Jimmy Jacobs vs Bryan Danielson ROH Full Circle 1/16/09

This was good, but it took too long to get going. Jacobs was getting owned by Bryan so he had to resort to his heelery to get his advantages. Whether it be because Jacobs stuff didn’t register with me or I wasn’t convinced that Bryan would fall for his stuff, the first part left me disconnected. Bryan (accidentally or purposely) messed his leg up doing a springboard maneuver and Jacobs went after it. It got better, but I still don’t think Jacobs was doing anything to bring this to the next level despite Bryan’s outstanding selling (or was in pain). I could give it another look, but this just wasn’t great enough. No.
