I must be tired. I looked at this post on the ROH forum and I was about to click back without even posting it here. It was too long of a day to read poo poo like this, but, this... this is ROHbot.txtln586856 posted:

He raises a good point, though, why take on a new job with the dominant global force in your chosen profession where you will get the chance to work a safer style and perhaps capture enough attention at that national level to gain the chance to make a tremendous amount of money and be seen by more people in a week than you could hope to in a year otherwise? I mean, that's just selling out!

The worst thing ROHbots do isn't  , it's THE E.Also that guy is great because he's acting like Danielson and Nigel just got to the main event after meandering around in the midcard since 2002. Danielson was a goddamn main eventer from DAY ONE.

I want to go to bed, but... more awesome.justinsane posted:They have on the main page of their site how great it is Nigel and Dragon are leaving to go to WWE. Are they serious? Yeah I know were all happy for them to make six figures and everything but this is so lame. It seems like they are hand delivering them to Vince. I thought ROH wanted to compete with them and ROH is what wrestling fans wants to see. Edit: I should also say that the vast majority of replies are mocking these people. Here is one: quote:So we should "protect" from the millions he could make in the WWE? You're being selfish. Grow up. Also it's not like the WWE is stealing these guys. I bet you anything if you asked them what there dreams were when they were kids it was to be in the WWE, wrestle in Madison Square Garden, headline Wrestlemania. If it was up to you they would never have a chance to do these things.

Are there people out there who honestly think that ROH wants to actively go into toe to toe competition with WWE at this current time? REALLY!?!

Almost every complaint I've seen about ROH being "raided" mentions "going the ECW route" and it's so stupid. "I thought ROH was supposed to be innovative! Why won't they copy this promotion that died 8 years ago?!"

As much as I like to mock the DOI for being a lovely shady website with more agendas than the average government agency, it should be noted they do always report the big stories.Declaration of Independents posted:In other news that might interest ROH fans, everyone knows how popular facebook is and how that is all the rage, so take this for what it is, but Rob Feinstein & Gabe Sapolsky, (not going to recap that history, if you're reading this, then you know) are "friends" on facebook and I have been told by many teenagers that this is a major thing.

What I like is the fact that he makes it seem like Danielson and Nigel just came in and started getting good, just for the WWE to swoop on in like a life sucking monster a pay them off like the sell outs they are.

Some dumbass mark on the ROH forums posted:Tyler, bro, if your out there please don't sell out. Has Vince even expressed interest in Tyler yet? Guy can't promo for poo poo. I'm a little concerned that AmDrag and Nigel will languish in FCW for months and then get jobbed on WWE TV for a cup of coffee before getting poo poo-canned, but they've certainly earned their chance at the big time and I hope they both knock it out of the park. Hell, I might start watching WWE regularly again if they keep signing people I give a poo poo about.

Hey, what else are they going to do when they're trying to woo the barista at Starbucks? Seriously though, thank god people there are smart enough to tell this guy he is a selfish retard. It's like...what the gently caress else could these two do in ROH? They've ascended to the top of the mountain. Dragon's been on the top for years.

Punk was in for roughly a year, Hart Dynasty were there for what seemed like an eternity. Smith was even called up just so he could be suspended so WWE could prove their Wellness program was "real".

BigRed0427 posted:Isn't it the norm for new talent to go through FCW for at least a year before going on TV? Yeah, which is fine when the talent in question is some lunkhead with no prior wrestling experience who got hired because of his body. But guys like Nigel and Danielson have been wrestling long enough that I don't think developmental would teach them anything they couldn't pick up on their own.

Here's another funny one (this come to you from gerweck.net):quote:RAW was horrible last night. What happened? Why wasn't there a divas match? Mickie, Alicia, Gail and Beth were not even on the program? I was expecting a Barker's Beauties match or something. Where were The Miz, Carlito and Jack Swagger? Why were they not on the show? An Evan Bourne match without the Shooting Star Press?!? WHY DIDN”T WWE ANNOUNCE A DIVAS TITLE MATCH FOR THE PPV ON THE SHOW? WWE NEEDS TO BOOK MICKE VS GAIL VS BETH. I would order the PPV to see that match. Why did they waste 30 minutes, (it seemed like between 10:10 and 10:40 there was nothing but sit down interviews with Bob Barker or lame comedy skits? They could have added a match with anyone the people I mentioned in that lost time. The Price is RAW is the worst RAW I have seen in years. I highlighted the only valid point in this diatribe but seriously, HE ACTUALLY WANTS TO SEE A DIVAS MATCH?

Learning the WWE style is different though. Learning how to have an effective match in a 3-9 minute time period is pretty important in the WWE. They're gonna likely need to learn how to adapt to the new style.

Dragon learned that in Memphis when he had a developmental contract before, and I think Nigel spent time in Heartland Wrestling, so I think he'll be okay too. I agree that knowing how to work a good TV match is important, but I'm also saying that they probably know how to do that already.
