Re: Fixing up roh in 10 steps
Definately the production, DVDs have looked better recently but its the little things that occurred so often on the iPPV which is very embarrassing especially when new viewers/potential fans purchase. They really need to sort out the booking of the World title, which is so predictable. We all know ...

Re: ROH blocking talents signing for WWE?
You're not going to get a much more reliable source then the Observer or the Torch. Of course that doesn't always mean that they never make a mistake. Its funny though. Since we we're just talking about this subject in the Gabe thread. And I mentioned how Kroft did an interview where he compared ROH...

Re: Is promoting three PPVs a mistake
Oh don't get me wrong. I'm excited about the three shows and think they have done a pretty good job building the three shows. I'm just worried about the casual fans. Especially since they are still so early in their run with Sinclair. I'll be getting all three shows myself though.

Is promoting three PPVs a mistake
Do you think that ROH too on more then they could chew by promoting "Young Wolves Rising" and "Showdown In The Sun" at the same time ( Which ammounts to three PPVs). I think they have done a good job under the circumstances. But it does seem like they are trying to spread themsel...

Sinclair Looking to Expand?
I was reading an excerpt from the Observer today....It seems Sinclair is doing very well as a company from where they we're a few years back. They we're losing a lot of money and in bankrupty. But now they are financially stable and rebounding nicely in stock price. The CEO wants to expand the compa...

Re: So um... Are the WM weekend shows gonna be empty?
They haven't really announced a lot of the card for the "Showdown In the Sun" yet. They should start doing that more actively in the coming weeks. They still have more then a month to build. I do wonder if they bit a little more then they can chew by trying to promote "Young Wolves Ri...

ROH Production Upgrades
Sean Radican of PWtorch.com is reporting some production upgrades that we're used at the last tapings. They have a new production truck and new cameras. The show isn't in HD but the new camera's have better picture quality. I'm not sure when the new tapings air on TV, but I for one am interested to ...

Re: Do you just live with it now?
I really liked the Edwards vs O'rielly match. I thought it was a great TV match. The last few shows have been some of their best since the Sinclair run started. The shows feel tightly produced, with good wrestling, and more importantly build to the PPVs. I don't think they should give away too much ...

Anyone having trouble watching ROH TV Show on the website?
I'm a ROH Ringside member. I went to watch the TV show and got a page with a bunch of thumbnails for each episode. But none of the links work or lead to any video of the episodes. Anyone else notice this?

Re: Huge news on ROH office.
It sounds like he had to be the bad guy to help ROH stay in business. Since Carey was usually the good guy. So its no shock that he is so polarizing. This move makes sense since it seemed like Sinclair was going to phase out some of the old management. They got Gary Juster running the live events no...

Re: 10th Anniversary on GFL
I think the anniversy show won't be hyped on TV. I think it will be more of a gift to long time ROH fans. And certainly for the fans in live attendance or who buy the DVD. I think Showdown for the Sun will be the shows that they focus on. I love how you get two PPVs for only five dollars more then t...

Re: ROH in new TV markets
So far, they have only cleared stations that Sinclair actually owns. It would be great if they could get clearance outsite the Sinclair Umbrella. Thats the real test.

Re: ROH Doing Disappointing Business Recently...
Internet PPV hasn't reached its potential yet. We are still not in an era where a lot of people are willing to pay for a PPV to watch on their CPU. And not everyone has a Roku either. Its still a new concept and at the moment its hard to really do huge numbers. ROH's TV is limited so its going to be...

Re: Are We Causing A Problem For ROH?
Mitchill isnt literally saying its the fans fault. His real point is that ROH needs to find away to attract new fans. They can;t just book for the "this is awesome crowd". Mitchill respects the workrate of the ROH wrestlers and thinks the booking makes sense. He just thinks there is a lot ...

Re: ROH In 2012
One of the reasons DVDs for Dragon Gate/Evolve have been slow have been do to Sal having some health issues. Which have now cleared up. So he is trying to get caught up on the back log now. ROH's new main revenue stream is house shows and IPPV. So DVDs have taking a back seat. I do think they should...

Re: Does Anyone Else Find This Appalling in Ring of Honor?
I think the chairshots shouldn't have been done and shouldn't be done in the future. With what we know about concussions there is no place for that. Especially in so much excess. The chair shots added no buys to the show. To be fair, some of the stuff in the Eddie vs Davey match was dangerous too. T...

Re: ROH In 2012
Number 1 make sure they get rid of chair shots to the head or anything else that puts the health of their wrestlers in jepordy. Continue to improve production values on IPPV and TV. The level of production we got from Final Battle needs to be better next time. Sinclair also needs to try and sell the...

The build to "Showdown In The Sun" has already begun. Which takes place wrestlemania weekend and is actually a two night show. ROH already had promo commercials for on the TV Show this week ( which was actually a best of show). Its good to see them already getting ready for the next big sh...

Re: Final Battle 2011
The match was great. But there was a big negative. Just too much chair shots to the head and other violent stuff that just isn't good for the long term health of the wrestlers. I thought Indy fans loved that? Thats one instance where I say screw the fans! Why ruin these guys lives just to please a ...
