Recap from TJ Hawke:

Cage bailed to the floor early.  Cage came back to the ring, and they started trading strikes.  O’Riley hit a standing shooting star press for an early nearfall.  O’Riley hit a diving cross-body for another nearfall, and Cage bailed to the floor again.  O’Riley hit an Undertaker suicida! Cage ended up back in the ring. O’Riley went for slingshot DDT, but Cage blocked it. Cage finally cut him off with a high kick to the back of the head.  Cage started to get the heat.  Cage locked in a STF, but O’Riley managed to make the ropes.  O’Riley came back with an enzugiri and a bulldog.  O’Riley went for a handspring move, but Cage caught him and hit a Blue Thunder Bomb: 1…2…NO!  Cage went for a Gibson Driver, but O’Riley reversed it into a hurricanrana.  O’Riley then hit an inverted C4! O’Riley followed that with a buzzsaw kick and a handspring moonsault.  O’Riley then hit a slingshot DDT!  The commentator said that was his finisher.  O’Riley set up for a running move, but Cage blocked it. O’Riley then hit the Skull Crushing Finale.  They ended up on the ring apron, where Cage hit a backbreaker.  Cage hit a sole butt and a lariat: 1…2…NO!  Cage locked in a Coquina Clutch style submission.  O’Riley stood out of it, but Cage brought him back to the mat with the clutch still locked in.  O’Riley almost passed out, but he didn’t.  O’Riley did the Hart/Austin Survivor Series 1996 rollup: 1…2…NO!  Cage went for a TKO move (I think), but O’Riley avoided it and hit a discus Brogue Kick: 1…2…Foot on the ropes!  Cage blocked another discus Brogue kick and hit a Tiger Driver: 1…2…3.

 

This was a really good match that hopefully didn’t burn out the crowd since they did a lot nearfalls for an opener.  Joey O’Riley impressed the hell out of me here. I am very interested to see what he does in the future. I’m more familiar with Cage, so I already knew he was talented, but I’d be lying if I didn’t say that I was hoping for O’Riley to win the match by the end.

Match Rating: ***1/2

About TJ Hawke

TJ was a fan of wrestling as a kid (starting around 1999), and his first concrete wrestling memory is some kid bringing Hulk Hogan his old yellow and red gear backstage during an episode of Nitro. Hogan needed the gear to defeat Kevin Nash in a title vs. career match at the next WCW PPV. Nash lost the match and his career, which sadly resulted in the world losing out on seeing Kevin Nash matches for the last 13 years. Like almost all young kids, TJ’s interest in wrestling fluctuated over the years until an episode of Raw on July 3, 2006. TJ was curious and excited to see his beloved RVD show up with the WWE Title belt and what he thought was the revitalized European title. TJ decided he must turn to the the internet to figure out what was going on. Almost 6 years later, TJ is still searching the internet every day to find out what is going on in wrestling. Now though, he writes for the pop culture site (411mania.com), has his own blog (The Best of Chikara), and is the creator of the very site you are reading now.
