Did anyone else see the screencap of the TM map for Death Before Dishonor which shows they've sold roughly 70 tickets so far? If they want to sell the place out here's my idea: say that because he just beat Naito, White and Moxley Toru Yano will get a ROH World Title shot vs Matt Taven as the main event.
I'd be down for that.

In retrospect, letting Cody and the Bucks run All In looks like an all-time bad decision.
Sure, they might have lost them over it still, but it's a lot less likely they leave and become foundation stones in the company that completely usurped ROH's position as the number 2 company, and blew past them in importance literally overnight.
And, hell, considering how much the Bucks didn't want the WWE schedule, how anti-WWE Kenny mostly has been, and possible lingering negative feelings from Cody, ROH might not have even lost their draws.
Totally agree with this. It's like they attempted to have an open marriage, and then Cody/Bucks immediately wanted to break up. But that aside, they certainly lucked out being able to hook up with the Khans.

The crowd also seemed deader than usual. There was no reaction during the Club's beat down of Ricochet, which was one of the better parts of the show.

Why do I get the feeling that it's a DC or Marvel project?
ETA: I just realized what a missed opportunity there is, not having had a Captain America film where John Cena played Super Patriot/USAgent, in that arc where Cap was replaced. Could be reworked with Falcon America in a future film, but ... still ...
Cena would be the perfect USAgent...a big musclebound crazy guy cosplaying Captain America.

Omg... he does look like a hipster behind the bar.
My wife says he dresses like a manager at TGIFridays.

Hiring Quack to run RAW and Super Dragon to run SDL would actually get me watching again.
Would Dragon Dragon run NXT-UK?

Apparently they've been separated for a year. That's why Laura never showed up during the whole "looking for the blonde girl" BtE angle.
Clearly if he's going around letting everyone touch his man parts, this marriage would be doomed from the start.

I've been really liking how they've been using Taguchi as of late.

While I run the risk of being "that guy" I would have hoped those kind of jokes would be off limits. At least until it's proven he was full of shit in which case joke away.
As for AEW groups and such I get a taste of it when seeing the comments sometimes from BTE. If that's a tiny microcosm of what goes on elsewhere I've seen enough to think "Fuck that shit" Sometimes it's okay to stay insulated in a message board if it means not having to deal with that mess.
Agreed. That's why I lurked here for ever and barely post.

It's not surprising at all, but I do think it's interesting that AEW's first Weekly Pro Wrestling cover features Omega, and not Moxley or Jericho, both of whom have big matches at Dominion.
I guess it is because most of us assume Moxley and Jericho are going to be more or less one-shots.

Finally got around to finishing Mister Miracle.
SpoilerIs he dead?

Dork Angle was always my favourite version of Kurt Angle. Boombox Brock has brought the laughs. Both work for the comedy and both are bad assess especially Lesnar.
Boombox Brock works because even though he looks completely ridiculous, he can completely snap and beat the fuck out of anything that moves. If you were that much of a monster, you can get away with being completely ridiculous.

He had a match with Liger that is pretty great.
I think this was the first thing I ever saw on YouTube.

So that was my first look at Hangman Page. He reminds me of a miniaturized Bobby Duncam Jr wrestling like he's Shawn Michaels.
I have to say it's a weird combo.
I've never been able to explain why I can't get into Page and this describes it perfectly.

Here is the BR article
I am amused at the part where basically you can't work for the company if you don't know who Lou Thesz was
Also - there is a lot of Cody being all "Trust the process! I would never lie to you!" in it
I picked up on that in a lot of his quotes, and I get that it was kind of a softball article being that they are under the same corporate umbrella. I do wonder what will be the company's first major problem and how they react to it.

Most of the Teddy Hart backstage segments remind me of something from Trailer Park Boys. To me, that's a good thing.

I'm not surprised that ROH kept giving you free tickets since you were their first champion.

Trying to capitalize on The Wrestler didn't exactly work. That and Austin Aries second reign that was all about getting over the "Greatest Man That Ever Lived" character just delayed Tyler Black's reign to the point he was almost out the door when he finally got the belt. Black deciding to leave while he was still champion was a really bad look for ROH. The Adam Pearce era was a pretty bad time for ROH.
That's right around when I started following ROH regularly, but I think that was in part that after attending my first TV taping, they kept giving me free tickets to the next taping. It was like a never ending conga line of tickets.

I think an episode about the Inoki/Ali fight would be great.

I'm not really hyped for a 4 horsemen unit in AEW for the reasons @Playa Shunna Ver 3.0 mentioned. Now, Bash at the Beach and Battlebowl I'm there for. I mean, if you could get The Revival and two bigger single stars that would fit in both in terms of character and in-ring quality, fine. Even then it would come off as them being fanboys/nerds rather than them doing their own thing.
That's the problem I have with it. Although I do love the idea of Paul Roma being a member.

Here's my submission for a team. I'm sure this can change by the weekend.
Captain America - Clearly he's the best leader in the Marvel Universe, if not one of the best.
Red Hulk - I know a lot of people don't like the General Thunderbolt-as-Hulk, but I really did. He fits insanely strong team member check box. I also like that he's a brilliant tactician on his own. You can have some really fun subplots with him trying to lead the team (he is pretty manipulative) and the weird relationship he has with Cap. So Rulk is also the wildcard.
Sersi - She fits the god archetype.
Valkyrie - Every team needs a bad ass fighter.
Beast - Resident smartypants of the team, and you do need a mutant. This is Marvel after all.

I think a Mastodon crossover would be the only thing to get me on the Braun train.
