Jonathan Gresham vs. Alex Shelley

ROH TV January 10

Both men traded holds for the first few minutes of the match with neither getting the clear advantage. Gresham eventually put Shelley in the figure four, which Shelley broke by bending the Gresham’s fingers. Gresham continued to work Shelley’s leg by chopping it in the corner followed by a dragonscrew leg whip. At the 10 minute mark, Shelley and Gresham traded cradles and rolls for a bunch of near falls with one that actually secured the pinfall victory for Gresham.
