Re: Official All-Star Extravaganza VII (PPV) Thread

Oh, it's easily Bennett. Taven may not get heat, but he can at least get pops for some cool, athletic spots. Bennett can't even get smarky references over in a promotion with a mostly-smarky audience.

Re: Wrestling related pet peeves of yours...

That's a 18 year difference, it's hardly an inconsistency when it's entirely believable they would've had a reason to change the rules in all that time. If it was one year and then the next, you might have a point.

Re: I think it's time for Delirious to step down as booker

What I find with Delirious' booking is you're usually gonna get a good buildup with a bad blowoff, or a bad buildup with an unexpectedly good blowoff. It doesn't feel often you get two of the same.

ROH booking meeting: "Hey guys, I know Mike and Matt are really cool guys and our friends, but they're still irrelevant and not getting over. I think we should try giving them a big push again. Maybe we should cancel the Cole turn, I still think if we wait long enough his heat might rub off on ...

Re: Bizarre Kevin Kelly Commentary

I'll say 'hit him in the ding ding' or 'over the top rope DQ.' I try to leave myself open for people to say 'Oh, there's no over the top rope DQ there, you dummy!' I open up myself for that, because you want people to fill in the blanks. Translation: I don't care if people have heard the same joke ...

It's an explanation, all right. Not one that makes me reconsider thinking they're terrible, though.

Re: Briscoes Open Challenge at ASE7

If they did bring back ANX, I'd rather see them prove they can hang before getting thrust into a push. Kenny King still hasn't proven to be more than "that guy with potential" and botched in a number of his matches right before he left. Rhett Titus needs to prove he's still a decent worker...

With the series being tied 1-1 regardless of who wins this Friday night at ALL STAR EXTRAVAGANZA Live on Pay Per View, Matt Sydal and ACH will have Match #4 in the Best of 5 Series this Saturday night in San Antonio. Grammar's important, kids. It took me a second to figure out what the Hell they we...

It's not that far back in history, like a year and a half since he started the gimmick, 2 years since SCUM finished. Still completely fresh in everyone's minds, though they'd prefer it wasn't.

Re: Briscoes Open Challenge at ASE7

I'll take them as a huge improvement over babyface Addiction, tbh. My only problem is they lose too much. They lost to Sydal and Delirious, what the fuck was that about?

If they try to make the Romantic Touch/Rhett Titus reveal seem like a big deal...fucking hell.

Re: Briscoes Open Challenge at ASE7

I'll admit, when The Kingdom wore masks and attacked the participants of the 13YA fourway, I thought that was the actual reveal until nothing came of it. But if that's me being worked, it didn't really favour ROH. It just made me hate that match even more and less enthusiastic about the product. The...

Re: 2015 ROH Match Rankings

Here is your winner and my NEW #1 Match of 2015...Lethal vs. Roddy - The Rematch from this week's TV.

There are matches that are too great to be on TV for free, and then there's THIS. A true gift from ROH. If they can work out a deal, I would LOVE for Roddy to be the next World champ.
