Sorry Roh stans but I will never get the Strong/Richards love. I find both of them uncreative in the ring and dull outside of it. I don't mark for stiff strikes at all.
Thought Generico/Lethal was a way better main event than this weeks'.
Also Steen needs to come back ASAP.

I haven't watched episode 3. I like both Davey and Roddy, but I have no desire to watch them wrestle again, especially since I don't think they will ever have a better match than some of their earlier ones, which is sad because I think they have the potential to do something even better.
Davey vs. Roddy was a Richards match through & through. There was none of Strong's relentless assault on the back which elevated his series with Edwards. They just leathered each other back-and-forth ad nauseum. It was like watching the highlights of a dozen main events edited together by someone with ADD.
Also, the commentators seemed really tired on this show - lots of stumbling over words & half-finished cliches left hanging.
I'm late to the show but I'm really starting to love the ROH product. I'm still very ignorant about the history but I'm trying to learn so be patient with me and kindly correct me if I say something stupid or so absurd that you wanna kill me... haha trust me I don't mean to do that. But I am learning.
Right now I absolutely love The Briscoe's and I'm sure that surprises absolutely no one. I really enjoyed the Strong v. Richards match from this weeks episode. I'd love to watch those two guys wrestle each other all day long.
The show comes on twice for me. Saturday at 2 pm which is really bad for me and I haven't watched that one and then again Sunday night at midnight which is technically Monday morning.

Re: ROH on SBG Discussion Thread
You should watch Strong wrestle someone good instead Crofty.
Yeah I have the same scheduling problem, I have either 8pm saturday night (or something like that) or 1 am Monday morning. Was too tired to watch the last episode.

Re: ROH on SBG Discussion Thread
Actually as much as I hate the midget Davey Richards he works really well with Strong. I don't follow ROH as much these days (most of the people I really liked have or are about to move on) but I could recommend some older stuff if you;re interested. Strongs trilogies vs Danielson & James "Jaime Noble" Gibson in 2005 are probably his best stuff though.
