Re: RIP Viro the Virus

No-one seems to know the full details. By all accounts, he just disappeared off to Arizona and most of his friends and associates had lost track of him.

Reminds me of the Larry Sweeney situation, in that sense.

RIP Viro the Virus

I wrote this but, apparently, it isn't going to be posted on the front page of the site. So, I might as well throw it up here. “Wonder aloud 'How'd they ever make it?' And vow 'I'll never fake it, just to make my record famous'. Subsequently, I'll never be famous. So be it, I'm satisfied to just hav...

Re: How should Davey Richards vs Kevin Steen end?

Steen runs ropes.
Cornette hits Steen in back with racket.
Davey hits Package Piledriver.
1-2-3.

Re: I know ROH doesn't have the highest budget...

I know a guy who has done occasional DVD covers for ROH and has regularly done graphics for other companies.

With all due respect to Harry, he's actually a more skilled and experienced designer and ROH won't let him contribute. Similar to the Alex O'Keeffe scenario.

Re: ROH Fires GFL

Just noticed these... Why would they do all iPPVs on GFL and just miss one off? They're clearly leaving GFL and partnering with someone different, or streaming themselves. Let's say, for the sake of argument, that they're only three shows into a six show agreement with GFL. This is all very abrupt, ...

Re: Matt Taven vs. Mike Mondo match = must see ROH TV

Mondo has become one of my favourite wrestlers.

He's been producing great stuff for ROH and OVW for a while now, and has been getting no credit because of the Spirit Squad stigma.

Re: ROH Fires GFL

Maybe the reason because ROH are blaming GFL is because is GFL fault and not ROH? Yeah, plenty of other companies have done perfectly fine on GFL. The fact of the matter is, ROH's production has never been competitive. The company has a history of poor performances when it comes to producing/distri...

Re: ROH Fires GFL

I've yet to see a credible report that ROH has parted ways with GFL.

Doing one non-GFL PPV doesn't mean that they won't be continuing to fulfil obligations to GFL for the time being.

Anyone that suggests WWNLive as an option doesn't know what WWNLive is.

Re: I think Border Wars is getting Steen vs Davey...

Pretty sure it'll be Davey beating Steen at BITW and losing to Steen at FB.

Don't think I could hold back the rage if they gave away Davey-Steen on a house show.

Re: Showdown in the Sun Night 2 Live Discussion

Got to say I was hugely impressed with this whole weekend. Credit has to go to the crowd for creating a real party atmosphere. Intrigued by Jacobs' "Zombie Princess" gimmick. Really impressed with what Elgin did with his main event opportunity. WGTT looked really motivated by the occasion....

Re: Women of Honor - Yes or No?

I don't think the Duke understands how small of a niche independent wrestling is, and how much smaller that niche is independent women's wrestling. It's not about what's popular now. It's about what has the potential for future growth. Women's wrestling is growing in popularity and the talent pool ...

Re: Women of Honor - Yes or No?

I think the fact that my WOH articles were amongst the most talked-about ever on this site (if not the most talked-about) told it's own story. There's a definite market out there, that isn't being catered to. There are also quite a few women, with ROH history, (like Daffney and Del Rey), who'd love ...

Re: Can we bring Gabe back now?

There's a number of different tag teams at the top of the card btw. ROH was the third biggest wrestling company in America and Gabe started two companies off the ground. I don't think the Sinclair money was the reason why DGUSA and Evolve aren't as big. OK then, compare the 2.5-year-old DG:USA to wh...
