Ring of Honor thread

[Necroyeti]

I've never liked Colt anyway, even during the peak years of ROH. I always felt most of his appeal was that he stole most of his comedy sequences from old World of Sport matches. Can't really argue against the "awful, generic roster" they have going, though.

The Briscoes are due to take on an as yet unannounced team from Chikara Pro in a "proving ground match"(*) on the 1/20 show though, which is almost guaranteed awesomeness. Hopefully Chikara works closer with ROH in future, without getting caught up in the stupid ROH/DGUSA heat - they have the good in-ring psychology and interesting characters that ROH lack, whereas ROH have the workrate and overall "seriousness" that Chikara lacks. They could really complement each other + disguise each other's flaws well.

(* - read: a new concept that's essentially a non-title match with a ridiculously short time-limit, (~15mins) where a win or draw earns the challenger(s) a title-shot. It's a pretty dumb concept if you ask me, but whatever)

Is there anywhere online I could see Punk vs. Aries at DBD3?

Took me about 30 secs to find, although I would've uploaded it for you if I hadn't. (non-embedded)

I recommend watching the shit AFTER the match for some 10/10 promo action.

Fuck yes. It is. Spent months looking for that promo.

....You stupid old man. I'm a snake.

Chikara invaded and won, so I guess they get the next title shot. Hopefully we get a cleaner match on this next one as I would really like to see a true winner.

Thought the TV show was quite good this week , wish they would have giving strong a more convincing win ,Hes better than cheep heel victories, I thought the Briscoes segment was quite good, my only complaint is i just wish they would stop the inside ring of honour videos !
and finally I thought the arena they were in looked good on TV.
Good show

I think this thread is probably the best place to put this.

You're lucky you didn't buy it to watch live, since it was actually unwatchable. The audio lagged by several seconds throughout, and apparently the video feed dropped altogether during the Steen/Generico and World Title matches. (I gave up watching after the second match) Really wish I went with DG:USA's $1.99 show last night

I just checked, and it looks like they've uploaded a fixed replay already.

I've been watching it & it ends during Generico/Steen. Idk what's up.
