Your winners and new ROH Tag Team Champions, Aussie Open!

So much going on, it was almost too much, but it was entertaining.

ROH Six-Man Tag Team Champions Brian Cage & Bishop Kaun & Toa Liona with Prince Nana vs. NJPW's Ryusuke Taguchi & Master Wato & Leon Ruffin.

Leon Ruffin was basically a sacrificial lamb early on here, almost to the point of it being comical.  They showed Big Bill backstage watching.  Ruffin was worked over and trapped in the Champs' corner for a long, long time.  Wato finally scored a tag and tried to turn the tide of battle.    Taguchi got involved and tricked the champions into careening into each other.  He locked an anklelock on Kaun.  Liona made the save but Wato wiped him off with a huge leaping elbow.  Cage nailed a 619.  Taguchi nailed one of his own.  Taguchi nailed a low kick on Jaun as Nana argued with the referee.  All enjoyable.

Ruffin nailed a leaping cutter on Cage and nailed a series of kicks on Liona. He went for a springboard crossbody but was caught and slammed, yet still kicked out.  They mauled and slammed Ruffin and scored the pin.

Your winners and still ROH Six Man Tag Team Champions The Mogul Embassy.

ROH Pure Wrestling Champion Katsuyori Shibata vs. Daniel Garcia

Good grappling early on and the battled on the floor.  Garcia used a rope break to escape a submission.  Garcia began doing the sports-entertainment gyrations to try and play mind games with Shibata.  Shibata nailed a big running dropkick in the corner.  He cinched in a sleeper but Garcia escaped and went for a Boston Crab.  Garcia went for an STF but Shibata turned it into a bow and arrow submission.  Shibata and Garcia battled over a series of suplexes before taking the other out.  The crowd loved it.   Garcia really took the fight to Shibata including some hard chops and back suplexes.  Shibata locked on the sleeper but Garcia did the gyrations.   He faded and was nailed with a running kick and pinned.

Your winner and still Pure Champion, Katsuyori Shibata!

This was easily the best Daniel Garcia match I've ever seen.  Really hard fought bout and as goofy as the gyrations are, the crowd popped for them.

Shibata tried to do the Code of Honor but Garcia gave him the finger.  Shibata grabbed it and forced him to acquiese.
