bigtplaystew Posted May 25, 2011 Share Posted May 25, 2011 <p>Looking at their past of bringing in "names" I think ROH would do it well. They actually build characters there. Not only that, but their champions actually hold on to titles for awhile. </p><p> </p><p> So if a guy like MVP (just to use an example) came into the company, I would see him making a fine fit. They wouldn't put a belt around him right away, but if they wanted to launch him right into a main event status (which they probably would and should) they'd have him fued with a guy like Davey Richards or Roderick Strong or someone like that, depending on which direction they want to take his character. </p><p> </p><p> If they want him to challenge for a title they'd have him do a huge series with one of the previously mentioned guys or another worker at that level. After two or three great matches, the ROH fans would accept a guy like MVP the way they accepted Shelton and Haas.</p><p> </p><p> I mean it's possible they'd use him to put over a young guy like Eddie Edwards assuming he's still champ. That wouldn't shock me at all. Have a main superstar like MVP come in and have a great series with Edwards but ultimately lose. </p><p> </p><p> Thats the kind of stuff they do.</p><p> </p><p> Also... I REALLY hope Low-Ki goes back there.</p> Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Final Countdown Posted May 25, 2011 Share Posted May 25, 2011 <p>Fun fact: MVP wouldn't technically be a "new" face in ROH. He had a match with Homicide in 2005, but it was very forgettable and he was not brought back. Of course, his profile has risen exponentially since then, and I don't think he's a half-bad worker. I wouldn't mind ROH bringing him in.</p><p> </p><p> Punk coming back would be all kinds of awesome, but I think it's a pipe dream.</p> Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I never was a big MVP fan but I got to admit...WWE Armegeddon was here @ 3 1/2 years ago....at the time MVP was US Champ and he totally CARRIED Rey Mysterio in their match...I think he could survive in ROH...Just hope, as I live in a 'Sinclair' market that we get it on TV ...

bigtplaystew Posted May 25, 2011 Share Posted May 25, 2011 Philadelphia is kinda "home" to ROH yet Sinclair doesn't have a station there lol. I'll still watch the net shows it's not a big deal.

The Celt Posted May 27, 2011 Share Posted May 27, 2011 I'd like to point out that it been implied by the Sinclair group that we might be able to stream the new ROH TV show via the internet; so while places like New York and Philly won't have it on their TV sets they could well have it on their laptops.

The Boston area is a big market for them as well (they draw a pretty good crowd), the shows are no longer held in Boston (Which is fine by me because getting around up there is a pain in the ass.) they are now in Plymouth, but still Sinclair has no media presence up there either.

Self Posted May 27, 2011 Share Posted May 27, 2011 TV somewhere is better than TV nowhere. Maybe they can build some new markets. Maybe different networks in those New York, Philly, Boston markets will bring the show in if there's enough demand for it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think that's been stated outright, actually. But that's not going to do a whole lot in terms of introducing new fans to the product. Good for those of us who already have an interest in ROH, though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This is well worth your time. Your link doesn't work, so here it is: A great video, and got me quite excited for Best In The World. ROH World Title Match Eddie Edwards defends vs. Davey Richards World Tag Team Title Four Way Elimination Match ROH World Tag Team Champions Wrestling’s Greatest Tag Team (Charlie Haas & Shelton Benjamin) defend vs. The Kings of Wrestling (Chris Hero & Claudio Castagnoli) vs. The All Night Express (Rhett Titus & Kenny King) vs. Jay & Mark Briscoe World TV Title Match Christopher Daniels with Truth Martini defends vs. El Generico Special Challenge Match #1 Steve Corino with Jimmy Jacobs vs. Michael Elgin with Truth Martini Special Challenge Match #2 “The Prodigy” Mike Bennett vs. Jay Lethal No Holds Barred Street Fight Homicide vs. Rhino with The Embassy Dream Tag Team Match- Dark Match/DVD Exclusive GenerationMe vs. Adam Cole and Kyle O’Reilly Singles Action Colt Cabana vs. Tommaso Ciampa with The Embassy I am slightly annoyed about the decision to bring in GenMe for a match that can't be on the IPPV, because there is no way I am buying the DVD as well as the IPPV. And may not be the strongest card top to bottom ROH have ever put on, but the top 3 matches make this a must see show. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Final Countdown Posted June 18, 2011 Share Posted June 18, 2011 A great video, and got me quite excited for Best In The World. TWS isn't even an ROH employee, but he's been making amazing hype videos for them for a while now. They need to hire him, pronto. I am slightly annoyed about the decision to bring in GenMe for a match that can't be on the IPPV, because there is no way I am buying the DVD as well as the IPPV. And may not be the strongest card top to bottom ROH have ever put on, but the top 3 matches make this a must see show. Totally agree. It would have been much better to do that GenMe match on a DVD-only show, but to do it on the night of an iPPV taping is just annoying. I don't care how good that match is, I'm not buying the DVD just for that if I've already seen the rest of the show (and can rewatch it whenever I want.)

Fantabulous Posted June 24, 2011 Share Posted June 24, 2011 My first thought upon seeing the logo was of Batman on NES. It's a good looking logo, so I have no complaints about it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
