Re: Poughkeepsie Journal interviews Joe Koff

Its a very company response from a very company guy, but I don't know what people expect him to say, "ROH really is awful, no one should watch it, hell half the wrestlers are leaving soon anyway so it just doesn't matter". ROH really seems to be trying to create a very commercial identity ...

Re: Official Global Wars/War Of The Worlds 2016 Super Thread

That is one way to look at it, yes, but how about this: Cole beat KUSHIDA in February and Kyle just beat Cole at SCOH, so it makes perfect sense that he could at least go to a fifteen or even twenty minute draw with Naito. Or, even more simply, if have a guy you need protected, the DON'T BOOK HIM A...

Re: Official Global Wars/War Of The Worlds 2016 Super Thread

I think that booking was made long before his return to ROH in Dallas. Oh, and just to be clear, Cabana is working a Nova Pro/GFW joint show, because you see, GFW has to partner up with these local indie promotions, because they can't run shows on their own. Well that's a bonus, and it did make the...

Re: Official Global Wars/War Of The Worlds 2016 Super Thread

To everyone defending Kyle's loss to Naito (and even worse, those who are trying to say that it should actually contribute towards him earning an ROH World Title shot)... why not just book a draw instead? That would be LITERALLY "taking the IWGP Heavyweight Champion to the limit" and woul...

Re: Official Global Wars/War Of The Worlds 2016 Super Thread

I think the changes made the card much better, it's a shame it took an injury for that to happen. Cabana is working GFW that weekend for those asking I hope this booking was made way before the knowledge of this whole angle was planned else somebody really made a blunder or Colt needs to sort his p...

Re: Official Global Wars/War Of The Worlds 2016 Super Thread

Great card overall especially if they deliver and I do always like when cards charge to coincide with big angles and in some way I think the injuries have actually helped the card bar obviously Trent and Romero vs Motor City as I think they really could have been great, everything overall makes sens...

Re: Fix Best in the World '16

The thing is with the end of the last PPV it's meant to be a shock move and one trying to shake up the future of ROH, now I see it by booking the main event as it they are continuing on with how ROH was original meant to be before all this happened as Nigel wants to show that they aren't bigger than...

Re: ROH's future in Manhattan

I think running either Manhattan or the Hammerstein once a year shouldn't be a problem, I think once would be great, especially for the Ballroom and using it for a PPV, it would just add that extra special for me anyway.

Re: Official War Of The World '16: Night 2 (TV Tapings) Thre

I don't know if they will go with screwing over an entire match like the recent PPV, I can see someone robbing Jay of the pin for sure, maybe go with Page just distracting Jay or knocking out him for Lethal to take the pin which if it leads to a program between Jay and Adam then that's great as I th...

Re: Should ROH remove BITW '16 from North Carolina?

They are certainly building a card specifically to that area it seems, which I have no problem but considering it's a PPV I probably would have had a different shape to the card, but they are obviously trying to make a large crowd for the area which Is somewhat good business in the end if it works.

I see your point. You're right, it has to end with a bang. However, I think the latter part of your sentence will be our final thoughts on this feud. Yeah I can see that happening, it's the unfortunate thing about both Corino and BJ they both have the skills to make you buy into the build, to the m...

Ciampa certainly had a rough ride and It's a shame as I think Dean Ambrose's shows a crazy personality can be a strong face and Ciampa can also deliver in the ring. With Cedric he's certainly a talented guy but he is someone who would be a great undercard guy as he would have good matches and not mu...

Re: Official Global Wars/War Of The Worlds 2016 Super Thread

Jay Lethal is now de facto a babyface, so Adam Cole is the only person who can become the next champion. (And it’s nigh impossible for me to believe that there’s any time left for Lethal as champion.) Whom the succeeding contenders may be is a big question mark. I’m not very excited to find out. Co...
