Re: Best in the world 2021

Way too much stuff for a PPV. I defend Delirious on occasion but this is a bad habit of his that he just keeps repeating. Can't imagine in 2021 there is much bonus pay for wrestling on a ROH PPV but I can't figure out why he packs these shows so much otherwise.

Re: ALL PURPOSE NEW TALENT/SPECIAL ATTRACTION THREAD

I haven't seen Neese in years but based on his EVOLVE stuff he seems like a good option for a midcard heel, although admittedly pretty much everyone here has always been higher on Silas than I am so I am not sure who's spot he would take otherwise.

Re: Official 19th Anniversary Thread

Bunch of people commenting live seemed to think EC3 match was too long and exposed EC3 as not up to ROH standards. Tbf the PWT review was the first negative review i saw for Rush / Lethal, and it seemed like the writer just has no interest in Rush.

Re: Official 19th Anniversary Thread

i found only one review for the show in wrestling media. i was hoping 411 would have a review up by now. But they dont. i know it doesnt matter that much but there are still fans on the fence and i know many wait for the reviews to see what matches to check out. Don't know if you saw the same one a...

Re: Random ROH Thoughts Thread

The content is there if you want it, doesn’t mean you have to watch it. Agreed. It looks kind of silly on a schedule but hell, if ROH put their YouTube stuff on a schedule when they were doing Future of Honor and Women of Honor it wouldn't have looked that different during a PPV week. This is mostl...

Re: Who/What has done the most damage to ROH?

I didn't vote for SBG but with more time to think about it, I think I should have. There's no reason ROH couldn't have been what AEW became. The exact ratio of blame between Koff not having ambition for the product and SBG not spending are murky and interlocked, obviously. But most accounts seem to ...

Re: Random ROH Thoughts Thread

We'll always have that super dope SCOH card before COVID ruined everything and Marty probably sealed the relationship's fate. People who are saying ROH doesn't need New Japan are giving off major TNA Mecca vibes whenever anyone leaves. Spoiler, you can make your storylines coherent, build your talen...

Re: ALL PURPOSE CONTRACT STATUS/POTENTIAL DEPARTURES THREAD

Unless NXT or AEW want him to do color, I can't see what else would be out there for him with the shape his body is in tbh. As a former ROH champion, ROH should have the most interest in keeping him amongst the second tier.

Re: Random ROH Thoughts Thread

In honor of Scrap Iron being scheduled to face Roman Reigns at the Rumble for now (kayfabe, brother), what is everyone's second favorite singles match of his in ROH (assuming everyone has Albright at DBD as #1). Candidates as best as I can remember: - Double title match versus Nigel - Rematch with A...

Re: ROH Dream Matches - We never got

Danielson vs. Lethal took place for the ROH Title in FIP and is included on the Domination DVD release. London vs. Elgin took place at ASE in 2013. Wasn't Danielson / Lethal for the FIP title? Either way, FIP Danielson was obviously fun for Dragon but a chore to watch IMO. Feel dumb about forgettin...

Re: ROH Dream Matches - We never got

Austin Aries vs Kevin Steen, El Generico or Eddie Edwards never happened, right? EDIT: Edwards actually wrestled Aries in 2006 at International Challenge, although Eddie was only a regional enhancement guy at that point. But it happened. And Aries lost to Generico at Eye of the Storm in 2008. Still ...

Re: ROH Dream Matches - We never got

Not possible but I was always bummed that Joe's short return coincided with Adam Cole being injured. Speaking of Joe, a Joe / KENTA singles ranks high for me. I'll agree with Danielson / Lethal, considering all the random title defenses Dragon did and that Lethal was still popping in from time to ti...

Re: Random ROH Thoughts Thread

RIP Brodie Lee Obviously his time in ROH was pretty limited (you'd be forgiven for forgetting his short run as Jimmy Jacobs' Necro replacement in AotF) , but I've enjoyed him pretty much where ever he was working, and by most accounts he was a great guy behind the scenes. Leaves a wife and two kids ...

Re: Marty Scurll & ROH in 2021 - return or not?

I mean, I have conflicting feelings about how ROH should proceed here, but it cannot be disputed that society is better off with men in general being held to a higher standard than thirty years ago.

Re: Final Battle 2020 Official Thread

I've read four or five reviews and it's interesting, I've seen four stars or higher for Dragon Lee / Deppen, the Taven / Vincent tag and the Pure title match but no one review that highly rated all three. Don't know that it means anything, just interesting. Haven't seen the show yet so I can't say m...

Re: Final Battle 2020 Official Thread

I'd like Jay to try to replace PCO and Mark refuse cause he's mad still during the preshow, then have Jay show up with someone during the tag match introductions and add themselves to the match. Dalton Castle would be fun if he's in the bubble.

Re: Final Battle 2020 Official Thread

I agree. Only thing I can think is Dragon Lee retains and they want to protect the challenger by giving him a win and an out for the title match loss.
