This is exactly what I've been saying for months. You're not starting to lose it. You're finally starting to get it.187_Joeism wrote:Maybe I'm starting to lose it but i agree with BRM in both points if that's your problem with ROH i can't see way they can't do that. I prefer the point 1 over the 2 as a way to use the house shows but i don't agree that the house shows itself should have any importance other than follow the TV/PPV.
The shows name i can't honestly care less, i watch wrestling for the matches, if a show has a good card i will buy it. Having their own name or being a Road to show means nothing to me, maybe is because i watch New Japan and they do it that way too.
As for the Road to... names, in New Japan, if they are doing Shibata vs. Tanahashi at the PPV, they have them in the same match on ever show and do some stuff together. In ROH it often feels like the matches have very little connection to the PPV. It's just matches for the sake of matches. Also, if they were all "Road to" shows I wouldn't be happy about the new naming convention but I could accept it. Most of the tour names ROH uses bother me because they make no sense and because, the timing of them makes no sense (why do some of them stretch around the PPVs while the others don't? Would it make things a lot easier to keep track of if they just ran from one big event until the next?)
