Re: This weekend, we should ALL be proud indy fans

When I started watching ROH back in '05 I was burned out on professional wrestling and looking for something different. One of the very first people I took a liking to was this pale, angry lookin' fella with an unkempt beard and a chip on his shoulder that would wrestle each match like his very life...

Re: Official Supercard of Honor VIII (New Orleans) Thread

I like Matt Hardy. It's mostly cause I get enjoyment from booing the crap out of him and his reactions to said jeering are entertaining. On topic: I don't get how every year the last few years people say "Great looking card, but that's not a SUPERcard". Is it written in stone somewhere tha...

Re: Raising The Bar Night 1 Viewing Party 1 PM EST~!!!

So sorry I missed this! My internet has been hit or miss all day since we had a tiny bit of wind last night... stupid Comcast!! Awesome to see the return of the chatbox! I'll watch Night 1 this week so I can hopefully participate next weekend

Re: OFFICIAL RTB Night 1 Viewing Party 1 PM EST TOMORROW (3/

Start time is set! As stated in the OP, it would be great if those of you participating can get on the board 10-15 minutes before start time to ensure a good crowd. I'll try to be around for this for sure! Maybe Harry could throw out a tweet or FB message just so anyone who's interested but not on ...

Re: ROH's Biggest Mistake

The Gabe situation is tough. I can see both sides, but ultimately, even though I think Gabe is almost as out of touch as Cornette is now, he understands a lot of fundamental booking philosophies that ROH has struggled with since he left, that are incredibly important for a promotion in the position...

Re: Raising The Bar Night 1 Viewing Party- SUGGEST A START T

Would Sunday afternoons maybe be a better compromise for everyone? I know weekday afternoons won't be too good for anyone with school or work. Sundays are usually the more relaxed days of the weekend, and no school and not as likely to have work. Just a thought!

Re: Raising The Bar Night 1 Viewing Party- SUGGEST A START T

8pm is a fine start time for me, but I'm in the States so I can't speak for anyone else. The interest seems to be here for a fun event, but maybe tonight is too short notice for some people?

Re: ROH's Biggest Mistake

I think it says a lot about ROH as a company that there's not one or two glaring missteps that we can all point to and agree were terrible mistakes (personal, back stage scandals aside). WWE has the Invasion, WCW had politics, ECW had a poor business model, etc. I can't think of what their single, b...

I'm also on board for this as it was always a hoot to watch the shows live and see everyone's thoughts and comments. Official RTB: Night 1 slumber party? [cornette]

Re: The WWE Thread

They should really just take Lawler off TV altogether. And JBL (who always looks like he wants to murder someone, even when he's smiling). And Cole, while we're at it. Replace them with Regal and Moppy and you'd have a more charismatic announce team. Anyway, I've watched WWE since I can remember, st...

Re: The NXT Thread

The Cesaro/Zayn encounter is a perfect example of how to make someone look like a million bucks in defeat, and the right guy definitely won. Just a perfectly booked, classic encounter between two rivals with bad blood. Amazing match! Too bad it was followed immediately by Mojo Rawley and CJ Parker, ...

Re: The WWE Network Thread

Had I just watched Flair/Steamboat from Wrestlewar '89 I would have missed the 2 minute classic TV Title bout between Sting and Sheiky Baby. Also, the post match beatdown after Flair vs. Steamboat is definitely worth watching. Terry Funk is incredible. And Dick Murdoch vs. Bob Orton Jr. is supremel...

Re: The WWE Network Thread

I'm onto Wrestlewar '90: Wild Thing! Which features a ridiculously lame intro, complete with a WCW inspired rap! Only half way through, as I watch these late at night and usually pass out, but the highlights so far are Midnight Express vs. Rock n Roll Express (did these guys revolutionize tag team w...

Re: The WWE Network Thread

The Music City Wrestlewar ('89) is indeed kinda a dud except for Flair vs. Steamboat, which while a tad long, is still an absolutely classic encounter. This show also promises us JYD vs. Muta (which I would have loved to have seen) and a hair vs. hair match, neither of which take place. Having been...

Re: The WWE Network Thread

People think Wrestlewar is the best. Chi-Town had a screwy finish. Wrestlewar was clean as a whistle. Nah, Chi-town was better (Actually the 2/3 fall Clash of Champions VI match they had in between the PPVs was the best) Not a single move felt like it was wasted in the entire thing, and the entire ...

Re: The WWE Network Thread

Anyone know if NXT is still going to be put up on Hulu (the free version) a week after it airs like it is right now? Or is NXT now a Network exclusive? I think this last episode before NXT ArRIVAL is the very last to be uploaded to Hulu, but don't quote me on that. I'm more excited for that show th...

Re: What will the HonorCon announcement be?

I'm so excited for these super shows I just ordered two front row reserved lower balcony tickets for the NYC show. Just one question: Does anyone have any clue which balcony this is? I'm guessing it's a good view of the action but I've never been. That's the balcony facing the hardcam. The other on...
