Patrick B. Posted December 16, 2013 Share Posted December 16, 2013 I really don't get Bennett. Every time he gets the big push, I just feel like someone in that office has the hots for Maria and that's the means to the end, so to speak. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Big Fresh Posted December 16, 2013 Share Posted December 16, 2013 Bennett is awesome. One of my favorite parts of ROH for awhile now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alan4L Posted December 20, 2013 Share Posted December 20, 2013 Yeah I loved the show. Exactly the type of show ROH needed. I haven't been that into the company in 2013 but if they can continue to have shows like this I'll be a big fan once again.-The Bucks match was nuts. They were unreal in this and ACH and TD did a great job too.-Steen vs. Bennett was a wonderfully crafted match that built and built so well. It was exactly as it should have been.-My highlight of the show was definitely Ciampa vs. Taven. I cannot get over how perfect this was. Ciampa just brought this insane energy and fire from the moment this started and the whole House Of Truth were fed into him in classic fashion. After a few minutes I was thinking, man if they just END THIS in the next few minutes while the crowd is still going bonkers, this could be an amazing moment. They did and it was!-The main event took a while to get going but they turned it into a really engaging ECW style "Dog & Pony Show". The crowd were into every twist and turn at the end and so was I. On paper, I'd normally hate the rollup finish but the timing and reaction for it was just perfect. It was a prime example of that type of finish working successfully.Other things to mention:-The Whitmer/Jacobs/Strong angle was well done but I wasn't too into the match that preceeded it.-Outlaw Inc are kinda terrible but Fish and O'Reilly looked good.-Silas Young is great. I hope that feud continues.-Matt Hardy is such a brilliant cunt! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dewar Posted December 22, 2013 Share Posted December 22, 2013 On the show this week, Scarlett wished me a happy holiday. That makes me happy. Also on the show this week, the upcoming events listing had one show scheduled for January, and it's a television taping. What the hell is going on with this company?

Spontaneous Posted December 22, 2013 Share Posted December 22, 2013 It is supposed to be more of a television product now, which is unfortunate. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Newbury Posted December 22, 2013 Share Posted December 22, 2013 They've got 6 shows and 2 TV tapings in the first 3 months of the year. That doesn't seem like a bad amount. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Patrick B. Posted December 22, 2013 Share Posted December 22, 2013 Fast-forwarded through this one. I imagine next week will be clippage as well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dewar Posted December 23, 2013 Share Posted December 23, 2013 Two shows per month is not a really good average. Even TNA runs more often. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JRGoldman Posted December 29, 2013 Share Posted December 29, 2013 When Styles vs. London II happens, I want the show to be called "Better Late Than Never". What's Michael Shane up to these days? Maybe they could have a three way dance where they all go for Shooting Star Presses at the same time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Harbinger Posted December 29, 2013 Share Posted December 29, 2013 Yeah, that made no sense. He should've went with Jody Fleisch or Red. I would have accepted Izzy Dragon or Teddy Hart too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Petey Posted December 29, 2013 Share Posted December 29, 2013 I would watch the hell out of any combination of AJ Styles, Paul London, Jody Fleisch and Amazing Red matches. There. I said it. You know you all would too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cool arrow Posted December 30, 2013 Share Posted December 30, 2013 I know, right? If you watch the "top 95 moves of Chris Hero" video, only about 15 of them involve a cravat. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Harbinger Posted December 30, 2013 Share Posted December 30, 2013 Hold up... Hero isn't using a cravat base offense anymore? I know he's elbow happy, but I though he had atleast a 2 cravat per match policy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JRGoldman Posted December 30, 2013 Share Posted December 30, 2013 One of my all time favorite ROH moments is in Cage of Death when Hero sets up chairs and weapons....and then puts a dude in a cravats while standing on a chair. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MGFanJay Posted December 30, 2013 Share Posted December 30, 2013 AJ Styles returns to ROH on Jan 4 to face Roderick Strong Love the use of the Impact Wrestling color scheme, and 1/4/14 now being a big date for ROH after TNA did oh so much on 1/4/10. At least this will likely build up one or two future ROH guys using AJ, unless it's a regular gig. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He stopped w/ the cravats when he dropped the goofy, fun stuff like knee walking and cartwheels mid-match and became That Young Knockout Kid.
