Agreed. KUSHIDA always seems like he's having a good time when he's over in the states. He definitely deserves a fun title run.

I've enjoyed KUSHIDA's run so far as well, and in some ways, it has the exact opposite feeling of Scurrl's reign to me. In Scurrl's reign, I felt like there was no chance he was losing to those who he was defending against (including KUSHIDA, so nice job on the surprise there ROH). In KUSHIDA's run, because he's full time with NJPW, I feel like he may lose every time he defends it. I was actually pretty sure White would take it off of him, but alas, he is still the champ. Now, having said that, I don't see Kenny King winning it...however, it could be a hell of a way to start off King's new solo run with the Revolution having run it's course, so I could certainly be wrong (again).

I'd be fine with this so long as he's around consistently. As things currently stand, I see him losing the belt to a Brit on the UK Tour, but if he's going to be around and on TV enough, I'd have no problem with him holding it until the September PPV or even the Global Wars 2017 tour.

Ugh. Not to date myself, but the Embassy is kind of like the wrestling version of that NBC show Heroes. They both tried so long to recapture that original magic to such boring, stupid results.

I guess we officially know that Nana never tried to strongarm his way to the book.

I could care less if Erick Stevens ever shows up again. The guy is as fucking boring as plain white rice from you get from Chinese takeout.

Jay Lethal (along with Ricochet) both qualified for WhatCulture Pro Wrestling's Pro Wrestling World Cup.

Anyone know when that begins? Is there a date set?

I always liked Stevens. He worked hard and had great matches, and his size made his matches feel a little different from most others we were getting in ROH at the time.

Please tell me he's just trying to run his own angle and that this isn't actually happening.

Hopefully this is for just a DVD compilation or something.

Either one of these outcomes would qualify as trolling at this point. Another Embassy run with nobodies is like booking Bull James or Cliff Compton.

But think of the heat that The Rebellion will get once they become rebadged as The Embassy.

Oh. The Embassy is coming back for the twelfth time. Exciting.

Prince Nana is neutered in the SBG era. Unless he can reclaim the freedom he used to have with Jimmy Rave and have nuclear heat... I'm not interested.
