Chris Is Awesome
 
Apparently Chris Hero has 'agreed a deal' with WWE. Still looking for confirmation.

Supreme Olajuwon 09-25-2009 10:46 AM

Says who

CSL 09-25-2009 10:59 AM

People's that knows people's (a journo type over here) Hasn't popped up anywhere yet so maybe they've jumped the gun. Still early in America though. In the mean time, feel free to perv on this John Morrison t-shirt

Fignuts 09-25-2009 11:18 AM

I want that.

kareru 09-25-2009 12:23 PM

sounds like WWE and TNA are gutting ROH (again)

rumour has it that colt cobana is going to tna

Mr. JL 09-25-2009 12:29 PM

I think ROH is on its last legs.

Fignuts 09-25-2009 12:39 PM

They should see if they can bring in a couple noah guys to fill the gap.

word has it that a few cheques have been bouncing lately

Heros Welcome 09-25-2009 01:16 PM

Well this has got my attention

blake639raw 09-25-2009 01:52 PM

Damn, I hope this isn't true. This sucks balls for ROH if this is the case.

Chavo Classic 09-25-2009 01:57 PM

I'm asking him via facebook now. Not that he'll answer or even have the authority to confirm.

CSL 09-25-2009 02:01 PM

Apparently Power Slam (the magazine) are reporting it on their Facebook page (they have a lot of contacts) but it hasn't popped up elsewhere. If he is going, I wonder if any kind of announcement would be held off until after the weekend, being as it's McGuinness and Danielson's last shows.

Heros Welcome 09-25-2009 02:05 PM

Well I guess we'll just wait an see.

I kinda hope its true. Don't get me wrong I love Hero in ROH but hes pushing 30 and hes still in the indies, I hope this is his big break.

Plus what I would give to hear a CHRIS IS AWESOME *clap clap clapclapclap* on WWE programming.

blake639raw 09-25-2009 02:16 PM

If this is true, I expect Castagnoli and Black to be signed soon too. I've never jumped on the "ROH is in trouble" bandwagon, but damn, I don't know. I guess we'll just have to wait & see.

CSL 09-25-2009 02:19 PM

Apparently Black's contract is pretty tight. Dunno about Claudio.

kareru 09-25-2009 02:20 PM

if the worst does happen and roh goes under, at least we still have dragon gate usa, hopefully they will get their own weekly t.v show

Hanso Amore 09-25-2009 02:29 PM

Fuck off Kareru, You are a piece of shit. Take your opinion and shove it up your dirty cunt asshole.

what's with the hostility?

Hanso Amore 09-25-2009 02:48 PM

I dunno, Im bored. Like fucking with people.

kareru handled himself quite gracefully there.

Holy mother of god, I want this shirt.

What Would Kevin Do? 09-25-2009 06:00 PM

Please let this be true.

It saddens me that ROH is dying, but goddamn, if WWE takes the cream of the crop and treats them decently, I can live with it.

Don't get me wrong, I love ROH, but Smackdown, ECW, and Superstars has been kicking out some damn good wrestling. WWE has been putting on some of it's best matches in a LONG time in the last year.

100% agreed :y:

What Would Kevin Do? 09-25-2009 06:11 PM

A quick follow up thought. ROH isn't "dying" per se. I doubt it will die. However, I could see them having to seriously cut back, and return to being a smaller indy promotion for awhile. Basically less shows, less DVDS, cut spending in an attempt to build themselves back up, and build up new talent in the process, while pushing the guys who stay to fill the voids left when other guys take off.

thecc 09-25-2009 06:13 PM

I really think with all these guys leaving, Roderick Strong is finally gonna get to shine as the main guy in roh.

Oh god....

Don't get me wrong, I love Strong in the ring, but... I don't see him leading a company. I'd never pay to see him, and I don't think he has the personality to really have an amazing feud.

Juan 09-25-2009 07:54 PM

I'd rather Tyler Black get a shot

I like Roddy too, but my one friend really doesnt. Back at the last Detroit show, Roddy replaced Danileson in the tag match with Kenta, and my friend yelled out "That is not a suitable replacement!"

blake639raw 09-25-2009 09:28 PM

Roderick Strong has the charisma of a frozen block of peas. Nay to him as champion. I'd rather see Claudio, Davey, Steen, Black, or lots of other guys as champ before him.

mike adamle 09-25-2009 09:38 PM

Claudio or Davey as champ would be epic.

Skippord 09-26-2009 01:13 AM

Chris Hero in the WWE would make me incredibly happy

Kami Raki 09-26-2009 01:15 AM

Hero in the WWE? I'd love it. He has the "WWE size" and all, not to mention he's a great worker.

Mr. Nerfect 09-26-2009 03:25 AM

That John Morrison shirt is one that I would actually buy. Morrison is money.

As for Chris Hero joining the WWE? I love it. I mean, ROH has never really used Hero too well. Gabe was apparently not much of a fan of his. The man can wrestle, he can talk, he's charismatic as all hell. He'd at least be an amazing mid-carder in the WWE. And he can go even further than that if things turn out right for him.

I also doubt that ROH will die. ROH has always been a place for the best talent not signed to the WWE or TNA. Granted, now that the WWE have changed what they look for in a lot of talent, ROH's pool has dipped into the WWE's, and of course Vince offers more money; but there are still a large number of guys out there that the WWE wouldn't sign, or that just aren't interested.

For example: What the fuck is taking ROH so long to book Paul London and Brian Kendrick for some shows? Both are tremendous talents, and London has burnt bridges with both the WWE and TNA. He seems like a perfect candidate to become the new "Heart of ROH." Brian Kendrick also apparently interested, and can at least be used for some great matches.

Skippord 09-26-2009 03:41 AM

Isn't London trying to be an actor now though?

if Chris Hero appears in a WWE ring I will ejaculate semen all over the place

People said that about Cabana.

Richards is money. I'm surprised he wasn't picked up along with McGuinness and Danielson last month.

afaik they both live on the west coast and so are expensive to fly in

Anybody Thrilla 09-26-2009 11:47 AM

Not if they book with Hotwire.com!
