Re: Checking out something new

If you're going to get into ROH, I highly recommend you to not have the mentality of "I just want to keep up to date." That may be normal with TNA and WWE, but you will be missing so much if you don't look into the past ROH shows. When I first got into ROH, I did that, but when I looked through the backlogs of the Indy Media and Megaposts sections, I realized what ROH is all about. When looking for ROH stuff to watch, try to enjoy each match or series of matches on their own and not how all of the storylines go over time. That is how I found to enjoy ROH to the fullest. Not to mention, you don't want to miss out on three 5-star matches, an epic interpromotional war, a fantastic world title lineage, and countless great matches and feuds. That being said, I recommend all of the pay-per views (you do want to keep up to date as well), Unified, Glory by Honor 5, Joe vs Kobashi, Joe vs Punk 2, Supercard of Honor, the list goes on and on. I guarantee that no matter what you buy or find, no matter how old it is, you will enjoy it (as long as Jeff Hardy is'nt in it).

Re: Checking out something new

It's a little bit over a year but I'd recommend seeing Austin Aries vs Nigel McGuiness at last year's Rising Above PPV. It was 12/29/07.

Also death before dishonor VI from the hammerstein ballroom. But the thing with ROH is you could get any dvd and you'll find something worth watching on it.

If it is financially feaseable I would also highly recommend checking out an event live. Every show is 10 times better seeing it live.

ROH Glory By Honor V: Night 2

Opener:
Davey Richards vs. Jack Evans *** 1/4
A great opener that got the crowd hot for the show.

Singles Match:
Adam Pearce vs. Delirious ** 3/4
Nothing really special here except to introdce Pearce's Man Slave/Servant.

Triple Threat Match:
Colt Cabana vs .Christopher Daniels vs. Jimmy Jacobs ***
A fun story-driven match to further the storyline with Lacey/Cabana/Jacobs.

Grudge Match:
Samoa Joe & Homicide vs. The Briscoe Brothers *** 3/4
I hate the pre-match stipulation because it made the match too predictable, but the action was great and fun.

ROH World Tag Team Title Match:
Austin Aries & Roderick Strong (c) vs. The Kings of Wrestling *** 1/2
The Kings don't interest me, so the workover period was kinda boring, but the final stretch was very good and brough tthe match up.

GHC World Title Match:
Naomichi Marufuji (c) vs. Nigel McGuinness **** 1/2
A MOTYC for 06. An awesome match that started the whole McGuinness face run as a future face of ROH. The finshers to the floor, nearfalls, & stiff hits were all great and added to the match.

ROH World Title Match:
Bryan Danielson (c) vs. KENTA *****
The MOTY for 2006. This was an ncredible 30+ minutes of stiif kicks and really pulls you in due to the multiple attacks to Danielson's injured arm. The combos and exchanges between the two were fantastic and Dragon having to switch up his moves because of his shoulder were good and the fans really thought a title change was sure to happen, so it made for an incredibly dramatic match. The NOAH wrestlers being ringside added to the importance of the match and made it feel special.

Get this show. TWO fantastic matches highlight this show and the crowd was hot for everything. We saw a glimpse of the monster Morishima and Bruno Sammartino made an appearnence on ROH's debut in the Manhattan Center, so this event feels really special.

Lol, CZW 2007. I'd say your best bet is to go with one of the Cages of Death or Best of the Best(5 if you're going to get one) dvds. However the Tournament of Death Fast Forward (which I think was in 2007) was pretty good if you're into the violence.

Ring of Honor - Night of the Butcher
1. Michael Shane vs Jeremy Lopez (**1/2)
2. Colt Cabana vs CM Punk (***) Not their best meeting but still good.
3. Paul London vs EZ Money (**1/2)
4. American Dragon vs Chad Collyer (***3/4)
5. Special K vs Jay Briscoe & Amazing Red vs SAT vs Da Hit Squad (***)

7. Bryan Danielson vs Paul London (****)
8. Xavier vs AJ Styles (***1/2)
9. Abdullah The Butcher & Homicide vs The Carnage Crew (**) Wasnt great. Still dont know why they thought it would be good to bring him in.

