Misawa comes to ROH in November... (Official ROH thread Ver 2.0)
So, Misawa said on a talk show that him and Joe Higuchi would be coming to ROH in November... INteresting note, is that Joe is generally the guy who reads the declaration before said matches... So it's possible Misawa might be defending the GHC Heavyweight belt in ROH... Second defense of the belt in ROH possibly...

Shit. I will hitchhike to NYC (likely location) just to see fucking MISAWA.

Although, the only ones who could realistically hang with him are Morishima, Danielson and Joe, assuming Joe is done with TNA soon.

The first time I saw Misawa live I didn't really know alot about him as I didn't follow Japanese wrestling, after seeing him, wow! That guy can fucking move!

You want to know why this is such a great thing? Just watch this:

This is huge for ROH, as it will get their fanbase excited, and it will get them a lot of further exposure in Japan. Like a lot. Misawa is a God over there. By the sounds of it, he's got some people tuning in over here, too.

I would hope that if he came over here, he would defend the GHC Heavyweight Championship. In my perfect vision, Samoa Joe would take a walk from TNA when his contract expires later this year, hopefully in time for it to be Misawa vs. Joe for the GHC Heavyweight Championship.

Misawa is past his prime, I suppose, but ROH has gotten the best out of guys who come over, and the fans will hopefully really get Misawa into the great match zone he is capable of. It will probably be one of ROH's more iconic appearances.

I have to say 2 things. Misawa and Kobashi are seriously two of the greatest wrestlers ever.

Also, I don't care what anyone says, I absolutely love NOAH's style of matches (King's Road esque style)

Part of me would love to see a defend the GHC title one night against someone like Danielson, and another night, if he did two, fight for the ROH title. Granted Morishima Vs Misawa is nothing new ( assuming Shima is still the champ), if Shima won, despite him being a NOAH talent, the ROH champ going over Misawa would be huge, and would be even bigger for whoever dethrones Shima.

So I guess that makes Instant Classin = RoH?

Oh wait, Instant Classic doesn't have predictable booking with long overdrawn 90+ minute matches that usually end in time limit draws.

EDIT (1:28PM) However I am fairly sure that Instant Classic jobs convincingly and cleanly to NOAH wrestlers at every oppurtunity to appease them. This may be the only thing they have in common.

It's certainly seemed that way at times. And I remember Bryan Danielson having 4 consecutive title defenses ending in time limit draw. And while I haven't seen too many spot heavy matches other than those involving Jack Evans or Jimmy Jacobs I will point out that a lot of their psychology makes the matches look really obvious that it's fake. Colt Cabana's matches instantly come to mind. All honesty everytime he horses around and acts like a goofball mid-hold while his opponent does NOTHING to get the advantage makes me shake my head. Same thing with Austin Aries' stupid Head-Stand "counter".

I'm going to agree with IC on ROH. Sure they can do every move under the sun, but can they work a match that tell a story instead of match built on spot after spot after spot. And not a dog named spot, not my spot, but a high spot.

So, you are telling me that 2 people in the entire promotion don't do crazy spots and that is suppose to redeem the entire promotion. That is like saying because of Taz, Beniot, and Malenko, ECW wasn't a promotion based on garabage wrestling.

That is about as unfounded as me saying that everyone in the WWE is a spot monkey. Which guys in ROH are you referring to?

There is definitely more psychology in ROH than WWE. The last match I saw in the WWE with good psychology was probably something with Chris Benoit, Mr. Kennedy, MVP or Matt Hardy. That's going to go bye-bye with the WWE trying to turn SmackDown! into a RAW clone, only without the stars to support itself.

The quote "it takes talent to get ahead in WWE" is laughable. They have plenty of talented guys. NONE are being used to their full potential, except for maybe John Morrison.

Those were the first two who came to mind, plus a bunch of guys I'd use as an example have left the company recently. Homicide, Colt, Joe, Daniels were all smart when it came to matches.

Aries, Pearce, Whitmer, Strong, Claudio, Albright, and others are pretty good. ROH has been good with getting away from the spot monkey matches. Those spot crazy matches are usually reserved for the Briscoes

I have seen Chris Daniels and Soma Joe work. They still don't use that much psychology.

Now granted, I live in KC. I have seen a couple of ROH matches at best and all I remember is a bunch of spot monkeys flipping around trying to out spot each other. And I'm not about to go buy some dvd just to see more of that crap. Now they could have changed since last I saw. But I doubt it. Plus I'll start caring about a guy once he signs a WWE contract.

Anyone can get over with a bunch of smark by doing a million moves. It takes talent to get ahead in WWE.

I'll give you that one. Sometimes the matches in ROH reach too long for "epic." ROH has its problems, it doesn't always has perfect booking, and sometimes, yes, matches do go on too long. Almost every match the WWE has is too short, though. I think I'd rather longer than shorter.

What I'm saying is that the guys in ROH are allowed to be more talented, and compete at the level they are capable of, which is very good for most of them.

They used to about 5 years ago, now there are about as many guys in ROH who know ring pstchology as there are in WWE.

And at least the spotfests you get in ROH are somewhat entertaining. In WWE, if a match lacks psychology you get two guys throwing around common, boring moves and rest holds for 10minutes.

Also, back to your original statement of needing talent to succeed in WWE, how many guys on the roster who have never been champion are more talented than Cena, Batista, or Lashley?

A lot.
