Can anyone help tell me the colors wrestlers usually get when they enter?
I know Delirious gets green and black but can anyone tell me any others?

There's really not too much standardization as far as I've seen. A friend of mine used to throw pink at Jimmy Rave (pre-TP).

In the end it really doesn't matter. Lately in Chicago everyone gets streamers, even Bobby Cruise.

ROH really overdoes it in the streamers. In Japan, the place where it's most frequent, they only do it for big matches.
A scramble does not need streamers.
Oh and to answer the question, Misawa is green and white, and when Jushin Liger was there he just got engulfed in every color imaginable.

I disagree with that to an extent - I've never been to a show where more than one match and a handful of people who are ridiculously over got streamers, and I don't think I've ever been to a match where more than a few people threw them.
Maybe some locations are worse than others or it was insane before I started going, but I don't think I've ever seen an overflowing of streamers.

I love the streamer toss. It just looks neat. I know I have my red and black ones ready for Danielson.

I expect Misawa will get streamers of Punk and Joe epic proportions come November.

Streamers should be left for the Main Event and Championship matches.

IIRC, the streamers in ROH started as just a way of honoring wrestlers doing a one-off show. At Final Battle '04, I was sitting next to a man and woman who brought two backpacks full of streamers for the Great Muta and passed them around to the entire ringside.

streamers are just a way of showing admiration for a wrestler.
as for colors... if they match the tights that's usually a good sign.
or if they are something the wrestler's assciated with is also a good sign.
i.e. if I were to see quackenbush I'd probably throw blue streamers because the chikara logo is blue.
then again some you can just throw any color, like colt cabana for example can get a whole rainbow of colors thrown at him and such.

For me, I would only throw streamers if someone is leaving ROH or retiring.
Drown them in streamers before they go, just like Punk.

We did streamers for FIP, some people there wanted to get streamers for everyone but luckily we decided to just throw them for Shingo. (It was his last night in FIP before going back to Japan.)

also if larry sweeney ever debuts as a wrestler you want to throw streamers that are still in the little balls at him.
it's a joke from chikara.
