I guess if you wanna go on the cheap, get that one. But, the sleeves are missing the Bullet Club logo.

Chrome should translate a lot of it for you, if that's an option for you.

The official Bullet Club tees are out of stock on the NJPW shop site. Yes, the Redbubble shirts are bootlegs. As mentioned previously, the side logo on the arm is missing. The lionmark NJPW logo is also missing from the back.

I'm sure they'll restock eventually.

there were so many fake bullet club shirts and some of the idiots actually went in the autogrph line. I get you are showing you're a fan, but you are admitting you bootlegged their shit

It's not a big deal. It's kinda hard to get an original Bullet Club tee. NJPW doesn't ship to the US. So the bootleg Bullet Clubs are pretty common place at wrestling shows now.

You have to use either Tenso or another type of "address" service when ordering from the NJPW shop. It's kind of a hassle to be honest and can be expensive.

If the show was a sell out and they sold the upper balconies, 2,600 or thereabouts.

It looked like the upper balconies were full on IPPV that is great for ROH

Just finished watching the show, and another GREAT show by ROH.

And the ending was awesome! Bad Influence! And for anyone wondering, Kazarian was wearing his "Kazamania" shirt, not sure if people knew or not.

I'm seeing some websites break the whole, "ROH has taken TNA's BaseBrawl event's spot this year" news and some TNA fans reactions are priceless. First Bad Influence join ROH, now this.

The MCU Park is a pretty good spot because it's in Coney Island and there will be a lot of tourists and casual fans who would give the show a shot just because it's something else to do in a place full of attractions.

It's a nice stadium, but having been to the first basebrawl event TNA did in 09', there were some drawbacks to having this event on a baseball field.

I really enjoy the intimacy that a venue like the Grand Ballroom or Hammerstein Ballroom provide, and that is definitely taken away. The ring was set up at home plate, with the first row for seating being set up right in front of where the baseball seating starts. To sum it up, even front row is a bit far away, let alone sitting in the seating above.

ROH will have a chance to draw more fans than they've ever drawn before, but I just don't want it to take away from the actually wrestling show and experience, the way the TNA shows felt there.

Don't get me wrong. I rather watch wrestling, bands, etc in a smaller venue as well, but I meant it's a good spot in terms of drawing power. A big show on a summer night in Coney Island can do very well if marketed right.

The baseball set up is kind of old school too. Reminds me of the WWF in Shea Stadium or the big WWC shows in Puerto Rico.

^ For sure. Plus, there will be fireworks that night, as is the case every Friday Night at Coney Island, so drawing power should be huge. Added note: If they do an autograph signing, it'll definitely be a bit more organized as they have a good amount of space to work with.

Has anyone received the access codes for the VOD's on rohwrestling.com??? The shows are now available on the ROH Website to buy, but I haven't received any response regarding the access code.

When I messaged ROH on twitter they said that they're going to send the codes when they get most of peoples receipts.

The First ROH show I've seen since Final Battle 2012.

***1/2 Lethal/KUSHIDA
Really fun match, Kushida was a crazy man in this match.

***3/4 Steen/Nakamura
Extremely good match, Steen against a top level opponent never disappoints.

**** Bucks/ReDragon
Great match, some awesome nearfalls in this one.

***1/4 Cole/Liger
A nice change of pace, finish was a little out of nowhere but always cool to see Liger.

***1/2 Styles/Elgin/Okada
The predictable result hurt the match a little, but still extremely good. Awesome to see Okada in an ROH ring.

All the other matches were decent too. This was an excellent show, really looking forward for the PPV debut next month.

Thought War of the Worlds was really good, not best show I saw but very enjoyable. I liked it so much, I'll happily give ROH some of my money again.

If you haven't see the preshow, it is avalable on the ROHFree UStream channel.
You will notice they spoiled the 3-way main event.
That was another fantastic show !
All matches were good to really great. Special mention to Kushida - Lethal, it was way better than i expected, and to all the clean finish, an excellent point when you think about all the guys who was able to interfere.
I'm surprised there are not more talking about Bennett considering he did absolutely nothing in his match.
DOC/Anderson vs The Briscoes was disappointing. I expected something more...
Good job on commentary i think, Nigel really add something when he join the team. I was expecting Veda the first half but that didn't happen, unfortunately.
The crowd noise didn't translate well on iPPV. I saw some fan videos and that was totally different.
