[burrhead]

Thanks! Was hoping someone would. I'll forget them by the time it all airs so it doesn't bother me to read them. I'm really looking forward to how they kick the new year off.

[DXvsNWO1994]

Really excited to hear how Hero/Steen and Styles/Strong turn out! I know they've happened in ROH before, but it's been several years and a lot has changed since those matches.

Elgin cut a promo about new contenders for the ROH title including Styles, Hero, and Briscoe. Chris Hero came out to interrupt along with Kevin Steen. Steen says to Hero, “After tonight your just going to say, he just kicked my ass…..OHNO”. Promo ends.

Sorry for the edit, it was Caprice Coleman who was defeated by Jay Lethal

[SteenMark23]

Awesome to see Trevor Lee work a dark match. He's only 20 years old, and a lot of people I know are very high on him.

[fm20000]

This looks horrible

[KenSmellsGood]

I'm glad that Steen went over on Hero. Steen has been losing way too much.

It looks like he'll be feuding with Cliff Compton. Hopefully this is not a continuation of the Michael Bennet angle. Perhaps they'll form a tag team and Cliff will now be known as the new and improved, Clifford Compton.

[JustSkiff]

This looks horrible

Clearly it's an intermission photo.

[Tim]

So... Elgin's heel?

Clearly it's an intermission photo.

Actually I saw that photo posted before the show even started, so not everyone would've been there yet.

Awesome to see Trevor Lee work a dark match. He's only 20 years old, and a lot of people I know are very high on him.

I've only seen him once so I can't really speak to how good he is, but I'm really happy he got the dark match.

Is it just me or does it seem like a lot of good talent is coming out of the south these days? Cedric Alexander, Andrew Everett, Kaleb Connely, Corey Hollis, Trevor Lee.

[Marketh.]

So... Elgin's heel?

What's suggesting this?

[187_Joeism]

Yes, most of the people from PWX are now on ROH or DGUSA

[KenSmellsGood]

I think it may be the beginning of an Elgin heel turn, but I don't think it's a good idea. Cole is a heel and he has the belt, so I'd think that Elgin would remain face until he finally takes it from Cole. At this point they may just be trying to make him look more aggressive.

[Stuttsy]

Not to nitpick but Everett and Trevor Lee came from CWF Mid-Atlantic.

[Tim]

So... Elgin's heel?

What's suggesting this?

I was thinking he may have because he attacked Kongo.

[DXvsNWO1994]

I actually really like the look of the venue. The floor fills out nicely and it looks like that 2nd floor balcony is filled out as well. Would not mind ROH coming back here in the future.
