Lyriqz ✪ Posted June 26, 2014 Report Share Posted June 26, 2014 Best in the World is receiving rave reviews. I haven't seen an ROH show in two years, but I might start watching again. Also, Matt Sydal (Evan Bourne) was backstage. I didn't like it much. It wasn't bad but it just wasn't really that spectactular or different to any other ROH show. I did like Briscoe Brothers vs. Matt Hardy & Bennett, reDragon vs. Bad Influence and Elgin vs. Cole though. The "We *censored*ed up" thingy during the main event was hilarious. Hated how Elgin is booked to be so overly strong though and this event took the cake. Doesn't help that I can't stand him either. Link to comment
St★rstruck Posted June 27, 2014 Report Share Posted June 27, 2014 I can't stand Michael Elgin either. I get the same vibe from him that I get from a guy like Davey Richards, for example; great wrestler, but is flat out BORING as all hell. Link to comment
LEGION Posted June 29, 2014 Report Share Posted June 29, 2014 Glad that I am not the only one who feels like this about Elgin. Link to comment
Guest Posted June 29, 2014 Report Share Posted June 29, 2014 Elgin is Dry af, Cole wasn't the best but shit Elgin is far worse. Link to comment
E#37 Posted June 29, 2014 Report Share Posted June 29, 2014 The only thing i like about Elgin is his Powerbomb. I can just never get into his matches, dude is dry as *Censored*. Link to comment
ArmVD Posted June 30, 2014 Report Share Posted June 30, 2014 I like Elgin when he's teaming with Cage in PWG. And I like MsChif. So basically, I like the people that are associated with Elgin. Otherwise, I don't like or hate Elgin. He's...there Link to comment
Astro Zombie Posted June 30, 2014 Report Share Posted June 30, 2014 I've never got the hype around Elgin. I've seen him wrestle for the last 3 or 4 years and aside from the delayed vertical suplex he hasn't really done anything special. He's best in short matches, or matches with smaller guys. Any longer than 7-12 minutes and it turns into a really bad indy-puroresu match. Pretty much the same problem Davey Richards had. Link to comment
Paulie Walnuts Posted July 1, 2014 Report Share Posted July 1, 2014 So, Michael Elgin is the new ROH Champion?..Ewwww. Link to comment

Great wrestlers can do their moves over and over again and still make the match feel fresh, Elgin has the exact same match everytime he steps into the ring and it's just boring and no amount of moves can change that imo. So, Michael Elgin is the new ROH Champion?..Ewwww. Ew indeed and nice avatar. Link to comment
Bronson Posted July 1, 2014 Report Share Posted July 1, 2014 I've seen one match involving Elgin, and it totally soured me on him. It was the 3 way between him, AJ Styles, & Okada. Nevermind the fact that he looked totally out of place next to arguably the two best wrestlers on the planet, but his story in the match involved getting his knee hurt. But he completely no sold it at multiple points throughout the match. I'm not sure if that's a recurring thing with him, but it stuck out to me. Link to comment

ArmVD Posted July 4, 2014 Report Share Posted July 4, 2014 Superplex off a ladder = Attempted Murder I think I'm starting to like Matt Hardy Link to comment
Crack. Posted July 5, 2014 Report Share Posted July 5, 2014 Nice, didn't know the highlanders were on ROH Link to comment
#DeadManWalking Posted July 14, 2014 Report Share Posted July 14, 2014 When does new episodes pop up on their web site? I've yet to figure out the schedule Link to comment
ArmVD Posted July 14, 2014 Report Share Posted July 14, 2014 When does new episodes pop up on their web site? I've yet to figure out the schedule I want to say Monday, but I'm not sure Link to comment
ArmVD Posted July 15, 2014 Report Share Posted July 15, 2014 Awesome promo, other than the music coming in before the end Link to comment
St★rstruck Posted July 16, 2014 Report Share Posted July 16, 2014 Wow, that promo was great. Honestly didn't know Adam Cole could cut a promo like that. Link to comment
ArmVD Posted July 16, 2014 Report Share Posted July 16, 2014 Wow, that promo was great. Honestly didn't know Adam Cole could cut a promo like that. He's capable of delivering great promos. It's not ROH, but if you haven't seen his PWG promo before BOLA 2012 I recommend it. I've actually heard that this promo is the reason why Super Dragon booked Cole to win BOLA that year Link to comment
strothunity Posted July 18, 2014 Report Share Posted July 18, 2014 I was at Aftershock in hopkins, minnesota. it was pretty awesome! it was my first live wrestling event. the highlight was cedric alexander vs kyle o'reilly. it was a very exciting match. i have more love for wrestling after seeing it live.

Lunchbox Posted April 10, 2015 Report Share Posted April 10, 2015 Nakamaura was announced for the NJPW/ROH shows which makes the final list: Stars signed to appear - Hiroshi TANAHASHI - Kazuchika OKADA - Jushin Thunder LIGER - Tetsuya NAITO - Takaaki WATANABE - Kushida - Nakamaura The shows in Phili are on a Tuesday and Wednesday. I really hope they do Joe v Nakamaura. Link to comment
TNFNS Posted April 10, 2015 Report Share Posted April 10, 2015 And ROH gave them Taven and Bennett. What a *censored*ing deal. Good names for the show though. Link to comment
Bushy. Posted April 13, 2015 Report Share Posted April 13, 2015 Glad somebody finally bumped this. I started watching about a month ago and I had no where to discuss it. Ever since I saw BJ Whitmer vs Roderick Strong at the 13th Anniversary I was like *Censored* these guys. Hate them both. Elgin too. Anyways I guess there's a delay on taping because I saw Supercard of Honor 2 weeks ago, and the site I go on just posted the show before the PPV. It's so confusing. Link to comment
Guest Fight Me. Posted April 13, 2015 Report Share Posted April 13, 2015 Yeah, the shows have always been behind the PPVs. Or at least they have been for a while now. It's kinda annoying, which is why I only watch the PPVs now. That and I love ROH but I don't think I could watch every single week without it losing it's magic. But once a month? Yeah, I can definitely do that. Link to comment
