Re: ALL PURPOSE CONTRACT STATUS/POTENTIAL DEPARTURES THREAD

Funny that you mentioned Mark Henry, whom they tried to saddle with a freaking Silverback Gorilla gimmick in 2007.

Re: ALL PURPOSE CONTRACT STATUS/POTENTIAL DEPARTURES THREAD

Because we totally didn't just have a year+ long Jay Lethal World Title reign. If there are specific allegations regarding specific cases I'll be glad to read them and then reconsider, but until then I tend to discount the idea that racism is much of a factor. Makes even less sense that Cedric would...

Re: ALL PURPOSE CONTRACT STATUS/POTENTIAL DEPARTURES THREAD

Only one mention that is better than Kelly is Joey Styles, Stiker is Josh Matthews levels of bad. Sometimes Striker goes rogue and craps up a whole show, but he does at least call the action. And I think he's fantastic for Lucha Underground. His AAA and NJPW commentary obviously wasn't up to par. N...

Re: ALL PURPOSE CONTRACT STATUS/POTENTIAL DEPARTURES THREAD

They should have pushed him when they had the chance.

Don't make the same mistake with Dalton Castle or Adam Page.

And while we're at it, elevate Mark Briscoe and Silas Young up the card.

And I could do with a victory lap world title reign for Daniels. Turn him face and have Frankie betray him.

Re: OBSERVER SCOOP: WWE NETWORK CHANGES AFFECTING ROH AND TN

I'd let them put ROH TV on the network. It really wouldn't be much different from ROH TV being on the Fite TV app, Fight Network, NESN, etc. Just another syndication partner. But screw letting WWE use ROH's library to get more people on the Network. ROH needs to get its own app with a subscription s...

Re: ALL PURPOSE NEW TALENT/SPECIAL ATTRACTION THREAD

Doesn't sound like a bad time to be Cody Rhodes.

Debuts for TNA at Bound for Glory, guest starring on Arrow, then debuts for ROH at Final Battle. I wouldn't be surprised at all to see him at Wrestle Kingdom 11 at this rate. Just do a world tour of flagship wrestling shows.

So I take that to mean he's either buying it and changing the name or it'll be sold off and gutted by WWE or someone else.

Re: ALL PURPOSE CONTRACT STATUS/POTENTIAL DEPARTURES THREAD

I'd take Bennett back if it were the only way to get Maria Kanellis back, but Mike was always the worst member of the Kingdom.

As for Moose, the guy is still improving. I'd take a shot on him if they had an interesting feud lined up. He did seem to have some good chemistry with Lio Rush.

Re: ALL PURPOSE CONTRACT STATUS/POTENTIAL DEPARTURES THREAD

Graves is fine compared to most everybody else in WWE but I don't see him as any better than Kelly/Corino. And certainly not on the level of Striker/ Vampiro or Barnett/JR.

I heard Schiavone is working at a Starbucks. Somebody call him up.

Re: ALL PURPOSE CONTRACT STATUS/POTENTIAL DEPARTURES THREAD

Kevin Kelly isn't the best by a long shot but you could do a lot worse.

See:
Josh Mathews
The Pope
everybody on any WWE show not named Mauro Ranallo

I'd be down for some fresh blood on ROH commentary, but be careful what you ask for.

I'd love to see Joey Styles or Matt Striker come in.

“After signing up MLB, the NBA and soccer, who do you call?” he said. Um, the NFL, NHL, CFL, AFL, NLL, MLL, WNBA, UFC, boxing, tennis, golf, auto racing?

Re: Why I'm Taking a Break

You make some points I agree with and some others I don't, but ultimately you don't have to justify your preferences to the rest of us. If ROH doesn't do it for you anymore, you don't owe it to them to keep watching. Personally, I still think ROH's overall product is leagues better than WWE, NXT, TN...

Re: ROH Announces New 6-Man Tag Titles

Anybody have some other ideas for possible teams?

How about Dalton Castle and the Boys?

I'd say Silas and the Bruiser should enter, but I can't really come up with a third guy that fits with them.

They have to earn back the trust of wrestling fans before people are going to spend any amount of money on their product. Whether that be PPVs, tickets (if they actually ran a venue that would let them charge for them, anyway), DVDs, merch, etc. TNA struggled selling merch and PPVs when they were ge...
