Is a proving ground match similar to the title eliminators AEW does?

similar but different

in a proving grounds match, there's a 15 minute time limit and the challenger only has to survive to get a title shot. Eliminator matches also eliminate you from contention for a while, where I don't believe that necessarily applies in proving grounds

Ah ok

I like the addition to the proving ground match, if you make the champion, go to a draw you get a title match.

Yeah that's an old ROH rule, I remember it from the early 2010s TV at least

I’m not sure if they were still doing it near the end but I do remember them doing it a couple of times from the early Sinclair era I want to say. Which is just another way that Tony honors the ROH tradition.

 

[Comrade Khan]

oh i g i might watch since im subbed for the month

 

[Chris]

Looks like it'll be mostly squashes sadly but I'm here for Mark's comments at least

 

[Smart Marx]

This is why Tony should go back to monthly supercards for Ring of Honor now that he’s not on traditional pay-per-view. It gives people incentive to stay subbed.
