Re: Davey Richards "American Bandit"

Very sad to see all of this. Richards really was someone I once respected but it seems he's let his ego swell to a terrible level. It makes me sadder that some ROH fans defend the unprofessional actions of his team, especially Kozina. Don't defend this immature behavior with the old "wrestling ...

Re: Major ROH star to vent his frustration?

ROH is doing alot of things wrong right now and I can see it being frustrating for guys who were promised things right before the Sinclair deal was signed. I know I was promised some things that never materialized and several of the employees and wrestlers I know seem to have gotten similar treatmen...

Re: #ROHWorldChamp Trends On Twitter

its a little more surprising to me that Curt Hawkins and The Rock are pals trading videos of independent wrestlers. Very cool for Steen though, abit inconsequential for ROH.

Re: The TNA Thread

Gonna try to get to Destination X tomorrow because it looks like a killer show. How has TNA somehow become the best wrestling show on TV? Bizarro world we live in but I credit it to my pal-o Lagana, unsurprisingly he has turned that ship around. And hopefulllyyyyyy I'll be part of that ship soon if ...

Re: Kenny King set to wrestle on TNA tonight

He has all rights to join TNA, the thing is that he did it after agree verbally to extend his contract with ROH, if you have a company not wrestling but any company and an employer do that you can act like nothing happen, is business you can make bussines with someone that don´t keep his words what...

Re: ROH Tag Team Titles what now

King should throw the belt in the trash on Impact. Fuck it, just throw it in a dumpster while on his way to the show in that trashy shithole called Orlando. Say "this used to be mean something, but guess what? I went with a company that has gone in a new direction, where real opportunities are...

That´s amazing, that ROH should do say hey Kenny King we trust you but whatever when TNA get tired of you even you don´t have any word we will bring you back so you can use us until you have another contract. Sure King would "use" ROH for a spotlight from a bigger company, I believe most ...

Re: Kenny King set to wrestle on TNA tonight

ROH really has no ground to stand on here. King wasn't under exclusive contract meaning he was legally allowed to not only negotiate with promotions but also preform with them. I can understand ROH being upset by one of their spotlight stars wrestling on another show but unfortunately only they are ...

Re: NEW Best In The World Poster

Good work here, there was a time after ROH went in-house that their posters and DVDs were simply atrocious but for the most part they'v gotten alot better in the graphic design department. I wish that would carry over to their website which at times is lacking but eh, that's a different story altoge...

Re: McGuinness talks commentary and his documentary

I think Nigel's match with KENTA at the 8th Anniversary Show was one of his last truly amazing ones, its the perfect analogy for Nigel's run as champion, he really sacrificed his body in that match to give the fans some entertainment. I've got so much respect for the guy and I really wish he didn't ...

Re: Would you buy digital downloads from ROH?

I really feel like if ROH got into the digital download business 2-3 years ago the lowering DVD sales wouldn't had been so devastating and Cary would still own the company. DVD business was impacted by the economy but I don't think people stopped buying media in mass numbers, they just bought it dig...

Re: ... Is the end near?

ROH won't go under for I'd say at least three more years, if Sinclair were to drop their investment too quicky their stock owners would lose confidence fast. But is the end of "ROH" the brand we recognized over? Perhaps. I've made my thoughts on the subject known in other threads but poor ...

Re: I fell asleep watching Richards/Steen last night.

I admittedly doze off a bit during Final Battle 2009's main event of Aries vs. Black. And I actually enjoyed it. Although Steen vs Richards wasn't a classic I think the sleeping has more to do with you being tired and less to do with the match quality to be honest.

Re: NJPW ruined Davey Richards

As someone who was beautifully filling in Danielson's shadow after his departure, yeah Richards has been the biggest dissapointment in my time as an ROH fan. He had a perfect balance of grappling and striking and told fantastic stories (His match with Strong at Final Battle was really underrated). N...

Re: Your ring of honor

I talked to Cabana and the new company basically just unceremoniously stopped booking him. Its so absurd, not only is he super over with ROH fans and a pillar of ROH history but he's damn entertaining and offers diversity to the overly MMA-lite wrestlers these days. Plus he's a great storyteller in ...

Phew, I just don't understand the direction of ROH these days, creatively and business wise they seem both inept and stuck in another era. Sinclair officials obviously don't have experience running pro wrestling promotions with their referential knowledge coming from airing territories on their synd...

Re: Thank You, Davey!

In the end it was sort of dissapointing. It was built up (I guess I partly contributed to this as this was the intention of most of the hype before BITW) as the climax of a coming-to-age story, the fufillment of a boyhood dream. But unfortunately all the emotion of the buildup to his title win and t...
