Random ROH Thoughts Thread

Post by Marketh. »

For shit that comes to mind that doesn't really belong anywhere.


- If Bobby Fish was on NXT, they'd turn "THIS IS MY FAVOURITE PART!" into a catchphrase and have him say it multiple times in matches. I honestly think I'd be entertained if ROH had him do this.

- Why the fuck do I never hear anyone singing "AND I'LL GIVE YOU A REASON!" during reDRagon entrances? That theme's been begging for it for years now.

-reDRagon doesn't get nearly as much reaction as they should, whether it's singing their entrance or otherwise. I think due to the fact that they've been solid tweeners for so long, the crowd is always split.

-Nigel McGuinness is chronically underutilized.

Seriously, this needs to be done at every show and assume Final Countdown like quality.

I really don't think Kevin Kelly understands what the storyline between Lethal and Briscoe is actually all about.

I just assume Kelly has been in a constant state of PTSD since Pillman's got a gun and no one has bothered to get him help for it.

They wouldn't, only because one of the stupid WWE rules is that you're not really supposed to talk like that during matches. The Dudleys used to get in trouble for that when they were there, because they would yell stuff during matches (often in a way that made sense but that usually isn't done in wrestling, like if Bubba was on the apron and Devon was in the ring and about to get hit from behind, Bubba would scream at him to look out).

I guess they waved that rule for Xavier Woods. Although he does it when he's not wrestling.

Anyone else find it quite ironic that the guy who calls himself Mr. ROH doesn't have a contract?

Does he really call himself that? I feel like Kevin Kelly mostly says it.

Yes, #Mr.ROH is in pretty much every twitter or instagram post he makes

I think people don´t give BJ Withmer enough credit as a heel, he is one of the true heels on the roster.

This is true, I really enjoy his promos and in ring heel work.

The first part of your statement is exactly what makes him a great true heel. But yes, I agree with that statement.

-I'd really like to see a high profile program with Adam Cole and Roderick Strong. Maybe with both battling to become #1 contender or something.

-I would not be averse to Elgin having a TV title reign.

Cole and Strong had a feud two years ago, so I'd hold off on that one for a little longer
