THE END


Ring of Honor and New Japan Pro Wrestling present the Global Wars iPPV, live tonight at 7:30 PM EST. Last year, the ROH/NJPW joint shows ruled, and this year the shows already run have been every bit as good, if not better. So suffice to say, this is gonna be a hell of a show... provided the iPPV feed doesn't die. ROH's iPPV feeds have been notoriously spotty, so pray if you're the praying sort.

MATCHES ANNOUNCED SO FAR
THE MAIN EVENT
ROH ALL STARS (THE BRISCOES, RODERICK STRONG & WAR MACHINE)
vs.
THE BULLET CLUB (MACHINE GUN KARL ANDERSON, DOC GALLOWS, AJ STYLES & THE YOUNG BUCKS)

- THE KINGDOM (Michael Bennett & Matt Taven w/Maria Kanellis) vs. MATT SYDAL & JUSHIN THUDER LIGER (this is how ROH's website lists him, who am I to question?)
- CHRIS SABIN vs. KUSHIDA
- GEDO & MOOSE w/STOKELY HATHAWAY & VEDA SCOTT vs. WACKY TAKAAKI WATANABE & SILAS YOUNG
- ACH vs. SHINSUKE NAKAMURA
- THE ADDICTION vs. RPG VICE vs. THE DECADE vs. REDRAGON
- CEDRIC ALEXANDER vs. KAZUCHIKA OKADA
- MICHAEL ELGIN vs. HIROSHI TANAHASHI
- ROH WORLD TELEVISION CHAMPION JAY LETHAL w/TRUTH MARTINI vs. TETSAYU NAITO

What to expect: All the matches will be good or better. If the stream works, you will get more than your money's worth.

Buy the iPPV for only $20!

I'm glad I'll be at the show so I won't have to deal with a PPV fuckup even though something bad will probably happen at the arena

For those who got hosed on past PPVs, how hard was getting the refund? I'm mad cheap and don't want to feel like I got ripped off.

you have to hound them to get the refund. Asking for the first time gets the token "we're sorry for the problems but you get the show on demand whenever you want it!" response and usually have to send a couple more back and forth to finally get one

jerusalem you've ordered enough roh ippvs to know better. We'll see the first half of the show with no problems and once the big matches start the feed will be poo poo and then it will work flawlessly during the main event like always

Yeah, I remember the show where the iPPV kept going down during a Jay Briscoe shot at the title, on a show where we were all joking about how many times Jay has gone for the title and failed. Then the feed finally came back up to show.... Jay Briscoe celebrating having FINALLY won the title :doh:

yeah during jay's big title win the feed went out as the entire roh locker room came out to watch from ringside and came back to the entire briscoe family having a hoedown in the ring

Haha that's right, that's the one.

Anyway I fully expect this one to cut out during the main event, then come back to NJPW standing tall and the announcement being made that ROH has been purchased and they're taking over

I'm getting Chipotle. That way I can use it as a pillow to cry into when the stream fails right before the Rainmaker pose.

Watered down Japanese product surrounded by bland white poo poo? Sounds about right for this show.

Just kidding, Roddy is white and he's going to break every single back to my delight.
