The Chicago Ridge show sounds solid despite the problems with weather and therefore transport. I shall look forward to the Hero/Claudio match, Jacobs/Danielson, the 6 man tag and a couple of the others.

I've seen the PPV ladder match. It's pretty insane. It's a shame ROH has such god awful commentary or it would be a new favorite. El Generico is a fucking bump machine though.

Commentary doesn't harm it one bit for me. I've watched the match a few times already and I just won't get bored with it. The Doomsday Device spot is just lunacy though. Generico takes a pretty impressive bump in their 2/3 Falls match as well.

You can see why there not going to do another one, you'd pretty much have to kill yourself to top it. The package piledriver & J-Driller spots are especially nuts.

As far as Lo-Ki returning goes, the fan in me would like to see it, but I can't see it happening myself. He's messed ROH about too manytimes. If he did contact the company, Gabe should say, "if you want to come back, the first thing you'll do is put Roderick Strong over like you were supposed to!"Never say never in wrestling, but I'd be very suprised if he returned.

Hear, hear. Sounds like a pretty damn awesome show, I'm rather looking forward to getting the net back at home so I can do some downloading.

Brent Albright vs. Claudio Castagnoli - utterly dire opening match which seemingly went on forever. Albright does nothing for me, and this match wouldn

I have to say, I understand your hatred of Adam Pearce.The guy has no character and is shit in the ring. He's just all out shite.

Hear Hear!!!As I think I've said before, I really enjoyed Pearce's PWG run, but in ROH he's abysmal.

Which weekend of shows was better: 13/14th April (Morishima Tag/Morishima-McGuinness 1) or 27/28th April (Cabana Farewell Shows)? I only ask because I just completed the first one and found them to be a bit lacklustre meanwhile the second weekend is the last batch of DVD's I have to watch.
