Jay Briscoe defends his title TOMORROW against BJ Whitmer! Also signed for the show is "Mr. Wrestling" Kevin Steen vs. "The Zombie Princess" Jimmy Jacobs. Jimmy Jacobs has been on quite a roll as of late and Steen has been on a slump, should be interesting for the 30 in attendance.

Also on the show Kyle Matthews will debut and take on "Unbreakable" Michael Elgin!

I remember Mike being a pretty big fan of ROH not long ago.

At least he's totally living his new gimmick.

whiteyford 05-18-2013 08:55 AM

It's not a gimmick he really is this dumb.

Was a pretty big fan up until about early 2009, maybe the end of Nigel's reign to be exact. Then the product steadily got worse. The last show I remember being really invested in was Final Battle 2010.

iPPV has kind of killed ROH for me. Since iPPV, all the indys wanna have contracts for talents making them exclusive to that promotion. Really kills a lot of the dream matches that were happening in 2002-2008 and makes things repetitive and boring. Plus Davey Richards and Kevin Steen are the main eventers now, I like Steen's character, but come on.

That's why PWG is king of indy wrestling today. They don't have iPPV's and can pick from basically anyone not in WWE or TNA.

so this was a pretty dumb thread huh

mike adamle 05-18-2013 05:59 PM

Only a few more hours until the show. I'm really anticipating the main event to see if they follow through and let BJ Whitmer win tonight.

mike adamle 05-19-2013 06:22 AM

Jay Briscoe retained the title last night against BJ Whitmer! Steve Corino announced on the show that "The Icon" MATT HARDY will be challenging for the belt at the June TV Tapings!

mike adamle 05-19-2013 06:34 AM

Although Jay Briscoe already has scheduled title defenses before that against Davey Richards one night, Eddie Edwards some other night, and Mark Briscoe at Best In The World. All of them should be fun matches.

Mr. Nerfect 05-19-2013 07:28 PM

Switch the title to either Davey Richards or Eddie Edwards (whichever is better these days) and then have Mark Briscoe get all pissy at whoever took his brother's title. Richards beats Mark Briscoe and then Matt Hardy wins the ROH Title from Richards after The Briscoes costs him the match. SCUM is on top of the world and The Briscoes and American Wolves have a tag team feud where The Briscoes are well and truly the bad guys.

mike adamle 05-19-2013 07:36 PM

I doubt that'll happen. What's more likely is Jay will beat Davey and Eddie and lose to Mark at Best In The World. Mark will then lose to Hardy on TV. Then Hardy will eventually lose to Michael Elgin.

Mr. Nerfect 05-20-2013 01:00 AM

I don't think Mark will win the title. Unless he turns on Jay hard.

Mr. Nerfect 05-20-2013 01:01 AM

Matt Hardy shouldn't be ROH World Champion, but I can actually see ROH putting it on him to try and get some attention for themselves.

mike adamle 05-20-2013 04:12 PM

Oh I definatley see them putting it on Matt Hardy with the way this SCUM angle is going.

mike adamle 05-20-2013 04:13 PM

Even if Mark doesn't win the title from Jay, Jay will lose it to Matt probably.

AJHayes 05-21-2013 10:24 AM

I'm sure that he just assumed that everyone knew he was a stupid redneck and that people would forgive him for his mental deficiencies.

He practiced free speech, he's allowed to have his own opinion, but, that doesn't mean that by using his right to free speech to express his opinion that others won't use their right to free speech to call him out for being a bigoted douche bag.

mike adamle 05-21-2013 04:46 PM

Yeah

#1-norm-fan 05-21-2013 07:31 PM

Wait, didn't Mark Briscoe just lose his shot at the TV title? Now he's going for the World title?

mike adamle 05-21-2013 08:10 PM

Yeah, they're brothers and Best In The World is in Baltimore, close to their home town. I like how Michael Elgin beat Jay Lethal at Supercard of Honor (WrestleMania weekend) for #1 Contender of the ROH World Title. Since then Jay Briscoe beat Steen for the belt, then he defended it against Adam Cole and BJ Whitmer. He's scheduled to defend it against Davey Richards next. Eddie Edwards after that. His brother Mark Briscoe gets the next shot. And then Matt Hardy gets his shot the next night at the TV Tapings. Michael Elgin nowhere in that lineup lol.

mike adamle 05-22-2013 06:56 AM

Apparently Michael Elgin had a classic match against ACH at the show last week.

mike adamle 05-23-2013 01:10 PM

Just announced for the Best in the World iPPV: "Wrestling's Worst Nightmare" "Mr. Wrestling" Kevin Steen vs. "The Self Proclaimed Icon" Matt Hardy!!

scatterbrain28 05-24-2013 08:54 AM

I wonder if Jake will break the fourth wall and have a heel turn as a homophobic, bigoted redneck. I could see that being true if he gets booed in house shows in liberal towns.

mike adamle 05-24-2013 09:03 AM

I doubt it. The corporate ROH is pretty afraid of taking any chances when it comes to fun booking.

mike adamle 05-24-2013 09:05 AM

So it's looking like the team of redDRagon is gonna defend the ROH World Tag Team Championships at the Best In The World iPPV event against C & C Wrestle Factory!!!!!
