Dallas looks in rough shape, and San Antonio isn't much better. It's tough... ROH booked like 7 shows over like 14-16 days. They can barely market their next show, let alone 3 different weekend tours.
Probably not a smart response. Tossing out insults is not cool.monster mafia wrote: ↑Fri Oct 25, 2019 12:04 pmYou are such a dumbbass..
He called me a “dumbbass” in the other thread too. Then edited it out from his post. He’s on one today.AnHonorableMention wrote: ↑Fri Oct 25, 2019 3:41 pmProbably not a smart response. Tossing out insults is not cool.

At least Myles/ACH had the forethought to quickly delete his comments about Lethal, but yeah they were real gross while he knows people are especially reading into his posts. Despite how ROH consistently push some key Black talent, it doesn't mean that the workplace acted appropriately with other Black members on the roster. You would hear a lot of stories about ACH's behavior (to paraphrase: "immaturity," "hyperactivity") when he started really getting known, and it's tough to know if that kind of perception would have stuck if he were white. People like Darby, Janela, and Riddle are all outspoken and have different personalities than you would expect from wrestlers working in major promotions. No one ever talks about them as "bad fits" or unprofessional. Even the usually very sober Kevin Steen talked about him like he was a brat, so I imagine his general reputation wasn't that hot, which sucks to think about. Also, it feels foolish to tease out a deleted tweet, but maybe Myles/ACH never accepted that Lethal played the company role man because of the baggage he might associate with that, or maybe they have bad histories.Montana wrote: ↑Mon Oct 28, 2019 12:08 pm Interesting comments by ACH. Never heard anyone complain that there was only one "TOP" African American in a company. First off the irony that making the comment, when there is one at the top. Secondly, it's not like ANYONE at the time was saying Cedric/ACH or anyone else on the roster at that point was better than Jay Lethal. Jay Lethal, was ALL AROUND better than ACH/Cedric/most anyone on the roster at the time. I literally can't think of one area of being a pro wrestler, that ACH was better than Jay Lethal at. I really don't care about his issues with WWE/t-shirts... but he should really think about what he says, and realize his opinion, is just his, and not the consensus.
Do they give Black talent belts at higher percentage rates than other promotions? Yes. But I don't think they've done a good job of pushing anyone put Lethal. King has flip-flopped way too many times, and Taylor has been a singles wrestler for three years now and still has no real character and confusing storylines, ACH and Lio Rush, never got anything storyline-wise or character-wise, Cedric's angles were all bad after the Roddy feud ended. Moose never really went anywhere, either.
https://www.pwinsider.com/article/13084 ... e.html?p=1After breaking his arm yesterday in Great Britain, Jay Lethal was placed in a soft cast and had to delay his flight back home to the United States until he was medically cleared to fly. We are told he was cleared to fly earlier today and will be flying home sometime soon.
Once he returns to the United States, Lethal will be meeting with an orthopedist to set the bone and get him on the road to recovery.
Internally, the hope is Lethal will be able to return for the 12/13 Final Battle PPV, but that is not set in stone.
