Throughout ROH's rich history, the company has prided itself at various times by mixing talents with the hottest federations around the globe. For 14 years, this has allowed ROH to have the bragging rights time and again at hosting the best wrestling in the world, with one blow-away match after another, dazzling ROH fans in the process and elevating those both on the ROH roster and their "visiting" opponents. In addition, these relationships have allowed ROH to branch out into international territories, including Canada, England, and Japan.
For a dozen years, Roderick Strong defined and embodied what ROH is all about, eventually earning the nickname of "Mr. ROH" and serving as the company's gatekeeper. With that much time spent in the company, there was nobody that benefitted more from the opportunities of wrestling the many, many international talents that came through ROH, some as regulars, some as special attractions. No matter the opponent's cultural background or wrestling style, Strong strived to get the best out of his opponents, cementing himself as one of the top grapplers on the planet.
ROH proudly presents this 3-disc compilation featuring Strong's greatest matches against such international talents. With 25 complete matches, the opponents on this collection bring a breathtaking amount of star power from the UK, Canada, Mexico, Dragon Gate, Pro Wrestling NOAH, and of course New Japan. Classic matches against Kevin Steen, El Generico, KENTA, PAC, Shinsuke Nakamura, Alberto el Patron, Hiroshi Tanahashi, Kazuchika Okada, Michael Elgin, Kyle O'Reilly, Kenny Omega, and Nigel McGuinness are just a portion of the names found on this compilation competing against a man that was very much the backbone of ROH during his time in the company. This is truly a must-buy for all fans of professional wrestling, as this brings something for everyone!

Re: Fantasy DVD concept - Strong vs. The World
Instead of including the horrid Strong-Steen Take No Prisoners match why wouldn't you put on their World Title match at Live Strong? And instead of two Kenny Omega matches why not take the worst one off and replace it with Roderick Strong vs. Kensuke Sasaki from The Tokyo Summit?

Would rather they just do a volume 3, cataloging his last few years.
I like DVD continuity. And these themed comps murder it dead.

I'm gonna be at the top of the mountain in three years, with or without this belt. I'm gonna be the best that ever lived. And what you don't understand is, even if I don't get that far, at least I had the courage to get off my ass and try.
