You know... having Bally's Sports doesn't solve ROH's problem of TV since, in my area, they show the weekly program at 1am on Saturday mornings. Being a DVR show is why it's hard to follow this. They also upload new episodes each Monday on Fite at 7pm. It’s free and probably the easiest way to follow ROH.

I might be missing something. But how is it being a DVR show making it hard to follow? The only wrestling shows I watch "live" are MLW Fusion and Limitless Wrestling The Road. Everything else I DVR and watch later or catch on demand. ROH I know it airs on Stadium,but I end up catching it Monday or Tuesday off FITE.

Taking a peak at the show just to see who ROH seem to be experimenting with;
Max The Impailer is there.
I...I didn’t expect that from you, ROH. Pretty cool.

If they want to build a women's division from scratch with the available talent on the indies, they made the best possible choices.

from the latest Eck's File: no offense Ian Riccaboni, you did great work with Colt Cabana and do great work with Caprice Coleman (all you need now is for Claudio Castagnoli to come back for commentary so you can have a Triple-Double C of partners), but Dave Prazak and Lenny Leonard has always been my favorite commentary team in ROH and i was upset he got dropped during the ROH/Gabe/Sal Hamaoui split. i especially loved it whenever they could call a comedy match, as they would play it dead straight. a notable example would be Colt Cabana vs. Spanky from "Redemption" in 2005. Cabana started working over Spanky's butt with chops, kicks and atomic drops, and Lenny and Prazak started comparing it to the Andersons working over a body part and him having found the chink in Spanky's armor. another favorite was the Sweet n' Sour Gauntlet match from 2008. Roderick Strong's first opponent is Bobby Dempsey, who Roddy instantly gets to lay down for a quick three after throwing his shirt as Larry Sweeney to distract him, and L&P sell it by acting like Roddy just beat the ever loving crap out of him ("Well give Bobby Dempsey credit, he gave it his all. He was in there with a superior athlete"). so, yes, i approve of this

I mean I know it gets slightly confusing with them being in a women's division, but I think you take what you can get as a non-binary wrestler.

I am finding it hard to watch the match despite the talent due to the incorrect pronouns for Max.

I am finding it hard to watch the match despite the talent due to the incorrect pronouns for Max. I was unaware and we did not get to meet Max face to face prior to calling the bout. The Bubble scenario produces some tricky scenarios in terms of meeting and learning about a new talent ahead of calling their bouts. It was not intentional and we were unaware. Additionally, talent in these first rounds of bouts are in with us for the first time and they might not know it is OK to reach out with something like preferred pronouns. I don't want to spoil anything but you will see Max again and the appropriate pronouns are used. I've already apologized to they and they communicated that they were nervous because 1.) It was their first match and 2.) The Maryland State Athletic Commission has us completely walled off from *everyone* on taping days and at the hotel. This is on me and it was never my intent to not use the appropriate pronouns.

With ROH giving Max an opportunity, I'd like to hope that maybe they will let Megan Bayne wrestle a match or two.

Small thing I'm really digging about ROH right now is that they have three mens singles titles, but they're making it clear that people who want to challenge for belts need to designate which title they want to focus on. Opens up a whole storytelling layer where someone might decide that they can get their foot in the door better with a shot at, say, the TV title, so they decide to put their effort there in a division that doesn't quite have the same level of main eventers in it as the World title scene. I wish more promotions did this: like, much as I love NJPW they spent too many years not really making it clear why some singles wrestlers would be willing to challenge for the non-IWGP heavyweight belts (IC, US, NEVER); different belts should either have different gimmicks attached to them (Pure title is the perfect example of this, as are some promotions' TV titles) or there should be clear lines stating which belts are considered the most valuable and what tier or level you need to be on the challenge for them, so something like this helps.
It really is the ultimate contrast to WWE as a television product: ROH is emphasizing it's structures and rules and using them to further stories, characters, and angles since the wrestlers get to play off of them, while WWE seemingly lacks any structure whatsoever and just allows things to happen with little rhyme or reason or consequence. Not every show should operate the same way, obviously, diversity in wrestling presentation is a good thing, but you create a show with structure so that stories are easier to tell and so that it means something when someone defies the rules of said structure.
