Added to the 12/23 Final Battle Internet PPV is Tommaso Ciampa vs. "a very special name." There's been rumblings of it being someone the Embassy has dealt with before, but I haven't confirmed who. ROH will be announcing it later this week. Colt Cabana? AJ Styles? CM Punk? Necro Butcher? Erick Stevens? Grizzly Redwood? Balls Mahoney? Jack Evans? Matt Sydal? Jimmy Yang? Bruce Leroy? Whom? WHOM? WHOM?

I was thinking about how awesome it would be for AJ to do a one shot in ROH. The guy was all over the first 3 years of the company. I was watching Night of Grudges last night, and i can't stand those 2 who were on commentary for the first few years. What happened to those guys? Were they Feinstein's boys (heh) and that's why they vanished?
I know Lenny Leonard was taken out when ROH had the falling out with FIP, but i never heard anything about those 2 guys.

In regards to Final Battle, anybody else think Jacobs is gonna turn on Corino and ally himself with Steen?

I hope ROH isn't too blind to see that Steen needs to be the face that doesn't do what he's told. Basically he does heel stuff but gets cheered, so go with it! They need to do the same with The Briscoes.
I don't like the evil authority figure thing anymore than anyone else, since it's done to death. But no way the fans side with Cornett here. I'd say have Corino help Steen and let Jacobs stay with the boss since in my opinion it would result in a double turn anyway.

Were they Feinstein's boys (heh) and that's why they vanished? one they stopped using, the other was Gabe "DANGEROUS!!!" Sapolsky ROH and FIP didn't really have a "falling out", ROH just felt it was cheaper and easier to do their dvds themselves in Philadelphia than going down to Florida to do post-production, which is where Lenny lives, and to use Chris Hero instead of flying up Lenny

I heard that Lenny was pissed because they just started using Hero without informing him, but it was likely just Newz bs.

Oh great, just what ROH does not need,a former WWE diva who will contribute nothing to ROH, and will hopefully not result in ROH going for the more Sports Ent style, because thats what made ROH great, but I shudder to think we can lose some quality time in matches becasue Bennet's "mama" wants to take up airtime with her promos and segments! Next thing you know Jillian, Melina, Maryse and others will join. Hey ROH, Bennet is NOT the future, dont give into his girls demands!

Bennet's whole gimmick is that he's a "Sports Entertainer", no reason the company would change their direction to what's been a primary source of heat for Mike Bennet.

I don't mind Maria there. She loves wrestling and might just get Bennett over better than that lame 80's throwback Brutal Bob. Hell, I wouldn't mind her in the new Women of Honor should that ever take off. Someone with an actual personality beside serious is much welcomed.

Good videowire, Another GREAT steen promo. I honestly don't know what I want to happen. If they go the finger poke of doom route it would make sense and a group of Steen, Corino, and Jacobs is awesome. However, with all this hype I am excited to see a bloodbath between them next week.
oh and glad to see JIMMY RAVE(!) wrestling at final battle. Hope it could lead to something permanent.
oh and I really like the idea of Bennett and Maria. They could play a good bitchy Hollywood couple.

Bennett called Jerry Seinfeld and Bill Cosby 'amazing people.' Bennett better be winning this damn TV title.

Why does Jimmy Rave look like Alex Shelly?

So I wonder if Rave is a mainstay or if this is a one off?
It's gonna be weird seeing Rave as a face in ROH.
