Women’s seems to be Athena vs Martinez and Tag being FTR vs Gunn Club. I’d consider even dropping the title to Athena to really cement this heel turn. FTR vs Gunns is… kinda a far drop after two MOTY contenders in facing the Briscoes. But I don’t know if you want to run match 3 this soon.

Wonder what the Pure and Trios titles will be. Joe vs Wardlow seems a neat lock for the TV title as well but those other two titles have nothing set up really. Probably be Yuta vs Garcia again but I hope they pull off a surprise (Angelico would be awesome to see step into Pure rules, but highly unlikely).

Those graphics are sick though

We need to see Dalton & the Boys vs. 2.0 / Hager for the six-man-titles!

Know what I take it back if they're getting Gunn Club as an actual PPV challenger FTR are right to be mad and should shit in Tony's desk drawers

Haven't looked at tickets prices yet but I imagine I'll probably go.  Chance to see Jericho live at least, and that 3PM start time is golden.

ETA: $25 for a lower level bleacher isn't bad, but $20 for parking is ridiculous.  Unfortunate that, and this is true, Arlington is the biggest city in the United States without a public transport system.

Hope we get an added stip for Jericho-Claudio like a Ladder War or Fight Without Honor.

Jericho's laser eyes make him look like that alien that abducted him

Considering the story so far has been Jericho wanting to desecrate the legacy of RoH, a Fight Without Honor would fit.

4PM? Cutting it a bit close with my work schedule lol

[Facetious]

Would be cool if they put more effort into this PPV than the 2 matches we have.

[Some Guy]

Charging $40 for a PPV where you have two matches announced a week out (both of which involving feuds that are so beyond stale that the interest level is very low) with only two more really super likely matches is certainly a strategy.

My thought is, I don't think Tony planned on ROH crossing over with AEW this long

I think he thought there'd be a TV Deal announced already, but the WB/Discovery merger delayed it, and f***ed it up (Among a lot of other things as anyone who has paid attention has seen), which is why they said they'd have an update on the Deal at this PPV. I think it's held up a lot of stuff for ROH, and also, some people here are tired of it being on AEW TV as prominent as it's been since the Summer

Final Battle hopefully gives us info on this so ROH can start feeling like its own entity, own arena, standalone talents etc, it'll be best for everyone.

With Tony not putting any effort or proper build into this PPV, he could at least give us some random matches that people would want to see.

Bandido v Takeshita
Swerve v AR Fox
FTR v The Kingdom
Bucks v Briscoes

That stip both makes and kills this match for me. It would make perfect sense for Castagnoli to win and finally end the JAS/BCC(or whats left of it) feud, but I you and I both know that Claudio would look bitchin' in that purple hat and to be honest, I would prefer Castagnoli in the JAS sports entertaining than being a SRS wrestler.

FTR v Assboys?
Joe v Wardlow ?

Dalton Castle v anyone
Willow v anyone

There's still time to make this enjoyable, but I wouldn't pay 40$ for any of it (personally)

They can have the Briscoes wrestle...uhh...some other team.

[Nosnorb]

Imagine the uproar if FTR job to The Ass Boys at this PPV.

[Zone Was Wrong]

Yeah, have zero interest in this ppv. Even though it's obvious what some of the match ups are, nothing here is grabbing me.
