Re: Final Battle 2015 Live on (I)PPV - December 18, 2015

So I decided to save 45 bucks and just watch the season finale of NJ AXS instead of ordering Final Battle. There's just no intrigue in the Lethal vs Styles title match with AJ's back injury and the announcement that the ROH title will be defended at WK10. And if it turns out the show was great, you...

Re: ROH Strikes Deal w/ PWG

This news tell ROH in California won't happen unlike Tokyo. This makes it more likely ROH will run in California. My best guess is that there will be a NJPW/ ROH supershow in LA this year. PWG could be involved as the local promoter. Anything could happen now. I wouldn't trust PWG to promote a show...

Re: The PWG Thread

Anyone who doesn't think PWG is putting the best and most consistent product out there today in North America; or maybe even the world, is insane If by 'the best' you mean pulling random names out of a hat for booking, spotfests, and one eternal storyline of 'The Young Bucks and their buddies are d...

I'd imagine that this is exactly the case.
It also probably helps them with Kyle O'Reilly's contract negotiations.

Re: Road to Final Battle Review

The Four Corner Survival did translate well. The Book of Truth thing didn't make it onto the VOD.
In hindsight, the finish really should have been that shot with the Book of Truth.

Re: Random ROH Thoughts Thread

ROH has been in existence for 5,041 days. Jay Briscoe has held the ROH world title for a combined 375 days, and the ROH tag team championship for a combined 807 days. Jay Briscoe has held gold 23% of the time since the company's inception. Stats. It gets even crazier when you consider that Jay was ...

Re: ROH Strikes Deal w/ PWG

Kind of weird they had a press release on this, and compared it to the NJPW relationship. It would be cool if they allowed the ROH guys to start wearing their PWG titles on ROH shows, maybe having matches and feuds that cross over between promotions officially (since this happens anyways) and coord...

Re: Road to Final Battle Review

I also think ROH made a big mistake by not using this show to set up a back-up plan of some sort in case AJ Styles’ injury prevents him from wrestling at Final Battle. What I would have done was given Moose a Proving Ground match with Lethal on this show (his Proving Ground match in Chicago three m...

Re: Random ROH Thoughts Thread

Most likely Kelly being a clueless idiot as always. Steen got his rematch by winning a 4-way for a title shot at State of the Art (vs. Cole at GW 2014). Briscoe got his when he beat Steen at The Golden Dream (vs. Cole vs. Elgin at FB 2013). Cole won SOTF 2014 to get his rematch (vs. Jay at FB 2014)...

Re: Random ROH Thoughts Thread

So what? He shouldn't have to win SOTF to get a rematch. Every champion always gets a rematch, just to ensure that the new champ's win wasn't a fluke. That's how it has always been. Except Davey Richards was the last guy to get a one-on-one rematch for the World Title after losing it...so it's been...

Re: Top Prospect 2016

Why is there this perception that ROH only books talent that goes to they try out camps, and not big names? How about Styles, The Addiction, Sabin, Shelley, Del Rio, Aries, Joe, Young Bucks, Anderson & Gallows, KES, Roppongi Vice, Stevie Richards, Sydal, Compton, etc. It probably doesn't make s...

Of course he will. In the main event of the last ever show, Daniels will win the world title, then use the power it gives him to destroy ROH and the Prophecy will have the last laugh.

Re: Top Prospect 2016

No one is saying that ROH should stop doing the camps. We're saying that it's a very bad idea to ONLY take talent that agrees to go to the camps first, and an even worse idea to push guys like Ferrara because they went to the camps rather than try to find one of the hundred indy workers who are jus...

Re: Who will be the next Triple Crown Champion?

Lethal and Dijak as tag team champions would be cool, but I don't think it will happen quickly. I actually thought they missed a huge opportunity by not setting up a tag title shot for Lethal and Dijak while Lethal had both singles titles. It's one of those situations where everyone knows they woul...

Re: Elgin now a free agent

It makes sense to have Lethal go over to Japan before the Honor Rising- Japan 2016 shows, and from what I understand, NJPW feels that it makes WK feel bigger if they have an outside world title being defended. What makes the most sense to me is to have Lethal defend the title and decisively defeat ...
