fourth and nine
That show was so much fun. Okada looked like he was having a great time. Dalton Castle was great. And the crowd just went insane for The Elite. TV taping tomorrow should be fun too.

Suck it
Two tears in a bucket
And then another thing
I'm not the one they'll try their luck with
Hit hard like brass knuckles
See your face through the turnbuckle dude
I got no love for you

Terrible show in the big picture to be honest. Elgin made a real smart promotional jump from ROH to New Japan.

The main event and the Bucks match ruled no doubt.

Agreed, midcarders in RoH losing to upper mid card types in NJPW has destroyed the promotion's credibility, and established them as pathetic losers in comparison

Anytime I need to see your face I just close my eyes
And I am taken to a place
Where your crystal minds and magenta feelings
Take up shelter in the base of my spine
Sweet like a chica cherry cola

Others have said online now so I can't get in trouble. Adam Cole was going to win the title two weeks ago for sure.

Let's get this wrestling!
I thought this was a really fun show, even if the crowd was dead for lots of it. Looking forward, though, I feel like Lethal is out of credible challengers. Some of it is sort of on ROH's failure to elevate mid-carders. They've done a good job with Kyle O'Reilly, but there are a bunch of guys underneath (ACH, Cedric Alexander, Moose and Matt Sydal come to immediately mind) who could probably be PPV title challengers right now if they'd been given a bit of a push these past few months. Also, I was pretty into the Fish/Roddy feud, and I'm bummed it was preempted by Roddy dropping the belt to Ishii, a dude who has very good matches but whom I don't really personally connect with.

Yeah, I kind feel the same way.

I forgot that Elgin wrestled him at Wrestle Kingdom 9, so dunno if that rematch is in the cards.

Lethal beat the Briscoes pretty decisively, beat Roddy, beat AJ, beat Fish decisively, beaten O'Reilly twice now, beaten Cole, beaten Elgin. He's not getting Nakamura, I don't see New Japan offering up Tanahashi or Okada or even Omega.

Trying to think of someone else they could slide in as a challenger before Global Wars.

Luckily ROH having their midcarders lose to NJPW guys has nothing to do with this

So why'd they get cold feet? Is it because of whatever personal issue made him pull out of the Honor Rising tour at the last minute?
