Stay Gold Posted February 27, 2015 Share Posted February 27, 2015 Most of the matches listed above are on Youtube as well, which is pretty great. I think the only ones missing are the Aries and Briscoes matches. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JRGoldman Posted February 27, 2015 Share Posted February 27, 2015 I always really liked the Joe v. Danielson Cage match from ROH. I also think the Joe/Lethal vs. Rottweilers improptu match from Manhattan Mayhem is awesome. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jiji Posted February 27, 2015 Share Posted February 27, 2015 Anything with Joe and the Rottweilers was fantastic. I haven't seen them in ages but weren't the Danielson PWG matches from '04ish worth watching? I have a hard time seeing those two having anything less than good matches together.

mattdangerously Posted February 27, 2015 Share Posted February 27, 2015 I haven't seen a ton of Joe's ROH work, but I do really like his match against Paul London. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RandomAct Posted February 27, 2015 Share Posted February 27, 2015 I think you could show him any of Joe's "giving a crap" TNA matches. They are usually above average, and a bit more easily digestible for a youngster than say, an epic ROH main event. Joe kicking the snot out of Daniels or AJ for 10 minutes is a winner.

Cristobal Posted February 27, 2015 Share Posted February 27, 2015 Does ROH sign wrestlers to exclusive contracts? Friend linked me to an indy's FB page that said Joe was "not taking bookings after 4/23". Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm not an expert on Joe in TNA, but apart from Joe vs. AJ vs. Daniels, wasn't there a surprisingly insanely good Joe vs. Rhyno vs. Monty Brown 3-way? Another really great match from ROH was the cage match against Jay Briscoe, but that's also not something i would show to a kid. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Friend linked me to an indy's FB page that said Joe was "not taking bookings after 4/23". For the most part, yes they do. (Which is why Hero came and went so quick after he left WWE.) But there are some guys who aren't under contract (like Strong, for example). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Monty pretty much had one foot out the door at that time if I recall. Joe was very reliable in TNA until about 07-08 or so. I'm hardpressed to remember anything memorable after the Angle cage match though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Curt McGirt Posted February 27, 2015 Share Posted February 27, 2015 He would have been the Sultan instead of Rikishi. Or maybe they would be a tag team... Sultan I and Sultan II? Sultan and Shah? Sultan and Zoltan? Sultan and Caliph would have surely backfired years later... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
christopher.annino Posted February 27, 2015 Share Posted February 27, 2015 While walking through the grocery store today, I passed the magazine section and saw that WWE put out a "Legends of Wrestlemania" issue. On the cover? Hogan, Austin, Savage, Hart, Michaels, Helmsley, Taker, Cena, Rock, and Bryan. Maybe it's nothing but I think that's a pretty big indicator of what the company thinks of Bryan. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
piranesi Posted February 27, 2015 Share Posted February 27, 2015 Baby New Year 1995. He'd wear a diaper and hit people with a big rattle. He would then feud with Bastion Booger as Baby New Year 1996 and after losing would be rebranded just in time for the attitude era as "sullen teen New Year 1997" 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
