Think I will give this one a go. Like the look of the main event as Elgin is actually one of the promising talents which ROH has built up and as a stop gap min-feud with a decent build behind it this could work.

Does anyone else think that ROH are in danager of adding too many PPV's per year?

I don't think they need one every month for sure, but I'm assuming since they haven't stopped yet, that they're getting good enough revenue to keep doing it. Product-wise, I think it'll hurt because we'll get more PPVs that have no real meaning to them and you can tell are just filler.

 

[TKK]

I'd like if ROH had a Pay Per View once every two months. Lord knows that they don't have the talent or TV time to push 12 interesting pay per views a year.

I don't like iPPVs.

Stream is usually shit and site servers are never large enough to carry it.

That's ways ROH's problem. I've never bought an iPPV from them and don't plan to at this point until they get their shit together.

Thought it was fine when they with GFL and certainly didn't have all these tech issues. At the end of the day I just wanted to support ROH.

 

[Chris]

Nah, they left GFL after the Showdown in the Sun fiasco, then tried to do them on their own and have been failing since May. None were as bad as SITS though, like half or maybe more of night 2 wasn't shown.

 

[Chris]

Card updated, and wow, this looks miles better than DBDX.

What happened there? Still putting that one thing aside you have to say they were better off when they were with them. People forget that in 2010/11 ROH were drawing very good buyrates, ok that was more down to the product at the time but still look at the problems sudderly moving has caused.

Yeah like the new matches, the TV and tag title bouts may steal the show and actually have an exciting fresh feel to them.

I don't remember since I didn't buy the PPV myself, but I think something like half of one of the days ended up being missed and the other was just marred with other technical difficulties the whole day.

 

[Chris]

Davey Richards vs Jay Lethal confirmed, actually pretty interested in that one with Lethal's new attitude. First time I've really been interested in Lethal since he returned to ROH.

 

[The New F'n Show]

Always have liked Lethal. Interesting to see what he does with this character change.

 

[Chris]

Updated the card to feature two new tag team matches. The show is this weekend with the only guy lacking a match who is confirmed for the show being Rhino.

 

[Andrew]

I'm watching this via stream, found a real good stream for it as well.

Bravados vs. Cedric & Caprice is first

That was a great opener.

Cedric & Caprice get the win, I enjoyed that match. 8/10

Mike Mondo & Mike Bennett are pulling off a great match here! Couple of awesome spots! I'm entertained so far.

- Bennett picks up the win, I'd give the match a 8/10

- WGTT pick up the win over Titus & Whitmer, wasn't too bad.. a few botches 6/10

- Great pre-match promo from Lethal, takes on Richards now. So far so good, loving the counters into submission holds Richards is doing. This match is nuts, gone for so long, counters and whatnot, everything's happening!

- Fucking insane match, must have gone for like half an hour. Either way I was marking out at the counters and fucking epicness, MOTY right here. 10/10!

- Roderick Strong refusing to fight Thomas and leaves... Truth brings out Rhino.

-Thomas reminds me of EDDY from Tekken, gets an upset winning via roll-up over Rhino. 5/10

- Rhino attacks Truth and lifts him up before throwing him into the barricade - OUCH!!!

- Cole vs. Edwards now, hoping for a great match here. Crowd erupts to 'This is AWESOME' after Cole's sick Over the Rope Apron DDT! Fantastic match, Cole grabs the win. 8.5/10

- SCUM gets the win over Briscoes, not a bad match at all 7/10

- Steen/Elgin is great so far, nice sleeperhold on the apron with Steen spinning and going through the table with Elgin.

SUPER PACKAGE DRIVER!!!

FUCK! Steen's best title match there... I'd have to also give this 10/10!

Roderick Strong comes after the match and side kicks Elgin and leaves... Nigel gives Steen a box... inside the box is GENERICO'S MASK!!!
