That's because BJ just goes out and heels. He doesn't try to have cool catch phrases or say things the crowd can't chant along with. He's just out there being a heel.

Re: Official Best In The World 2016 Thread

Crowd seemed dead. Idk if it's how they Mic'd it or not.

Sullivan almost really killed his spot. He tripped and stumbled on the broken table after he spiked Corino. I laughed at him.

Re: I think it's time for Delirious to step down as booker

The main issue I have is they don't use their TV time effectively in building up the PPV, specific to the main event. Those BS Bullet Club and Jay Lethal retrospective shows were colossal wastes of time that would have been better spent building everything to this PPV.

Re: Official Best In The World 2016 Thread

Do you really think most companies could survive on two singles titles because I don't, look at all the companies in history and they will have more than two and that's why for me ROH is really struggling to find positions and momentum for some of the roster. most struggle with booking ideas becaus...

Re: Random ROH Thoughts Thread

Opinions on ROH using local rings on some house shows (Milwaukee, Hopkins, used to in San Antonio)? Looks kind of bush league for a company trying to be number two in the U.S. A ring is part of a show's overall presentation, dumb to use a ring you don't use for TV on what isessentially an "As ...

Re: Random ROH Thoughts Thread

If El Generico/Sami Zayn were to return to the indies/ROH one day would he be better served returning unmasked as a variation of the Sami Zayn gimmick rather than reverting back to the Generico gimmick? I think he's have better draw power for smaller indie companies that look to draw "casual f...

Re: Official Road To "Best In The World '16" Thread

Romero vs Fish - Crowd was quite for this one but it seemed less like they were dead and more like they were just watching with interest. Unfortunately in never kicked into that second gear like I hoped it would. Then again, do Rocky's singles matches ever live up to what I hope for? Rarely. IDK wh...

Re: Necro Butcher has retired

I'm not a huge fan of the death match stuff, but Necro always knew how to put a match together in a more interesting way than most do. He clearly had a good mind for wrestling far beyond what a lot of indy wrestlers do. I always respected that quite a bit. He's also an embodiment of the great contr...

Re: ROH on SBG Discussion Thread

Taeler Hendrix isn't half bad in her promo spots.

and Silas Young is right into another program, this time with ACH right after his run against Dalton Castle. And I'll be damned if he isn't making me interested already.

Re: Adam Cole's expected NJPW tenure

Even if now is not a fantastic time to be a debuting heavyweight in the Bullet Club, it opens Cole's doors much more to be a heavyweight, especially if there is a long run to consider. He would probably have a hard time getting over as a junior considering the audience's expectations of what top ju...
