Re: Official Reload Tour 2015 Thread

What if this was the show in your town, though? What if you were thinking about buying a ticket to this show? I think people buy tickets or order shows to see wrestler A beat wrestler B. The idea is you should be thinking, "Wow, I wonder which of these guys will win" or "Man, I hope ...

Some Slightly Out of Date Fantasy Booking from BRM

I started this right before Aries' return was announced, having been inspired by this forum's discussion of Aries possibly joining the Kingdom and the return of Trios Tournament. I have taken the rough tournament outline from a post by Marketh on the ROHWorld forum, but have added a few of my own tw...

Re: Official Reload Tour 2015 Thread

LOL. Just realized I sound like I'm agree with both sides here. That's what I get for reading each post and responding to it one at a time instead of waiting until the end. Good points by both sides. As a result of this, I have come up with a "best of both worlds" type of finish for this m...

Re: Official Reload Tour 2015 Thread

Lethal beating Moose clean is the worst posible booking because it hurts Moose and doesn´t do anything for Lethal because it´s not even a Title Match. If Moose has a competitive match with Lethal and Cedric cost him the match you elevate Moose and keep his feud with Cedric without hurting anyone. L...

Re: Official Reload Tour 2015 Thread

This shitty feud with Alexander is hurting him a lot more than losing to the world (and TV) champion clean. Again, you don't have to book this match if you can't have a proper finish, that's the whole point of pro wrestling. What's stopping Delirious to book Moose vs. some local guy in a squash or ...

Re: Official Reload Tour 2015 Thread

It´s what it should happen, Cedric costing Moose the match (DQ or not) to follow their feud If everyone can predict the DQ and interference finishes from a mile away, there is a booking problem and there are too many screwy finishes. It's particularly bad in this case considering the recent Briscoe...

He might be over in other places (OVW, I guess), but he's not over in ROH and he never puts on good matches, so what is the purpose of booking him?

Re: Weekly TV Show On ROH.com

It's probably BS, but I'm hoping it's not simply because I DESPISE the player ROH uses. Sometimes when I unpause it it just randomly jumps ahead a random amount of time. It's extremely annoying.

It's honestly a shame too if this does happen, he's suuuper talented. Maybe a tag team will give him something. Maybe with Marcus, team of weirdos lol I would be fine with that team and it's not like Louis will resume his feud with Breeze anytime soon, but Louis is also a guy I can see on the next ...

Re: The WWE Thread

word on the street is that cena is going to start wearing a lucha mask & win his 16th world title as "Juan Cena". And when he finally wins the title, they'll tell him he must unmask because masked wrestlers can't win the title, and thus the win won't count and he'll have to come back ...

Re: Bizarre Kevin Kelly Commentary

On the same episode of ROH TV: During Brutal Bob/Cheeseburguer: "Their last match ended in a stoppage!" In the main event: "There are no stoppages in professional wrestling!" HAH! I caught that too, hilarious. To be fair, I believe the second time he meant stoppage as in "L...

Re: ROH Road To Best In The World Night 1 Review

In some ways this show was a microcosm of some of the problems with the post-Cornette Delirious booking. He'll often do these double-shots that, while the action is pretty good, ultimately mean nothing creatively. For example, the 2015 Best in the World Tour easily could have been condensed down int...

Re: ROH Road To Best In The World Night 1 Review

ROH Road to Best in the World: Night 1 (6/6/2014)- Carbondale, IL Kevin Kelly is alone on commentary. The crowd looks to be pitifully small (for ROH, anyway). I’d say about 200 at most, so it looks like this first show in Carbondale will be the only one. Let’s see how it goes... TOMMASO CIAMPA vs. E...

Re: Supercard of Honor X - April 1-2, 2016 - Dallas, TX

Here's a scenario to discuss: Should ROH continue to make Friday night the company's marquee weekend event, or turn it into more of a go-home event for a more important Saturday matinee show? Doing it the latter way allows for the more important event to not have to go head-to-head with NXT, which ...
