Re: Official Honor Rising 2016 Thread

On the flip side, Delirious vs. Gedo was dreadful. Other than to acknowledge the smart marks, this match was shit. If they got rid of this match, and allotted more time to the Briscoes/Bullet Club match (which was already good), that could've possibly made that match over the top. Gedo's reaction t...

Re: The NJPW Thread

Observer: Expect some major moves regarding New Japan World over the next year. At least some big things are in the talking stage. Apparently, no matter how it is positioned publicly, New Japan was very surprised at how little traction the service got within its home country. There wasn’t much thou...

Re: DGUSA/EVOLVE Thread

I guess this means that WWN Live has been purchased by WWE . I think they can all stop pretending that HHH is helping Evolve just beacause he loves indy wrestling. Thank God for PWG and ROH . THe big questions that remains is did Gabe sell out or did he just buy in ? I honestly don't think there is...

Re: Supercard of Honor X - April 1-2, 2016 - Dallas, TX

Two tickets left to be claimed for the Friday night show. $50 each So you sign up to this site just to sell tickets for a profit that you probably shouldn't have bought in the first place considering you should've known there'd be a NXT show? Couldn't even sell for face so it's a wash? You sound li...

Re: Worst show in history

Eye of the Storm 2 from 2009 was pretty bad. Seemed like everyone in the crowd and every wrestler just wanted the show to end ASAP.

If ROH really wanted anyone from Evolve they could get them. Evolve runs about 12 shows a year in front of 100-200 people ;it's a payday, but I don't think anyone's making a significant percentage of their income from Evolve dates.

Re: The relationship with NJPW is strengthening...

OK. Also, the fact that these titles are just being given to a team that wins a random match with no build, no qualification procedures, that was announced about two weeks before the event, and features one team consisting of three guys that aren't really an established trio (they're just from the ...

Jay's always been the more consistent singles performer, though. I'm struggling to think of any main event level Mark Briscoe matches that weren't opposite Samoa Joe or Jay Briscoe.

Re: DGUSA/EVOLVE Thread

I love the promotion but hate the venues. As for the question of whether or not we can start calling it a "top indy" again... I'm not sure. The action and booking are great, but I'd be hesitant to use the term "top indy" when you only run two venues and 200 people is considered ...

Re: DGUSA/EVOLVE Thread

With this sale, I decided to give Evolve another shot. I grabbed the VOD of the last two shows, 51 & 52. Only have the main event left in 51 to watch, and then all of 52. I am enjoying the in-ring action of Evolve, which is the entire point of the promotion. All killer no filler. BUT, is anybod...

Re: reDRagon contract extension update

Losing Kyle would be a big blow. Side note: who would have guessed 3 or 4 years ago that we'd be speculating on Bobby Fish joining WWE? Not that he's not talented, but always seemed like an indie lifer to me.

Re: The NJPW Thread

Cody Hall has a ton of potential and has already shown a lot of improvement in the past six months. White and Finlay are fairly bland but very good workers. Juice Robinson is the former CJ Parker and seems to be showing more fire than he did in NXT. Owens has never impressed me, kinda works a mid 20...

Re: The NJPW Thread

I've been watching some of Nagata's work from the early-mid 2000's, and I have a new appreciation for him. He wasn't flashy, but he came across as a real workhorse. In my opinion, Nagata is pretty underrated. I think his peak came at the wrong time. Totally agree. I put him and Kojima in the same b...

Falls count anywhere matches where refs still enforce rope breaks. And no DQ tag matches where guys still stand on the apron and wait for tags.

Re: Wrestling related pet peeves of yours...

Another move that's been grandfathered in but makes no sense is the drop down from an Irish whip. Why would I jump over my opponent and not just drop an elbow or something? Same for leapfrog.
