I figured he'd get a quick rematch

A year ago I would have agreed with you, but I found their match at Masters of the Craft last year to be disappointing. Hopefully this next match will live up to- or, hell, I'd take even approach- the standard that their first two matches set?
Plus, they are finally using better and bigger images with a better resolution.The Dragon Saga wrote: ↑Thu Feb 22, 2018 12:18 pm Small tidbit, but the match graphics both here and on TV look a lot better.
Ehhhh I guess a fair trade since the match quality is decreasing.The Dragon Saga wrote: ↑Thu Feb 22, 2018 12:18 pm Small tidbit, but the match graphics both here and on TV look a lot better.
If anyone is going to drag a good match out of the MCMG'S at this point it's The Briscoes. Sabin and Shelley have had a lackluster title reign thus far. Their matches have been uninspiring. Is it the tag team division overall? I don't know. I figured Delirious would jump at the chance to showcase Best Friends (a face team that could really get over), but he just has them losing. I can't believe it but a run with The Briscoes as champs might be the only saving grace for the tag team division right now.maxx_powerz wrote: ↑Thu Feb 22, 2018 4:26 pm I think the card is okay. I think it will be one of those shows with six or seven "good" 12-14 minute matches with nothing standing out unless Sabin, Shelley & the Briscoes really turn back the clock and go crazy.
Yeah, their match on TV sucked. Cody sold too long for Taven, which is not the way to have a good match with him.King of Indy Style wrote: ↑Thu Feb 22, 2018 1:17 pm Unless that Cody/Taven match is No-DQ that match is going to blow so hard.
Agreed. Personally I'd have had Best Friends win the belts at Final Battle because, quite honestly, the Best Friends are much, much better than the Guns right now in terms of match quality, and they're really, really over. Moreso than the Guns right now. The Briscoes pummeling the shit out of Chuck and Trent for the belts would have made them bigger heels than beating the Guns.

I totally agree, man. What an effective segment that would be. The Briscoes are more than capable of getting that kind of heat. It would certainly be more interesting than anything going on in the tag team division right now.King of Indy Style wrote: ↑Thu Feb 22, 2018 6:05 pmAgreed.

I watch the TV show and generally like it. I'm talking about the long term booking of the tag team division not just the PPV build. I'm curious what you think is being done right with the booking of the tag team division.The Dragon Saga wrote: ↑Sun Feb 25, 2018 6:54 pm I really don't agree. The build-up to all of these matches, if you watch TV, make sense. I don't understand what people want out of these matches, everything announced with, what? Three weekends worth of TV left, make sense by story. ROH has done a lot worse.
