Re: ALL PURPOSE CONTRACT STATUS/POTENTIAL DEPARTURES THREAD

One Friday the hammer will drop. Accounting will tell creative that there labor cost is too high . People will Tony Nese , Drew Gulak , TJ Perkins , Cedric Alexander , Johnny Garagano and a whole bunch of trainers will get pink slips. Companies cannot afford to have people on the payroll just to ke...

Re: RATE IT: Adam Cole vs. Shinsuke Nakamura (ROH TV)

I've seen Nakamura phone matches in and this didn't seem like one on first watch. More selling than usual compared to his NXT stuff. Cole was fine here. Not a fan of Nigel in this one though - we get it, he wasn't targeting the knee as much later. Nigel was drawing way too much attention to it, in a...

Re: THANK YOU CHRIS HERO

I don't know why you would root against the guy achieving this goal. It isn't like he's going there against his will.

The news may have been premature - and Hero is rightfully pissed about that - but it isn't something made up.

Re: ROH Comps List

Just as I was FINALLY about to buy WGTT as well... :lol: How the hell did they even sell out of that crap? I was convinced they'd stay in stock until the company's dying day. I picked this bad boy up for under $5 new in an eBay auction. A 1-disc comp too! I didn't even know they had any that light ...

This never happening still surprises me. When he took off in NXT I thought for sure they'd run a bunch off.

I could see a Sydal set. ROH vs. CZW was finally released as a VOD (and worth the purchase imo).

I've referenced this thread a good bit over the years. Deserves a bump and update.

ROH's 2016 TV Match of the Year

In the ROH 2016 MOTY thread there were not any TV matches nominated, so let's break these out into their own thread for discussion. I'll throw out ten to get us started. What were your favorite TV matches from this past year? Kingdom/reDRagon/Bucks - Philly Street Fight Lio Rush/Punishment Martinez ...

Re: Corino/Whitmer

I just don't get this at all..... You want to throw a female into the mix of the storyline, and use said female to "pick on" sweet Mandy Leon....ok, cool I get it...why wouldn't you use Klein in that role? Much more believable in terms of overpowering female. This is not an endorsement of...

Re: Official Final Battle 2016: Aftermath TV Tapings Thread

I like seeing Bruiser and Young beat the crap out of James, but at the same time this worries me that James is with the company and will be on TV more. Hopefully it's a one off for them to beat up. I'll be honest, I was totally onboard with those guys being a trio and working for the 6-man belts. I...

Re: Official Final Battle 2016: Aftermath TV Tapings Thread

So did they really not do anything to tie up the Boozar Moocan sh*t? Corino came out with Sullivan, Whitmer and Martinez for this so guessing a vignette explains that Cody was the second coming or whatever and Corino had accepted the terms that only one of them could survive in ROH. Corino was very...

Re: ROH 2016 TV Worker of the Year

The TPT featuring a **** match with Punisher Martinez (plus the other two rounds, which were good), the Dijak match, the tag with Jay White vs the Briscoes, and the Gresham match standout. It's another small feather, but I finally caught the 4-on-4 match from FB weekend TV. That match was built aro...

Re: ALL PURPOSE CONTRACT STATUS/POTENTIAL DEPARTURES THREAD

Talent is always leaving ROH for WWE and other places. That's been a big part of the company's fabric since 2003, and it's not changing anytime soon. Does it seem like that more than usual have been leaving in the past year? Yes. Are more people probably leaving? It seems like it. Have talents been...

Re: ROH MVP 2016

Here's an interesting pick: Kevin Kelly. Things started seemingly to tighten up TV and PPV wise when the rumors of involvement increased. The second half of 2015 and first half of 2016 were a little flatter than normal. Kevin Kelly gets promoted and things change for the better. Am I reading too mu...

Let's be honest, not only do people change but in this case you're talking a whole new leadership group.

Man that was an all-time shot show though.

ROH 2016 TV Worker of the Year

This isn't a year-in-review category here, but something I've put some thought into. If you asked me in June it was KUSHIDA, but in taking the whole year into account, I could make a strong case that Lio Rush had the best year on TV for ROH. The TPT featuring a **** match with Punisher Martinez (plu...

You'll need to update your talking points rohfan237, Rovert said on twitter (the night of Final Battle - to Sean Sedor) that 12/31 isn't a thing now and that some midcard acts could trickle out as their deals expire in the spring. Six months of beating that drum that no one is happy and it went out ...

Deonna Purrazzo got quite the shine at the Sunday tapings. She was a memorable part of the No DQ match.

Hendrix/Leon/Klein/Purrazzo as the focal points for now?

Re: Tuesday Rollout

That Lockport show is seemingly available now. While many would just brush off the 10% holiday sale, combining the 15% ringside membership + free shipping isn't bad at all. The shipping is usually killer, especially if you're grabbing slightly older shows that are nicely priced (6.99-9.99). When you...
