I've never got the hype about ROH. I watched a couple of their shows when they first went on TV, but they didn't grab my interest. I'm going to give them another shot, since people are still raving about them...this is the latest show.
0:22 - One of the most despicable, deplorable things you have ever seen in professional wrestling? This ought to be good.
0:32 - What?? Austin Ares pushing a woman is one of the most despicable things in pro wrestling? Christ, this guy clearly wasn't an ECW fan. Hang on, let me grab a link...here we go, skip to 1:17 and tell me that a push is something to give a fuck about.
Or here at 0:40:
To treat a push like a big deal is kind of patronising.
2:09 - That was more of a forearm than a push, to be fair...still not that big a deal in the grand scheme of things
2:48 - Is that Sonjay Dutt? I didn't realise he was in ROH, I like Sonjay.
3:17 - Jim Cornette :) I like Jim.
4:35 - The Briscoes - I've heard good things about them, but I've never seen them wrestle. I hope they're as good as people are saying.
9:37 - Nice double team move
13:22 - Whoa, top turnbuckle moonsault to the floor :) Nice. This match is starting to heat up.
16:23 - Nice match, it seemed to end just as it was getting good though :/
17:38 - "There's only actually six people in the Battle Royale" "Oh, well this is gonna be a piece of cake then" hahaha
24:00 - Ooh, Daivari. I like him, he never got a fair run as Bashir.
27:06 - Cool, Colt Cabana
45:54: Ares wins the Battle Royale. Not a great match, but it's a tough stipulation to make interesting.
Overall, not a bad show, better than I remember it being. The tag match was solid, would have been great with an extra 5 minutes - it was just getting some decent momentum when it ended. I'll give them another shot maybe next week, hopefully the next one will have more than 2 matches.
