What everyone's been waiting for - YOUNG/FERRARA III

[Marketh.]

Don't ever get injured on Delirious' watch. This is what you come back to.

I actually enjoy Ferrara, he seems like a genuinely nice guy and his story about how he's in ROH is awesome.

But they've had this problem ever since Gabe...they book nearly ALL of their students as underdogs, or as a heel. And it just never seems to work.

The ONLY person to really get over was Rhett Titus. But that was because he had an (at the time) absurd, yet awesome, gimmick. Really, they need to give Ferrara some kind of character, and if it takes off, great, but if it doesn't, then that's no good.

[Burnside]

I think Ferrara should work under a mask if possible.

[Marketh.]

I think Ferrara should change his facial hair and gear, or just hope Aries doesn't see him.

He was originally 'The Hype' in Team Benchmark, but that fell apart before it began and they started just throwing him in there to get him some work. He does need to team up or at least align himself with someone as he's just there. Hell, I'd rather see him with the HoT than Diesel any day.

As to the students, it doesn't seem to work because, like most wrestling students, they aren't very good. This is why they never went on to work anywhere else, either. No demand. Hagadorn became a manager for a while, but that was pretty much it. And even Titus didn't work a ton outside of ROH. He was a PWX guy for a while, but not much else.

The Bravados were great too once they developed that "Grandma's Boys" gimmick. Then they went to Japan and suddenly ROH decided to turn them serious again, based on them being slightly less green than when they left. What a waste.

[TYFDK]

I forgot about the Bravados! Very entertaining, and pretty fresh heels, too. Like if 80s Jim Cornette were a tag team.

Eh. They still wrestle and aren't over anywhere. Gabe even tried pushing them over the Young Bucks in DGUSA/Evolve, and we were treated to some of the most 'meh' worthy tag matches in the promotion's history. If ROH wasted them, so has everyone else.

Just about the greatest thing I've ever seen.

TICKET UPDATE

4th row has sold out.
5th row has 8 tickets left to be sold.
GA has 456 left.

I really, really need to get a life.

how do u find out how many tickets are left for a event?

[trufreedom]

Very slowly.

[TYFDK]

Well it's even easier now than it used to be.

Go to any show's ticket page, and the new way of ordering should be on there. They let you pick your own seats and everything now. Hit the "Select Seats" button on the right side of the page, and then it'll allow you to pick your destination of sitting. The red circles are ones that have not been bought yet. Then count all the red ones together, and there's your answer.

I gotta give it to Ferrara, too. When they announced the match, I wasn't very excited...but one of my favorite things in wrestling is when guys do impersonations of others (I was there live for when Maria and Michael Bennett impersonated the Briscoes...that ruled) and his impression of Silas is spot on, to boot. No doubt Silas is gonna kick Will's ass, and it should be fun.

[Marketh.]

In Silas' first match back when he faced Ferrara, what annoyed me about the match was that Ferrara essentially dominated the whole thing. So sadly I don't think this match will be Silas kicking the shit out of him, as much as I'd like to see that.

Such a shame. He was getting a nice push last year.

[AssShooter]

One match is still missing, right ?
It's time to add Aries.

How about Bucks vs Sydal & Aries?
