Re: Reflecting on Cornette's impact on ROH
I loved the "Cornette Era." It was a fun product to follow along with both in the ring and behind the scenes. Not everything hit, and some thing's didn't fit in Ring of Honor, but I really enjoyed the feuds. I felt that most of them were built really well and all had a good lead up to the ...

Re: Supercard of Honor IX in the Silicon Valley
I listened to Dave Meltzer & Bryan Alvarez's recap of Supercard of Honor IX . Seemed like they enjoyed the show. They said the crowd was pretty much into the whole show, for the most part. Meltzer said that (in his opinion), only one match was under ***, but nothing went over ****. They also no...

Re: Supercard of Honor IX in the Silicon Valley
What was your favourite match of the night? Joe vs Jay. Joe messed his knee up really early on, and had to take about 20 seconds before they really got into things to move his knee around. There was a spot where Jay tried to throw Joe over the top rope, but Joe didn't clear and fell back into the r...

Re: Supercard of Honor IX in the Silicon Valley
I was there in the front row. That Joe/Jay pic Monster Mafia posted is mine. Had really good seats. The crowd was great, except for one guy, who wanted to do impressions all night and shit on every guy on the card. Things started getting ugly during the main event as people in my section had had eno...

Re: What do you think of the product at the moment?
I think this is the least interested and most disconnected I've been since I started following heavily in 09. I was not a detractor of the "Cornette Era" though. Regardless of who was in charge, it was interesting. Now, it's just kind of... there.

Re: ROH Returns to Texas!
I love San Antonio. Went there on my honeymoon. I live in Northern California, but I really wanted to go to this because it's my favorite wrestling in my favorite city. So, I went through all the motions to see how much it would cost. I can get roundtrip airfare for about $500, but after tickets, ho...

Re: Why are people picking El Generico to win the title?
The only reason I'd pick Generico to win the title is if Lethal were to "cash in" his Survival of the Fittest and beat Generico for it right after the match. That way they'd still protect the Steen/Lethal match up. Obviously, there are several things that could go wrong with this situation...

Re: November 3rd 2012 TV Tapings
I think we're getting Lynn vs Cole for the TV title. Lynn returning to the Hammerstein, challenging for the TV Title like he used to do with RVD sounds great. As for Hardy, look for Bennett & Maria vs Hardy & Reby Sky.

Re: mike mondo
I've had the pleasure of interviewing Mike for our show and he's a grade A, stand up guy. He works hard to make sure he's not having the same match twice and he throws in a lot of details with his matches to make sure they're different. His selling ability is fantastic, and although he's not my favo...

Re: The Item in the Box Was BAD! - Differing View
I was viewing the show from the standpoint that I didn't (and still don't) believe much has changed creatively. I believe Delirious was heavily involved in creative, especially for the live shows, and Cornette was in charge of TV. I bring that up because I want to make it clear that what I felt that...

Re: Official Glory by Honor XI Thread
What a terrific show. The feeling and emotion was running high. Several top-notch matches and a lot of intriguing story-arcs. My stream worked perfectly fine, streaming at the top quality the whole night. Audio was MUCH improved, too. I did have someone from my group complain that his stream didn't ...

Re: The Next ROH World Champ?
I think the title change is so far off that it's really difficult to tell, but I'm going with Cole to "save" Ring of Honor from Scum. Elgin would be another choice.

Re: An Interesting Note About ROH House Shows
I don't see a problem with what they're doing now. Visiting TV markets and getting good word of mouth while interacting with sponsors is the most important thing for them right now, and they seem to be doing that just fine.

Re: Davey Richards "American Bandit"
If the promoter was really worried and if he values safety over time-honored traditions, why wasn't the match stopped? Why wasn't the match stopped when Kozina laid down and told the kid to wrestle him? Why wasn't the match stopped with the ropes broke? Why wasn't the match stopped after the first o...

Re: Davey Richards "American Bandit"
But we're talking about a part of wrestling that isn't squeaky clean. In fact, I'd bet that that 16 year old kid as worked a match for that promoter and didn't get paid to work. This situation isn't so black and white. This is something that happens all the time, but we're seeing all these stories n...

Re: Rhett Titus Enters The Tag Tourney!
Hoping his partner is either Mondo or Elgin. Mondo really needs to keep his steam rolling after BitW and the World Title match, and a tag run with Rhett could help immensely. As for Elgin, it could really help his face turn and drive an even bigger wrench in between him and HoT while keeping things ...

So wait, promoters have stiffed wrestlers since forever, but when a wrestler does it to a promoter it's the worst thing ever? :lol: Ok, ok, that was a piece of shit thing to do. Sounds like these two entities will never do business again, and that's the way it should be. Promoter hopefully has learn...

Re: ROH Mid-Term Report
Without really sitting down and analyzing it, I'd say I'm hovering around the B- range. ROH has had some really good moments this year, including the rise of Elgin and his slow face turn, making the title switch to Steen (which is something I wouldn't have done) to please the fans, Adam Cole getting...
