OK, didn't watch the show and the reviews/recaps I've seen have differed on this point, so... did Brandi kiss Kenny or did Kenny force a kiss on Brandi? Because the latter, while it would kinda make snese in story, is way more sketch

The Elite, plus Ibushi and maybe an Okada/Tanahashi/Suzuki/Naito level New Japan talent would probably give them a shot at drawing enough to not be embarrassing in a building that size. And Supercard of Honor is at over 5k, so, it's not impossible for them under the right circumstances.

And, I mean, the dominant wrestling group in the US market is owned by the husband of a member of Trump's cabinet, so, it's not like you can easily avoid this kind of thing as a fan of this dumb sport/art.

VJeff posted:So, my desire to see Kenny knee Cody in the face beat out my desire to not give Sinclair money and I'm gonna order Supercard this weekend, but I'm not exactly sure how I do that. It doesn't seem exactly like a WWE Network/NJPW World situation. Am I gonna be subscribing to Honor Club and then ordering the PPV after that, or what? I was similarly unclear but it looks like they're classing Supercard as a 'tour' show, so it's just in the regular subscription price.

I'd watch ROH on VOD, honestly. There's about an 85% chance the stream is gonna die when the entrances for the main event start.

And Taven is... maybe feuding with Castle? He was getting a title shot at least, so if he wins the belt, you can do him and Cody as a program?

They're claiming Dalton's wrestling on the UK tour as well, although the Edinburgh show has him in a six-man with Lethal and Tana against the Kingdom (where he could basically lounge on the apron and then hit the bangarang in the finishing sequence and nothing else), but London supposedly has a title match with EVIL.

Honor United was fun. I got a photo with Tanahashi, but was too starstruck to really say much except give him my name for an autograph, and I got to slap hands with Jay Lethal when heading back to my seat from the bar and he was leaving the ring. Was not expecting the TV title match to be the most fun thing, but having a super-over hometown babyface probably helped, and Young was very good at working the crowd as a heel. The Bucks match was also great, and the Addiction/LIJ match was good, albeit a bit more comedy based that I expected. They leaned too much on distraction finishes, though, to the point where the ref was getting more heat than the heels. I ducked out right before the finish of the main event because I was jumpy about missing the bus to the train station, but from the noise in the building as I was leaving I think I literally only missed the finish itself. Martinez/King was really solid, I think tonight made me a Kenny King fan. The match was hurt a bit because of a lot of WWE-centric heckling at Martinez, the people couldn't decide if he was a poor man's Baron Corbin (the correct option) or Roman Reigns. Tenille & Sumie vs Klein & Chardonnay was at least politely enjoyed. I was dreading catcalls, but mostly people were just quiet and cringing a little whenever Sumie and Chardonnay did something clunky together. The Bucks, Cody, Tana, Joe Hendry, YTR and Dalton Castle got the biggest pops, from where I was sat. SoCal Uncensored committed to the gimmick, because they didn't just talk poo poo about the town on the mic during the show, they were basically amusing themselves by heckling the people waiting in line for merch and photo ops before the show. (Also Brandi was wearing that sequinned sling with her street clothes, not just as part of her gear. I thought it was her handbag when i first saw her).

I'm also a bit confused as to the point of the Bully Ray angle. That felt like an excuse to get him on the show that didn't need to have happened when The Boys had gotten a nice pop for winning and could possibly spin that into credibility for the tag belts if they were booked strongly going forward.

I felt bad for Lethal during the 6-man. Tanahashi being way more over than him was always gonna be the case, and I guess Dalton is the babyface champ so he SHOULD be over, but I was surprised at how little reaction Jay got. I even tried to (with a wee bit of success) get a Lethal chant going when he tagged in at one point.

SamuraiFoochs posted:I know the first part but like I consider that the first act of a build, then [SCENE MISSING] then act 4. What was act 2 and 3 supposed to be then, because honestly, the logical next step is "I challenge the champion now that I've redeemed myself"? They obviously rushed through the build to the actual title match, but that was because Cody and Marty's New Japan roles don't allow them to be the ROH champion right now so they had to have Dalton retain and then drop to someone else.

Benne posted:If Dalton's injuries are so bad you have to get the belt off him ASAP, and they don't want Cody being the champ when everyone knows he's jobbing at Cow Palace, why not just give it to Marty at the PPV? It's not like he's doing anything in Japan right now with the G1 coming up, and you could easily use him to transition the belt to Lethal without making it feel so random. Marty's doing the job on a tag match on the undercard of the same SF show. He's tagging with Adam Page against Tanahashi and KUSHIDA, and they're not going to job out Hangman or Tana before the G1. And having an active junior on the New Japan roster holding the ROH world title doesn't look great when he's going to consistently be the fall guy in multi-mans over there.

EugeneJ posted:I have a strong feeling that Lethal's transformation into Black Machismo on Being the Elite is leading to Black Machismo vs. Cody (who Lethal thinks is Dusty and therefore wants to murder) Could be a misdirect and he goes in as Flair. (Admittedly, Cody's gimmick basically already is Ric Flair, which is kind of genius. Dusty's son becoming the spitting image of his greatest rival?)
