Survival works pretty simple. You have 12 wrestlers. Each paired off in individual matches. Throughout the event, each individual match winner moves onto the Main Event where all 6 winners compete in a 6 man elimination match. The last man standing wins and gains an ROH World title shot.

They should show this stuff either on hdnet or in ppv package when its finished.I'm assuming they high quality wrestling matches at this event and I think if they showed this event in either of those ways I stated before would be good for either getting fans hooked by showing it on hdnet or more profit by showing it in something like a ppv package.
I know what you mean, but the concept of the TV show is to get fans to buy the PPV, and the DVD's. ROH's biggest shows of the year are typically DVD shows. THe matches on the DVD are typically better than the TV matches, which is like ROH lite. So if ROH gives away it's major shows on TV, than it would hurt the DVD sales.

Just got back....decent show, with everything considered.
Colt Cabana vs. Rhett Titus - Fun opener, real entertaining. 2.5
Cluadio vs. Grizzy - Good squash 2.0
Steen vs. O Reily - 3.0 O Reily impressed the fans, but this was short and sweet.
Steen puts generico threw a table.
Corino vs. Cole 2.0 - These two didn't exactly click.
Hero vs. Edwards 3.25 - Edwards was chopping the shit outta hero. Match of the night?!? Maybe.
Pretty good first half i thought. The match ratings weren't that high, but these were entertaining.
El Generico vs. Kenny King 3.0 - The crowd was kinda dead for this. The crowd doesn't know how to react to this "dark" El generico.
Homicide vs. Andy Ridge 1.0 - This was bad. Probably one of the worst ROH matches i've seen live.
Briscoes + Daniels vs. Roddy, Elgin, Gowen 3.25 - The HOT team did alright, all things considered. Supposedly Gowen is an official HOT member and Elgin is trying to work his way in. Gowen kicked Elgin in the face, and daniels pinned gowen. The crowd was pretty dead for Elgin, as no one knew who he was. Gowen only lasted about 45 seconds in the ring before tagging out each time. I thought ROH should go for a familiar face with the ROH, but Gowen?? I guess they had their hands tied. perhaps MOTN
SOTF Finals.... Adam Cole vs. Rhett Titus vs. Kenny King vs. Kevin Steen vs. Claudio vs. One armed Eddie Edwards - 3.25-3.5
Steen was out within 3 seconds after a generico attack. The ALl night Express tried to work as a team. Claudio eliminated Steen, Cole and Titus...and Edwards re-injured his arm, went to the back, so it appeared we got Claudio vs. King as the final two guys. That was really for a few a mintues, then edwards came back out, King pinned Cluadio....and We now have Edwards vs. King. A few punches and head butts later Edwards makes King tap out to the single leg crab. PROBABLY match of the night, but Edwards not being able to move his arm hurt the match. It was kinda given that after Hero/Edwards. Edwards was scheduled to win.
Fun show, nothing all that great though.

I thought this was a pretty decent event. Steen was beating the piss out of O'Reilly. I will say, ROH has some good young talent like O'Reilly and Cole. I thought Grizzly put up a pretty decent match against Double C. Im with Montana about Ridge vs. Homicide. If ROH is going to push Ridge, they need find something different for him. I can't figure out why the hell you would advertise what's apparently your strongest body part in your nickname. Overall, your standard solid action from Ring of Honor. And with every show I've been to in the past, I'll pick up the dvd. If nothing else, I grabbed my stepdaughter the pink KOW shirt and was able to snag Sara Del Rey's autograph during intermission.
