Somehow only watched Era of Honor Begins the other day. I totally forgot about the Christopher Street Connection. Man, the company's come a long way.

In 2002, I would've found that funny. Then again, I was 10.

Blurb from Kevin Kelly's View from Ringside that was posted today.
We know who the “big money” players are in Ring of Honor but it is far from a closed group. As the Matchmaker of ROH, Nigel McGuinness is always looking to add names into the mix but it is not a matter of just adding bodies. He is looking for the “undeniable”, those that exude talent, gushing from every pore of their bodies.
I don't know if that was intended, but I love the little nod to Nigel's world title win in what he's looking for in talent.

I hope we get Tag Wars in the Road to Final Battle shows, tag team division is stacked, they should use that and do a tournament.

Is it plausible for me to think that at some point, I really want to see Dalton Castle become Ashley Remington in ROH? Like, he receives a "concussion", forgets who Dalton Castle is, and becomes Ashley Remington. Maybe with an arrogant spin on the character, too.

No, because that's the short of sh*t TNA does (see: Park, Joseph and Abyss, The Monster)

Hahaha, maybe. It wouldn't be ROH making a new character the way TNA did, just taking an already established character, with a different spin.

Out of all the NJPW talent the one I want to see more of in ROH is Karl Anderson. I loved his matches in 2013, would like to see more of him as a singles guy in ROH.

Today I've been re-watchig the Honor Takes Center Stage shows and I think next years Best in the World should 100% be in Atlanta at this venue. It looks phenomenal, they could easily sell it out, and with ROH doing the new Japan shows in May again(Where I'm assuming they will be running in NYC) they probably wouldn't run BITW in NYC again.

That name will always remind me of the Mortal Kombat character. Bad ass.

Congratulations to them.

Yeah, I've been surprised they haven't returned to Center Stage on the recent shows since they've been drawing so well in Atlanta. For my money the most professional looking set up they've run, and that was at a time when production values were much lower than they are today. Everything is already set up. They should really film some TV there.
Not to mention the great wrestling history of the building.

I suppose they will team up with CMLL and not with AAA because of (or thanks to) NJPW.
Apparently, they will have 3 professional cameras to film the event so there is a chance we'll see his match one day.
