There weren't two people called in House called House. We’ve had two Dr. Mark Sloans, though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Infinity Land Posted December 17, 2022 Share Posted December 17, 2022 I don't think this much of a sign of the future. However, I did like the first half of the year where many of the ROH champions were the travelling world champion to make defenses. Same with PAC's reign with the All-Atlantic title.

Infinity Land Posted January 12, 2023 Share Posted January 12, 2023 Supercard of Honor is happening WrestleMania weekend on Friday 31st March. I didn't see this promo'd during Dynamite. So they're at least trying to keep ROH-AEW somewhat separate. Although i'm sure we'll see some stuff sprinkled in closer to the time.

Guest Posted January 12, 2023 Share Posted January 12, 2023 I like the implied "also" at the beginning of their second sentence. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
METAL ON METAL Posted January 12, 2023 Share Posted January 12, 2023 Didn’t Khan say he wasn’t going to be doing events during Wrestlemania weekend and that it only occurred last year as it was booked prior to his purchase of the company?

It's a Wrestlemania weekend tradition, and a big part of it for many who attend Mania weekend. I think it would be very hard for Tony to deviate from the tradition, as it's so engrained within the weekend festivities.

Mania events were more about when AEW was starting up. Think they did their one and only house show at this point during the pandemic era as a way to make up for money talent would otherwise be losing out on due to fewer indy bookings/signings. In the press conference after Supercard last year he was asked about ROH still running shows on Mania weekend since it has been a tradition for a lot of fans. He softened on the idea while dealing with the question. PPV buys, ticket sales, and having run it before i'm guessing he sees the value in continuing it for ROH.

Guest Posted January 12, 2023 Share Posted January 12, 2023 Everyone knows ROH is lesser than to run it on the back of mania. Keeping aew away is good as they are big enough just now that they don’t have to ride on anyone’s coattails for now Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Infinity Land Posted February 24, 2023 Share Posted February 24, 2023 The first set of tapings are this weekend. Saturday and Sunday at Universal with a AEW Dark taping sandwiched in between. Because of that I doubt they'll change up the look people have come to know from the Dark tapings. As well as the lacklustre studio crowd that goes with it. Show on HonorClub starts airing from Thursday 2nd March. Just confirmed the timeslot will be 7pm EST supposedly to avoid Impact and NFL once that starts. If true they're trying to avoid conflict, that would mean a 1hr run time. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RIDDUM_N_STYLE Posted February 24, 2023 Share Posted February 24, 2023 Guessing by the time the tapings are done, we’ll know how the Supercard of Honor card will look for Wrestlemania weekend Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Infinity Land Posted February 26, 2023 Share Posted February 26, 2023 (edited) They did spruce it up a bit.  All the champions appeared, and there's a mix of some debuts. Match listings without results below. Most of it reads like Dark but at least with this it's going somewhere.

Merzbow Posted February 26, 2023 Share Posted February 26, 2023 There's one very interesting name in there, a certain rematch I've wanted to see since 2008 might finally happen. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Infinity Land Posted February 27, 2023 Share Posted February 27, 2023 Supercard looks to be taking shape. Expected title matches below: Spoiler World Title: Claudio v. Eddie Kingston TV Title: Samoe Joe v. Mark Briscoe Women's World Title: Athena v. Yuka Sakazaki Pure Title: Wheeler Yuta v. Shibata 6-Man Titles: The Embassy v. AR Fox, Blake Christian, Gran Metalik  Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Infinity Land Posted March 3, 2023 Share Posted March 3, 2023 I believe they supersized the debut episode to 2+ hours. As its streaming without ad breaks it might as well be RAW. Felt like a mistake as it really began to drag as time went on. A lot of it felt could have been cut as it was more like Dark filler. An obvious one like Rayne & Skye Blue v. The Renegades. The Embassy could have just ran a video package instead of just another random squash. Next week is being promoted as 5 matches announced. That'll help cut it down. Overall a good show. Wrestling is a given. Looked great, tried the occasional different camera moves. Crowd held up quite well. People you usually don't see getting to cut some promos both backstage and in the ring. Certainly an improvement over Dark/Elevation. Which isn't exactly saying much. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
