I'd have to agree with TNA having a better ROSTER(even though I voted ROH). But ROH uses there roster far better than TNA does. Agreed. This is why I vote ROH. It all comes down to Heyman's philosophy: "Accentuate the positives; hide the negatives." ROH may not do that as well as Heyman once did, but they're leaps and bounds ahead of TNA. Plus, they don't employ VKM.

TNA. While ROH in general has more athletic guys then TNA, TNA has more experienced guys and a lot of athletic guys and great wrestlers. Let's take Davey Richards and BG James. Davey Richards is overall the better wrestler. But BG James has double the knowledge and triple the charisma. So I think ROH only wins in the in ring category, but as far as charisma, knowledge and stuff like that, TNA by a longshot. I agree with all of this.

I would agree with this if you'd used someone other than BG James.

Well, for me it's TNA. ROH's a good little indy company with good little indy guys who can put on a good little indy match, but that's about all. I know people argue that ROH's guys are brimming with charisma and so forth all the time, but I just don't buy it. Like Age Of The Fall. None of them have any charisma. I watched that video of them walking around Philadelphia babbling about cookie cutter houses and capitalism, and it was like a goddamn trainwreck. It's like those old nWo promos if Hall Nash and Hogan couldn't cut a promo to save themselves. Just curious, not wanting to start a fight here(I'm actually going to bed right after I post this. Been up for 18 hours now.), but how much ROH have you watched? Don't worry, it's a valid question. To answer, I used to follow it fairly regularly when it was Joe, Punk, Homicide, Low-Ki, Aries and so forth. When most of the guys I liked left, I sort of became disinterested. I'm just not that big a fan of the guys they have now. Not all of them are bad, mind you. I still like Delirious, and Hero and Castagnoli are pretty good, but the rest of them are just really bland, inexperienced guys who can't cut a promo. That's cool, because their fanbase doesn't require it. I don't hate ROH. I know my post was kind of condescending and negative, but I don't hate them. They put on matches their audience enjoys, and keep the IWC by and large satisfied. Good for them. They recognized the IWC market, and cater specifically toward them. That's a good business idea, and it's worked really well for them. What I mean, though, is that I just don't see them on the same level as TNA, who is transitioning between being an Indy company and a mainstream one. Angle, Joe, Christian, AJ, Booker, Roode, Kaz. These guys are main-eventers and solid in all aspects of their performance. Maybe Morishima and Danielson can out-wrestle them, but they can't out-entertain them, and that's what I think is most important. I don't know, maybe I'm wrong.

TNA has the way better roster but they push the wrong guys, the guys people dont care about ala WCW.
