I know the Pure doesn't count, but couldn't he technically be considered? all he needs is the Six-Man, and he'll have held every championship (excluding WOH) Additionally, he's won the Honor Rumble and Survival of the Fittest. If Lethal wins the six-man, he'll be the only person to ever win every possible honor ever eligible in ROH history.

So, did they call him Dragon Lee on the broadcast? Was there any reference to "Ryu Lee?"

Maybe this is a Kane, short term reign situation, which could be cool, but I’d think ROH would want to keep Rush sweet. He has a lot of options. PCO, not as many.

I think in the future, ROH should specifically just go along with the hottest stars and push 'em. Just stop thinking about losing 'em in a year or two to bigger companies (or getting old...), as there's always new talent somewhere. They thrived their best years with this mindset and that's when the promotion was actually hyped as best wrestling in the world. Staleness has been by far their biggest problem.

It is a good shock and Rush will be fine. ROH needs a little more feel good like this where people aren't talking about the behind the scenes BS and just happy with the in ring product

I don't know if he's out with Marty and Brodie. I don't know if VE is a package deal If they're a package deal them all leaving for what I would assume to be AEW is a huge deal. The prospect of PCO vs Moxley alone would be amazing.

I think PCO winning the belt is undoubtedly the right call, if only because it's the most interesting thing that's happened in ROH all year.
Yeah, Rush had a short reign, whatever, it's not like anyone especially cared about the fact he was champ or that it did anything really to reinvigorate interest in the product. Might as well swing for the fences in the desperate hope of getting people talking.

If I can ask, has anyone ever won a title in Mexico, Japan and The US in a year's span? Ultimo Dragon did it in a month and a half, once. Late 96.

So are the six man belts even still a thing? Now PCO's a double champion and best I can tell the titles have only been defended twice in the past six months.

I ordered the PPV last night and thought it was a decent show. I regularly attended dozens of ROH shows in New York and New Jersey between 2004-2010, but haven’t watched a thing from the company since then. It was a little sad to see how far ROH has fallen during this time. It really felt like just another indie show until the last two matches.
Briscoes/Lethal & Gresham was MOTN. Briscoes are still great and Jay still has off the charts charisma. Cool that they’ve been such a constant in ROH all these years and it’s hard to say they’ve underachieved, but I couldn’t help but wonder if they could have amounted to so much more. I was really impressed by Gresham and would love to see more of him.
PCO lived up to the hype. The gimmick is ridiculous...he literally got recharged by jumper cables while horror music played mid match...but it somehow worked. Some of the bumps he took were wild and it was cool to see him win the belt.
Everything else was more or less forgettable. I was largely ordering for Marty Scurll and PCO, and was disappointed with the underwhelming Scurll match. Bully Ray/Haskins gets Worst Match of the Night. Total snooze.
Like I said, sad to see ROH fall from a must-see hotbed of talent and angles to a run-of-the-mill indie promotion. No regrets as the show was only $35, but I probably won’t be ordering another anytime soon.

Oh f no...
{Spoiler}{SPOILER: CLICK TO SHOW} Proving that they haven't learned anything from this past year, their next great idea is to have another Bully Ray feud, this time with Maria Manic.

Slex and Rey Horus are definitely good signings.

So not exactly a send off for Scurll. Wonder what the deal is going forward.
