Also words cannot express how much I missed Leyla Hirsch!

I missed the beginning of the match but that ending did not disappoint.
Also has ROH been using those guardrails that are semitransparent though I do miss those metal ones that people would slap.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago

I do like the older ones but I don't mind the fact that they're using more padded ones.

Issac Newton weeping during this match. I do believe the floor is lava.

I totally forgot! I might tune in around 9ish or so aka as soon as I can.

Looks like it'll bleed into Rampage. It's days like these I wish I had neighbouring TV's lol

[–] [email protected] 3 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Same! I kinda wish they would combine Rampage and ROH on these days in a Clash type of supercard but I understand!

[–] [email protected] 3 points 1 year ago

That'd be great! I guess it all has to do with TV deals and whatnot, but I'm sure they could find a way to make that work.

Ruffin is so much fun to watch. I'd love to see him on TV more, even if its just as a jobber.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago

Absolutely; he'll be a star someday!

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 year ago

I love you Joe but let Dalton have the title, cowards. <3

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago

Please let Shibata and Daniel Garcia fight forever that was so good! <3

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Shibata nearly lost his life from a horrible neck injury years ago. You know what's even more impressive? That he didn't corpse in the face of Daniel Garcia dancing like he's got the turbo button held down.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago

Ikr he's serious when he said he hates the dancing haha!

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago

Athena really makes ROH must see tv. She's been a perfect foil for Willow, as well. I hope this rivalry gets revisited in the future.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Shibata's theme is so amazing <3

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago

The beginning reminds of TLC's No Scrubs

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago

Ruffin was tossed so high he qualified for Air Miles.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Athena and Willow main eventing. You love to see it.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago (1 children)

That's great. How did the tag match go? Did the Lucha Bros. retain?

And if it's already the main, then maybe this won't bleed into Rampage...

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago (1 children)

It's Dark Order vs Righteous now, then Claudio and Pac, then Willow and Athena so I think it will bleed over :(

The tag match was great; Trent? and Chuck were always awesome. Aussie Open is great. And I'm a sucker for The Kingdom!

to answer your questionThe Lucha Bros didn't retain


[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago

Okay, that makes sense lol. I've been a bit distracted and thought it was coming up next.

And too bad for the Lucha Bros., but hopefully this means they'll be back in AEW.

God The Righteous/Dark Order match is bananas in the best way

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago

The "you sick fuck!" chants from the crowd once the Legos were dumped into the ring were absolutely perfect. That close up shot of the thumbtacks and Legos will stay burned into my memory for a while.
