crows sucked, kinda hurt the show. Was fun but not one of the better roh shows I've been to.

did they really make a tables match an elimination match just so they could do a gently caress finish with the heels winning in 2 straight falls

Former NWA World Historic Welterweight Champion Matt Taven will beat Jay Lethal who, after losing, will henceforth be referred to as Black Melvinismo

bully was eliminated between the faces eliminations. there was a ref bump in this match and there was a ref bump in the previous match as well

I don't like the implication that Aniversario main eventer Matt Taven isn't good enough to main event Final Battle.

The all-time great Final Battle main events, like

Danielson/Low Ki/Joe/Corino
Danielson/Morishima Fight Without Honor
Steen/Generico Ladder War
Jay Lethal/Matt Taven

It'll definitely be better than Danielson vs Ki vs Joe vs Corino, a match that was merely pretty good and main evented over the equally crowd pleasing Xavier vs Paul London.

The Rhodes effect on booking

Matt Taven is unironically really good though, there are two people who have impressed me way more in person as far as charisma/personality than they do on TV, and they're surely two of the biggest legends in wrestling. Matt Taven, and Michael Bennett.

I've went to the TV tapings the last two years. The crowd will probably be similarly dead and smaller than yesterday's but I don't think the tapings are any longer than a standard wrestling show. (3-4 hours. Getting stoned beforehand is highly recommended.)

Tv tapings were fun. Had a better time than at ppv. Cobb win was a surprise. Gresham is a way overlooked wrestler. I wanted ishii to chop me but he wasnt doing a meet n greet.

It's weird, because he looks like a weird hybrid of Roman Reigns, Baron Corbin and Tama Tonga. And his ring work is about what you'd expect from that combo.

He’s a better worker than Corbin by quite a bit, but he somehow manages to have even less charisma, which really shouldn’t even be possible.

Also this was a non-TV segment closing the show so I'm reposting this part here because the buzz levels are off the chart:

Bucks, Cody and Page talk to fans about their future, tease All In 2, and say if ROH comes back to Vegas, there'd better be no empty seats

The two biggest stories and a Bullet Club promo were spoiled multiple times just browsing twitter, so either you are lying (sent here to deny the buzz) or are just allergic to bees. The truth will come out.

You guys think Neville will do anything with ROH?
