Re: Official Global Wars/War Of The Worlds 2016 Super Thread
Weren't people on this board complaining about War Machine not being over just last night? This really isn't even in reference to the outrage over the spoiler from tonight's show, but more genuine puzzlement as I'm seeing people on Twitter calling the match War Machine had last night "A star m...

Re: I think it's time for Delirious to step down as booker
I'm not defending the PPV ending angle, because I didn't like when/where it was executed at all, but there is an important point I haven't really seen yet. This is the Bullet Club. Run-ins, fuck finishes, and recycled NWO crap is pretty much what they're known for. They brought down plenty of great ...

Re: Official Global Wars/War Of The Worlds 2016 Super Thread
I mean it's possible but wouldn't you rather have a solid plan B rather than just relying on outside talent? Why can't you build your own guys, make them stars and then also have the New Japan deal? You absolutely can. Lethal/Cabana had absolutely no NJPW involvement, and was pretty easily the hott...

Re: Tv title booking in general
I'm very particular about how the TV title should be used. There should be one strict guideline: it should be defended on TV. Yeah, I think having it defended exclusively on TV is a good rule. Why else call it a TV title? That's something I liked about it under Cornette's era. And say what you will...

Re: Official Global Wars/War Of The Worlds 2016 Super Thread
How do the signings work? Are they generally available between when the doors open (6) and when the bell rings (7:30)? Get there early and get in line early. I went through right away without really having to wait. But there were a bunch of people still in line when the show started and signing end...

Re: Official Global Wars/War Of The Worlds 2016 Super Thread
A few thoughts I had while watching live: -Crowd was surprisingly quiet most of the show. I thought it would have been amped up the whole time. Real hot for Cabana/Lethal though. -Cheeseburger is more over than the Addiction and Cabana is more over than NJPW. -My favorite match of the night was Tana...

Re: Official Global Wars/War Of The Worlds 2016 Super Thread
Great promos from O'Reilly, Fish, and the Briscoes. About time we had a classic Briscoe Brothers promo.
That new reDRagon shirt Kyle's wearing looks sweet.
I'm jealous of the Toronto fans that get to see KUSHIDA vs O'Reilly live.

Re: COLE, STRONG, MOOSE, HATHAWAY LIKELY TO LEAVE ROH
This doesn't seem like any surprise to me. People have been speculating for years that Cole isn't going to stay in ROH forever. It was bound to happen sooner or later. Strong has been around seemingly forever, but even he had quite a while there where he wasn't under contract and honestly for that t...

Re: ROH Hall of Fame
Honestly I like ROH doing their achievement/recognition thing like they did with Jerry Lynn when he retired. A nice recognition and honor without all the red tape and complications of a HoF.

Re: Official Global Wars/War Of The Worlds 2016 Super Thread
Normally, I don't care about them announcing title matches in advance of other title matches, because they have a proven track record of having title change hands regardless of those announcements anyways. Like the case of Fish vs Ishii I still think Fish wins, carries the TV title into the tag matc...

Re: Official Conquest Tour 2016 Thread
I hope this Dijak thing results in an unsuccessful title defense on a house show and then is dropped. I think it's great to do this type of thing to build up title matches and defenses more. That being said it can't go further than that in this case. Dijak is nowhere near ready even for the TV title...

Re: Jay Lethal Title Reign
Fish should win. You get more buzz around a belt by having regular quality defenses (which I think Fish would have) and good promo skills to build up the belt (something Fish excels at) than by having it sit on the waist of Ishii over in Japan, not getting defended or showcased. Fish created buzz ar...

Re: Random ROH Thoughts Thread
The thing with the Women of Honor is this: Yes, there is a demand for it, but that demand, as Koff mentioned, is online, and it translates much better there. Nobody is buying DVD's or VOD's for the women's matches. Like he said, two of those matches are a couple of the highest viewed videos on thei...

Re: If Kyle was champ?
It would suck because he's nothing more than a midcarder even in ROH. I've seen O'Reilly main event a number of shows outside ROH and I've never been disappointed. And when he doesn't main event, he's usually in one of the best if not the best match of the night. I think the perception people seem ...

Re: Official Global Wars/War Of The Worlds 2016 Super Thread
It probably means that Naito won against O'Reilly after cheating or after Lethal's interference. They couldn't announce anything yesterday anyway. That's reading into things way too much. ROH doesn't seem to care about announcing future matches that seem to give away an upcoming result, even title ...

Re: ROH Hall of Fame
No need for a hall of fame. Hall of fames are over rated and it will just give people another reason to complain.
In the event of one, I think Danielson/Daniels/Low Ki would be the best option, even if Daniels is still wrestling. Other best option would be posthumous induction of Eddie Guerrero.

Re: If Kyle was champ?
I see quality defenses, but whether his reign is memorable or not ultimately relies on the booking. Even if you're having 4-5 star matches every night, if they're just random matches against random challengers it won't have the same legacy as having an intriguing feud. If he eventually wins hopefull...
