Ring of Honor thread

So, ROH have announced their next live iPPV - 9th Anniversary Show - for February 26th 2011, with the folliowing matches on the card so far:

ROH Title: Homicide vs. Roderick Strong (c) - Well, Homicide vs. "whoever holds the belt", in case Strong drops it to Jay Briscoe in a couple weeks time. I was kinda disappointed with Homicide's match against Daniels at Final Battle, so I really hope he steps up his game on this PPV. Roderick Strong is awesome though. In hindsight, I'm glad he didn't lose the title so quickly at FB, because he deserves better than that.

ROH Tag Titles: All-Night Express vs. Kings of Wrestling (c) - Should be great. KoW are one of the best tag teams in wrestling today, they've done some great shit in the indies and Pro Wrestling NOAH and any other promotion they've appeared in. Don't count out ANX though - they're incredibly underrated as a tag team as well. Rhett Titus is the fucking man.

The Briscoes vs. Charlie Haas and Shelton Benjamin - This is gonna be off the fuckin' charts.

But yeah, there's not much point having a thread just for one PPV that's almost two months away, so let's talk about all things ROH.

Why is Homicide in a match for the World Title?

Not complaining, just wondering.

By defeating Christopher daniels plus in my opinion having that privilege of being one of ROH veteran.

I figured it was because he's an ROH veteran. I just wasn't aware that his match against Daniels was a "#1 Contenders" so to speak.

From their website:
Homicide has torn through Ring of Honor since returning in September, and is undefeated against the likes of ROH World TV Champion Christopher Daniels, Jay Briscoe, Kevin Steen, Necro Butcher, Kenny King, and others. The former World Champion is looking to regain the belt he lost in 2007, but never had a chance for a rematch until now.

I do hope there will be more done to build it up in the coming weeks on ROH on HDNet though.

Edit: I also don't expect him to win the strap... I guess they're just looking to build up Strong for his eventual rematch against Davey.

Gotcha. Makes perfect sense now.

Agree that some buildup would be wonderful
