Jeff Cobb vs. Matt Riddle

[9.0] "Fantastic match between Riddle and Cobb here which lived up to all its promises for me and was as qualitative as I imagined it would be, seeing the overall rating of the inmates as well as the fact that Meltzer watched a match in PROGRESS just to praise it already gave me a lot of clues as to how awesome the match was and watching it I immediately understood why it received so much praise six years ago. Anything positive you read about this match, including my commentary, should force you to go see it as it's a match that I think is brilliant in its construction and action, two guys with diametrically opposed styles yet click so well together in the squared circle. But despite their opposite styles it was for me a pairing that would work for sure and they proved me right, the match is quite short but so complete in terms of substance and above all so fucking good so that time is anecdotal. A brilliant sprint and a great showcase for Cobb who received 'Please comeback' chants right after."

[10.0] "AWESOME. Those 2 really went into stiff and it was awesome in every sense. Those 2 have great chemistry as it was demonstrated in their tag team "the chosen bros""

[9.0] "Great match, these 2 just had almost perfect chemistry together. Suplexes, strikes, hard hitting, chops, hot crowd. Almost everything we needed for a must watch match."

[9.0] "Great match, these guys have obvious chemistry and it stands out. Throwing out intense offense and fun sequences and whipping the crowd into a frenzy, this one really worked for me."

[7.0] "Good match but not the best I've seen from these two guys... It had a frenetic pacing since the beginning and the lacking of selling at some point was kind of annoying for me. The finishing move was somwhat different of what I was expecting but it worked. It was still entertaining to watch, just for the fun ***1/2"

[9.0] "The two Chosen Bros throwing down was simply epic. These guys are two of the hottest wrestlers in the world so it is no surprise to see the positive reaction they both got from the crowd. Really liked the beginning where Riddle went for the running knee that took out Trent in 6 seconds, but Cobb avoided it. This was quite a short match which Riddle worked on top mostly, but then Cobb started throwing him around and that's when things got funny. It kind of became a typical indie match with no selling and move spam, but I much like those matches myself so I did not mind. Great match between two very big boys, ****1/2."

[9.0] "The match we knew these two could have since they interacted at BOLA last year. This match had everything: mat-based feeling out process, great strikes, awesome escalation, and an exceptional finishing stretch that felt like two legit athletes having a pro wrestling-style epic; there's no better two workers out there for that kind of match than Riddle & Cobb. Cobb is the kind of guy who can nosell something and still make it look like it hurt and not make his opponent look bad. The best match these two have had, and the best of the SSS16 2017 weekender. ****1/2"

[9.0] "This was a blast, an awesome sprint just like Ospreay vs Riddle match. Both man impressed me a lot during their previous matches and for their match against each other, i cannot waited for this. It delivered tremendously and had the crowd in the palm of their hands. (****1/2)"

[8.0] "A very good match - on par w/ their EVOLVE & AAW encounters. Some really cool sequences, stuff on the mat, great striking & neat power moves. Really all that you'd want from a Jeff Cobb vs. Matt Riddle match up. 2nd favorite tournament match of the night behind Jack Sexsmith vs. Zack Sabre Jr. ***1/2"
