Does anyone happen to know if it's still possible to get a ticket to Best in The World from other sources?

Side story, I just bought a ticket to the TV tapings the next night and just realized I can't go.

I've been watching StubHub since I want to upgrade from General Audience, but I've only seen like two tickets show up in the last couple weeks, and they were both GA :smith:

I don't get how Lethal's time in TNA could make you not like him because it produced the best promo in wrestling history: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hVU0MW-IGrM The feud with Flair made up for all the other questionable decisions.

I didn't watch much TNA because it gave me horrible WCW 2000 flashbacks, but between this promo and Jay Lethal's ROH TV title defense against Kyle O'Reilly, he's quickly becoming one of my favorites.

Lethal's great but O'Reilly has awesome matches with basically everybody.

Because he's the best.

I miss you, Kyle.

For some reason an O'Reilly-ACH match from a PWG show maybe two years ago is one of the first that pops to my mind as one of the best matches of the last few years, even though literally no one else on earth probably ever even thinks of it.

I absolutely know the match you're talking about, it was from BOLA 2013 (so it was almost exactly two years ago) and was probably the best match of the tournament.

I haven't watched Lethal do anything since I still watched TNA but I'm gonna be at BITW and I'm very excited to see him in a world title match

That's right I'm going to a major ROH pay per view and I don't even watch it :smugdog:

Jay's good on the mic. Mark's more interesting and funny, but he's also more of a midcard guy as a singles as opposed to dominant face champ. Not saying much I know given the rest of them but he's the best promo out of any of the ROH world champs during the time I've followed them (2010-now) other than Steen.

Yeah, Mark's promos get me laughing because he's an excited hillbilly goober, but Jay really gets me to buy into what he's saying. He comes off as more serious.

if I had a dollar for every time Mark said "Sussex County Chicken" last night I could replace everyone's rovertars with Mobvatars

The promos have come a long way from HEY gently caress YOU gently caress MAN MAN UP FUCKIN MAN UP HEY KINGS OF gently caress WRESTLING MAN UP gently caress CHRIS HERO gently caress
