Nigel McGuinness vs Jerry Lynn ROH Supercard of Honor IV 4/3/09

Way better then it had the right to be and a good end to Nigel’s reign. Same arm vs arm story as Nigel/KENTA. Nigel’s selling was about the same as the KENTA match. Lynn’s selling was actually really damn good and there was sort of an odd charm to him doing cross armbreakers and London Dungeon’s to try to destroy Nigel’s arm. In writing this, the times I have liked a Nigel title match is when his no selling tendencies are controlled, has someone who can sell his arm work, or when Nigel’s is limited to the point when he is not controlling the majority of the match. Reason 3 is why I have liked the last two Nigel matches and for as crazy as it may seem, I’m going to give this a rewatch.
