Any time I see that Rhett Titus is still wrestling I’m surprised that Rhett Titus is still wrestling. I don’t know if it’s a badge of honor (lol) to brag about spending your entire career in ROH.

Also, he is just painful to look at. He’s so trim and tan and jacked that he looks like he’s going to burst at any moment.

Even funnier was when his partner said “yeah, well I’ve been working my entire career just to get to ROH!”

RoH Honor Club Honor thoughts:

PROS:
- Good wrestling
- Reasonable price since you also get the back catalogue, which appears to be extensive
- Picture quality is good, if not spectacular

CONS:
- No Android TV app
- Even sideloaded, the Android app doesn't actually work on Android TV (or at least not on my nVidia Shield)
- Android and IOS apps aren't available in Finland meaning I have to cast from my janky-rear end laptop
- The website is also kinda janky, discoverability is not great meaning exploring the back catalogue is a bit of a pain

I'm probably in for as long as this keeps going because I love good wrestling but it feels like there's a lot of work on the technical side of things to do, because the experience isn't as great as you'd like for 2023.

E: I also had some reservations about them shooting this in the same cave as the do AEW Dark because good lord those crowds are AWFUL, but it seems the RoH name actually lured in people who care about wrestling and are into it and make noise.

Really? I guess it's just region locked as well. I'll have to check out if I can find an APK of that, because it would immediately eliminate about 3/4 of my complaints.

:jerkbag:

The crowd is actually really into it live, for some reason they turn the volume way down on the broadcast. They don’t just pluck randos from citywalk, you have to be a huge wrestling nerd to even know that this event exists.

Me too! It’s just called Ring of Honor though and not Honor club if that helps.

My big gripe for the app is having to type in my email and password on multiple TVs. Gimme a QR code, Tony!

The website is terrible, took way too long to find the new episode.

Hopefully they can take this on the road for tapings, I'd love to go to one and Im definitely not going to Florida

I watched the show on my nVidia Shield and got the app through the play store gimmick on there, no sideloading needed.

Yeah I would too if the app was available in my region but for some bizarre reason it's not, despite being able to sub to Honor Club perfectly fine without a VPN or anything.

A smile better suits a hero



I watched the show on the Android app and then watched the main event on my computer and it remembered exactly where I left off, which I was not expecting. My big complaint with it now, having not messed around with the back catalogue yet, is that the player needs fast-forward and reverse capabilities because what the fucks is up with that?

It needs a no commentary option. I'm enjoying the shows but listening to commentary from a time before people knew THAT CONSTANT SHOUTING DOESN'T MAKE EVERYTHING BETTER is quite draining.

Whoever was in charge of audio on indie-era ROH shows was in way over their head. It was a shock when years later I heard what Lenny Leonard sounds like NOT completely blown out and distorted.

It’s like they did the commentary yelling through those tiny ASMR mics.

Commentary was done in a living room watching the show back in late night marathon sessions so you can imagine what equipment they were using.

Finally finished watching the first ROH ep. I hope they go to 1 hour from now on, 2 hours is a lot for me to fit in over the weekends especially when there's New Japan shows

- ZSJ is the absolute best and I love him so much

- Soup is really good at being expressive without even speaking

- Josh Woods is a lowkey great, I hope he gets to be a big part of ROH going forward

- Rhett Titus has far too many teeth than a human should have. It's like he's been drawn by an AI

- Lady Frost has literally got the most gorgeous moonsault I've ever seen. That was ridiculously smooth.

- Athena/Willow gonna own

- Claudio is a loving jerk. Eddie was right

Yeah I think 2 hours was too much. Agree with all your points
