O'Reilly is out for at least a year due to neck surgery.

I have a feeling Danielson's match on Dynamite vs. Dax Harwood is going to play a role in setting the World Tag Team Championship match for the show. Danielson wins over Harwood and he and maybe a Yuta or Moxley are granted the tag team championship opportunity. You’ve now made me pine for FTR vs. ...

Tuned in as the Elite antics sounded hilarious, only to see that it was a tame mockery complete with the energy of "see what we did, that was funny, why aren't you laughing yet, bro?" Of course, the beginning of the fan-flaming moments also have to take place during the PIP ad break when w...

As revealed on Rampage, Ring of Honor Final Battle PPV will be headlined by ROH World Champion Chris Jericho vs. Claudio Castagnoli with the stipulation that should Claudio lose, he has to join the Jericho Appreciation Society. That stip will definitely put asses in seats and help secure TV for ROH...

climate and pollen will never be taken seriously by live event promoters

For example:

told anyone who had a problem to come find him. EVPs did go and find him, along with the head of legal, and started throwing punches while his lackey bit people and threw chairs. Power play move to bring the #2 person in the hierarchy along, and emotionally unintelligent not to read Phil's "co...

No, he saw a decent foundation that had plenty of room for improvement, and that morally speaking, the roster's behavior regarding Huber as a display that it wouldn't be so cutthroat and catty; so much so that he was willing to be in the same workplace as Cabana for at least some brief period. He wa...

I don't give a shit what the locker rooms throughout the industry thinks, nor do I care about their morale. I actually appreciate Punk's handling of the situation, because his mind for the business was on full display for a year and he provided something that nobody else was providing. Not sports-en...

The only issue I'd see is the crew and those in attendance suffering allergies, as winter is pollen season throughout TX, and it's the equivalent of springtime pollen throughout the East Coast and Southeast. But things like climate and pollen will never be taken seriously by live event promoters, no...

Not my problem if it rubs other the wrong way at all. Let's not forget that just because I'm applying strong-willed scrutiny (much like Punk was obviously doing), it doesn't mean that I'm a "hate-watcher." Here's the temperature a year ago when this federation earned much more positivity t...

Consider this a venting spot and I've got more long-form response to this. I appreciate someone giving a shit enough to bother talking through this without being an overly attached Kool-Aid drinker, as I don't think the "Since Day One" audience fully grasps the kind of product that the Pun...

It's a special time as we're here with ThROH The Year's 100th EPISODE! We cover ROH's own 100th show, another all-timer in a string of them. Trevor loses it during a segment , you'll know which one. Matt does his Jerry Lawler. We might have figured out a secret dream match that would've happened. T...

There's a clear ceiling to the popularity metrics for the soyboy energy that this federation has; just like WWE, the money is being found in pleasing the corporate TV execs and producing a greater quantity of content rather than improving its quality through coherency, narrative-building, and allowi...

A-list market that's being bundled with Winter is Coming. In addition, there's recent ROH history there due to Supercard of Honor.

ThROH The Years is back with another one of ROH's biggest shows, as well as one of our biggest shows. We cover Better Than Our Best and we brought Alan Counihan along! We cover it all, Dragon Gate, Lance Storm's return, the end of the Homicide/Cabana feud. Other topics include: churning butter, dry...

Not sure which of us had their time wasted more here -- you by typing that up or me by reading it. But thank you. I don't give a shit anymore about expressing myself in a way that is palatable to AEW's "Day 1" portion of the consumer base considering that they tend to enable the apparent ...

I've been too busy traveling to keep this section updated, but I love the tabloid value that this federation is providing now. Sure, I'd love for Tony Khan to start acting like an alpha male instead of a little passive-aggressive bitch who showed up at his biggest show of the year dressed up like he...

ThROH The Years presents one of the biggest shows in its history covering one of the biggest shows in ROH history, the original Supercard of Honor. We cover the legendary Dragon Gate Six-Man from a million angles, examining its influence on wrestling. We also feast on the heavy meal that is the end...

ThROH The Years begins ROH's first triple shot with triple voices. That's right, first time guest Chad Campbell @bigboysplaywcw joins us to run down Dragon Gate Challenge. It's a show that ends the Christopher Daniels/Samoa Joe feud...kinda. It also is in some ways the birth of Dragon Gate's US inf...

I won't apologizing inserting my editorial observation that a good chunk of the BTE crew is smarmy, catty, two-faced, entitled, and dismissive, and they decided they should keep that attitude up against someone who other than roid monkeys and those who have committed murder, may be the most high-str...
