Never got why he was a train either.
Who's someone you miss? ROH 2005-2009 has a ton I miss but I'll stick with one for now.

Outside of the obvious two (SuperDragon and Excalibur), there's a few people from the early era of PWG that I still wish were around: - Scott Lost -CHRIS f***ING BOSH - Charles Mercury(Yes, I know he sucked, but that's what made Mercury so entertaining. He was charmingly bad) - Quicksilver - Top Gun Talwar - Disco Machine - Shane Haste (I know he's in TMDK in NOAH, I just wish he was back since I liked him when he was still working PWG shows) Surprisingly don't miss the Cutlers, though.

I miss the classic PWG roster. Yeah, the current lineup is off the chart amazing but I miss the humor and entertainment those guys brought me.

I miss the classic PWG roster. Yeah, the current lineup is off the chart amazing but I miss the humor and entertainment those guys brought me. I miss Bosh and Lost especially. Scott Lost was one of the more underrated wrestlers in PWG history. He was f***ing great in the ring and was amazing as a smug asshole heel. My biggest regret with respect to PWG is that I never got to see Bosh wrestle live. That guy was hilarious and was pretty good in the ring as well. It sucks that a neck injury derailed his career so early before he got the recognition he deserved. It doubly sucks that outside of the guys who have been involved with the company for more than 7 years, no one knows what happened to him. He just fell of the face of the earth. I want closure on Chris Bosh, goddamn it!

Came in specifically to say H-Tizzle and his balls of steel. Glad to see his name was already thrown out there. Dude is a class act and so damn respectful. His interctions with members of this board when he was posting here were always positive too, just an awesome guy.
All around fun guy to watch in the ring, super athletic, great look, good gimmick.

The Olsen twins and ceech and cloudy are two favorites of mine they always killed it together in matches aswell. Reckless youth. And as a whole I miss chikAra the good days from like 07 to 2013 then it fell apart after that. It lost its charm and ability to book anything into something worth seeing.

I was a huge Brent Albright mark, He just seemed to disappear one day.
EDIT: And Larry Sweeney. He's still one of my absolute favorites of all time. I can't listen to "More More More" or "Holiday Road" without getting a little sad.

I don't think it's the Visa thing anymore because they've taken some American bookings recently. I miss them in Reseda too.

Brent Albright and Lacey. ESPECIALLY Lacey. She was an amazing jerk.

I'm going to pick a weird one with Erick Stevens. I like big bruiser Indy workers and I like his look. Watching him and Roderick beat each other senseless was fun. Shame he got all skinny and weird. Never got why he was a train either. Who's someone you miss? ROH 2005-2009 has a ton I miss but I'll stick with one for now. IMO what hurt Stevens was that he was a Gabe FIP project who was pushed too hard, too fast, and suffered because of it. Another problem was that he was tied up heavily in the FIP title scene which ROH fans cared little to nothing about. Finally it didn't help that he got stuck in the middle of that dreadful stable warfare period of 2007. By the time they turned him heel to try and breathe some life into him, it was too little, too late. I miss Human Tornado, and Scott Lost a bunch. They really added to the charm of PWG. I also really miss seeing Dragon Gate guys regular on US indys. Whether it be ROH, PWG, or DGUSA, there was always something really cool about seeing them mix it up with the guys across the ocean.

Super Smash Bros (where have they been since leaving PWG??) *points you over to Smash Wrestling* Lot of singles and tag matches from both there. I miss hearing Aaron Bauer on commentary weekly. I was so happy getting to listen to him again on the AIW matches during #RAWlternative. I also miss Johnny Devine.
