Nice Guy Eddie Posted October 27, 2022 Share Posted October 27, 2022 Any guesses as to which former ROH champion will be Jericho's opponent next week? Will it be Claudio? I'd like to see Jericho defend the title at Full Gear. Imagine the pop say, Homicide would get from the North Jersey/NYC crowd. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
John from Cincinnati Posted October 27, 2022 Share Posted October 27, 2022 I’m more curious who the “friend” will be in Darby vs Lethal. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Weren't they both on Impact together? Darby mentioned Sting hasn't been around. Edited October 27, 2022 by mystman Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I would seriously think of letting him walk or cutting the cord. I don't see a lot in him moving forward. That match was all Danielson. Did you actually watch that match? 5 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GuerrillaMonsoon Posted October 27, 2022 Share Posted October 27, 2022 Yeah, I suspect the MJF beatdown is a swerve. I'd much rather it be a bigger reveal that they were working for Punk/Kingston/Savio Vega/etc the whole time. Flat ending, but then I read all this and realized there were 3 very good matches on the show. All enjoyable. Where the fuck is Jungle Boy? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Craig H Posted October 27, 2022 Share Posted October 27, 2022 That ending being a swerve would be some real loltna shit. I see it more as giving MJF an instant program once he wins the title and Moxley goes on vacation. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MoeCristyV.1.6 Posted October 27, 2022 Share Posted October 27, 2022 W Morrissey is awesome! Him vs MJF is money. He just doesn't fit in a group with Ethan Page and other undercarders. He is too big for that (7 Feet? I think you can't teach that!?!). 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

To be honest, the hard camera crowds for AEW and WWE seemingly act like they've been abducted and forced to sit on camera at a show (the WWE hard camera crowds are a lot worse for that sort of thing). Fans are not exactly standing up too often and are just sorta there at times. Like they don't think it's socially acceptable to be loud at a wrestling card? Although it's always possible that the mix sucks and the people in the cheap seats are undermiced. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MoeCristyV.1.6 Posted October 27, 2022 Share Posted October 27, 2022 We sadly lost the whole crowd that WCW had in the nineties. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shartnado Posted October 27, 2022 Share Posted October 27, 2022 I need to watch most of the matches again, since I was preparing food and then eating it at the dinner table, like a civilized person for once, but holy hell was this a loaded show! In the end there, The Firm apparently said "Fuck Your Retainer!" That was a fucking three count on the Fear Factor! Mox realized he got super lucky due to an incompetent ref and finished the match as fast as possible after that one! Not a huge Penta fan, but he got robbed on that one! OC being a fighting champion, because he just doesn't care, is awesome! Sammy vs Bryan ended up being way better than I expected, but I missed most of it as explained previously, and need to rewatch it. I wonder if Saraya vs Britt could be some sort of cinematic match, just to be on the safe side? If they aren't building towards FTR vs The Acclaimed now, then it's going to be too late. I guess Donkey Club is vying for the ROH tag belts in December? Is Hayter getting the title one PPV later than she should have? Wheeler is becoming a real player. Him vs Danielson at Full Gear in some sort of respect match? 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Green Meanie Posted October 27, 2022 Share Posted October 27, 2022 Hayter's stock went way up after that match. I still hate Riho though. I absolutely LOVE that Jericho is going to go after all ROH champs now, give em' all hell Jericho! That Elite promo was...something? I'm interested in seeing where that's going, but I'm fairly bummed it's going to lead to an Elite return. The conspiracy theories on Reddit have been pretty entertaining.

DEAN Posted October 27, 2022 Share Posted October 27, 2022 I was watching Ren Narita vs Tomohiro Ishii and realized that Danielson did the Ishii spot where he takes chops all across the ring to trap Sammy in the corner. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Matt D Posted October 27, 2022 Share Posted October 27, 2022 I still have to watch the women's match and the main, but the first half of the show was very good. FTR vs SITG broke down too early for my liking but you can't fault the action. It really shows how Dax is just not the guy to be the torchbearer for Neo-Bret-ism though. Claudio looked like such a star in the opener and Sammy is pretty much the perfect 2022 Danielson opponent in giving him everything he could possibly want (even if it's not necessarily everything I want). 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think they were going for a Nexus thing, but it didn't really work. It came off more to me like what one of those big NWO beatdowns from the '90s would've been like if they only sent Vincent, Michael Wallstreet, and a leather-pants clad Bossman to the ring. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I thought he was crap last week too, but this one was all over the place and I was already leaning on the FFWD button before the Firm killed it dead. If you take out the MJF segments, that was one of the best televised, crispest, well-put together wrestling TV programs that I can remember.

Popped for entrances and catchphrases, cheered for cool heels, dead for matches. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
