  1. I'd hate for Cena to tie Ric Flair's record for most world championships with a 5 minute reign. I'm not saying that I'm opposed to Cena tying or breaking Flair's record, just not for 5 minutes.
  2. The matches were all good and a few were really great. ACH won a 6-man scramble (I think that's what they call it) between himself, Jay Lethal, Bobby Fish, BJ Wittmer, Adam Page, and Cedric Alexander. ACH is really athletic. It's pretty obvious from watching him on TV, but it's even more so in person. That guy can fly. They had the perfect match for an opener with Kaz and Daniels going against Adam Cole and Michael Bennett. That was a great way to start the show. Kaz did botch a move spawning a "You F***ed Up!" chant. My favorite matches were AJ Styles vs Kyle O'Reilly and The Briscoes vs. The Young Bucks, with the tag match being the better of the two. It was filled with spots (as most Young Bucks matches are), but unlike some of their matches it didn't feel like they were just moving from spot to spot. There was a good flow to it and it made the spots that much better. It was definitely the match of the night. We began chanting "You can't top that" and some people responded with "Yes they can". in the Styles/O'Reilly match, AJ did this move to O'Reilly where it looked like he was going for a Styles Clash, but he dropped O'Reilly on his head, it was a pretty brutal looking. I think it's really ridiculous (and fortunate for myself) that I got to watch AJ Styles wrestle for $20. Why is this guy not in a larger promotion? The main event was Elgin vs. Silas Young; due to Young being from Milwaukee he was cheered and Elgin was booed, so Young cuts a heel promo on Milwaukee and it worked a little. He was still getting cheers throughout most of the match, but the crowd stopped booing Michael Elgin. After that match, Elgin walked around the entire ring area and shook hands/fist bumped whoever was around. I am much taller than Elgin, but he's probably twice as wide. We got two promos, one from Jimmy Jacobs (with the rest of The Decade in the ring) where he re-introduced Adam Pearce (there are WAY too many Adams in RoH now) as a member of The Decade. Also, Adam Cole cut a promo, but I was in the bathroom for half of it (too much beer). Come to think of it, I missed about half of both promos because of those beers. There was also a meet-and-greet before the show with Christopher Daniels, The Young Bucks, Michael Bennett and AJ Styles. It was $10 for an autographed picture, but you could just walk up and meet them if you wanted. They were there for a while.
  3. I went to my first Ring of Honor show Friday (Death Before Dishonor Night 1 in Milwaukee) with a friend of mine and we had a great time. I was in the last row, which in the Turner Hall Ballroom is the 6th row, and everything was so close. I have my issues with RoH at times, mainly I feel that sometimes they could do themselves a favor by selling a bit more/better and some of the matches have too many false finishes, but that said, I really do enjoy the product. If you've never gone to an event, I'd recommend going if a show is near your area. For anyone else that has attended a show, how were your experiences (if you don't mind sharing)?

  5. You know a friend of mine was complaining about how "weak" Daniel Bryan looked. I explained to him, it's not that he's weak, he has the entire executive team gunning for him and a 3-man hit squad waiting for him around every corner. I don't even think Cena could overcome these odds on a regular basis. I'm enjoying it and feel like this is the best thing WWE has done in a while. Yeah, it's a bit of a rehash, but that doesn't bother me. I will express my dislike of WWE when it's bad, but when it's good we need to speak up as well (as many of you here have been doing). There were times I couldn't get through the three hours of RAW even while fast forwarding much of it. I'd fall asleep after an hour and a half or two. Lately, I've been very locked in to every episode - no sleeping and less fast forwarding.

  7. Thanks for the help guys, that is all really helpful. I really wanted to avoid him coming off as American with just enough of the accent to remind every one of that, everything you guys said will help immensely. I live in the Midwestern USA, I haven't met anyone with any kind of accent in years.
  8. <p>How do most people write Tommy Cornell's accent? I know he has a Lancashire accent, and that it's different from a Cockney accent which is how most non-UK people think all English speak. How would it be written (I mean how do you differentiate a word like car between two different US accents?), so would he just use more of the local phrases?</p><p> </p><p> I know he has been in the US for a long time now, but I still don't think he should come across as having no accent.</p>
  9. Does anyone know where I can find the program that makes the dynasty templates (like you see in the NWF diary)? I saw a topic for it earlier today, but I have been unable to locate it again.
