What if steen loses the title at bitw?

Post by Renegade121 »

If you read the spoilers it sort of seems like the odds are stacked against him with the stips involved

Well I have not read the spoilers but this thought has crossed my mind and it scares the shit out of me. It would be an absolute slap in the face to Steen so lets hope they are smarter than that.

I'd be displeased if only because I hate the idea of the ROH title being a hot potato. That said, don't forget about Steve Austin vs. Dude Love at Over the Edge '98.

I'm going to move this to the spoiler board, as to discuss this we really need to mention what happens on the TV show...
Yea this thought crossed my mind earlier today. The fact that it's no DQ and Davey's only shot, makes me worried they're gonna give Davey the belt again :|

I don't think that would go over too well with the New York crowd.

I don't think it would have the same long term effect as Danielson/Sheamus at WM. I think after the GFL stuff, the Border Wars stream and this, they would be in serious danger of losing a lot of fans.

It's not worth it, Steen's already a massively over face. It doesn't need to be hammered home with a screwjob.

LOL. If they did that R.I.P. ROH. Steen needs to be champ at least until Final Battle.

The stipulation is only for make the match more unpredictable, in a normal rematch is so obvious the Richards have no choice.

never gonna happen, you all know how wrestling works: huge odds stacked against Steen----> he retains 100%

The match was made no DQ right?

And Steen is allowed his piledriver?

We have to wait until they aired that Steen promo but it seems that way.

I'd like to see Steen lose just for the reaction of the crowd to it. They would probably shit all over it. But knowing ROH the stream would be down and only the live crowd would see it. It would be great if ROH could get on regular ppv in a live format. With them being owned by a tv company it seems like that should, at the least, be a possibility.

Would be stupid and only done to hot potato the belt.. it's not like Davey needs to drop the belt to someone.. he's basically faced everyone for it..
