Paid Members Dearly Devoted Dexter Posted March 26, 2012 Paid Members Share Posted March 26, 2012 (edited) There's a number of problems atm. Delirious hasn't cut it as booker, the emergence of DGUSA and Gabe/Cary's fragile egos means indie talent has to pick one or the other. ROH's roster is ludicrously stale, and they can't bring in guys like Taylor/Gargano etc to give things a kick up the arse.

Adam Cole vs. Michael Elgin  2. Rise & Prove Tag Team Tournament- Match #1: Shiloh Jones & Rudy Switchblade vs. Sean Casey & Chris Silvio  3. Rise & Prove Tag Team Tournament- Match #2: Shane Haste & Mikey Nicholls vs. Alabama Attitude  4. No Holds Barred Match: Eddie Edwards vs. Roderick Strong  5. Mike Mondo vs. Samson Walker  6. Rise & Prove Tag Team Tournament- Finals: Winners Match #1 vs. Winners Match #2  7. Proving Ground Match: World TV Champion Jay Lethal vs. BJ Whitmer  8. World Tag Team Title Match: Jay & Mark Briscoe vs. Davey Richards & Kyle O'Reilly  Disc 2- ROH Underground- Norfolk, VA 1/21/12  1. Kenny King vs. Andy "Right Leg" Ridge  2. "The Prodigy" Mike Bennett vs. Grizzly Redwood  3. Adam Cole vs. Kevin Steen  4. World Tag Team Title Match: Jay & Mark Briscoe vs. Caprice Coleman & Cedric Alexander  5. Wrestling's Greatest Tag Team vs. Team A1  6. Proving Ground Match: World TV Champion Jay Lethal vs. Tommaso Ciampa  7. Winning Team Gets A World Tag Team Title Shot: Davey Richards & Kyle O'Reilly vs. Roderick Strong & Michael Elgin  Too add whats been said earlier, As much as i still love ROH the main problem is the roster, Taking nothing away from some of the awesome talent they have. It doesn't have the strength in depth that it used to have. Back in the day when CM Punk left there was aload of guys ready to step up. Now if Roddy/Edwards/Richards/Steen left who is there step up apart from El Generico who isn't even signed! One day i just wish they could build bridges with Gabe and Dragon Gate again but its not going to happen. Gabe did get burned out, It was far from perfect but it was better then this.

Paid Members Dearly Devoted Dexter Posted March 27, 2012 Paid Members Share Posted March 27, 2012 (edited) Another famous ROH production gaffe:  They do make themselves look bush league sometimes  Gabe did get burned out, It was far from perfect but it was better then this.  And that was Cary's fault - it was he who insisted on running a stupid amount of shows. I think history will show his involvement in ROH has been a mixed blessing - yes, he bailed them out when it looked like they were going out of business, but his interference on the creative side has fucked the product on a few occasions Edited March 27, 2012 by Dearly Devoted Dexter Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paid Members IANdrewDiceClay Posted March 31, 2012 Paid Members Share Posted March 31, 2012 (edited) If anyone has any plans to download the ROH iPPV, I suggest you wait until the replay and get your links from there. It was appearently unwatchable. Lance Storm was saying cups were a thrown backstage due to how bad the show was coming across via live stream. Did anyone watch it? How bad was the quality? Was it as bad as people are saying? Â I heard Steen vs Generico is really good, though. I like Steen. Could do with a new outfit, though.

From what people are saying the commentary was between 10 & 30 seconds ahead of the action...... Its a shame really as it was supposed to be a pretty decent show Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Apparently all the sound issues have been resolved but the replay is/was (not sure if this has been sorted yet) cutting out during the the Generico/Steen match.  So far they are not exactly doing themselves any favours this weekend Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Paid Members Dearly Devoted Dexter Posted March 31, 2012 Paid Members Share Posted March 31, 2012 Clearly this is all leading to some kind of eating contest between Steen and Cornette at the Heart Attack Grill. Not sure who would win; Steen is younger, but Cornette has the experience advantage Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
