Also a big + for the address on the box. Anyone who listens to Stone Cold's podcast will get it.

That screenshot makes Daniels look like he's in his 50s instead of his 40s.

"You don't hear so much of Claudio Castagnoli..."

Maybe not the actual name, but the person is a pretty huge deal right now, so this is a kinda awkward thing to say.

Decent enough delivery, but still not feeling his 'underdog pursuit' shtick.

He does have a point though: Claudio is not mentioned very often when people talk about the history of ROH, in comparison to guys like Dragon, Joe, McGuinness.

On topic: Well consider me crazy, but for Elgin's standards that promo was quite good. Obviously we don't know how many takes they needed to get to that result, but anyhow, surprisingly good from Elgin.

It wasn't terrible or anything. But it's not like it made me want to see him win or even see the match. I guess the idea is that I'm supposed to be on his side because he's angry. Doesn't work for me. And ridiculous camera angle.

It was a good promo for Elgin, he is improving at least.

Bad Influence promo was great, i hope they book them in a feud against The Briscoes sooner than later just for the interactions :lol: :lol:
