On the upside, that's awesome that Eddie Edwards is the first TV champ.

Beating Richards cleanly .. wow .. that's awesome.

So people are shitting on roh because they are actually using their own talent on a big weekend and not putting on stupid supercards that are great to watch but what does that do for any of their own guys when 6 dragon gate guys no sell everything and wrestle a completely different style to what roh do.

Well this would be a perfect time for a supercard show since no one cares about most of the ROH roster. Between stale matchups and the piss-poor booking of everything except for Steen/Generico a couple of supercards would be welcome. I'd rather watch no-selling by the DG guys then Skullcrusher in yet another fucking squash match. We get it, he's a monster, no one gives a fuck. I'm honestly glad Claudio, Hero, and Stevens are in Europe at wXw, might be more enjoyable then the tapings besides the tv tournament matches.

And here's the tv taping results, if anyone cares

Quote:

1st show:
Edwards over Steen via roll-up (Generico came out, Steen was distracted)
Richards over Kenny King
Jerry Lynn's return to tv (hopefully to just finish out the King feud)
Generico-Steve Corino brawl. Generico beat Corino by forfeit after Corino called Generico AIDS and said he didn't care about him. Generico finally attacked and they brawled.

2nd show:
THE EPIC & LONG AWAITED RETURN OF BRENT ALBRIGHT
Colt Cabana over Ricky Reyes
Briscoes over The House of Truth
Non Title: Tyler Black over Rhett Titus (Aries/King came out to interfere, Strong cased them away, Roderick says that hes protecting Tyler so he can get his title shot. Tyler calls Roddy a bitch, Roddy slaps him, and a brawl ensues.)

3rd show:
Surprise, surprise, a Skullcrusher squash over Rockstar James Brown
Roderick Strong over Joey Ryan
Dark City Squash Club over Caleb konley & pee wee
Necro Butcher over charlie dreamer, Necro couldn't use weapons
Delirious over Aries via DQ, Aries attacked Daizee
Eddie over Davey in the tv title final, best match of the night

It's because what ROH is currently doing with their current roster isn't interesting. A Davey/Strong or Davey/Hero program might get people a bit more excited. Look at last year for example. Nearly all their great matches involved KENTA and the rest were Davey. I'd take a DG 6 man with poor selling but massive excitement over Black/Aries or whatever combination they have on. That's why if I was going Mania weekend I'd take the DGUSA show over the ROH show without even a second thought.

The main reason I'm disliking what I'm seeing for ROH in PHX is because it's always been known as having SUPERCARDS each year. Not to mention considering it's the biggest Wrestling weekend of the year, you'd expect them to have at least 1 World Title match.

DG USA haven't impressed me all that much with their cards either so far tbh. Yoshino/Shingo, Doi/Hulk and the Night 2 six man are all that really interest me.

The HDNet booking is head scratching, why anyone would want Delirious or Necro anywhere near the main event is impossible to fathom! My only big problem with ROH is them putting on the best wrestling product on tv with the American Wolves vs. The Young Bucks or Omega vs. Hero and then a few weeks later having main events like Delirious vs. Aries! I know it's still infinitely better than TNA or WWE tv but good god learn how to book your tv show.
