The Natural Posted January 10, 2021 Share Posted January 10, 2021 (edited) Hell of a fall for Marty Scurll. A part of NJPW Jr. Heavyweight division with connections to AEW but decided on ROH with a multi-year contract/head booker role. Through the Speaking Out movement, ROH and Marty part ways and he's stuck in limbo with nobody taking him on yet. I only liked the Villain look and using the Crossface Chickenwing. Felt that way even before Speaking Out. Edited January 10, 2021 by The Natural 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Natural Posted January 10, 2021 Share Posted January 10, 2021 As it stands, I'd say AEW's out. Impact Wrestling as well getting rid of Joey Ryan/Michael Elgin. NJPW and the UK scene seen the likely destinations. The coronavirus is still rampant with people catching it, dying of it and travel restrictions. If Marty leaves the USA, you'd think he'll have a difficult time getting back. WWE maybe? MLW? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RIPPA Posted January 10, 2021 Author Share Posted January 10, 2021 Add Tracy Williams to the list of those re-signing Dalton Castle, however, is a free agent. He does have an offer from ROH (reportedly) but has not accepted it yet Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DEAN Posted January 17, 2021 Share Posted January 17, 2021 Oh man, the best episode of ROH in a while. They should make ROH like Big Japan- the Pure title would be like the Strong Style division and the Lucha Libre/international style would be like the death match stuff at the top. Flip Gordon brings out the best Rhett Titus match I've seen. Rey Horus vs Dragon Lee was fucking great state of the art Lucha match. HUZZAH! 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ramo2653 Posted January 17, 2021 Share Posted January 17, 2021 I actually watches this episode between the Packers/Rams game and I actually went back to watch the main event. That match was great. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe in the short term he pops up on Strong? They did set up a match against White before pandemic hit so in theory that could be a big program for Strong. I don't want it to happen, but I admit, I'm kinda curious how the wrestling world would react to it. Edited January 18, 2021 by Archibald Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Western NJPW crowd cares about these issues- it's why Elgin got canned, they couldn't use him outside of Japan. I was at the show where that match was set up. It was a huge pop.

That's not a bad idea, and I like the concept of the Pure division. The only problem is the matches I've seen from it are dull as dishwater. I went ahead and skipped Flip/Titus not only because of that but also because Rhett Titus is really ugly, and not in a good wrestling way (sorry dude). The main was a really solid lucharesu match though. Pretty stiff, and the bruise/swelling that Horus got on his back was nasty. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Marty Sugar Posted January 19, 2021 Share Posted January 19, 2021 I know most of you don't mean it the way it reads, but Marty Scurll fucked up. Badly. He doesn't "deserve" to go anywhere to rebuild his career for while. 8 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Curt McGirt Posted January 27, 2021 Share Posted January 27, 2021 Woods vs. Castle was real good! I guess I can take back my comments about the Pure matches depending on the workers. It still amazes me how tiny Gresham is. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Curt McGirt Posted February 9, 2021 Share Posted February 9, 2021 Another good episode this week. Good seeing Cheeseburger again, I guess he's lost the skinny jobber gimmick for something more flavorful (pardon the pun). He eats a wicked piledriver. Then the eight-man turns into a tornado tag which turns into a wild brawl/spotfest with PCO exploding a table with his cannonball. Then you look and there's a single full bottle of Gatorade sitting right next to him that didn't even get knocked over! Everyone lays it in too which is nice, and PCO hits an insane sidewalk slam on I think Dragon Lee. I skipped over the opening stuff with the Bruiser though. I like him but keep him far away from the circle of Chris Barnes up there with his dreadlocks and lame Manson rap. What happened to Brian Milonas?

Good luck pulling that off. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Curt McGirt Posted February 9, 2021 Share Posted February 9, 2021 Nevermind, reading the results I guess Milonas was in the part I skipped. It was fun seeing Ingobernables treat Flip like trash the whole time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hammerva Posted February 14, 2021 Share Posted February 14, 2021 I am not sure if it is a good or bad thing that almost every 2nd tier promotion is doing this "forbidden door" thing while the closest door ROH has used is realizing that they have some good talent in their Dojo and actually using them Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