Some good stuff and then just some average stuff. Danielson vs London was awesome.

Ring of Honor - Final Battle 2002
1. CM Punk vs Colt Cabana (***)
2. Alexis Laree vs Simply Luscious (*)
3. Special K vs The Backseat Boys vs Da Hit Squad (**1/2)
4. The Prophecy vs The SAT (***1/2)

Average show... some disappointing matches.

ROH Ring of Homicide 2

Austin Aries vs Jimmy Jacobs
(Anything Goes)
**1/2
A bit short, but they made nice progression in their feud, you could tell they were saving the goods for the PPV.

The Age of the Fall vs Cheech and Cloudy
**1/2
Cheech and Cloudy have talent, but man do they look gay.

Steenerico vs The Osirian Portal
**3/4
Basically a comedy match, don't need The Osirian Portal in ROH though.

Go Shiozaki vs The Necro Butcher
(FIP Title)
***
It took a while for it to pick up, but when they took it to the outside this was good.

Brent Albright vs Chris Hero
**3/4
Did not like this that much, some good wrestling, but it was a bit boring.

Six Man Mayhem
***1/2
Maybe I'm a bit overrating it, but it was funny, entertaining and had fast paced action.

Tyler Black vs Jerry Lynn
***1/2
Solid match, nice to see Tyler stating he'll go for the title.

Briscoe Bros. vs LAX
****
Very good match, as you would expect, Briscoes were really messed up after this one. Another great promo by Homicide after the finish, this guy should be a main eventer in TNA.

Not that bad of a show, fairly enjoyable.

Another great promo by Homicide after the finish, this guy should be a main eventer in TNA.
He'll get serious pushes when he can learn how not to be such a wild worker and know how to work his strikes.

Driven 2007:

BONUS Matches
ROH World Title Match:
Takeshi Morishima (c) vs. Adam Pearce **
Basically another squash and why did Pearce deserve a title match?

SHIMMER Tag Match:
Lacey & Rain vs. Daizee Haze & MsChif ** 1/2
Your basic women's tag match with some good double team moves by Lacey & Rain.

Grudge Match:
Nigel McGuinness vs. Chris Hero *** 1/4
An average match and fun to watch. Better than their match at Supercard of Honor II.

Glory by Honor V: Night 2 Rematch:
Bryan Danielson vs. KENTA *****
This was my pick for MOTY and better than the PPV main event. Just a tiny notch lower than the original match, but this was just as good. KENTA's no-sell of the G2S was very annoying, but I'm not going to let it ruin this perfect, underrated match. This should be seen.

PPV:
6-Man Tag Team Match:
Roderick Strong, Davey Richards & Rocky Romero vs. Erick Stevens, Matt Cross & Delirious ****
A great opener that served its purpose of firing up the crowd and set the tone for a fantastic night of wrestling.

Singles Match:
Matt Sydal vs. Claudio Castagnoli *** 3/4
Claudio cotinues to show how well he works with the smaller guys and just does some crazy move sequences with Sydal, especially the move where he tossed Sydal up in the air like a pizza. Great match for 8 minutes.

Singles Match:
Naomichi Marufuji vs. BJ Whitmer *** 1/2
Your standard ROH match here as these wrestlers do some dives to the outside, tease finishing moves, hit good sequences of moves, but don't win, and provide the occasional crazy spot to try and make the match memorable. Not complaining because this is what I love about ROH; Mid card matches provide a good match without it having to be too much.

Squash Match:
Brent Albright vs. Pelle Primeau *****
A perfect squash that makes Albright look like a monster after he was hyped as a hitman on Respect is Earned.

ROH World Tag Team Title Match:
The Briscoe Brothers (c) vs. Kevin Steen & El Generico ****
A great match here, but after I saw their FYF: Philly match, I was expecting this match to be similar, but it was still great match to show how awesome this feud was going to be. The outside spots were really brutal and escalated the match from a regular title defense to a real hate filled match.

