Eliminating The Competition - Main event only?
Stylin & Profilin - ?
Insanity Unleashed - ?
Take No Prisoners 09 - ?
Steel City Clash & 7AS I'm definitely watching.
16 Carat worth getting this year too and I'm ashamed too say that CHIKARA's King Of Trio's looks worth watching judging by the stars I've seen thrown about even though I normally deteste them. Worth watching all 3 nights of each?

I'd say Proving Ground Night 2 is worth watching. The show is actually quite good fun.
Stay away from Eliminating The Competition. I don't even think the main event is worth watching (***1/2) but still.
Stylin & Profilin has an enjoyable first half and shit second half. Nothing worth checking out though.
I'm currently watching Insanity Unleashed and it's an alright show so far. You could try checking it out but I wouldn't say there is anything must see.
Definitely check out Take No Prisoners 2009. Good lot of ***+ matches and an awesome main event.
EDIT:
ROH Insanity Unleashed
Nate Webb vs. Flash Flanagan
Nate Webb still sucks. *
Claudio Castagnoli vs. Bryan Danielson vs. Kenny Omega
Damn this was good fun. Makes me look forward to when I can eventually buy PWG for Omega/Danielson. ***
Chris Hero vs. Jay Briscoe **¾
ROH World Tag Team Title Match
Kevin Steen and El Generico vs. Rhett Titus and Kenny King
Bit too much comedy at the beginning but an enjoyable tag match nonetheless. I can't help but laugh when King comes out with the mask on. ***
Bison Smith vs. Silas Young ¾*
The American Wolves vs. Roderick Strong and Brent Albright
Very fun tag match and MOTN. Edwards seemed a little sloppy. ***¼-***½
No DQ Match
Jimmy Jacobs vs. Delirious
Alot better then I was expecting infact it was actually alot of fun to watch. The ending was pretty awesome as well. ***¼
Nigel McGuinness and Austin Aries vs. Jerry Lynn and Tyler Black
Good yet disappointing main event. One great thing I want to point out is the change in reaction to Nigel while he was champion. When he was face and apologised for not being able to wrestle while injured and everything, he was booed for it. After proving himself such a great champion, when he walked out from behind the curtain on this show he was cheered by many and then at Take No Prisoners 2009 he was cheered by everyone after refusing to apologise to anyone for being hurt. Just wanted to point that out. ***¼
Overall: Not too bad of a show. Nothing must see but it was certainly better then the last 2 shows
