Re: Random ROH Thoughts Thread

Cobb signed for Honor United, somewhat surprisingly. So I guess unless he has NJPW bookings he'll still be around for Global Wars and Death Before Dishonor at least.

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 whether...

Re: Summer Supercard Thread

Are we sure Marty is allowed in Canada? He didn't do Toronto during WotW 2017 even though he did Dearborn, NYC and Philadelphia. He didn't do Toronto during WotW 2018 even though he did Lowell, Royal Oak and Chicago. You can write off War of the Worlds this year because of Super Junior scheduling, a...

Re: MLW Fusion

MLW Fusion Episode 2: Danger In Swerve City Good opening package showing the history between Shane Strickland and Jimmy Havoc in MLW. Using Colonel Robert Parker is a choice. Was never a fan, but he still pretty much looks and sounds the same to be fair so I get why MLW would use him. Mike Patrick &...

Re: Random ROH Thoughts Thread

All ROH brought to G1 Supercard was taking the leap of faith and booking the building. NJPW would have filled the building themselves, and since they can just book any ROH guy they want, I don't really see any super shows happening.

Re: What If - Enzo / Cass

At the time I said they'd be a good replacement for the Bouncers. I still think that's true in a vacuum, but I'm so done with listening to bitching and moaning from AEW and NJPW fans who jump at any chance to shit on ROH that I'm glad they didn't get brought in.

Re: Random ROH Thoughts Thread

All it says is that NJPW wants their guys to do less dates. Presumably ROH are the ones running small shows that they don't want their talent doing anymore. Sounds like the end of NJPW joint shows. Don't see much reason for optimism other than the formality of the relationship being in tact keeping ...

Re: ALL PURPOSE CONTRACT STATUS/POTENTIAL DEPARTURES THREAD

I think the rumor is Rush is under contract until December 2020. I would guess that based on when they debuted that Bandido is probably signed through the end of this year whereas Cobb is probably done sooner, but *shrug*

Have wanted to try my hand at writing reviews and also have wanted to check out MLW, figured I'd give both a try at once. MLW Fusion Episode 1: When Worlds Collide Intro video doesn't really tell you much about how they intend to present the promotion, but I guess they have some Dusty Rhodes, CM Pun...

Re: Ring of Honor Events Schedule Thread

That has to be pretty close to Marty's last date, I'd run Taven versus Marty (I mean, if it was actually me, I'd run Taven versus Rush and do the title change, but I don't see that happening).

Re: Summer Supercard Thread

It's not all official yet, but Briscoes / GOD ladder match, CMLL trios, Taven / Shelley and Rush / Castle no DQ is a pretty strong top of the card. Add in a probable VE / LB 6 man and whatever Lethal is doing and that's a pretty strong card (although looking at who's left, there's unfortunately not ...

Re: Random ROH Thoughts Thread

So it's pretty weird that they advertised announcing Aldis' challenger at Manhattan Mayhem and then didn't. My gut reaction was that this meant they planned to announce Flip but now aren't sure if he will be ready to go. I don't think this is the way to go because a) Nick has already beat Flip in a ...

Re: Random ROH Thoughts Thread

I'm pretty surprised they are running Taven / Shelley in Toronto too, although since it looks like they'll be headlining with a Briscoes / GOD ladder match it makes a little more sense. For me, this match feels a little like ROH trying to replicate Lethal / Cabana from 2016. Which seems like a decen...

Re: Summer Supercard Thread

I wonder if ROH is best off going all in on the CMLL partnership. Or if they even can. I don't know much about how available CMLL talent is (it seems like they run a weekly schedule more similar to WWE than NJPW does with the tours). But it seems like Mexican wrestling imported into the US is a nich...

Re: Best In The World 2019 OFFICIAL THREAD

Cool idea. Considering how little social media noise a typical ROH PPV makes, this seems like a slightly outside the box way of getting some positive attention. Have to imagine this will probably be the most watched ROH match since G1 Supercard.

Re: Tuesday Rollout

I see they are selling Honor Re-United again. I'm desperate enough for the show to pay for it again on the chance that they fixed the problem. I'll let you know if it's with a new third disc or not. The shipment includes the shrink wrapped three disc set (presumably with the busted third disc still...

Re: ALL PURPOSE CONTRACT STATUS/POTENTIAL DEPARTURES THREAD

I like Juice, but i think he's missing a good opportunity. Look at a majority of the NJPW in ROH over the past few years, Jay White, Ropongi 3K/ Tempura Boys, Evil, Takahashi, all return to NJPW with great success. It's not like he's Okada or Niato, and not like he was a major star in the US prior ...

Re: ALL PURPOSE CONTRACT STATUS/POTENTIAL DEPARTURES THREAD

lol at Juice being upset about reports that he didn't like working ROH while making zero commitment to come back and work ROH. Feels like NJPW called Juice into the principal's office and made him apologize against his will. I like Juice, but i think he's missing a good opportunity. Look at a majori...
