I'm not a big review kinda guy so these will be very brief and unhelpful, but hey....that's what Kev's review is for, actually accomplishing something. First of all, Matt Stryker vs. Nigel McGuinness was quite possibly my favorite Stryker match. I'm not huge on him at all but I REALLY enjoyed this match. I'm a big Nigel fan, and both guys were really on in this match. Oh, and how awesome was it seeing Prazak in an ROH ring? Carnage Crew vs. Dunn and Marcos isn't about to win any match of the year awards or anything, but it was the type of match that's hard to find anything wrong with. Really just a good solid enjoyable tag match. CM Punk on commentary is brilliant. Some of the stuff he comes up with is absolutely hilarious, and he can then go right into really good play-by-play serious calling. I just got to the Good Times, Great Memories, and I didn't even watch it all yet because I just started laughing too hard (and I had to shut off the dryer so it would stop buzzing. If the first 30 minutes are any indication, this is going to be one HELL of a great tape.

Actually my review of Stage one was also Brief and unhelpful. Was it just me or was this one just extremely profane. Not that there is anything wrong with that.

Yeah, it sure was.....which made it all the funnier I think. It didn't get less funny from where I left off either. Also, anyone that used to watch ECW too, did Becky Bayless remind you of old Dawn Marie in the skit with Cabana? I thought she was pretty funny the interaction with Cabana was hilarious.
Also just watched Walters vs. Credible. Eh...not a bad match by any means, but also not a great match by any means. Just there I guess.

From earlier in the show which I forgot to write about, is it just me or does anyone else SERIOUSLY wish that "Chris Lovey" would learn how to say the word "piledriver"? I would be very pleased if someone would just teach him how...thank you.
Shelley vs. Jacobs vs. D. Daniels vs. Masada vs. Evans vs. Rave This was a fun 6-man, but I wasn't really as blown away as I was expecting to be. No real "holy sh*t" moments like I guess I was expecting from this sort of match. Rave did hit a VERY nice looking Shining Wizard style knee on Masada, and Daniels really looked on top of his game.
Cabana vs. Whitmer I really can't say much about this because unfortunately I fell asleep early on and woke up for about the last 30 seconds. It definitely was a really good finish though, and I also saw them brawling through the stands a bit.
Sydal vs. Delirious Good match, nothing wrong with it really, but not the best I've seen from either guy by any means. They weren't given as much time as they're probably used to working with each other so that could have affected the match too. Nevertheless, both guys looked good, and Delirious is really becoming one of my favorites just from his actions and "words" in the ring. And yet more classic commentary from Punk, regarding Daizee Haze. "Look at that girl, she needs to eat! Someone get her a meal!"

You know, I'd actually been thinking about getting this show UNTIL I saw that that match was on there. *shudder*

They had really good interaction at a 4 way i'd seen earlier, so i'd imagine this can't be that bad.

Oh...uh....actually no. I was just going to say yes, then I realized I haven't. Holy sh*t.....can't believe I forgot that. I got taping it for some people and stuff and just completely forgot. Guess I'll be doing that soon. Oh, and I've also got Stage 2 coming in now.

Woowwww...someone please help me, I've definitely officially lost my mind. I was just thinking about it and realized I HAVE finished this show. Granted I wouldn't be able to really remember too much about the last few matches to comment on them, but...yeah, I did finish it. LOL
