[Oak: Certified Jade Hater]

Honestly, I'm baffled that they don't partner with Shimmer again. I remember a fantastic MsChif vs. Sara Del Rey match for the Shimmer Title that made me a fan of both women. If the talent is there, why not reach out?

Also, if I'm fantasy booking, Barbi Hayden is my go to. Girl can go inside that ring.

Shimmer, last I checked, was tied into WWN, which means ROH can't touch it.

So with the WWE World and TNA Still Exists Titles both vacant, the top champion in the US is Jay Lethal!

Ahh, but now there is no possible dispute or excuse for the fools to lean on! He is, with all due respect to Mr. Martini, the truth. Other pretenders tried to play catch up and it broke them while Jay Lethal continues to prove himself to be the Greatest First Generation Wrestler and Best in the World.

I see that the wrestling gods have listened to my prayers regarding getting Homophobe McBeard off my TV, and decided to put him on commentary instead. great.

Also I love how the Bullet Club are so incapable of getting booed in ROH they're just faces.

If you're talking about Mark, name one time he's said something homophobic.

Holy shit. You are right. Add the fact he has 2 world titles, he cam claim he's the number one guy in wrestling at the moment.

I really hope big things come from Dalton Castle in 2016. He's way more than just a mid-show comedy act; he's the real deal, over as hell, and one brilliant wrestler.

I'm not too fond of his story with Silas right now, but I enjoy the edge they're giving him and I hope it continues and he evolves.

I think Dalton just had the bad luck of breaking big in ROH when they had a lot of other plates spinning. I think 2016 is gonna be a big year for him.

Picked up my first two offical DVD's from the ROH shop yesterday; A Jay Lethal, and Adam Cole, compilation pack. Even though the Australian prices are ridiculous - 41 dollars for those two DVD's - I think it'll be worth it as both look like fantastic sets and they're two of my favourites.

ROH STARS RETURN TO ENGLAND!



The top stars of Ring of Honor head to the United Kingdom to engage in transatlantic dream matches against the stars of Preston City Wrestling on the weekend of November 27th with four huge shows, PCW after-parties, and meet and greets with all of the stars headlining the weekend’s events!

Ring of Honor will send World Champion Jay Lethal, Television Champion Roderick Strong, former World Champion Adam Cole, “Party Peacock” Dalton Castle, Cedric Alexander, reDRagon, and Delirious to stand toe to toe against PCW’s best, a group that includes the bruising PCW Heavyweight Champion Dave Mastiff, PCW Light Heavyweight Champion El Ligero, PCW Tag Team Champions Team Single, and more!

The weekend extravaganza is being dubbed Supershow of Honor 2 and is slated to be bigger and better than last year’s history-making event! Last year, reDRagon were nearly the unanimous MVPs of the three-day, four-event series of the super show, defeating the Briscoes, Team Single, and the Decade, building momentum they carried through the end their 322-day reign as champions. Additionally, Mastiff defeated Cole in a match that showed the globe what all the excitement is about as it relates to the current PCW Champ.

Who will this year’s breakout star or tag team be? With a number of wrestlers signed for action in Supershow of Honor 2, it is almost anybody’s guess! Continue to visit ROHWrestling.com and prestoncitywrestling.com for the latest match information as they are signed.

For our UK fans, don’t forget to buy your tickets early – last year’s weekend was a major success with three cards selling out and we don’t want you to get locked out! This is your only chance to see the stars of ROH and PCW collide in 2015 and you don’t want to miss it!

ACH/Cedric Alexander was a damn good match though I am not sold on the whole "unsafe" stuff costing Alexander though. I get where what they're doing but it just looks odd.
