Re: ROH announces Global Wars Espectacular tour with CMLL

Am I really? It's been a slow but steady retreat with Okada and Tanahashi barely coming back since 2017 and NJPW sending lesser and lesser stars for the ROH tours despite being treated like gods since day 1 (the biggest star they had this year was NAGATA and yes, I get that the G1 Supercard was a me...

Re: ROH announces Global Wars Espectacular tour with CMLL

So yeah, this ROH/NJPW relationship is pretty much dead at this point.

Re: Dave Scherer - "Overly long title"

Well it bombed horribly if that was the point, but I'm also one of the few who thought that the Cody/Allin match didn't work because it felt like Allin survived his own blown spots more than anything Cody did. ... because the moment Page beats Jericho... Page isn't winning the belt there though. Fra...

That would work... if you make him a heel. I mean, he would basically become what he despised the most in WWE : a part-timer. That could have some legs, but it's the same promotion that can't even do basic booking right, like don't have one of your top stars go twenty minutes against a lower midcard...

Bringing Punk feels like it could be a good idea to pop a rating, but a bad one in the long run. Sure, he's most likely the bigger name they could sign right now that is available, but he's almost 41 and has more than five years of ring rust at this point, and then you have the obvious motivation is...

Re: BRM Reviews AEW Fight for the Fallen (great, but warning signs are starting to show)

(Sorry, double post) Peter Avalon (w/ Leva Bates) vs. Sonny Kiss - *1/2 A bland, nothing match against two prelims. For a guy who takes shots at WWE constantly, Cody did the same bad "I'm looking away from the camera" promo everyone does in the Fed. Britt Baker and Riho vs. Shoko Nakajima ...

Re: BRM Reviews AEW Fight for the Fallen (great, but warning signs are starting to show)

The Janela thing here is most likely because Corny made fun of his ridiculous Twitter "drama" with Amore at a concert. While I don't agree with everything Cornette says, he's been dead-on since day one about a lot of problems AEW is/will be facing. I'm actually a bit surprised by how fast ...
