Re: Random ROH Thoughts Thread

After watching these past week's shows I had a sudden realization: The Decade gets 100x more heat the the Kingdom does. Which is weird. Maria is hot. BJ is not. Rare is the hot chick that's a spokespiece that draws heat. It also doesn't help that Bennett and Taven tend to act more goofy heel than h...

Re: The deal is done, The Young Bucks have signed with ROH.

Roddy's and ACH's shirts are still available on PWT, it's not really an exclusivity ( even if the new ACH's contract hasn't started yet apparently). Maybe they re-evaluated their offer to be more attractive since Cole and reDRagon. Dave is reporting that part of the Bucks' deal was that they could ...

I wonder if... ...Strong loses to Alexander here to set up a future title match, possibly at Final Battle ? I hope that will be the case because the second gentleman you mentioned really needs something to do right now, and I would fully support him winning the proposed Final Battle match that you ...

Re: Official Survival of the Fittest 2015 Thread

Lethal not having the belt also allows you to do the Lethal vs. Nakamura match they've teased with Nakamura winning but without beating the ROH World Champion. As far as AJ winding up with the IC belt goes, based on Nakamura's "open challenge" comments recently, I'm pretty sure it won't be...

Re: The WWE Thread

That was the best Raw in MONTHS!
It's funny how that happens when you focus on simple stories and in-ring action instead of long promos and dumb backstage skits.

Re: Official Glory By Honor XIV (Champions vs. All-Stars) Th

Well that was a show that happened. That ACH injury sure seems like a big fat lie to protect him since he wasn't going to win now that Styles was out. Um, sure. They were totally terrified about not subbing in someone super over like Castle to accomplish what AJ would have done to the same effect. ...

Re: Official Glory By Honor XIV (TV Tapings) Thread

Shouldn't Roddy be defending against the winner of the ACH vs. Sydal series. If that match isn't happening on TV or PPV, then it makes no sense to have put the series on TV and PPV in the first place. Fish vs. Roddy definitely has build to it (Fish got screwed out of the TV Title at the PPV and beat...

Re: Official Survival of the Fittest 2015 Thread

It would have been nice for the article to mention that Kyle and Bobby didn't lose the belts cleanly and haven't been cleanly beaten in a title match since then. Otherwise it looks like the only reason they're getting a tag title shot is because Cole screwed Kyle out of the world title, rather than ...

Then what would you do with AJ Styles? The thing is (and I've seen this mentioned elsewhere), Ibushi has many more options for the Toyko Dome. If AJ Styles doesn't challenge Nakamura for the Intercontinental Title, then what does Styles do? Styles wins the ROH World Title at Final Battle and has hi...

Re: Official Survival of the Fittest 2015 Thread

The complain with the all singles qualifying was that the matches never good the time to be anything special in some cases they can showcase more in a multiman match than in a singles match. That's funny. I thought that was the one thing that the two-night format actually accomplished last year. Fo...

Re: Official Survival of the Fittest 2015 Thread

That fourway looks so unappealing. Agreed. If you're going to give these SOTF qualifiers their own night, at least take advantage of that to let guys like Rowe or King or Titus prove themselves as singles wrestlers. Hell... even Kaz hasn't really been given the chance to have a great singles match ...

Re: Official Survival of the Fittest 2015 Thread

So basically he just split the tag team division up into the two four-ways. I'm not a fan. It just seems to me like lazy booking meant as an excuse to say "these four teams have been going at it for months!" and then throw them into a four-way at Final Battle rather than actually attemptin...

Re: Official Glory By Honor XIV (Champions vs. All-Stars) Th

The last Glory by Honor, while not a Champions vs All Stars, was also buried here for being a weak card not befitting a major show (Lethal vs Evans and Briscoe vs ACH headlined). Like I said last year...GBH is no longer a major show. The only thing separating it from being another stop on a generic...

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: Official Glory By Honor XIV (Champions vs. All-Stars) Th

Then again, it really is a house show. Oh I know, but they tend to beef up those bigger house shows a bit at the very least. Here, it feels like any random "Tour" or "Road to" show outside of the main event which really isn't that stacked to begin with (well, for now anyway). Pe...
