I would legit rather watch a pandemic-era EVIL main event than an Ass Boys match. EVIL is my boy and they massacred my boy but at least he once was a boy Liked him on Destination America ROH, even with Kevin Kelly calling him "Wa-ta-na-bee".

I think people are more mad that they were expecting a cool finish to the evening, rather than that being a sign of the Gunns having heat.

I liked the finish if it means anything, mainly how Jay finished it, picking up Ricky's carcass and hitting the Blade Runner I also guess because I wanted Ass Boys in this faction from the jump I was pleasantly surprised my (terrible) booking came to pass!

Also, I second "f*** Chase Owens." The Ass Boys might not be the best team, but at least they aren't pedophiles.

The Gunns are fine, I don't mind their act.
But I just cannot give a single solitary shit about this new Bullet Club group, especially since the original version is actually starting to get interesting again under Finlay and with the addition of the LA dojo guys.

They're an underling tag team that will play their role well and ensure Jay doesn't have to take pinfall losses at a high clip Chase Owens went to Japan so he wouldn't be taken to court They are not the same...

Have a feeling we might see these groups collide though, Forbidden Door would be a time to do it

I'm serious about preferring EVIL to them though. Shit, give me Yujiro hobbling his way through a completely unremarkable undercard match, at least with him I might get to see Pieter.

My thing with the idea of 'oh well they're just goons to take falls' is that like, that still involves watching matches of them? They're just not an act I have any attention span for so them being in matches featuring guys I do otherwise like is a net loss of interest for the match I otherwise would have been down with. It's like them getting the tag titles. I understood the reason why and the intention but you can understand intention and still not actually want to watch it.

Also as much as people hate the Ass Boys, they are not worst than Bone Soldier, Cody Hall, Gino Gambino, Chase Owens, Jado, or any of the House of Torture. I refuse to accept people think the Ass Boys are THAT bad. As much as I can't stand him, at least Gino Gambino gave us "DOUKI CHOKEY!".

I really just don't even get how the Gunns are an act that's actually had, like, successes and gets regular screentime and the like? Dudes absolutely blow.

Gino Gambino sounds like one of Tony D'Angelo's associates.

Depends on the matches and who is involved for me I actually have liked The Gunns in ring more than I did in the past, I think them finding their act more has helped them, and I imagine their use will be against better teams to work with as well to help them Overall I think them being in that role is their best role though. Also depends on who else might join the faction

They're gonna be lackey's in a faction, it's not like they're going for the tag titles again here, though maybe the spite will carry them there who knows lol I also dont think they absolutely blow, they sell well especially and they finally got a finisher that is easier to set up They also haven't been on TV since they lost the tag titles, they've been gone for awhile. I think if they were to come back, this is the best place for them, especially to be under guys like White and Juice tbh

Kevin "peaks the microphone as he screams his head off during a finisher" Kelly is the best one of the regulars.
