[The Lodger]

With trading cards, ROH is taking a page from Chikara. Good for them, it worked for Chikara, it will most definitely work for ROH

[Chainsaw]

The story about Sal Hamaoui's wife Tammie is utterly heartbreaking.

[The Line]

Wonder when they'll announce the date for the Trios. Last newswire it was officially suspended indefinitely, but not canceled.

[Panda Bear]

Poor Sal, hope he get's better
RIP Tammie

Hmmmm....they said this about Roxbury, and it ended up being 100% true, so this place must give out free handjobs or something. I actually can't wait to see how this place holds up compared to the Reggie Lewis.

As someone who has run in track meets at both the Roxbury facility and at BU, the difference is like night and day. BU is a really, really nice part of Boston. The gym they are running in is actually where the Basketball team plays so I would assume that the building is going to be alright. This is a better place because Roxbury is known for being a bad area of Boston and despite the fact that the Reggie Lewis Center wasn't in the worse area, there were some concerns and I guess it's better to run in a place where people will not be afraid to attend.

[The Line]

And for future Boston events, this could be huge, as they could easily tap the college student market. This may not apply to this particular show, as they may still be on break(I don't know when exactly they go back to school).

looks like the exact same lineup for the jan 26 show in Chi that we were suppose to get here the 1st...I was at that show and it was not a very positive experience...Hopefully "weather" conditions do not cause extreme no shows this time as well...
