I figured this could use a dedicated thread. Despite the company’s transition, their big events always make for some fun

Now that the title match was called off due to injury...
Are there any matches announced for this show?

Depends on if you count "Samoa Joe vs Shane Taylor or Dalton Castle" as an announcement or only solidified matches. But yeah, it's kind of weird how close they are cutting it. Surely Lucha Bros, Athena, or the Embassy should have an opponent lined up by now.

The lack of announced matches ain't great; they've built some storylines over the last couple of months and could do something there, but you want to know what you're heading towards.
That said, I was thinking of getting a ticket, anyway, since I haven't been to a proper ROH show in too many years...but I will 100% do all I can to be there if we get Shane Taylor vs. Samoa Joe, hot damn I didn't realize I wanted that match until they showed the graphic for this mini-tournament.

I feel like he'd be the one to go with since we've seen Dalton more. I'm a big Castle fan, but Shane needs some time to shine, too.

I'm thinking Bandido or Rush taking on Claudio would be interesting considering they are both former ROH Champions.
Scorpio Sky would also be an interesting choice especially considering his history with ROH.

They SHOULD do Athena vs. Willow ideally.

Scorpio Sky would also be an interesting choice especially considering his history with ROH. Scorpio Sky in a title match on a PPV would be so unbelievably disappointing. Right now though, the possiblities seem to be... Athena vs Willow- Women's title Joe vs Dalton Castle- TV title Claudio vs ?- ROH title The Kingdom vs Lucha Bros- tag titles (genuinely sad they haven't interacted a single time despite them doing this Kingdom build for like 2 months) Garcia vs Shibata- Pure title (this was the build but Shibata not being in ROH in six weeks has made it collapse) Outside of that...I got nothing. Embassy has completely squashed every opponent for months and there are no three man teams left. They could do Diamante/Leila Grey blow-off, but that's not exactly setting the world on fire. They pretty much need to do a run of special matches here because they have really little depth or plan.

seems like TK's style to wait until the week of the show and say "f*** it give 'em Bandido vs. Vikingo, Komander vs. Swerve and uhhh can we get Okada out here? we can? alright Okada vs. Joe"

Shibata vs. Garcia for the Pure Title is official. That's a good choice. I didn't even bother listing Shibata earlier in the thread because I felt like Khan might not have access to him when NJPW's in one of its busiest times of the year, though I guess given Shibata's not personally in the G1 tournament, this might be one of the times he can be most accessible. I'm guessing Shibata likely retains. If Garcia wins, super, but I also kind of feel like it'd be something of a rehash of his first reign. I would kind of rather see someone get it who hasn't had a chance yet, but I am not sure who'd qualify who Shibata would put over. Maaaaybe Lee Moriarty?
