Re: Official ROH DVD Help Thread
IPV versions Spar? Not sure if I'm getting the same compilation as you since I got mine off a different site. i'm sure several matches overlap on both though.
Excited about the 2 Dreamslam shows, nice to see some Great Women's wrestling.

I loved both of those matches,but my MOTY would go to Dragon/Joe from FOTC,just got the DVD in a couple of days ago and found the encounter to be the most entertaining 60 min match I have ever witnessed the crowd was so electric . Don't know if this makes any sense but even though I enjoyed the Unified match more,I think the GBHVN2 match was a better overall bout.

I actually think Better Than Our Best was the best ROH in 2006,Supercard Of Honor was fantastic aswell.I was considering ordering Dragon Gate Challenge is that show on par with the other two shows?

Yeah, that was an awesome match as well, I was so lucky to be there live. It felt like 30 minutes when it was over, meaning they did in awesome job at drawing me into the match. Also, it does make sense with one being more entertaining to you but another being better, happens all the time.
As for the show quality of DGC, it's one of my favorite 2006 shows. BTOB > DGC > SOH in terms of the triple shot.

Re: Official ROH DVD Help Thread
ROH Showdown in Motown
-BJ Whitmer vs. Delirious **1/2 (Average Opener)
-Nigel McGuinness vs. Claudio Castagnoli **3/4-*** (Solid Match That Ended With Everyone Saying “Bullshit”)
-Roderick Strong & Jack Evans vs. Sal Rinauro & Chad Collyer **3/4-*** (Strong & Evans Are The Best Team To Never Win ROH World Tag Team Titles & It Shows Why)
-Colt Cabana/Homicide Brawl: ***-***1/4 (HOLY F’N CRAP!)
-Samoa Joe vs. Christopher Daniels vs. Jimmy Jacobs vs. -Adam Pearce **3/4-*** (Solid Four Way)
-Daizee Haze vs. Allison Danger ** (OK Women’s Match That Was Too Short)
-Austin Aries vs. Alex Shelley ***1/4-***1/2 (Good Grudge Match & Advance The Feud Very Well; Not As Good As Manhattan Mayhem Tho)
-Abyss & Jimmy Rave vs. AJ Styles & Matt Sydal ***-***1/4 (Same as Shelley/Aries)
-Bryan Danielson vs. Chris Sabin ***1/2-***3/4 (Good Main Event That Could Have Been Better)
For $10: It’s a Solid Show
For $20: Average Show By ROH Standards
ROH Vendetta
-Ace Steel & Delirious vs. Nigel McGuinness & Chad Collyer **1/2
-Sal Rinauro vs. Jimmy Jacobs **3/4 (Entertaining Bout; HUSS HUSS HUSS)
-BJ Whitmer vs. Claudio Castagnoli *** (Good Bout)
-Christopher Daniels vs. Samoa Joe ***3/4 (Very Good Match)
-Colt Cabana/Homicide Brawl ***1/2 (ANOTHER HOLY CRAP!)
-Adam Pearce vs. Davey Andrews DUD (Just Skip It)
-Bryan Danielson vs. Roderick Strong ****3/4-***** (One Word: Classic)
-The Embassy vs. Generation Next & AJ Styles ***3/4-**** (Great Eight-Man Battle)
This Show Was A Absolute Steal For $10
I’m satisfied with both of these shows. Cabana/Homicide & Generation Next/Embassy feuds are awesome & should be followed by anyone that loves Bloody Brawls & Stable Wars. Danielson/Strong II was one of the great matches I had seen & really missed out for a long while until now. I can’t wait to get shows that contained Danielson/Strong I & IV. ROH is the best thing Pro-Wrestling & anyone that says ROH is not the best promotion in North America…they never seen it before or they are just stupid.

Re: Official ROH DVD Help Thread
Wow, I just watched Secrets of the Ring w/ Raven and that was very informative. I learned a lot about everything that goes into being a babyface. There is a lot more that goes into a match that I never even thought about.
I recommend this DVD for anyone wanting to become a wrestler or just wanting to know the 'Secrets of the Ring'. I cant wait to watch the rest of them.

Re: Official ROH DVD Help Thread
Top 4 shows not including Better Than Our Best, Dragon Gate Challenge, Supercard Of Honor, Ring of Homicide, GBHVN2? I've seen Unified but don't own the dvd!
I'm thinking Manhattan Mayhem, Final Battle 2006, Unified, Chicago Spectacular Night 2(the last 4 matches could all be over 4 stars)! Any suggestions?

Re: Official ROH DVD Help Thread
To address the last few posts:
Van Daminator if you have the other 2 Triple Shot shows just do yourself a favor and get Dragon Gate Challenge it lives up to the other two and as Spartan pointed out it probably is a better all around show than Supercard.
Glad to see you liked the Nov 05 shows watts.
I want to get the whole Raven Secret of the Ring set but only part 5 was on sale last time and if possible I'd like to avoid spending full price for the 5.
Thats HowIRoll, every ROH fan needs Manhattan Mayhem its that simple and Unified was a hell of a show too, Haven't seen CS Night 2 yet cause its in the mail and I obviously haven't seen Final Battle 2006 but live reports sounded very positive.

Re: Official ROH DVD Help Thread
I personally like Manhattan Mayhem better but both are top quality shows, anyways if your looking to buy those shows from ROH's site your kinda stuck with Manhattan Mayhem cause BTOB is sold out.
Edit cause I don't want to double post:
PWG - Card Subject to Change
The Ballard Brothers & Ronin vs Excalibur, Top Gun Talwar & Supa Badd - ** 1/4
Tony Stradlin vs Colt Cabana - *** 1/4
B-Boy vs Human Tornado - ***
#1 Contendership match
Ricky Reyes & Rocky Romero vs Quicksilver & Scorpio sky - *** 1/2
American Dragon vs Chris Hero - *** 3/4 (MOTN)
PWG Tag Team Championship
Scott Lost & Chris Bosh (c) vs Zokre & Pheonix Star - *** 3/4
PWG Heavyweight Title
Super Dragon (c) vs Homicide - ***
Notes: This is a very good show by PWG standards and is pretty entertaining through and through. Quite honestly PWG usually opens with a 6 man and half the time they are horrible but this one wasn't bad, Stradlin a guy i've never even heard of was very impressive against Cabana and both Tag Team matches were fun and pretty well done. MOTN goes to a good outing between Hero & Dragon despite the fact it is a little strange that the first few minutes of the match are comedy before getting competitive in the end. Homicide/Super Dragon was pretty dissipointing, not that it was bad it was just average and probably the worst match on the card besides the curtain jerker so don't expect a lot and don't buy the show for that match. One of the best Non-BOLA PWG shows I've seen so far and worth a look.
Overall Show Rating - *** 3/4
