Well.... after months of talking about it, I finally threw my hat in the ring and ordered my first three ROH DVDs. I got Death Before Dishonor, Final Battle 2003, and Punk: The Final Chapter I haven't seen any of those shows but welcome aboard the ROHeroin addiction!

Punk is a great show, DBD is a great 03 show, but still not comparable to current ROH. Haven't seen FB 03(its currently the only FB I don't own).

Outside of Jay vs. Danielson, which is a very good opener, everything else leaves a lot to be desired. Whitmer in the Prophecy? Ugh. A Fight Without Honor that is mainly a spotfest rather than a heated bloodbath? Fun but disappointing. And don't even get me started on the All Japan half, which had one of the most atrocious main events in ROH history.

I just ordered Reborn Again thru DBD N2. I probably should have kept up through out the year but oh well. You should have just waited for the Black Friday Sale next month like I am.

Don't think I'm not taking advantage of that as well. I am going to catch up on my 05 stuff in a major way when that happens.

Whatever you do, don't bother with Buffalo Stampede. Outside of a good pre-match Nigel promo and a fun Embassy vs. Generation Next fight, it may have been the worst show of the year along with Trios Tournament, which is another one to avoid as well.

I already have Buffalo Stampede. I got in my first order ever. Trios Tournament is the first 05 show I was plan on buying when I got back to completing the set.

To hell with Trios Tournament, get some recent FIP instead, that's been getting rave reviews lately.

Arena Warfare was worth every penny due to Danielson vs. Shelley and CZW finally get the upper hand. Plus Aries vs. Sydal is good stuff.

The common clay of the new West. You know . . . morons.

Danielson vs. Shelley alone makes Arena Warfare worth purchasing

Its like we are a small cult who like Arena Warfare. We need our own support group.

I agree that the MS was way better than FYF. MS still even after a year and a half still seem special. FYF, not so much.

The MS shows have diffrent enough names that you don't have to put a lot of though into which show has which matches.

MS was far better than FYF. It's not that FYF sucked. It just didn't feel near as special as the MS Series, even with Joe's Farewell Tour.
And I also really enjoyed Arena Warfare. In fact, it was the first ROH DVD I ever bought.
