good news Ultimo Guerrero is challenging for the title for some godforsaken reason but maybe he can take the belt to a better promotion where it'll be cared for even more

With both WWN and NXT essentially cutting them off from talent lines and that's really hit ROH hard. The new faces they have aren't loud enough on the indies to really turn heads. What's weird is that many of the top guys are mainstays in NJPW but the crossover doesn't carry as much. You get people that watch the big shows but don't stick with the TV product. This is a shift from when Japanese wrestling was harder to come by.

did WWN cut off ROH, or was that in response to ROH cutting off FloSlam

To whoever in ROH who thought that booking Crystal Palace sport centre was a good idea, please tell me why it was a good idea to put a couple hundred people on a hot day in late May NEXT TO AN INDOOR SWIMMING POOL WITH NO AIR CON. loving hell, show was enjoyable but everyone was wilting before the meet and greet finished.

I've got a dispatch from the Sinclair Broadcasting news offices and it reads "Because gently caress you"

what did ROH do to piss off WWE so badly? It seems like as soon as ROH started doing 2k+ gates WWE started loving with them. The NXT launch, the talent lockouts and now cockblocking MSG(a building that WWE doesn't even love that much other than the McMahon statue).

Just for fun I looked at an ROH card I went to in March 2014 in Dayton and the guys on that show who are gone now include:

AJ Styles
Chris Hero
Adam Cole
Mike Bennett
Tommaso Ciampa
Bobby Fish
Kyle O'Reilly
Kevin Steen
Michael Elgin
Cedric Alexander
Roderick Strong
ACH
Moose


Goddamn their roster is bad now.

but they have Cody and a dude in a bear suit and Shane Helms

Also they had and lost Keith Lee and completely botched that relationship

Don't worry, I'm sure Punishment Martinez will be the next breakout star they're looking for

please do not disparage the current ROH TV Champion who lost to ROH Top Prospect Lio Rush in the second round in the tournament that saw the runner up top ROH prospect retire after a 15+ year career

if you actually want to slam roh for passing off old guys as young heres the forgotten third member of legacy "manu" working a future of honor match last week against a man who has to be 40 years old named "j-rocc"

tbh I found it funny because I was at a Chaotic Wrestling show on Fury's retirement tour later that year and that had his second to last match and I remembered the Top Prospect tournament after it

Probably the sweetheart deal, yeah. Not a whole lot runs at EagleBank Arena, so they'll probably take whatever they can get. Like, there's exactly three events in June and July including the ROH show.

its amazing that not a lot runs in the summer at a college campus arena

it's like if most of their market isnt there for some reason

Cold as in setting attendance records all the time, they are freezing!

Record breaking crowds aren't always a sign of a good product, look at WWE or post mid 98 WCW

As it stands right now the biggest things getting people to watch and pay attention to their shows are a free youtube series and being able to showcase New Japan or CMLL talent.

their ability to kill interest in their world title in just 3 short years is astounding

Their last PPV was pretty much all ROH contracted guys and did great business.

you mean the PPV where the top 3 matches all had Bullet Club heels, the fourth one down (the first with no Bullet Club) had KUSHIDA, and the opener had LIJ

oh and the other two men's matches had Austin Aries and Bully Ray

The company is hotter than it has ever been, the negativity is astounding. Sorry they are putting on a product no one wants to see but that is what makes money in the US right now.
