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

I still have no idea what they saw in Shane Taylor outside of "guy we need to get Keith Lee on our roster"

ROH and WWE have prior form.

Remember the contract tampering situation two years ago too.

But yeah it is ROH vs WWE, MSG vs WWE and MSG vs Barclays Center.

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"

The whole idea of Kyle to WWE is laughable for a number of reasons. Kyle plays this game every week year with ROH. People have jump the gun on this like they did with Hero.

Kevin Kelly is not even 100% gone. He just left his office job due to the added stress of doing commentary for New Japan. He'll still be doing announcing work as freelancer. Just more ammo ROH haters are trying to use against the company. Even if he was gone it's no big deal.

Btw, War Machine are booked on the Honor Rising shows, but wait they are headed to WWE.

Looks like Fish was just in for a one and done jobber role, similar to Danny Burch.

I'll call it right now. Between now and June 10th we'll hear about Adam Cole booking more dates past June 10th. Between the June 5th and June 10th we'll hear that all the other ROH names have once again been told you guys will have to wait at least 30-60 more days.

Roque11 posted:

This likely explains why all these wrestlers have been leaving ROH. They don' t want to go to WWE. They've heard rumblings of talks so they're all jumping off before they would end up getting tied down to WWE in a sale.

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

There's a PPV next Friday

Best in the World

The Kingdom defend the trios titles vs LIJ (EVIL, SANADA, BUSHI)
Adam Page vs Punishment Martinez
KUSHIDA vs Jay Lethal
Briscoes defend tag titles vs Young Bucks
Bully Ray vs Flip Gordon
Austin Aries vs Kenny King
Dalton Castle defends the world title against Cody and Marty Scurll in a triple threat


Possibly main card? For once? The male roster might actually be depleted enough this can happen?

Apparently, like what usually happens, that's not really what Dave said or at the very least wasn't saying it was in any way likely.

Also wouldn't Sinclair then incur the wrath of Fox proper and, quite possibly Disney by proxy the way things are going?

Disney's deal is for the movie division, FX and regional sports networks. FOX, FOX News, FS1 and FS2 aren't part of the Disney deal.

But yes, they would incur the wrath of FOX proper by doing that and could risk losing affiliations if they were dumb enough to carry that out.

Ignoring all other reasons why they won't do it; it's 15 months till Smackdown starts on FOX. It's the sort of thing you might threaten in the moment, in no way is it something you actually carry out after over a year to calm down.

Especially when Dave was responding to one of those weird, theoretical mailbag questions like "Could PWG do a show at Madison Square Garden?" Then Dave spends five minutes saying basically, "we'll, it's not illegal or anything, but they obviously won't", and that's translated into "PWG could run BOLA at MSG" by Rajah.

Flip Gordon did a dumb springboard straight into a dick kick so 10/10

Kind of shocked none of the belts changed hands though, it really felt like time for Dalton to lose

The guy recapping for WO/F4W live had a point: ROH might just be waiting for Cody to lose to Kenny before he wins the title, that way the ROH champ's not jobbing to the IWGP champ again.