ROH World Title Match:
Takeshi Morishima (c) vs. Jimmy Rave ** 3/4
Again, why does this wrestler deserve the title shot? Another squash for Morishima to prove how big a monster he is, but we still didn't get a good title match out of it.

#1 Contender's Match:
Bryan Danielson vs. Nigel McGuinness *****
A MOTYC and an awesome match with brawling, strikes, technical wrestling, and a hot finish. The finish was hot, but the win came out of nowhere and too quickly for my taste, but I got over it because this was another awesome match in the McGuinness/Danielson series.​

Overall, get this DVD. It's a perfect show and IMO, beter than Man Up! because it builds throughout to an awesome main event with other good moments such as Aries' return, Sydal's alliance to Sweet N Sour, and the Pearce promo to accompany the wrestling unlike Man Up! where they only have matches and the great Danielson promo.

Ring of Honor - Revenge on the Prophecy
1. Matt Stryker vs Chad Collyer (**1/2)
2. CM Punk vs Michael Shane (***)
3. SAT & Ghost Shadow vs Divine Storm & Konnan (**) Weird they bought Konnan back after last time.
4. The Carnage Crew vs Da Hit Squad (***)
5. Special K vs The Outcast Killaz & The Ring Crew Express (**)
6. BJ Whitmer vs Colt Cabana vs Homicide vs Paul London (***3/4)
7. Samoa Joe vs Bryan Danielson (***)
8. The Prophecy vs AJ Styles & Low Ki (****)

Another average show... Some good stuff and some well average stuff. Joe vs Danielson should have been longer.

Ring of Honor - One Year Anniversary Show
1. Chad Collyer vs Michael Shane vs Colt Cabana vs EZ Money (**1/2)
2. Team TWA vs The Carnage Crew (*)
3. Mark Briscoe vs Jay Briscoe (***3/4)
4. Homicide vs Steve Corino (*1/2) Really wasnt overly great and was remembered for the chaos that went on afterwards.
5. The Outcast Killaz vs The Ring Crew Express (1/2) CW kicks their asses
6. CM Punk vs CW Anderson (**1/2)
7. Bryan Danielson vs Samoa Joe (***1/2)
8. Paul London vs AJ Styles vs Low Ki (***3/4)
9. Xavier vs Paul London (***1/2)
10. Special K vs Da Hit Squad, The SAT, Divine Storm & Mikey Whipwreck (***)

Good show with some solid matches.

Ring of Honor - One Year Anniversary Show
8. Paul London vs AJ Styles vs Low Ki (***3/4)
9. Xavier vs Paul London (***1/2)
10. Special K vs Da Hit Squad, The SAT, Divine Storm & Mikey Whipwreck (***)
What? Really?

London vs. Style vs. Ki is one of the best matches of 2003 and the title shot afterwards is Xavier's best. The fact that you didn't say the main event was a dud makes me believe you aren't even watching these shows. Are you just posting fake ratings to look cool or copying them from somewhere else?

What.The.Fuck.

Tokyo Summent

Austin Aries vs. Tyler Black ** 1/2 pretty good encounter. This feud has been really underrated. Tyler Black still looked good even taken the clean lost getting most of the offense in.

Kazushi Miyamoto vs. Eddie Edwards * 1/4 blah.


El Generico vs. Taiji Ishimori *** good stuff

Takeshi Morishima & Davey Richards (w/Larry Sweeney) vs. The Briscoe Bros ** 1/2 pretty solid tag match.

Yoshinobu Kanemaru vs. Bryan Danielson **** you ever ask your self why is Danielson a wrestling God? well this match could tell you why. This had great physogogly and an epic human chess style


KENTA & Kota Ibushi vs. Naomichi Marafuji & Katsuhiko Nakajima **** just another awesome match


Kensuke Sasaki vs. Roderick Strong ** 1/2


Nigel McGuinness vs. Jimmy Jacobs ** really dissapointing.


overall 7.9/10 really solid undercard despite the disappointing main event
