Random ROH Thoughts Thread

[Sandy Fork]

Juniors won't be working the G1, at least not IN the G1 itself. It's a heavyweight tournament for a reason. NJPW will bring in more quests, NWA guys, NOAH guys etc.

[187_Joeism]

I explain myself wrong, i meant i don´t know if they are not going to use the juniors in the cards (I guess they are going to have a few G1 matches in the card and fill the rest with tag matches.)

[Robareid]

I'm expecting them to expand the field to two thirteen men blocks personally. That'll give them eight/nine G1 matches for the 18 non-final nights, with each guy working twelve times.

I hope Roddy competes in the G1 tourney.

[AndyDiaz]

Ethan Page, Josh Alexander, JT Dunn, David Starr, Chris Dickinson, Trevor Lee and Biff Busick, should've been in ROH a long time ago..

[JTGrasby]

So ... that whole RD Evans undefeated streak was kinda useless in retrospect.

Exclude Trevor Lee, he's a terrible spotmonkey. I agree about the rest of the names you mentioned.

[Burnside]

I hope Roddy competes in the G1 tourney.

I kinda hope he doesn't, as the schedule is insane and I'd rather he not get injured.

It was fun while it lasted. Sometimes the only reason doing something needs is that it was fun. Made RD Evans from himself being useless to having an iota of importance.

[WHG]

The RD Evans thing ended exactly as it should have...with him not being in an ROH ring. I enjoyed the first part of the New Streak thing, really until they recruited Moose. Sure the payoff to the whole thing was terrible, but really the worst outcome would have been if there WAS something next for him (not saying Evans isn't talented, but barring an outside of the ring role he just doesn't fit).

I'm far more concerned about where Cheeseburger and Bob Evans are going. I know everybody likes Cheeseburger and he seems like a genuinely nice guy, but the thought of him & Evans being on next week's Destination America show makes me cringe.

Don't know if anyone else caught this yet, but Silas Young is now on Twitter (for real this time) at @lastrealmanROH

Figured out last week I couldn't insult all you nerds if I wasn't on twitter to call you all TWATS. Can't wait to offend your soft asses

[AlexROH]

I loved the New Streak stuff, kinda funny. RD vs Lethal was a great match, his match with Moose at FB......

[Leo C]

The New Streak was very entertaining for me. The match with Lethal was very fun, I felt heartbroken myself. I remember when RD faced Romantic Touch and RT I guess raped Veda under the ring. Good times.

[trufreedom]

When all the women want you, like Romantic Touch, it's impossible to rape any of them.

... Unless they're unconscious. I'm looking too far into this.

[Leo C]

Very good point. Even if they are unconscious, they're probably dreaming about a night with the Romantic Touch anyway so really he's just making their dream come true while they're still dreaming it.

This will probably be the weirdest thing I've ever posted on here, so here it goes...

I've been to a number wrestling shows (WWE & ROH), but War of the Worlds 2015: Night 2 was by far the closest I've ever sat at a wrestling show (2nd row ringside).

One thing I immediately noticed throughout out the show was how hairy some of the wrestlers were (talking chest hair & leg hair). I've never really noticed it before, because on TV most of the wrestlers look clean, but it was really striking to me how much hair some of these wrestlers have. Has anyone else ever noticed this?

Ok, that weird post is over.

BJ Whitmer's leg hair. D:<

[dhads7161]

What is the deal with ROH using differnt style of ring in some places? The rings used in San Antonio and Dearborn are differnt tha the regular ring they use for TV most of the time.

[TYFDK]

Borrow them from local promotions actually.

[WHG]

Speaking of rings, their primary ring is in pretty sad shape. The posts specifically are almost distracting in person they're so beaten up and it sags pretty noticeably.

What was the story on what happened the 20ft ring with the silver posts and red ropes they were using in the Cornette era? I remember Cornette saying that Danny Davis in Louisville built it for them...but they suddenly stopped using it in 2013 and I don't remember if that was ever explained.
