ROH. The answer is always ROH.

lol Well, maybe I'll change my vote to ROH, after all.
The only reason I'd go to a TNA show anymore is Samoa Joe.

I recommend getting that Genetic Duplication device that Steve Urkel used in that episode of Family Matters, and go to both!

TNA you'll get to see MCMG, LAX Samoa Joe and Christopher Daniels. They're all better than 99% of the RoH roster

So go to the 2006 ROH show instead. I'd say go to the TNA show. Considering that ROH is almost always in the northeast and TNA isn't, you'd get to see something you won't see again for a while. ROH will come back to Dayton in three months.

One thing that hasn't been mentioned: with ROH, you get more for your money. Front row seats at an ROH event cost about as much as nosebleed seats at a TNA event.

One thing that must be mentioned is that the TNA guys REALLY hold back on both TNA house shows and non-TNA shows as well. You won't be seein' AJ or Joe hittin' any big planchas or doin' anything out of the ordinary. They stay pretty grounded, because they really don't wanna get hurt and miss a TV taping or PPV check...
Now for ROH, they go ALL OUT, because for most, this is their highest payin' gig. The proverbial "handcuffs" don't play a big part in ROH. More often then not, from top to bottom, you get a solid show with each match better than the last..
In closing, your decision really is based on what type of fan you are. Not that there is anything wrong with a fan that likes to see star power instead of a 45 minute technical match, but if you wanna' see TV Stars, go to TNA..
PS: I'm pretty pissed at TNA for runnin' a show so close to ROH on the SAME DAY! There are 100 other cities that TNA could of run in, and yet they pick the SAME one ROH is runnin' in. . . They're really goin' for ROH's throat. I hope ROH outdraws 'em cuz that would be so sweet....

Man Up watch ROH, seriously do it. They've been pretty good.
I wouldn't be surprised to see ROH outdraw TNA, since ticket prices for an ROH show are lower, and there's more internet buzz for an ROH show than a TNA show

Keep this in mind: ROH's Dayton card will likely have the Human Tornado and and TNA won't. So automatically ROH show > TNA show

I had this same problem a year and a half ago, only throw in WWE's return of SNME, also it was TNA's 1st ever houseshow, and ROH's 2nd Detroit show ever. Granted they were two weeks apart but money was tight then.
I went with TNA's houseshow, it was a great time, I left my seats and went over by where all the wrestlers were hiding in a open tunnel. I got to see Chris Sabin eat a cheeseburger! Had I known Bound for Glory was coming to Detroit six months later, I probably would have gone to the 2nd ROH show.

ROH's main event talent will also likely show up.

While I don't have the exact numbers, ROH tends to outdraw them in house shows, or at least have a more consistent number of fans attend. And I think the Philly card you're talking about was headlined by Joe vs. Angle right after their first PPV match, which was definitely surprising

Interesting thread. I've been to both ROH and a TNA house show. TNA house show was a lot of fun, I won't lie. If you want quality, however, I'll tell you right now to go with ROH. TNA shortchanges its fans at house shows in terms of quality. BUT it does feel much more up, close, and personal than you'll get at a TNA PPV or Orlando (opinion: because I've not been to Orlando and just judge that statement based on how Impact shows run).
ROH (since you've already been) speaks for itself. I've been to 5 ROH events and the worst ROH event was greater than the TNA house show (and the TNA house show wasn't bad by any means).
If it helps you figure out which is the better choice, as soon as the likes of Shelley, Sabin, and Lethal hit the exit curtain on the way out of their matches, they'd probably choose to head on over and watch ROH over TNA.
(Also, you run a major risk of not seeing all of the "big stars" you want when you go to the TNA house show. The Dudleys, Raven, Sting, obviously Nash and others I can't recall off the top of my head weren't at the house show I went to.)

Go to ROH because if you don't you'll regret missing Nigel/Hero and Human Tornado. It shouldn't be about how many times TNA is coming to Ohio. It should be about where you are gonna get the better show. As alot of people said TNA's guys basically go safestyle for the houseshows and you'll basically be seeing a bunch of Impact/PPV rematches.
Go to ROH.
