Bandido vs Flamita was awesome. My only criticism is that Flamita only sold the leg when it was convenient to the match. Limps when Bandido targets it or at lulls in the action, then suddenly is hopping from the floor to the top and running full speed across the ring with ease. Bandido sold the arm injury the entire time he was on screen.

I didn't need the build up to Milonas turning heel with Bruiser. He should have just done it from the start.
I disagree on the Milonas front. I think it really added a depth to story, make it more realistic (which separates ROH from the WWE), furthered the OGK and gave them a win, and fully introduced a character in an engaging way. The only negative is that they spent the limited time they have on this when there are arguably more important stories not being told. But if ROH had multiple hours a week and this was in addition to other things, I think it was a mid-card home run.

Hopefully Andrade is in Baltimore this week....

Should be another good/interesting episode this week. I'm curious to see how things go with FLip & EC3. They've been a bit of an after thought the past month or so post 19th anniversary. Think these guys should be challenging for the ROH title; or a major angle.
This really has been ROH's one glaring week spot post pandemic reboot. Next week's episode is the first continuation of these guys from the last PPV. Something reminded me of Josh Woods the other day, and I had honestly forgot all about the issue between Silas and him. There has been nothing anywhere regarding the two of them since the PPV has there?

Hopefully this isn't about his contract. Hopefully it is about fans returning.

I don't know if it's about fans but I doubt it's about a contract.

He just signed in February so unless he signed a 6 month deal that can't be it.

He also chose a picture with ROH turnbuckles and the Pure title in the image. Can't imagine he'd do that if he were announcing a departure.

AAA had a world trios title change today and, for unknown reasons, only had two of the three belts on hand.

AAA gonna AAA.

Nothing at all. I just posted it here because there's no AAA thread in the other section and it's not worthy of its own thread. It's not like there was a flowing ROH discussion I've interrupted.

That's a decent use for PCO. He definitely shouldn't be a singles guy at this point.

I really like them putting DanHausen and PCO together. Gives them both purpose; certainly let's them be entertaining together, in their unique ways. I like that DanHausen is kind of like an evil puppet master, with the wild PCO. I'm interested to see where they can go with it.

I think it’s a sensible solution for both, it should ultimately hide each’s faults especially as Danhausen looks to improve his in ring work. It can very much play as a classic tag role of Danhausen taking the believable beating while PCO being their for the hot tag.

Hopefully PCO has a lot of knowledge to bestow on Danhausen as he could improve leaps and bounds mentally.

Well, he'd be a very nice and very evil puppet master.

Seems like odd timing for the SOTF; ... i'm guessing this is setting up for Best in the world? WIth an hour of TV, and the World, Tag, TV, Pure, and Trio's titles all fighting for air time; along with the new women's division. Having SOTF on now; with TV seems like it's not the best timing. Who knows... Maybe they do a few web -exclusives... or it's like an HonorClub Event; that they air highlights on TV. Not sure. :roll:

(Ahh... it was a fan poll on the ROH FB page i see now)

The other thing; with AEW touring running full capacity, mask-less shows... I assume pretty much the whole roster is vaccinated that wants to be. I'm not saying to start running live events, but like maybe less of a bubble; and recording more honorclub/live events. Just a thought.
