Excalibur welcomes us to the show and he runs down the list of tag teams competing tonight.
1. Opening Round Match: LTP & Johnny Goodtime vs. The Young Bucks (C). This was a great way to open up the show. To start out the match the Young Bucks hit their opponents with the tag team belts. The Bucks used heel tactics through out the match and the fans were behind LTP & Goodtime through out. These two teams went spot for spot until the Young Bucks won after they hit LTP with multiple Superkicks. ***1/2
2. Opening Round Match: Paul London & El Generico vs. Scott Lost & Chuck Taylor. Paul London came out with a Poncho and a Mega Phone. Lost & Taylor had the advantage early on. Then London & Generico made their comeback. Through out the match London was talking smack on the Mega Phone and he set an alarm off with it. All hell broke lose at the end of the match but it was London & Generico getting the win after Generico hit Lost with a Brainbuster and London hit Taylor with a Shooting Star Press. ***
3. Opening Round Match: The Cutler Brothers vs. Roderick Strong & Ryan Taylor. This was a decent match I couldn't get into it. Ryan Taylor was in for majority of the match and I could careless about him. The commentary was very good in this match which kept my interest in the match. The Cutlers got the win after they hit Ryan Taylor with the Spike Tombstone. **1/4
4. Opening Round Match: The Briscoe Brothers vs. YAMATO & Akira Tozawa. I enjoyed YAMATO & Tozawa as they stood out from the rest of the teams. During the match Tozawa got pants by a Briscoe. These two teams went back and fourth as things got interesting at the end. The Briscoe Brothers won after they hit Tozawa with the Doomsday Device. ***1/4
5. Semi-Final Match: The Young Bucks (C) vs. The Cutler Brothers. Before the action started the Bucks taunted a fan in the front row and majority of the people were behind the Cutlers. This match started out with the Bucks in control but the Cutlers came back and the match broke down as these teams went back and fourth and it looked like the Cutlers were on the verge of winning after they hit the Spike Tombstone but the pin was broken up. The Young Bucks managed to hold on for the victory as they hit the More Bang for Your Buck. ***3/4
6. Semi-Final Match: El Generico & Paul London vs. The Briscoe Brothers. This was a hard hitting match and I was somewhat disappointed by this match. This should have been better. Nothing much to say about this match. The end came when the Briscoe's were going for the Doomsday Device on El Generico but Generico ducked and rolled up Jay Briscoe for the win. **3/4
7. Chris Hero vs. Brandon Bonham. This is the only singles match of the night and it's good to see Chris Hero wrestle on a PWG show. These two went hold for hold, chop for chop, and kick for kick. Hero got the win after he hit Bonham with an elbow and the Hero's Welcome. ***1/2
8. DDT4 2010 Final Match: The Young Bucks (C) vs. El Generico & Paul London. Not much of a surprise that these two made the finals. This was your typical heel Young Bucks match. The Young Bucks wanted to walk out but the ref wouldn't allow it. Then they tried to get DQed but that didn't work. The Young Bucks hit Generico with the More Bang for Your Buck but he kicked out. El Generico hit Nick Jackson with a top turnbuckle Brainbuster. ****1/4
Don't get me wrong this is a good and enjoyable show but last years show was way better and I had higher expectations for this show. The finals were great but you could skip the rest of the show. I think the lack of Richards hurt the show as well. I feel the depth of teams could have been greater as well. I could rate this lower but I won't.
Overall Score: 8/10
