Card looks okay. I'm pretty sure the TV taping aren't up to date with the current standings in the title tournament, but the final 4 have been plastered around the ROH website and social media for weeks now so I don't even know if this should even be considered a spoiler.

Predicting Cole to beat Elgin in the final. He's looked the Favourite in my eyes since the tournament started considering how much attention they've put on his heelish behavior. I can't imagine it's not all leading to him winning the title.

Jesus, I like this card. Glad Ciampa is up in a big match like that but he shouldn't beat Cole. Elgin/Steen are gonna tear each other apart. Fun tag team title match, Strong/Marvin should deliver and that 8-man tag looks smartly booked. I'm gonna be checkin' this out for sure.

Also, I totally wanna see Outlaw Inc.

I think Cole going over Elgin in the finals is a safe bet but I'm still not 100% sure who's going to come out of that Semi with Steen and Elgin. Lord knows Elgin deserves it, but Steen has the crowd like I've never seen in ROH. If ever they were going to go the route of "Two Time Champ" again, It's gotta be Steen.

But, knowing how rare that is, I agree with you. I see Cole going over Elgin in the finals, with some sort of heelish screwy finish to setup a feud between the two going forward.
