The Greatest ROH Champion ever, at a time that he had become the best wrestler in the world (as Clamdigger Danielson plummeted down the rankings)

did anybody watch the ppv

I planned to but last minute plans got in the way, unfortunately.

I used to get every ROH PPV until their iPPV streaming got so bad that I just gave up in frustration, and I've largely fallen out of touch with the promotion since. That's a shame, because I've seen some really great shows and some excellent characters/wrestlers in ROH but they just seemed to lose all momentum for me a few years back.

Nick Searcy being on ROH was already a mindfuck, watching him heel it up and catch a beating was incredible.

Assuming it actually has the archives, this might be a must-sub for me

Sad to say that I'm still reluctant to give ROH money for anything involving streaming, since they used to botch their iPPVs so spectacularly to the point that I just gave up on watching them.

Is that a free or paid service? I went to the website and it offers a paid "plus" option but I don't know if that means there are selected shows free or just highlights packages to advertise the actual shows?

11pm Wednesday isn't a bad time to watch, especially now that LU is gone for awhile and NXT is on at 8.

Is Dalton wearing Cody's stupid ring?

I think the ring is a pretty cool idea but it's also pretty obviously a heel thing so short of Dalton wearing it to look pretty which in turn frustrates Cody, I don't see them doing much with it.

Sinclair are pieces of poo poo, make no mistake, and should be called out on the crap they pull, but please take discussion of their involvement in politics to relevant threads in D&D unless it actually starts being reflected in actual ROH programming.

I just had a flashback to Julius Smokes screaming,"TRANSFORM! TRANSFORM!" at Jigsaw to convince him to take his mask off. I'm still sad that the very second Jigsaw did, Smokes didn't go,"Actually you know what nevermind..."

Age of the Fall loving ruled and that night they beat the Briscoes and then left their screaming music playing for like 10 minutes so the crowd couldn't give the Briscoes an ovation to make them feel better was world class heeling :discourse:

I really was unsure whether to go with ROH or NXT as both shows look great on paper (and a pretty good UFC too) but then fate intervened and now I won't be able to see any of them, which I guess means all three shows are going to be the greatest thing anybody will ever get to see live in the history of the universe. So you have me to thank for that! :)

I used to love ROH but I basically gave up on it after they had a string of shows where their streaming just completely poo poo the bed and I got to see barely any of the shows I paid for live.

I'm sure they've fixed things since then, but once I stop watching something regularly it's very easy to just stop entirely. Lucha Underground has the same issue for me, though of course ROH is actually doing really good numbers while LU is just lurching towards a slow and drawn out death.
