This is a good DVD compilation for several reasons. Firstly.....it has the Joe vs. Kobashi match on it, one of the greatest matches in ROH History. That alone is a reason enough to get this since the actual show is Out-of-Print and hard to find. Secondly, this actually has a lot of matches from shows that are Out-of-Print, so it's definitely a good buy for that reason as well. The match quality varies from being good to absolutely great, depending on the match, but overall it's a good compilation of one of Ring of Honor's biggest stars.
