Common tactic to get people to stay. At best it's a play at showing they really do care about keeping you, at worst it's easily used to lambast you to your audience ("look at this ungrateful guy, we gave him the belt and he still walked")

Yeah, TNA did that with AJ as well didn't they? TNA also put the title on Jeff Hardy whenever it came time for contract renewals.

Preying on dudes being marks for themselves is fundamental to the wrestling business.

I guess this is why reporters would generally try and get confirmation from multiple sources rather than just running with whatever people say

But pro wrestling is dumb so I'd much rather people just post whatever crazy things somewhat reputable sources give them

Yeah I'm not sure how ROH making Kyle the only dude to not defend the title translates to him re-signing with the company, but hey maybe Kyle is a big dum dum

Got tickets to the Toronto War of the Worlds show. It's a Sunday so I assume it's a tv taping. Either way hopefully I get to see some awesome NJPW guys. I'll have to start watching some ROH to see who I need to pay attention to, outside of my main man Dalton Castle and Will Ospreay

Yeah it's gotta be hard for a high level indy like ROH these days, having cool matches just isn't enough. I feel like there's almost too much good wrestling out there, I can't keep up

I will say that ROH frantically reached out to me to complete some paperwork from the time years ago when I did work for them. Seemed a little out of the blue, but maybe if they're looking to get their ducks in a row...

I don't really understand what Cody adds to a company like ROH. He's not really good and he doesn't really have any buzz around him. And he's probably more expensive than other dudes at that level.

War of the Worlds was fun. The Elite was absurdly over, really fun main event. I felt bad for Naito having to work with The Kingdom, there was some sloppy poo poo that one of the best workers in the world shouldn't have to deal with.

Tanahashi split on the meet and greet early even though a whole bunch of people had already paid for his autograph. Including me. I was next in line when he ran off. He came back after people complained, and he was great and the Ace and all that. Don't blame him at all. But man, this felt like a real rinky dink operation. I'm done giving wrestling fascists money unless they bring in Hiromu or Micro Man.

In Toronto they vastly oversold autograph tickets, so people were still waiting in line for Kenny while missing the first 2 or 3 matches.

Between that and the Jericho/Owens autograph signing I went to, I am pretty soured on pro wrestling signings. They're mismanaged cash grabs.

Edit: was that the least populated PPV thread PSP has seen in a while? I guess if TNA had show threads they would be similar
