As part of their time in Ring of Honor, Bryan faced a young Tyler Black on May 9th, 2008. Yes, these two men squared off against one another when Rollins was part of the Shield, but before that, they faced one another in front a crowd of nearly 1000 people.

Their match told the story of the heel Rollins facing the more seasoned and experienced Bryan. Rollins certainly showed how he could use his athleticism to deliver effective moves, while also showing just how brash and arrogant of a character he could be.

Early in the match, Rollins was able to dictate the flow, even when Bryan attempted to get the better of him. However, after about five minutes, Bryan was able to wear down his opponent and used his technical prowess to get the better of the man who is now, the reigning Intercontinental champion.

Bryan's return could mean these two could once again face each other, adding even more depth to their earlier matches.
