#15 Kenny Omega vs. Cody, ROH: Supercard of Honor XII
With the elements in place, this should have been the match of the night. The civil war within the Bullet Club faction has been the most compelling story, going into this year.
Add to that the immense potential and improvement showed by Rhodes as a nefarious heel and Omega's rising fan favourite stature, this should have been a blockbuster.
While the match itself was a highlight with some interesting counters and callbacks, it didn't click the way it should have.
At time Rhodes reverted back to the heel persona of last year, with lethargic and corny moves.
Even then it's a credit to the talent of both men that they managed to eke out a fight, just brimming with potential for sequels.
If anything the antics by Rhodes and Omega as well as the Young Bucks should have fans all in for this rollercoaster rivalry.
They left enough in the tank for the future while dazzling enough, for now, something their other potential best match competition did just slightly better.
Result: Rhodes pins Omega to after a Cross Roads and Young Bucks interference.
