Re: Should I Sell My ROH Collection...

Montana says it well, (more succinctly than me as well). Just re-read your original post and saw you had in fact only just STARTED watching 2006 (as well as not having watched 2007 and 2008). There were 42 dvds in 2006 with another 40 in both 2007 and 2008. This was ROH's most prolific time and whil...

Re: Second To None 04/19/14 TV Taping Results

Just found out from our correspondent that these are TV Tapings so putting the results here. Thanks CGstong for doing this. Before in the other thread you stated that you thought this show was a Road Rage type show that would be shown on TV, as opposed to an actual TV Taping. Does your above commen...

Re: Official Second To None (Baltimore 4/19) Thread

I think I'll be setting up the Pick 'Ems for this show. Even though their are still a few people who have yet to have announced matches, the fact that it's a named Taping makes me think that it will be treated much like Wrestling's Finest , where the whole show (or most of it) will be shown on TV, ...

Re: Should I Sell My ROH Collection...

I think you would be making a huge huge mistake. I know how difficult it is to amass such a collection. I have a complete set of shows from 2004 onwards and a number of shows from 2002 and 2003. I also have all the FIP shows, all PWG shows and all Shimmer shows. I doubt I will get the chance to watc...

Re: Tuesday Rollout

I am also UK based and got stung with customs charges recently for the first time. I emailed ROH about this yesterday though and received the politest of replies. They explained that the people who had taken over merchandising had been unaware of the previous practice of putting the value of the dvd...

Re: Tuesday Rollout

3. Why the hell does Tyler's new set have the Tag Wars and HDNet Davey matches? They were the same bloody match! Well they were similar but were not the same, and I think it's actually great that their 2010 trilogy is available all in one place. In fact I think this is one of the most solid sets RO...

Re: DGUSA/EVOLVE Thread

I wonder if DG and Sal have ever considered using SMV as a DVD-R distributor? This was mentioned on Page 22 of this thread. This was the response. any thoughts on letting smart mark put the shows out to get you guys up to speed? May cost some money but in the long run will gain you guys some breath...

Re: There Needs To Be A Change In Battleground..

I agree with the black ropes, but nothing else. It's a part of the ROH look, it's what makes it different, the ropes don't match the color scheme but the rest is fine. Eh, to me the "ROH look" that made it stand out from everyone else was the designed ring. Not really digging the plain ri...

Re: Mike Adamle reviews Ring Of Honor

Sorry I haven't been posting many of these. I picked up a new job so time has been limited and I just had to put my dog down because she was sick so I haven't been in the mood. I loved that dog more than any of my friends. . Am very sorry to hear that. That's really rough. One of my friends has a d...

Re: Review for Death Before Dishonor VII Night 1

I really did love this show. It was so solid from beginning to end. The 8 man elimination match was a ton of fun. It had the feel of an old school WWE Survivor Series match from the late 80's, and I always loved those matches. I would actually give the show **** just for its sheer consistency. I rem...

Re: Fantasy DVD concept - Aries vs. Danielson

76 minutes is a HUGE chunk of time to take up on discs that are 3-3.5 hrs in length. That's true, but they managed to fit in the 60 minute Danielson/Mcguinness match on the Danielson vs Mcguinness rivalry dvd so I reckon that you could probably get all the Danielson/Aries matches on two dvds, or at...

Re: Fantasy DVD concept - Aries vs. Danielson

I have all these matches from the original dvds but I would buy this dvd in a heartbeat. Then again, I buy all ROH dvds but the Aries/Danielson matches were really special. I would rate this series even more highly than the matches Danielson had with Mcguinness. You missed out one of the HDNet match...

By the way, just wanted to give a quick THANK YOU to the people who support me and this rating system, and to the ones who don't support it but show support for someone doing his own thing. Also a major THANK YOU to the few who stuck up for me in this thread, much appreciated and if there's ever a ...

Re: Mike Adamle reviews Ring Of Honor

I'm not the one starting the argument. I had a blast watching the match, I'm sorry you didn't. I didn't need a story or storyline to enjoy the risks these guys took in this match. I've never seen most of these moves even attempted again, yet they executed most of them perfectly. In fairness Mike ha...

Re: CHIKARA thread.

It's a real shame. I was not the biggest Chikara fan. (ROH and PWG are my personal faves) but they truly offered something different and unique. There will be a lot of unhappy fans out there. I did always buy their big tournament shows and the Cibernetico's and I will miss them. They were also the f...

Re: Mike Adamle reviews Ring Of Honor

I'll say this for Mike. His enthusiasm for ROH is unquestionable. I think there should maybe be a little more tolerance on these boards. Don't smash the guys enthusiasm just because he has a somewhat unorthodox rating system. One thing his reviews have done is to make me want to check out the main e...

Re: DGUSA/EVOLVE Thread

Gabe, Do the Evolve DVDs sell well enough versus the DGUSA DVDs to justify releasing everything chronologically? I mean, counting the pre-order, there are now only 3 unreleased EVOLVE shows and 10 unreleased DGUSA shows. I know when you were running ROH, there was a precedent on staying up to date ...

Re: What things are ROH doing wrong at the moment?

one of the very few issues I have with the current shows is the time allocated to certain matches on iPPV. I don't get why matches I don't care much about (and based on the crowd reactions I'm not alone) such as Whitmer/Titus (12 min), Strong/Bennett (13 min), Taven/Briscoe (14 min), get sooo much ...

Re: DGUSA/EVOLVE Thread

It takes too long to get the DVDs out, so I don't bother following it. Just not a vod guy I understand. Hopefully you'll get back into DGUSA/EVOLVE when we start consistently getting the DVDs out. I realize we have to prove to you and others that we will do this consistently and more timely. I real...
