Do you work for ROH?

Nope , sorry to disappoint, just a fan. My skills lie in The City of London as an HR Director. I don't see jumping to a wrestling promotion being part of my career trajectory unfortunately.

I was told that I could listen to ROH at a reasonable volume from nine to eleven, I told Bill that if Sandra is going to listen to her headphones while she's filing then I should be able to listen to the ROH while I'm collating so I don't see why I should have to turn down ROH because I enjoy listening at a reasonable volume from nine to eleven.

Welcome to my life! But without the plant, I don't get one of those......

While there was some optimism a few weeks ago, all talk of this Sunday's PPV has disappeared in a cloud of AEW.

Looks like a decent card, mind. Tickets have pretty much sold out for a decent sized venue too, and would imagine that a few surprise faces would turn up too.

 

 

Johnny Impact (c) vs. Brian Cage - Impact World Championship

Tessa Blanchard (c) vs. Taya Valkyrie with Gail Kim as the Special Guest Referee - Impact Knockouts Championship 

Jake Crist vs. Ethan Page vs. Rich Swann vs. Trey Miguel - Ultimate X match for the vacant Impact X Division Championship

The Latin American Xchange (Santana and Ortiz) (c) vs. The Lucha Bros (Rey Fenix and Pentagón Jr.) - Tag team match for the Impact World Tag Team Championship

Abyss vs. Eli Drake - Monster's Ball match

Eddie Edwards vs. Moose - Falls Count Anywhere Match

Sami Callihan vs. Willie Mack

[The King of Old School]

I can't believe that they are still wheeling out Abyss for "monsters ball matches".

[tiger_rick]

That was my immediate thought too. Abyss in 2019. Dear lord.

[Accident Prone]

I'll take a tenner on Abyss still finding a way to crotch himself on a chair. Happens every fucking time I watch him.

Looks like a fun card though. That Ultimate X match looks well weird.

[Syl]

Impact have put together a pretty decent hype video for Brian Cage and his title match at Homecoming. Wish that they'd concentrate on producing this type of stuff more! 

 

[Merzbow]

Is "The Lucha Bros" their actual tag name? Terrible if so, especially for a team with a guy who looks and acts like Penta.

[Love-Wilcox]

Luckily both guys are talented enough to get away with having a shit team name.

Cage/Impact should be a cracker, hopefully 2019 is Brian Cage’s breakout year.

[tiger_rick]

Is he going to win? Nothing worse than doing an incredible build for a guy who is going to lose anyway. Nowhere to go after that. Remember that job they did that time on the Marine fella only for him to come up short and never recover?

[The King of Old School]

They produced a series of vignettes for Bobby Roode prior to a Bound for Glory match with Kurt Angle once too, made him look like a huge deal, only to have him lose in about 10 minutes. Made him look a right chump.

He bloody loved those ducks.

I remember being utterly deflated after that match but in retrospect it lead to my favourite TNA thing ever which was Roodes heel turn a couple of weeks later.

Really looking forward to this now we’ve just checked into the hotel ready for an early morning flight via Toronto the build up has been really well done we don’t have any tickets for the nwa show tomorrow night but we are hoping to get accross for it jet lag permitting all in all it should be a fun few days I think we can expect a few surprises at homecoming I’m expecting rosemary to return hopefully cage will get the belt from impact 

mondays tv taping will be the last ever wrestling show at the asylum the building and a few round about are being knocked down soon for a new sports complex Wich is to include a new Nashville mls franchise stadium thankfully a new event centre is going to be part of the complex so hopefully wrestling will still have a future in the area
