March 6, 20169 yr comment_5731612 Cage Match CM Punk vs. Jimmy Rave This was simply everything that the end of last year's feud between Punk and Paul Heyman should've been. Punk got his vengeance on the Embassy, but that stable went down fighting, throwing every possible trick up their sleeve that they had at him. Smashing the cage door on Punk's face. Throwing powder in his eyes. Sneak attacks from both Nana and Jade Chung. But on this night, with this being the finale, in front of his hometown fans, there was no way that Punk would lose this match and this feud. This was a throwback to the territory/WCW early '90s days. Afterwards, as the Second City Saints are leaving in celebration, Punk declares that he'll soon challenge Aries for the ROH Title. Rating: ****1/4

Once again, the post-match was more enjoyable than the actual bout with Punk declaring he going after Austin Aries.
