A Letter from the Baravado Brothers

Dear ROH Officials,

Over the last 7 months, We (Lancelot and Harlem) have had one of the best winning percentages of any team on the roster. We have even took it upon ourselves to issue open challenges when, due to your negligence and disregard for one of the best tag teams in the world, we were not booked for matches. In spite of our hard work and initiative, we somehow still have not been heard.

In a recent videowire, we pleaded our rightful cause that we deserve a chance to exact revenge on the loose cannon team of Adam Cole and Kyle O’Reilly at Best in the World, but somehow our pleas have fallen on deaf ears. Surely, you do not condone such cheap shots as pummeling a man who is unconscious. Nor would you argue with the numbers. With a win loss record of 6-1 since Only The Strong Survive in Charlotte, North Carolina, we are clearly due for matches with better competition. An argument could be made that we are even due for a Ring of Honor World Tag Team title shot, but unfortunately we have to leave that up to chance.With the Tag Team Lottery The New Combination of Caprice Coleman & Cedric Alexander could possibly get a shot before us after Richmond. Yet I digress.

My Grandmother feels that because of the volunteer work we do in our community, the extra time we put in to signing autographs for all the Bandwagon Members before and after shows, and the way we carry ourselves like the champions that we soon will be, we are the perfect candidates to be the faces of Ring of Honor’s Tag Team division as we embark on this new journey into television with Sinclair Broadcasting.

With all this being said, there should be no team receiving more opportunities than us. Yet, In New York City you have two teams who are not on par with us being awarded matches that are rightfully ours.

First you have Adam Cole and Kyle O’Reilly who in addition to having a tag team record of 3-7 since Allied Forces last year have demonstrated poor sportsmanship by not only attacking us at ROH Revolution: Canada after we simply invited them out to talk, but also attempted to end to Lancelot’s Career at Supercard of Honor. In addition upon recently viewing Gangland on the History channel with our grandmother, we suspect Adam Cole to be gang-affiliated because we have seen him in videowires and at arenas wearing bandanas. These are not the role models we and you want our children to be watching ROH on television in the coming months.

Then you have the team of Generation Me. Now, don’t get us wrong; Max and Jeremy are a great up and coming tag team. Every time we see these two perform, they show improvement and one day these kids are going to be stars, but everyone knows they decided to step away from the major leagues of the Ring of Honor Tag division to hone their craft in the minors. There is no shame in knowing your limits. Their last two appearances in Ring of Honor they lost to The American Wolves and the Kings of Wrestling. Again there is no shame in that, but how after that do they get invited to an event called “Best in the World”?

I do understand that these two teams are well matched due to their shortcomings, but maybe this would be better placed at the next Toronto show. Not the Hammerstein Ballroom. Not New York City. Not Best in the World. Instead, The Bravados deserve the opportunity to show the world why we are as good as our grandmother says we are.

Thank you for your time and hopefully this letter will give you some insight in to the error of your ways.

Sincerely, Leaders of the Ring of Honor Revolution Lancelot and Harlem Bravado

I love how ROH finds ways to get guys over outside of the ring WITHOUT WASTING IN RING TIME! The Bravados have been building more and more heat ever since their first promo. I BET they get involved (somehow) at BIW2011

This kind of stuff is AWESOME. Wouldnt take up air time because it's a wrestling show primarily not a talk show, builds character, again without taking away from air time. ROH needs to keep this sort of stuff going because it's brilliant.

Screw ring time, they're not wasting a single penny, they just got someone to fire up notepad and BOOM, they just won a bunch of fans. yet another place where the KISS Principle makes things better.
