Paid Members GlennCullen Posted January 26, 2008 Paid Members Share Posted January 26, 2008 Ok so I'm going to be in NY for a week from the 13th and I am thinking about going over to Philly for the PPV. Realistically, how easy is it to get there? Also, ROH have a TBD Northeastern date penciled in for the night before. I'm guessing it won't be NY as the 6th anniversary show would have just taken place but what is the likelihood of a NJ show? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It says that you missed the bus by ten minutes or so, was that unavoidable? Ideally Id like to be able to get back into NYC after the show.

Jun Kasai Posted January 28, 2008 Share Posted January 28, 2008 (edited) Awesome to hear its Kota thats coming in January 28th: We are very pleased to announce that Kota Ibushi from the DDT promotion in Japan will come to ROH for a very special one week stay. Ibushi will wrestle on 4/11 in Boston, 4/12 in Edison, 4/18 in Detroit and 4/19 in Chicago. ROH officials were blown away when they saw Ibushi live at NOAH's 7/15 Budokan Hall event. Efforts were made since that time to bring Ibushi to ROH and now he will make a very special one week only appearance in April. Ibushi will face main event quality opponents on all four nights. His opponents will be announced in the upcoming weeks.This is what I'd like to see4/11 vs. El Generico4/12 vs. Roderick 4/18 vs. Danielson4/19 vs. Claudio (With how Claudio works with smaller guys this has to almost a cert to happen at some point and its somewhat of a dream match for me) Edited January 28, 2008 by Jun Kasai Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paid Members Dearly Devoted Dexter Posted January 29, 2008 Paid Members Share Posted January 29, 2008 - Ring of Honor has been making significant financial cutbacks over the last week. Basically expenses have gotten too high, and the company will be cutting back on the number of performers per show and fly-ins. Some of the regulars will be missing shows on a rotation while major stars like Bryan Danielson, Austin Aries and ROH Champion Nigel McGuinness will be out the dates that they are booked in Japan. - Another cut back is that Daniel Puder will no longer be used, at least for now. Part of it is the cost of his west coast fly-in, and that his ring work isn't at the level ROH feels it needs to be at for him to headline. Gabe Sapolsky is high on him though, and feels he has a star aura about him.- The idea of moving to PPV was to help get the ROH name out more, increase attendance and DVD sales. That has not happened as of yet.- Chris Hero has suffered an MCL tear, but will work through the injury with a knee brace.This taken from the ROH Message Board, who in turn got it from the Observer. Hmmm, what to make of it? It was pretty obvious the PPV's were tanking from the fact that ROH refused to release the buyrates. Realistically I think the only way they're going to expand awareness of the product is through TV. The bad thing about the scaling down of talent is that I suspect useless tossers like Whitmer and Pearce will keep their spots while decent wrestlers get junked, even if it is only for 50% of shows. You also have to wonder if this all stems from that bloody Cow Palace show. Not the best way to start the year, but there you go. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Space Flying Tiger Drop Posted January 29, 2008 Share Posted January 29, 2008 Well if they didn't book 10 match card's which generally have about 2/3 multiman matches within them I doubt they'd have this problem. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Space Flying Tiger Drop Posted January 29, 2008 Share Posted January 29, 2008 Well it would make the shows fucking easier to watch. Honestly who wants to watch a 10 match card on a dvd let alone live. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
