This is a solid match. I wish the crowd was a bit better, though.

 

[Sblargh]

Yeah, this is a good match.

Stream quality is very good, too.

I don't think it is the crowd. I think it is just the way the crowd is being picked up by the mics. When I was at War of the Worlds, the crowd was on fire for everything. When I watched iPPV stream, it sounded just like this.

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

If we're using that kind of logic on wrestling, why don't the wrestlers just instantly go for their finisher as soon as the match starts?

 

[Alucard]

Looks like Roddy's working on Cedric's back while Cedric is working on Roddy's neck/head. I like it.

What? That has nothing to do with the point. I said it looked like the apron thing hurt. How many times it is done elsewhere is irrelevant of how much it would hurt here.

 

[Alucard]

Stupid asshole throwing a streamer while both guys are sitting on the top turnbuckle. "Kick him out!" I concur.

 

[FallingEdge]

What? Why was there a 5 count? Why did he break the hold?

The point is that wrestling isn't real and as such, has things that work that don't work that has to border the line of inevitability. If everyone is doing DDTs, it's less engaging in a match. And if ROH needs anything, it's identity.

Foot on the rope .

Jayzus, them high impact moves.

 

[Alucard]

This match is reaching four star levels. Just give it five more minutes at least, please...

I get that. But you can't be thinking about what everyone else is doing all the time. That isn't a common spot in ROH. So when it's done, it works.

 

[plagiarize]

Nice spot on the top turn buckle leading to the finish. Is everyone doing that one?

 

[slightconfuse]

How's ROH been . Just caught the last match it was pretty good

You got the first good match, haha. But it was indeed pretty good.

 

[serenewarfare]

Man, I really wish Jay Briscoe wasn't such a loudmouth homophobe. These guys deserve WWE money.

 

[FallingEdge]

I wonder where Michael Bennett would be without Maria.

 

[Mengetsu]

Those live events.

One of the Los Matadores suffered what appeared to be a serious knee injury at today's WWE live event in Newark, Delaware. After he went down, the referee threw up the dreaded "X" symbol and the WWE medical staff came out. The rest of the match was said to be panicked and rushed. We're not sure if it was Fernando or Diego yet but they were taken to the back with the rest of the participants in the match looking on concerned.

 

[Alucard]

Even without the five extra minutes, that was still a very good match. Roddy worked the back. Cedric worked the neck. Roddy tapped to his own move. He seriously considered showing respect to Cedric, but stuck to his stubbornness.

 

[Vylash]

Those live events.

Almost like they should cut down on them for the safety of their talent or something

 

[Alucard]

Guys, it's time.

 

[serenewarfare]

Of all the former Divas to stick around and work indies, Maria is one of the last ones I would have expected to do so.

 

[somedevil]

Probably won't help. MVP blew out his knee just taking a wrong step. Sometimes injuries just happen.

 

[slightconfuse]

Watching this on mute Corinio is GARBAGE. His voice is so whiny

 

[Sblargh]

Murder them homophobes Matt hardy!

 

[Alucard]

Maria looks fantastic. @_@

I'm expecting a good brawl in this match.

 

[Sblargh]

Good lord, call the fucking match. Stop your fucking horrible jokes. I'm begging here.

 

[serenewarfare]

What a shit finish.

 

[FallingEdge]

lol what a shitty finish

 

[Ithil]

What.

 

[plagiarize]

lol what a shitty finish

Not over yet.

 

[serenewarfare]

This match just became better.

 

[FallingEdge]

Not over yet.

baited so hord

 

[Alucard]

No DQ? Okay, now my body is ready for some Briscoe craziness.

 

[Ithil]

Time for brain damage.

 

[Alucard]

Where did all these chairs come from? LOL. I'm loving this after that bullshit false finish. I was definitely baited really hard.

 

[somedevil]

Time for brain damage.

Yep, through a loop hole while Nigel watches. I bet some man on women violence as well.

 

[serenewarfare]

No more streamers ROH. Please.

 

[slightconfuse]

not the random actor

 

[Ithil]

"Twiizzafaay"?

 

[plagiarize]

not the random actor

Good sport though.

 

[Deleted member 47027]

That's a good looking elbow drop

 

[Johnny Ryall]

Wow

 

[serenewarfare]

That was a mess. A glorious, awesome mess.

 

[FallingEdge]

god damn

fun match

 

[Deleted member 47027]

JEEEEEEEEEEZUS THAT SUPLEX

 

[slightconfuse]

JESSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSUS

 

[Alucard]

That was a really good garbage match, and Matt Hardy taking the superplex off the ladder...damn.

 

[Ithil]

Well, no one died, luckily.

 

[Deleted member 47027]

Awesome match, lots of fun
