man...I hope the dayton show I'm going to is better, I mean the card itself isn't bad:
ROH World Title Steel Cage Match Nigel McGuinness (if still champion) defends vs. Chris Hero
World Tag Team Title Match Jay & Mark Briscoe (if still champions) defend vs. Jack Evans & Ruckus
First Time Ever Bryan Danielson vs. Tyler Black
Special Challenge Match Davey Richards vs. Erick Stevens
Also signed: Claudio Castagnoli; The Age Of The Fall of Jimmy Jacobs, Lacey, & The Necro Butcher; Austin Aries; Delirious; Roderick Strong & Rocky Romero of No Remorse Corps; The Hangmen Three of Adam Pearce, Brent Albright & BJ Whitmer; Jigsaw; Daizee Haze plus more!!!
I mean, that looks like a good card

That Dayton show is looking pretty solid. It'll be interesting to see how they do the whole thing with Nigel teasing a heel turn taking on a guy who's full-blown heel.

It continues my feeling on that ROH is losing it. This was my 6th show, and the worst by far. I think PPV has REALLY hurt ROH. Family friendly? Really? There just seemed like alot of, I dont know. It just felt like a "wrestling" card. Not really what makes ROH ROH. The promos feel forced. The matches were boring, predictable, and lacked the usual ROH flair. Even the Briscoes match put everyone to sleep. Thats NEVER happened. My favorite match I ever saw was Briscoes vs Strong and Evans. This had one replacement in the match and was just...boring. Maybe its just a transition time. But it just felt, disjointed. eh, the PPVs are a different animal. I'm thinking tonight will be ROH back in its old form. I hope so, as Final Battle is usually a pretty safe bet for a good show.

How can Aries/McGuinness be a MOTYC when the MOTY has already been announced? Hmmm? What's this now?

I was at both shows this weekend and I'm starting become a little burned out on ROH. Night one's 1st half was great but after intermission it all went to hell. Right now I feel ROH has to start putting new guys at the top of the card, as it is alot of Dragon, Aries, Marufuji, Nigel, Etc. I feel that the mid carders are getting bigger reactions and putting on better matches most of the time. Also, the NRC is awful, nobody is into them. The match against the Briscoes killed the crowd. Then to top it all off, the Claudio/Marufuji match basically turned the crowd off as the main event, as we saw that match the last time ROH came to NYC. People were chanting Low Ki before the match thinking that would be Fuji's opponent, so when Claudio came out the crowd was dead. Decent match but the ending was awful indie booking 101, with both guys eating eachother finish then a small package for the win. God awful, I even called the finish to my buddies before it happened.
