Ramo2653 Posted February 17, 2017 Share Posted February 17, 2017 Depends on each wrestlers personal situation (pay vs. time away from home, etc.). Even AJ admitted on the Austin podcast that the was thinking about going back to TNA before WWE called because he didn't like being away from his family as much.

Albright's only 38, so hopefully he has a long, happy life ahead of him. I was a huge Albright fan. I was probably the only person that owned Albright's Gun for Hire shirt. I could watch him Awesome bomb Shane Hagadorn through a table all day and never get tired of it. Man, I *loved* Albright during his RoH run. He was tremendous in the ring, but I thought surprisingly charismatic, too. There's a Colt Cabana segment co-hosted by Albright and I found him much funnier than Colt. Final Battle '08 features a run-in from the American Wolves (it might have been when they first debuted) as part of Larry Sweeney's stable. Albright begs Cary Silkin for a Cage Warfare match, and his selling both of asking for it and getting it are tremendous. I really thought he was looking primed for a return to WWE, but I'm glad he's having successful out of the business. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm pretty sure Final Battle '08 was the ROH debut of the American Wolves as part of Sweet & Sour Inc. I should know, I was there. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
zev Posted February 19, 2017 Share Posted February 19, 2017 If Colt Cabana could go off and make his living by working in the indies that I never watch, yeah that would be great. 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Web Conn Posted February 19, 2017 Share Posted February 19, 2017 Thoughts on this weekends show: Silas vs James was a fun opener. Silas is really strong getting James up for the Misery. I would like to see Silas and Bruiser find a third man and get a run with the Trios Title, they should win them at SCOH and then lose them a week later at the TV Tapings. Jay Briscoe cut an awesome promo as always The Bobby Fish video package was good. Fish deserves a ROH World Title reign sooner rather than later. Like at Best in the World. He's gonna get picked up by the WWE, especially if the Cruiser Division takes off they could used a ground based guy to counter all the high flying stuff. Colt Cabana vs the Boys. I know some of you on the board do not like Cabana as a wrestler. I do. I like Colts heel work in ROH. The handicap match did what is was suppose to do, further the Colt-Castle feud. The blowoff match must be at Manhattan Mayhem cuz Dalton and The Boys are challenging for the Trios Title at the Anniversary Show. Christopher Daniels cut an intense passion filled promo, I want to see him win the World Title at the Anniversary Show (then lose it to Catle at SCOH). Christopher Daniels vs Jay Briscoe was a tremendous back and forth. Started off slow but once it picked up it got good. Some crazy outside dives from both men. Kazarian and Mark on commentary was a nice touch. Both men brought an inside prospective of Jay's and Daniels mind sets coming into this match. That them leaving the booth and going into their respective corners to support their brother/partner was a cool piece of the match. That Super Angel Wings off the middle rope was an awesome way to end the match. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Spritenaut 32 Posted February 20, 2017 Share Posted February 20, 2017 Vince trusting the Briscoes with a live mic on one of the tv shows might be the surest sign yet that he's gone senile. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Web Conn Posted February 22, 2017 Share Posted February 22, 2017 I hope they bring in an outside tag team for this. First team that comes to my mind for some reason is the Rock n Roll Express. I think mostly for how hungover Ricky Morton would be in Vegas. I can't think of another outside team on the Indies that I'd like to see who isn't with WWN.

mattdangerously Posted February 23, 2017 Share Posted February 23, 2017 Lucha Brothers? No reason to think they can't work ROH, is there? Are either of them still under contract with LU? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jiji Posted February 23, 2017 Share Posted February 23, 2017 Yes, both of them are. We're not sure how their leaving AAA will influence their standing with Lucha Underground, but there's no way they'll be working for ROH for a while. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Curt McGirt Posted February 23, 2017 Share Posted February 23, 2017 Yeah, considering LU is taking their contracts seriously enough insist they blur out a referee's face appearing in a match aired on TNA... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Web Conn Posted February 23, 2017 Share Posted February 23, 2017 How bout LAX? They've wrestled the Briscoe's once before but that was 8 1/2 years ago. That'd be a cool surprise and be nice to see homicide on the 15th Anniversary Show as he was on the first ROH Show. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Technico Support Posted February 24, 2017 Share Posted February 24, 2017 I want a 4 way with Jay Briscoe, Jay Lethal, Jay White and J Diesel (reverting to his old name for one night only). It could be for the Super J Cup. J Mascis could play the entrance music Violent J on commentary 7 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

clintthecrippler Posted February 24, 2017 Share Posted February 24, 2017 Was there anything specific that happened with Homicide that caused him to fall off the face of the earth in terms of being a "name" indy guy? It just feels weird that someone that was so synonymous with the glory days of Ring of Honor is relegated to working CZW and random New York/Jersey Indies while his peers during that era have either gone on to WWE success or circled back to being ROH mainstays seemingly for life.

TNA seemingly kinda ruined him. Homicide had that aura about him that was just so strong in RoH. And he just.... doesn't have that anymore. It's a weird thing. They tried bringing him back to RoH, and nobody gave a shit. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Z Posted February 24, 2017 Share Posted February 24, 2017 You people know that Homicide, Low Ki and Eddie Kingston have been teaming in AAW lately, right? 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Web Conn Posted February 24, 2017 Share Posted February 24, 2017 Him and Eddie Kingstons tag team didn't go over well and they got released over fighting with fans at the Hammerstein, but you don't think LAX vs Briscoes would garner a reaction from the fanbase? I know Homicide and Hernandez arent as big as they were ten years ago but I think a one time reunion against the Brisceos would be cool. Maybe I'm in the lone minority.

I would love to see that because you know they can bring the goods in that. I think what hurt them in ROH was the weird gimmick they were going for with the masks. If they were doing it like they were I think they would have fared a lot better. And can Kingston even do ROH since he's with TNA? Not sure the legalities on that one considering they both have TV. EDIT: I was referring to Homicide/Kingston, but if we're talking LAX I soured on Hernandez quickly after his time in LU. It wasn't all his fault, but he definitely screwed himself over after claiming he was done with LU while in TNA. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
