;) Duly noted Stuttsy But seriously some great talent coming out of that area. I also suggest keeping an eye on CWF and PWX.

Couple of things happened in that 2nd episode. SO HAPPY that Everett won & The Romantic Touch lost. Also I think this pretty much confirms Whitmer's back as a full time wrestler. Mark Briscoe & Adam Page teaming is....interesting. Seems like we're gonna get Ciampa/Lethal/Taven at some point. That should be good.

Elgin just brutalized RD Evans. Considering he went after Kongo and then Evans, I think it's safe to say that he's still a face. The WWE did something similar with Kane and The Undertaker after McMahon called them "two putrid pussies" back in the day. They would come out at random and choke slam people. I kind of like this idea.

Speaking of which, technically Evans beat Elgin by DQ according to the results, and according to him & Veda Scott, he is now "15-0". I wonder where they're going with this whole undefeated streak story.

Big News: Best in the World 2014 will take place June 21st in Nashville. They must have been really happy with the attendance to announce a big show for Nashville.

I heard somewhere that they couldn't afford to bring in Hardy for the tapings because Styles & Piper have high booking fees.

ROH's treatment of C&C baffles me. These guys are basically the Eliminators for ROH.

I think that they should just start a stable with Coleman, Alexander, ACH, and Thomas called "4 Black Guys with Nothing to Do". Then Jay Lethal can mentor them. It would be great.

AJ Styles def Roderick Strong
Match was said to be good but had a few rough points
AJ slipped off the top and seemed to have hurt his knee. Then Roddys head got trapped on the styles clash and looked bad. Scary moment.

Haha, that's funny, but it also sucks. I wouldn't be surprised if ACH or Cedric test the waters of the WWN universe when their contracts expire.

I don't get The Eliminators refrence by the way (I'm assuming they jobbed to everybody?)

No... The Eliminators were one of the most impressive teams in the early days of ECW. In fact, when ECW invaded Raw for the first time Paul Heyman came out with the Eliminators who delivered "Total Elimination" to a ring announcer.

I think C&C COULD have been a draw if they were used the right way. Even it's common knowledge that wrestling is scripted, nobody wants to root for a team that loses almost every match they wrestle. If C&C had a fair run with the belts, it would have made the tag division even more exciting than it was in my opinion.

Place your bets guys Rowe or Hanson who faces the Sicilian Psychopath in Phiily for the TV title? though to be fair I'm surprised that RT didn't win I mean we all know it's Rhett Titus under that mask and it would have made sense for him to be the tourney winner I mean he wins the final match pulls the mask off his face and reveals that he duped ROH management and then he beats Tomasso at 12th anniversary to become the new ROH World TV champ but with these guys to me your just giving the psycho cannon fodder

But then again, Rhett Titus is the drizzling shits and shouldn't be anywhere near a singles title belt.

The fuck was Roddy thinking? You literally don't do ANYTHING to take the Styles Clash.
