My first time watching him. Definitely stood out in that.

Watanabe still looks proper green and he fucked Ciampa up with that Ishii-style elbow combo. Pretty sloppy opener that suffered from feeling like 6 guys taking it in turns to hit moves on each other. ACH looked good, though.

I'm not sure if Elgin or Taven has a worse look. Both need to change something. At least Elgin ditched the mullet.

Yeah that last elbow was pretty solid. I've seen weaker elbows in MMA.

Lethal is a better heel than babyface, which I did not expect.

Boring vs More Boring
Guess I will be rooting for Lethal. Taven == yaaaawn

watch a bit of GLORY this morning. that was terribly boring and bad. would rather watch UFC or IWA. you guys lied about it being entertaining
I enjoyed what I saw. I'm never watching a UFC show again. Completely done with Zuffa forever. Any MMA I watch will be PRIDE or random weird shit.
Thank you! I thought it was Adam Cole, for some reason.

While this does look better than ROH TV, this lighting setup is complete ass.

We are in the wrestling thread brah. WRESTLING!
I'll give it another shot.
It's always been the problem with ROH.

The fact that they are owned by a television company and still can't get this straight is embarrassing.
That's not to say I'm done with UFC because of how much I enjoyed Glory or anything. Glory was a fun show, but I'm done with UFC because I tuned out a few years ago anyway and nothing has changed, they still treat their fighters like shit, their hyping is terrible, and I hate everything about Dana.

Fuck GLORY, Fuck ROH, Fuck UFC
Let's just watch Best of the Best instead
I love that movie.
BotB3 is the worst action movie I have ever seen.

It's awkward how they keep doing the Special Olympics promo during Ziggler's entrance, and his screens say "you wish you could pull this off" as Cole talks about disabled kids.

The problem with Corino is that, in a half hour, all I have heard him do is make the same points and jokes that he did at Global Wars and War of the Worlds.
New Japan does the same thing.
They've always had it. Actually I think they originally didn't have one at all, but adopted the 20 count because PURO DOES IT SO WE DO IT TOO. Or maybe they always had it. I don't think they ever had a 10 count.
Now that I think about it, I seem to remember a 20 count being a feature of the Pure title, so maybe it was adopted into every match after that.

I can deal with Cornio. It is Kevin Kelly who sucks.

Getting punked by security is a good look.

Lethal Injection is such a shitty move.

This is why I hate anything involving Truth Martini. He is always the center of attention when he is on screen. He can never take a backseat.

The other two Alexander-Strong matches were really good. So I have hope for this one.

Is that his gimmick? He's from Boston and sounds like he's named after Matt Damon.

neither men are really "flippy" guys
I would like to hire Bas to do color for my banging.
"Punch him in the balls, kick him in the balls, knee him in the balls - do whatever you like!"
"Bang! Bahng! Boom! Dangida Dangida Dang! Boong!"
"Theres no rules... so he CAN pull the pants down"
"Ok I'm sorry *bang bang* No I'm not...."
"Yay, the head-between the-thighs-position,
usually used for another act. The black-widow technique! "

Ouch. Backdrop onto the apron.
Might have been an ouch if everyone and their mother wasn't doing apron moves in independent wrestling now.

Nice storytelling though to use it to weaken the back in a submission match.

If I hit a hundred people in the head with a hammer, it doesn't hurt the hundredth any less than the first.
