  1. I haven't really been watching this show latley but caught up with the last 2 weeks. Good to see Breeze on the show. He had a good match with Garza on this week's episode. Of course the boring Nese, Davari and Kendrick are still around. But Oney returned this week so there is hope.

  2. I went to the Evolve show tonight in Orlando. Haven't watched Evolve in a while but it really has turned into WWE developmental. Down to NXT guys signing autographs before the show, playing NXT theme music during intermission and 75% of the matches involving WWE contracted talent. I did enjoy the show though. Mansoor/AR Foxx being the best match and really the only match the crowd was into. I liked Eddie Kingston vs Anthony Gutierez because it was basically Kingston destroying a young guy. Reminded me of the Donst match from Chikara. Main event was Josh Briggs vs Dexter Lumis. Wasn't bad but Briggs isn't a good babyface.

  3. It's going to be hard to top Necro/Shlak for worst match of the year. Necro looked like Dynamite Kid in that 1996 Michinoku pro match. It was sad seeing him bump in half speed and Shlak is awful. The crowd sounded stunned when they saw Necro at first. Rest of the show was a mixed bag. Maff/Mancer was a perfect sendoff for Maff and Deppen/Killer kross ruled. Main event was weird as Ki gave that poor guy nothing who flew all the way from japan. The Warriors way finish at the end was brutal.

  4. I just want a Reggie B Fine cameo with Private Party. And Dave Brown to replace JR on commentary for the night.

    Fun show tonight. Cody/Darby was about the best outcome they could do. Arn was great in his role. I think he should join up with the Hangman when he turns on Cody. Might be able to save the character.

    Women's match was good too. Britt has potential as a heel. Nyla was the dominate monster she should be and Riho/Shida were good as the go go babyfaces. Hope Kris wins next week but I doubt it if she's not signed full time.

    Best thing about the main was the Bucks basically yelling at Fenix and Pentagon to get in their corner and follow the tag rules. It was really noticeable.

  5. God I loved that wedding. It was bad then turned weird then ended great. The most WWE thing I've seen this year. Lana making out with Lashley and his makeup smearing all on her face was the highlight. Lashley suit was on point.

    Liked the Alister/buddy match and Joe kicking ass. Looking forward to next week's Raw.

  6. Thorne/Maluta didn't air but Bronson Reed vs Dijakovic did.

    Fun show overall. Roddy/Theory is worth going out of you way to see. Hell of a performance in his debut by Austin Theory. Rodrick continues to show why he's one of the best in the world. I also like Shotzi's debut. Main event was fun with Nese kicking Tom Phillips in the face and Santa Keith Lee.

    This week's ROH TV is a Best of and the Main Event is RUSH/Dragon Lee vs. The Briscoes so make sure you watch this week's because that might be the ROH MOTY or at least in the Top 3. 

    Yeah this match ruled. Haven't seen Rush that motivated in a while. My favorite thing was Mark Briscoe getting busted open and his whole face getting pixelated by the censors.

  8. I sorta respect the Elite for being so gung ho with the Dark Order push. Sure the fans won't like it but you gotta stick to your convictions sometimes. I'm guessing this is leading to Page being in the group which is alright.

    Jericho/Jungle Boy was awesome. Jericho played his role great and Jungle boy has potential. I think he needs to get away from Stunt and Luchasaurus tho to really get on the next level.

    The tag matches were good in ring but man I don't care about any of those guys to get emotionally invested in it. I think that's the side effect of watching so much wrestling during the week. Just get desensitized with these matches.

  9. When did ROH go from airing multiple matches on tv to only airing one or two in full along with highlights of others? I remember back in the Destination America days they aired more.

    I thought this week's episode was good with Black/Bateman and Shane Taylor's match. The video packages for the ppv almost made me want to see the ppv. Rush vs PCO sounds interesting.

  10. Lio Rush has really stepped it up for this show. Last week's match with Raul Mendoza and this week's tag match vs Nese and Davari were both pretty good. The addition of Swerve,Garza and Mendoza have helped a lot too. With Oney and Kendrick gone, I'm guessing they will add more NXT people. Also, going from last week's show in Full sail to this week back on the road really makes me wish they go back to Full sail. I thought it worked well.

    Fatu coming out for the match with Maff was cool, but the match sucked. That botched superkick was horrible.

    Forgot to mention, Stephan Bonnar vs. Gorilla Blanco was atrocious. I legit laughed when Gorilla Blanco came out with Teddy Hart and Deon James acting as if he's a member of the Hart Foundation and being introduced as a Catch wrestler. 

    Yeah fatu vs maff wasn't great but I'm glad it happened now that maff is in roh and done with usa pro.  That Blanco match was rough. You should have seen him vs Manny Fernandez about a year ago.

    Went to the USA Pro show @Tim Evans mentioned previously. I headed out of the MLW show at 8 PM before the Havoc vs. Warner Falls Count Anywhere match and I only missed 3 matches from the USA Pro according to the guy at the door, so I got to see all the matches I wanted to see -- the Maff vs. Haku tag title match, the Scott Steiner match and the Vordell Walker vs. Chris Dickinson title match that didn't take place as Dickinson had cancelled and was replaced by Jesse Neal.

    The show ran loooooong, but it was packed. It started an hour before I got there and it ended at 12 AM. So a 5 hour show. Haku rules, but he is almost immobile at this point so the tag title match sucked. Steiner cut a promo in which he said all the women at the venue where fat white trash skanks. The match sucked, but it was awesome seeing Scott live. Dickinson had cancelled his booking 2 weeks ago, but I had no idea. We still got a really wild and awesome Walker vs. Neal arena brawl in which they were legit throw some stiff strikes and hitting each other with chairs and taking some insane bumps on chairs and the guard rail. If this show makes video, as it should because someone was recording it ringside, watch this match. It was great. There was also a Shane Douglas vs. Justin Credible match that sucked. Credible is in really rough shape.

    You misaed the jaka 4 way match which might have been the best of the night. Also missed the headbangers who really havent aged at all. That show was long and sad. Justin credible bleeding and no one caring then crying when Shane did his usual intro for candido and bam bam 4 hours into the show was sad. Maff vs Jacob fatu was a nice surprise. I left during the main cause a 5 hour 15 match show with no intermission is too much.
