Re: ALL PURPOSE CONTRACT STATUS/POTENTIAL DEPARTURES THREAD
Even as someone who's been enjoying the actual content of the Taven Title Run, this contract situation is deeply funny and embarrassing. Like, what if he actually fucking leaves? ROH's PPV main event "star" status this year have relied on Lethal, Taven, Cobb, and Scurll--three of which hav...

Re: Jim Cornette
Cornette and Orton are both so, so washed. Our forum members don't have the time for this.

Re: Death Before Dishonor 2019 Thread (9/27 Las Vegas)
WHITE GOD KENTA is one of my AKAs, you can't just go posting it in public like this. Even with Cobb picking up big wins this past weekend, I still see Taven/Rush as practically set in stone. Cobb will probably use his title opportunity on the cusp his last appearance or some time next year if he ren...

Re: Honor For All 8/25/19 Nashville
I think ROH 2019 is an overall improvement for compared to the amount of Bullet Club genuflection and main event staidness in recent years, but their bad booking reputation still seems pretty well-earned. As much as they've built up stars like Rush, Taven, and Cobb, it feels like they've let Lethal,...

Re: Random ROH Thoughts Thread
On the speculation of Anthony Henry coming in, ROH's notorious treadmill of a midcard doesn't need to be populated even further. And I like Henry, but he might not have a great ceiling considering his promo work.

Re: Random ROH Thoughts Thread
It looks like the CMLL Anniversario show will be on the same date as Death Before Dishonor, where one half of last year's Anniversario main event will main event an ROH PPV a year later. The weird wrestling timeline we live in strikes again.

Re: Honor For All 8/25/19 Nashville
Okay, I'm going to use my moderator card to gatekeep against anyone who doesn't feel nerdily warm about a Rock N Roll/Briscoes match for the ROH titles. Also, Ricky and Robert, sneaky good year. I have obvious reasons to say this (promote the upcoming match, etc.) but I think this is Ricky and Robe...

Re: What are your faith levels in a Rush title reign?
I'm not going to speculate about attendance, but I've been disappointed in his match quality so far tbh. Obviously Rush & Dragon Lee versus the Briscoes was great. And he's had a lot of short matches due to booking that limited how many chances he's had to "steal the show". But whethe...

Re: NJPW Thread
Zack Sabre Jr just laid out my favorite KENTA match this G1 (the latter of whom has looked his best in years). ROH should bring Zed Es Jay back. Have him cut promos on Sinclair Broadcasting or how nonsense the Lifeblood gimmick is, I dunno. Let Zack and Lethal roll around. I want to see the Jacobin,...

What are your faith levels in a Rush title reign?
It looks like the time is coming for the big Rush title challenge. And his chance of winning is probably good. Is this going to provide some noticeable change in ROH's business? The closest ROH has come to booking a non-English star like this is Morishima or KENTA, and that was a long time ago, with...

Re: Summer Supercard Thread
I don't know what the (reliable) reported attendance last night was, but the early photos of the event seemed discouraging. Obviously ticket sales have been hurting since AEW has started putting on shows, though it's worth considering that "Summer Supercard" is a new brand and that a lot o...

Re: ALL PURPOSE CONTRACT STATUS/POTENTIAL DEPARTURES THREAD
Hendry is the type of pretty solid all-rounder wrestler that tend to work well on TV promotions. I've probably only seen a handful of his singles matches or promos, and I doubt most of the audiences will know him beyond his name. ROH has a glut of wrestlers at the midcard that they're squeezing to m...

Re: NJPW Thread
Shingo vs Ishii is some wild, wild shit. Maybe even wilder than it would seem on paper. If there's anyone who would like a quick and dirty G1 top ten for whatever reason, here's mine so far: 1. Shingo vs Ishii (Night 16) 2. Ibushi vs Tanahashi (Night 13) 3. Ishii vs Moxley (Night 6) 4. Ishii vs Nait...

As a journalist, I hate when people only write articles "explaning" how bad a thing is when everybody know how bad the situation is and everybody knows why. If he was really interested, he should have written a piece 1-2 years ago talking about what could be next for ROH. Writing abut wha...

Re: Future of Honor Thread
To the best of my recollection, this is ROH's first attempt at a Top Prospect retrospective; cool stuff. Also, take this as my first official respect for Quinn Mckay post.
