I still can't believe Pearce never ended up doing commentary during his run with the book. I thought he would have been perfect for it, specifically opposite the HOG~! (I'm a big fan of Hogewood - most aren't) or Lenny Leonard.

We'll see. I fear they'll rush through some matches early on and this show ends up clocking in at 2 hours or so.

I really have enjoyed TD on TV recently and iTV(?). Silas has always been a solid guy. Hopefully this is the start of a huge push for TD! Anyway, Young vs. Thomas at DBDX is now an SOTF-qualifier because of Ciampa's injury.

I'd argue that he's probably right, but that WGTT probably don't draw money either.

I'll be there live in the front row with my wife. Lots of possible good stuff on the card, but will it get time to deliver? That's the question that's been bugging me for a couple of weeks now.

It's funny to think back about the emotions going around regarding Danielson's match at WM. And because of it, now he's bigger and more over than he was. Not only that, he's become quite a major player in WWE.

I Remember a lot (A LOT) of ROH fans that wanted WGTT in ROH after they both fired... just listen to the reaction they got at DBD. You can't say ROH brought them ONLY because they are big names. They both good wrestlers (Shelton looked wayyy better in NJPW than ROH for some reason) More Shelton tha...

I was pretty impressed myself. I don't think his loss to QT is that big a deal. Both guys still need a lot of work, and staying on the undercard isn't going to hurt either of them. *I really don't think QT is that bad, which seems to be the common sentiment. He plays a big cocky old school wrestler...

I would love to see Heyman's view. I think he's proven many times before that he's very good at taking the reigns from previous bookers (ECW, OVW, SmackDown!) and producing gold. I have absolute faith that he could come in and create a product that would outshine what's been going on in the past yea...

I was there for that

Outside of a perfectly fun Bravados/SCUM match, this might be the worst or at least most boring episode of ROH yet.

I really think they don't see the value in the Bucks, fm2000.

Supersonic stealing my thunder

Here's something that's interesting: it's only $200 more to fly-in the Young Bucks compared to Haas/Benjamin (assuming Haas/Benjamin are flying out of Texas where I assume they both still live). But you've got to imagine that the Haas/Benjamin get paid more for a show than the Bucks, so in some ways...

Is that $ 1,300 per person or $ 1,300 for both? Either way some accountant for Sinclair sees that Coleman , Alexander , Adam Page , Briscoes , Lance / Harlem and others can drive their car to the matches. Also Roderick Strong , Jay Lethal and others are Florida flyins . Therefore they are not booke...

I certainly hope not, as SMW went out of business not too long after those guys came in

The Young Bucks are a victim of their location. Apparently ROH , like TNA , does not like to buy airline tickets for the Bucks . I have no inside info , just a wild guess. Two round trip tickets across North America would be $ 3 to $ 4 , 000 dollars. The money has to come from somewhere. If , ROH p...

I really enjoyed him on TV. Seeing him increased the disappointment in Marshall winning the contract match. That was the second match I've seen with Marshall in it that I felt Marshall was completely outshined by others in (in the Boiling Point four way match I thought Antonio was the standout).

***.

I don't want to see Lethal with the ROH World Title, just no on that. What ROH should do is reach out to El Generico, he comes back, and takes down Steen to become the new! ROH World Champion then El Generico can drop the title to Cole at the Anniversary Show. If ROH doesn't go after Generico, I wo...
