ROH Thread

Slayer wrote:But realistically, what would their chances in WWE be like?

They definitely have personas that should theoretically be perfect for WWE, but WWE has never been big on tag teams. Even in NXT, tag teams are not a priority and aren't featured well on that program at all.

I know everybody praises NXT for the workrate of the wrestlers, but honestly, the Briscoes get to have better matches in ROH and more often than they likely would in NXT.

Plus, they may not have been able to handle themselves particularly well in that corporate WWE structure.

I think they would have been fine in the WWE environment. The corporate side who knows, but overall they'd be wrestling a better style, not all out and shit but they'd be working more dates.

Basically, I think it's cool they want to be businessmen and have a chicken farm and wrestle ROH but I would have taken a chance. Isn't that what life is about? Taking chances.

Some WOTW N1 matches announced today:

THE ADDICTION VS THE KINGDOM (MICHAEL BENNETT AND MATT TAVEN W/ MARIA KANELLIS) VS THE YOUNG BUCKS

MICHAEL ELGIN VS TETSUYA NAITO

reDRagon vs HIROSHI TANAHASHI AND JUSHIN “THUNDER” LIGER

DELIRIOUS VS GEDO

RODERICK STRONG VS KUSHIDA

ROH WORLD TELEVISION CHAMPION JAY LETHAL (W/ TRUTH MARTINI) VS WATANABE

they say the final 2 matches will be announced later tonight, odd they're only doing 8 matches per show since AJ, Nak, Okada, the Briscoes and others still haven't been booked

if I had to guess what the double main for this show is, I would guess AJ/Adam Cole and The Briscoes v Okada/Nak

i really hope Gedo/Delerious is a debate on booking theory.

I just really hope I get Nakamura/O'Rielly in Toronto, it's the one match I really want to see

I mean of those announced matches it's the one I'm most interested in seeing.

Night 2 is

Adam Page v Watanabe
Elgin v Kushida
Naito v O'Reilly
Tanahashi v Strong
Okada/Gedo v Addiction
Lethal v Mark Briscoe v Liger v Nakamura
Bobby Fish v Jay Briscoe for the ROH World Title
and presumably The Bullet Club v The Kingdom in a 6 man tag

Looks good.



GET HYPE

My distant hope for MCMG reunion/faceoff remains

I never knew I wanted something so badly until they announced Nak/ACH!!!!

Night 1 in Toronto looks to be both insanely awesome and insanely weird at the same time

in the awesome category
ACH v Nak
Sabin v Kushida
Okada v Cedric
RPG Vice v reDRagon v Addiction v Decade


in the weird category
Moose/Gedo v Silas/Watanabe(how did they even come up with this one?)
Liger/Sydal v The Kingdom


Still need matches for the Bucks, AJ, Gun and Gallows, Naito and Tana for sure, assuming the Briscoes, Cole and some others will still be booked too

and ROH announced it will be in iPPV

AND THEY FUCKING RUIN IT!!!!!!

Elgin v Tanahashi????? I already had my Joe match tarnished by Elgin, now my singles Tanahashi match is too.... ugh!!!!!! Quit trying to get Elgin booked for NJPW, nobody wants him there!!!!


Okay I'm overreacting, but still....

Man and thats the night that is going to be ippv too. http://www.rohwrestling.com/news/global-wars-night-1-be-broadcast-live-ippv

dammit elgin.

So they booked too many guys for this show

Lethal v Naito announced which should be fun

But theres still 10 guys booked with 8 matches already announced

I would guess we're getting
Roddy v AJ
War Machine v Gun and Gallows
Main Event of Bucks v Briscoes?

i mean they could do a big bullet club 8/10 man tag

You were right 10 man tag with those guys is the main event

It's a fine fun match but I just don't see it as a main event level match

Oh well should still be a fun show

i mean that, ACH/Nakamura or, god help me, Tana/Elgin could all be main event matches in ROH, might as well just pick one.

why do you book the only shows i can get to on a Tuesday and Wednesday roh!

Yeah like ACH/Nakamura is worth the price alone. I'm glad the Philly shows aren't the ippvs.

Yeah Nak/ACH is well worth the price of this trip, I was just being spoiled, this show really looks great, hope Saturday is just as good

idk i think night 1 in philly looks really solid. Shinsuke/Okada vs. the briscoes, man.

Your not helping guys

Night 2 in Toronto is TV correct?

Supposedly but it does have the ippv tag on the event page so im not sure

Night 2 confirmed as a TV taping

Kushida v Ferrara
Elgin v Gedo
Liger v Castle!!!!!
Kingdom v Gun and Gallows
Naito/Tanahashi v Sydal/ACH
Roddy Strong v Nak


Can't really complain about getting two Nakamura singles matches, and Liger v Castle is fascinating to me


They're announcing one more match, I would guess it's going to be some six man awesomeness like AJ/Bucks v Okada/RPG Vice to help build up the Osaka ppv for the American audience

Yeah Liger/Castle should be a lot of fun.

Liger/Castle will be MOTYC.

Also love Elgin/Gedo, the whole match Elgin is gonna be like BOOOK MEEEEE
