last 5 years. And I've been to a LOT of ROH and indy shows. But this, this blew them away. The went all out balls to the wall here. And it shows.
I don't see any matches topping this this year.

That was a really good match. Punk is a strong dude for his size man, he was putting Cena up on his back like nothing.
And then the piledriver. It takes strength to do that right and not hurt the other guy, I was impressed. Impressed with Cena to, he's agile for a big guy. Great match man, thanks.

That piledriver was even more impactful because it's been banned for years now.

I honestly thought Punk had him when he hit that. Can't remember the last time I saw that move used in WWE. I can't believe they gave away that match for free when it was easily a ppv main event caliber match. I doubt anything else will be this good either. These 2 really work well together.

As a person that doesn't watch very often, at least not the current product, I was really impressed with the way Punk handled himself against a much bigger Cena.
Punk must be deceptively strong, because he lifted Cena a few times like it was nothing.
I've liked Punk for a while, and used to tell Nick that on the show. He's kind of like Austin, does things his way.
I like him more now.

That match should have main evented WrestleMania. There is no way in hell any match on that card has any chance of matching that. WWE was having some good matches this year so far, but this, this crushed them all.

That one was a blast. If they had more matches like that and less...crap, I'd probably watch more often.

I'd feel better about watching every week.

I wish more matches felt like this. Not even so much that it was a long match (especially by WWE standards), but the pacing, tension and feeling that either guy could have gotten the win.

And that crowd reaction. That really helped add to the dynamic. It felt like a lot of the matches we've enjoyed in ROH, particularly Nigel vs Bryan.

Oh man, the crowd was great. I haven't heard a WWE crowd that loud for a while.
