Roderick Strong vs. Sami Callihan

[9.0] "This is the main event that the show absolutely needed. Two offensive machines beating and battering each other to their last limit for over 20 minutes. Even the interference was a bit different then usual and gave a new foil to Mount Rushmore. Both gladiators deserve massive credit for elevating the show and providing themselves with fuel for the next few shows."

[7.0] "As 'NastyYaffa' mentioned, Roddy in Resesa is prime Roddy. In fact I would go so far as to argue that as a character/persona, frat-boy Roddy has never been better developed/has never matured in the excellent way it had throughout his long tenure in PWG. ROH may have paid more of the bills but PWG is where his best championship run was at. Props to S Callihan also for delivering a main-event experience, his bottom-rope tope suicida was almost at the elite, prior to TNA/NXT Aries, level in what was billed not-to-be. With all of the cash Super D brings in, I wonder if SC/RS got a slight bump on their pay for going from the mid-card to the main event. Anyway, by main event time that building is typically a sweatbox, (and ironically Reseda is not the 'sweatbox' in PWG lore... that was Los Feliz's JCC) and the boys were practically slipping on each other and the ropes. However, at least there were a couple of 'booking extras' that made this feel like the main-event. 7. 25"

[8.0] "Roddy's heel shtick in Reseda is just simply so great, and in the ring he is one of the best in the world, and Callihan is no slouch either. Roddy always brings this feel of urgency in his matches & it especially works in the PWG environment. Both guys are quite explosive, and that really gelled well together. Roddy's heel work on top was awesome, Callihan's comebacks were timed well & all in all, they just had a very solid rasslin' match. ***1/2"

[8.0] "Just a really good match here and a good way to end the show as well. Loved the mind games by Roderick and that helped tell the story of the match as well. The explosiveness shown by both men was amazing and really intensified the match and so did the defiance showed by Callihan. I though the interjections of Cole and Castle worked here and the ending was really good and so was the match as a whole. (***3/4)"
