roh is good, there is just a lack of buzz because of a lack of exciting feuds and matchups. the shows are Not Bad. i think if they want to freshen things up roster wise and make it feel wide open, they should get rid of the television title. having one singles championship as the focus would help increase the value of singles feuds since they will all be tiered from the championship level down, and it will help increase the number of potential championship matches that you really can't have with that artificial stepping stone of a midcard title. if the tv championship were as protected and treated as strongly as it was during its first couple years, then this argument wouldn't really be as big of a deal, but i mean its been an easily forgotten belt since jay lethal lost it. their tag division i think is also really strong but is being hampered by the existence of the 6 man belts along with their regular tag titles being featured mid-low on the card (when it very well could be main event level). they currently have access to KES, Briscoes, Young Bucks, MCMG, War Machine, Silas Young and Beer City Bruiser (they are not amazing wrestlers but they are great unique characters and that does matter.), once lucha underground is dead there will be more possible teams they can craft that can help bolster the division. they should also stop running off good black wrestlers. that will help them in their growth. i think jimmy jacobs, if we can go off of his 2005-2007 writing, should be given a shot with helping book to try and pepper in life to this company.

RealFoxy posted:What always drew me to ROH were how well they've done blood feuds, but I don't know that they've really done an outstanding job at them since Steen/Generico since I haven't heard about a hot one since davey richards vs eddie edwards could have been one i felt. davey vs steen was almost there, but that felt more like steen vs cornette which hurt it. adam cole vs lethal was starting to get there but cole just won the title and lethal kind of petered out like he always does. right now it feels like there isn't that babyface to get behind and thats really something that's missing.

was rewatching some old roh matches today, just a few notes the nearfall in joe vs daniels was insane and the pop for it was nuts. before joe vs lethal for the pure title, joe comes out to momma said knock you out. when he wins, it just smoothly transitions into jadakiss' the champ is here. i thought this was v. neat and is a part of the little production things roh would do here and there that i liked. erick stevens/shiozaki/strong three way: 1) man erick stevens is super over here. 2) why the hell did the fans want the chopping to stop 2008 roh is such a weird place oh my god that was ten years ago. people talk about the silence after bruno lost the title to ivan koloff but the silence when morishima beats cide in a squash match is pretty close. im v sure the crowd wasn't expecting this title change this quick at all.

also maybe im in the minority and it sure was the wrong time and wrong person to beat nigel but i sure dug jerry lynn's little title run, even if it was only a couple of months.

roh tv this week was good. i still feel like dalton's reign hasn't been what it could be and i think it should be marty or cody with the title. silas and bcb's act is growin on me.

one of the boys on a tv taping should step up and challenge dalton for the title. not necessarily turn heel but i think it'd be a cool mentor/mentee twist

danielson's reign was the best though because he made you believe white supremacist delirious could win the championship

El Gallinero Gros posted:I consider his reign to be the best ROH reign ever. There are a bunch of genuinely great ones, but his chase and capture and reign are what got me interested in ROH beyond casually reading results and such. i think he won it literally on his second or third show back from hiatus

Morishima just having one or two two minute defenses on a card was always cool, especially when he was killing BJ Whitmer because gently caress him

SamuraiFoochs posted:Wait they gave Lethal the title with almost no build? LMFAO. they've been building to it for the past few months with lethal going over everyone who has beaten him since losing the belt before. im guessing dalton hit his wall and cannot go anymore so they pulled the trigger earlier than they were planning to.

roh is not very good at booking babyface champions, or at least they've shown an inability to. actually thats not really true, i thought briscoe's two reigns were done really well. dunno why he didnt break out more.

roh was late on getting the belt to tyler black, they were late on getting the belt to elgin, they were late on getting the belt to kyle, i dunno if i'd say they were late getting the belt to dalton because i dont know that i ever felt he was there yet, but roh has a history of waiting too long to pull the trigger on the babyface. they got it extremely right with edwards and richards though.
