[Looking Glass]

I'm glad we're getting some storytelling but I don't know why it always feels like The Iron Savages and Karter/Garrison are always part of multi-man tag matches and the repeated four-corner matches seem more like they're trying to get people on the card rather than tell a story.

I think ROH living where it lives means that it'll never be its own thing again because the title only changes hands at AEW events. I'm hoping throughout the year we might see more of a balance but the way they burn through these tapings with 10 matches at a time doesn't fill me with hope. A lot of the time it feels like you look at the spoilers to see what might be an interesting pairing or match to watch as opposed rather than being gripped by its storytelling.

Still, I'm glad that talents like Ethan Page and Dalton Castle are getting time to have actual feuds.
