Re: Independent Wrestling Discussion

With the way their iPPV's usually go this is their best move. Seems like a step backwards sadly but it's become an ongoing joke at this point. As for The Briscoes... just totally weird. I can't understand letting your world champion slip away like that.

Not to mention it seems like RoH knew they'd be leaving BEFORE they put the belt on him! What the hell is that all about?

Re: Independent Wrestling Discussion

I just have no idea what's going in any of their minds. Who knows where this will take the company or the Briscoes. What really has to be asked now is... is Matt Hardy going to become world champ? Seems like the top choice right now. He's actually doing a great job as a heel right now but that's just a weird image.

Not yet! He or Elgin could be solid candidates.

I'm at a loss for words as to why they put the belt on a Briscoe to begin with. I rolled my eyes when I found out.

I was one the last supporters of Matt's when he was tearing up in TNA, but he even burned that bridge when he fell off the rails hard.

I haven't seen any of his stuff in ROH... it's that good? I might be able to get behind him one last time.

Chocolate Vanilla? #Shudders #PleaseNO

I'm not too familiar with Elgin but I've heard good things.

How's Jimmy Jacobs been since he returned to ROH? I've always been a mark of his and would come back to the product to see him have a run.

I haven't seen any of his matches, but his promos have been pretty great.

He's still good, not as dark as he used to be (he's got his personal life together since) but still does a great job.

In news about a better company, PWG will be back in August for TEN at the beginning of the month, and BOLA over the weekend at the end of the month.

Re: Independent Wrestling Discussion

That first promo was the best thing he's done since Matt Hardy V1

Re: Independent Wrestling Discussion

Looks like Jay Briscoe is officially stripped of the belt and Elgin's next in line. But he wants to earn it...

Re: Independent Wrestling Discussion

Smart Mark Video are having a sale, 25% off your order if it's over $60. I was planning on ordering 3 DVD's (AIW's Absolution 8, and both JLIT Tournament nights) so this order makes it so that I can get another $15 DVD for free! Pretty sweet deal for these circumstances. Was looking for another DVD and I checked into AAW, turns out they're pretty awesome. They use a lot of great talent, I think I'll continue following them from here on out. Narrowed it down to two DVD's, anyone want to help me choose?

Days Of Defiance

1. Louis Lyndon & Marion Fontaine vs. Zero Gravity
2. Heidi Lovelace vs. "Miss Natural" Heather Patera
3. Jake Crist vs. Jimmy Jacobs
4. Davey Richards vs. Mixed Martial Archie
5. Davey Richards & Kyle O' Reilly vs. Michael Elgin & ACH
6. Dan Lawrence, Keith Walker & Tweek Phoenix vs. Colt Cabana, Juntai Miller & Mat Fitchett
7. Eddie Kingston debuts in AAW
8. Silas Young vs. Samuray Del Sol
9. Last Man Standing: Sami Callihan vs. Shane Hollister

OR

Point Of No Return

1. Silas Young vs. Jimmy Jacobs
2. Dan Lawrence & Markus Crane vs. Colt Cabana & Juntai Miller
3. Lamar Titan vs. Rich Swann vs. Louis Lyndon
4. Tweek Phoenix & Keith Walker vs. Marion Fontaine & Darin Corbin
5. Shane Hollister vs. Sami Callihan
6. Saraya Knight, Miss Natural & Taylor Made vs. MsChif, Christina Von Eerie & Heidi Lovelace
7. Kyle O'Reilly vs. ACH
8. Arik Cannon & Mat Fitchett vs. Irish Airborne
9. Michael Elgin vs. Davey Richards

Re: Independent Wrestling Discussion

Ended up getting Point Of No Return. Is it bad that the main reason I was considering Days of Defiance was for Davey vs Mixed Martial Archie? Also, Zero Gravity are how I originally found out about AAW so I wanted to see more of them.

Super excited for that three way, don't sleep on Titan and Lyndon either! Haven't seen too much of them but both are pretty dope. Fun spots are sure to be involved.

Hell no, that was the first match that caught my eye as well. :lol:
