Re: Final Battle 2020 Predictions

And its not like Mark has a singles feud going so what is he supposed to do? Stay on the sidelines till Jay wraps up his things? I'm just saying, if this was trying to portray how people act in real life instead of making people act how the storyline needs them to act, Jay would wait a show to wres...

Re: Final Battle 2020 Predictions

Jay versus EC3 is official. Which is whatever, the story is fine but I hate the idea of Mark picking a new partner as if Jay and Mark haven't gone off into singles feuds before.

Re: Random ROH Thoughts Thread

I'm re-watching the 10th anniversary show this week, Red and Perkins versus Strong and Elgin was a really great undercard tag. Between this and Jimmy Rave retiring, it has me thinking about how and why ROH brings guys back (or don't more often). I was excited for the Past versus Present show due to ...

Re: Jimmy Rave has retired

I know he had (has?) his demons, but I always hoped he had another extended run in him, like Jimmy Jacobs or Whitmer. His 2005 Embassy stuff was obviously his peak in ROH, but his late 06 / early 07 stuff with the heel hook showed he wasn't one dimensional.

Re: Davey Richards

I'd take the Wolves over the SCS (not enough great matches), MCMG (best stuff was in other promotions), War Machine (ditto), AotF (not enough great matches). Briscoes, redDRagon and Bucks are way ahead of them. Second tier with Aries / Strong, KOW and Steen / Generico seems fair to me. Wolves had gr...

Re: Davey Richards

Eh. I mean, lots of matches have absurd no selling and a million head drops and a dozen near falls etc, it's hardly just Davey. It's like watching a Bucks match for me, you are almost guaranteed to roll your eyes at some point, but it's hard for me to not appreciate the pace and execution. Anything ...

Re: Supercard Weekend in Tampa Bay (WM36 on 4/5/2020)

I would expect Jay to win too, but it could be as simple as Marty wins in some sort of disputed finish and NJPW gets to run the rematch on one of their US shows which seem to struggle for interesting matches. Poor man's Cody / Kenny. I just looked at the New Beginning USA cards, and Marty would legi...

Re: 18th Anniversary Official Thread

So Rush versus PCO feels 95% confirmed with the PCO / Haskins / Rush loser who doesn't get beat facing the winner. Pretty convoluted booking imo. Don't know why you wouldn't just do PCO / Haskins then promote Rush versus the winner. So maybe there is a twist coming. One would presume Marty likes Mar...

Re: Ring of Honor Events Schedule Thread

It's kind of nuts how many guys from the early days of ROH are still wrestling 18 years later, it really (to me at least) shows the dedication required to get even a little over in wrestling. It's one thing for an AJ Styles or Christopher Daniels, guys who have been making and continue to make decen...

Re: Ring of Honor Events Schedule Thread

Don't know what kind of shape he in, but Jimmy Rave is still active. Erick Stevens would be a good one, he seems to be in pretty great shape right now.

Re: Random ROH Thoughts Thread

The problem with free tickets is there's no skin in the game. No reason not to pick up tickets in case you don't have anything better going on then just dump them if you have other plans or you don't like the card or whatever. Hopefully it won't be a big issue but I'm sure they'll be a higher percen...

Bullet Club vs Villain Enterprises? I'd rather see a title match, but it wouldn't surprise me if they go this way.

Re: Ring of Honor Events Schedule Thread

Rovert is hinting NJPW will still be working with ROH going forward and mentioned the BC Block Party being relevant to ROH. I think it's been rumored elsewhere that GOD may be part of SCoH, but Jay White and / or KENTA would be good gets, if they can book them.

Re: Random ROH Thoughts Thread

I imagine Maff will have to set the record for time in between ROH matches. Off the top of my head, the longest I can remember was Paul London (almost ten years), this will be over fourteen.

EDIT: Sumie Sakai probably had over ten years between matches.

Re: ROH UK Tour

London looks better than I remember thinking it was. It's missing the main event caliber matches Bolton has, but it's six or seven deep with good matches. Newport is light in comparison, although it's three main tag matches all look real good. Lot of fresh matches on this tour.
