Dude, I could see the ROH fans absolutely despising Sweeney if he were champ. BOOK IT, GABE!!!!! Indeed. Sweeney is liked by smarks (and rightly so), but as champion the ROH fans would hate him. Incidentally, I think it would be extremely fun to book ROH. You would have to come up with heels that smarks could REALLY hate, but still pay to see. It's a good kind of hate. The 'I can't WAIT to see someone KO this arrogant f***' hatred, rather than the 'Oh GOD Cena is STILL the champion?' hate. Or apathy, really.

He once told LuFisto "You need a cock to wrestle, honey!" after he cheated to beat her. Good stuff. That is awesome.

See: Jimmy Rave You know, I saw my first ever ROH show a few days ago (Manhattan Mayhem), and I've already seen all of Jimmy Rave that I care to. Love to hate the Embassy, but having THAT guy as the 'crown jewel' is just sort of a disappointment.

This may be my most successful thread to date. Well, wrestling related anyways.

But hey, it takes diff'rent strokes to rule the world.

But hey, it takes diff'rent strokes to rule the world. Well, I'll formulate an educated opinion when I watch more ROH, but all I saw him do on that show was scowl a little. Plus, I can't like any man that uses the Styles/Rave Clash, which ranks right up there with the Battering Ram and People's Elbow as 'least impactful finisher ever'. And since I don't want to kill poor Spanky's thread with a Jimmy Rave discussion, youtube.com/watch?v=MH3q1lQo3G0

I appreciate the discussion, but I can't let all the Spankamaniacs down with a serious discourse on heels. It's WACKY FUN TIME. Featuring Colt Cabana. youtube.com/watch?v=SGipUtu4LogGANGSTA BOOGIE!
