Could be, but I can also see the logic in not placing Cole and Page right next to each other, since they're not really on the same level or anything, so then you would have no choice but to place him on one side

I mean, it could be nothing, but it's a pretty noticeable space. I feel like that's a spot that's meant to be filled.

It's just some fan-made artwork, guys.

This is such nonsense. Everybody knows movies and TV shows are fake, yet somehow people are still able to emotionally invest in heroes and villains. The same would be true in wrestling if bookers have actual storytelling skills.

Nobody comes home from a movie and says, "I don't give a fuck what that movie was about and it made no sense, but I give it four stars because the actors were great - I just want to see good acting and actors in scenes together who haven't acted together before!"

Thanks, I'll do that. I'm sure they'll have a similar set-up as Field of Honor but I want to be sure.

What's the best way to find out as soon as they release tickets for the next Dearborn show in October? I'd like to try and get front row this time.

Get on the venue's mailing list. They'll send you an email days before the tickets go on sale and maybe even notice to an advanced presale. Otherwise checking on rohwrestling.com frequently under live events.

Not to mention how entertaining it is to see a heel do heel stuff and get booed out of the fucking building

In Chicago, it was like you described it being at Field of Honor, though I can't recall if anyone used a credit card.

So there was a ticket table and they handed you individual autograph tickets to give to the wrestlers?

ICW wrote:Hey guys,

I'm attending the War of the Worlds Terminal 5 show on Saturday and I have a question regarding the pre-show autograph signing. It seems like most people prefer to pay with cash but I'm looking to pay with a Credit Card. I see that the ROH site says they accept all major credit cards but I've been told you have to pay the wrestlers directly (with cash). Is this true? I went to Field of Honor last June and I paid at a ticket table via CC but I've asked people who attended this past WotW show and they claimed it was cash only.

Thanks!
Yes, it's cash only.

Burnside wrote: Adding Adam Page to the Bullet Club doesn't bother me either. He is very talented and was spinning his wheels and floundering as a babyface curtain-jerker. He showed during the latter portion of the Decade run that he has potential as a heel. Hopefully he's not just there to eat all the pins when the Bullet Club needs to job (but he probably is).
I'd agree with this. Page's case actually reminds me a bit of Caleb Konley during his tenure in DG USA/Evolve. Both were solid, young wrestlers when they first came in, before both were soon put into, and spent a lot of time in, lower-mid card heel groups that many people genuinely disliked (The Scene & The Decade). Once they both broke away from these groups, they spent time as faces, but really weren't going anywhere until they joined a more prominent heel group. Say what you will about The Premiere Athlete Brand, but Konley being part of that group did elevate his position on Evolve cards. I think the same thing could work here for Adam Page. Plus, like you said, I think he's better off right now as a heel (especially given his current look).

I really don´t care if Adam Page is the fall guy in the Bullet Club multi tag matches if they let him beat The Briscoes and others.

Adam Page seems like he is dangerously close to being damaged goods. His babyface run was very flimsy—as a character, as a promo, on getting reactions. It’s refreshing to see him in a clear place on the card, but he could very easily become the undercard fall guy for the American Bullet Club. Further from all that, Page might find himself as the gauche black sheep without any prior relation to Cole or the Young Bucks. The crowd could easily reject him as a legitimate member, not deigning to give him a reaction.

I would like to see Page grow, but I’m very tentative of the long-term effects of his inclusion.

Or they could taken him more serious for being around Cole & The Bucks, we will see.

Well he's gonna be squashed by Dijak in NYC. I'm more stunned by the fact that they're still promoting Coleman for some reason even though he hasn't been around since early February.
