CM Punk is a bit under dressed.
Perfect wardrobe for the area. It's too dang hot to be in a tux/suit in L.A. .Besides Punk is not a company man...lol

Ah, no worries - I'm pretty certain it's 'Sat Pro-DX', no idea where Max got Soil Pro from, something must have been lost in translation. I found a Japanese site with a write-up of the show in question, and I think the masked dude is Xevius;

Yay I kind of know how to make gifs!
I love this match so much
That match was insane, as soon as Whitmer put his hands up I was like "oh, fuck no - they're actually going to do a psycho driver through a table!", nasty as hell. I think it's quite telling that, despite most of his offence looking super dangerous, Super Dragon has injured very few wrestlers as far as I can recall. Also, Whitmer doesn't get enough credit for the dumb shit he did in ROH - the NRBW match with Necro (and the one vs Jimmy in IWA-MS), letting Punk backdrop driver him off the apron through a table, the two crazy top-rope powerbomb spots with Jimmy, etc.
Im going through the ROH's board Top 100 matches and its just so amazing how this company made such a big impact at the time and totally changed the way i watch and enjoy wrestling. Finished the first 2 matches, then jumped around to find every spot where Whitmer dies. Great stuff. Will resume going down the list later!
That's Natalya.

Oh my bad Ply-Chan.
I guess Curt Hawkings and A-Ry is a better match?
In the end they all job to Ryback.
True.
And look at Tyson Kidd even he's rising as he beat Tensai.
Hawkings, Reks, and JTG will be stuck in low cards FOREVER.
What have you contributed to this thread exactly?
You have a thread to post in with your dumb avatars because of me and the other forefathers of WrassleGAF.
Show some respect.
JTG speaking up might be his saviour. Yes, he got jobbed out, but he got a pretty decent backstage segment. Besides, Vince loves people that talk back to him, so who knows.
I hope Kidd gets more air time soon, wasn't he entering the tag division with Gabriels or something?
A Pretty Panda
fuckin' called it, man
Ok Jeff Bell
DM is a Chris Nolan guy. And he split just like I'm splitting from making threads the difference is that I made cooler OP's
JUST RETIRE

Yeah, same here - as much as the current ROH product is a pale shadow of Gabe's ROH, I can't abandon the promotion because it has meant so much to me over the years. If it wasn't for ROH, I simply wouldn't be watching wrestling today. And while a lot of what ROH did, especially in its early years, is kinda trashy when looking back, I loved the spirit of the promotion, it just felt so fresh, and that's something I never felt another US company has captured until PWG kicked off the awesome run they've been on 2-3 years back.
And just for the hell of it, here's one of my favourite ROH matches that probably doesn't appear on most top 100's;
Samoa Joe vs Delirious vs Jack Evans vs Kikutaro - (ROH 05/13/05)
I've always found this a highly entertaining match as well. Can't get enough Kikutaro!
Everyone now thinks Beth was the one who had embarrassing cutting the cheese backstage segments.

Yeah, he's such an entertaining wrestler - I love his comedy matches, but also love seeing him encounter 'serious' wrestlers. Here's a great one with Liger & Delfin dragged into Kikutaro & Kamen's madness;
Jushin 'Thunder' Liger & Super Delfin vs Kikutaro & Kuishinbo Kamen - (Osaka Pro 01/10/05)
And an excellent 3-way from earlier this year for the Osaka Pro Owari title between the 3rd generation of Ebessan, Kikutaro & Kamen;
Ebessan III (c) vs Kikutaro vs Kuishinbo Kamen - (Osaka Pro 04/29/12)

CHIKARA Grand Championship Match signed for the 2nd Night of King of Trios on Saturday, September 15th in Easton, PA;
Tadasuke from Osaka Pro returns to CHIKARA for the first time since he won last year's Young Lion's Cup. Should hopefully be a good, hard-hitting match.
I'd love it if the WWE Hall of Fame was more representative of wrestling as a whole, but it doesn't seem like something WWE are interested in doing - maybe as he wrestled a fair bit in WCW. They should induct Ultimo Dragon, too.

Good app. Would have been absolutely incredible a year ago.
