For the upcoming show in Chicago, is the Danielson/Joe match still for the title? It doesn't say anything about the title on the card. I really wouldn't care since there's no time limit, no dq, and anything goes. That makes up for it.

Non-title.
Danielson said he only has to defend his belt once a month, and he defended it against Aries, so no go for Joe. |

I just bought Unified off the ROH website.
If it sucks I will kill every ROH fan in the world. |

Soooooo...I couldn't wait for my order and got a sneak peek
at the Broxbourne show, since I was there and all. Myself and friends are on the hard camera pretty much the entire way ![]() Haven't really sat down and watched the whole show but BJ-Go comes across better on tape than I remember, particularly as the ring is smaller than usual and so the handhelds are able to pick up the wrestlers' expressions a lot clearer - something that Go is pretty awesome with. And yes, the Sydal/Richards vs Briscoes tag is as awesome as I remember it

Saturday night's ROH show was pretty damn sweet. The only problem I had was that it simply felt like a set-up for the announced Chicago Spectacular shows coming up on December 8 & 9. Other than that, though, the show was really good.
Shingo put on a great match, beating Roderick. There was a sick DDT through a table at ringside. It looked like Strong just folded in half with the table. Jacobs siding with Lacey and taking out Cabana after their tag match was done really well. They almost had me thinking that Cabana and Jimmy would both leave Lacey, but Jimmy's a lovesick bitch and bloodied Cabana with Lacey's shoe. Whitmer got a huge pop when he came out for the save. Corino was jaw-jacking with the crowd all match, and it was hilarious. Sinclair almost got fired for reversing his decision on the winner of the match, and the crowd was eating it up. Chicago fucking hates Sinclair. Aries/Daniels was a bit of a letdown. It wasn't that the match was bad; it's just that I expected more out of it. Daniels did a top rope palm strike followed by the best Angel's Wings I've ever seen to pick up the victory. It seems as though these two are going to have a program against each other, so it's only going to get better from here. Albright impressed the hell out of me. He kicked the shit out of Trik Davis, and I can't wait to see him again on the 8 & 9. Both Sydal and Richards beat the Briscoes. Sydal/Jay put on what could be considered the match of the night, while Richards sucked ass like he always does. I don't see that guy's appeal. He's so fucking boring to watch. Danielson/Joe started out fast and didn't slow down at all. The action was all over the place, so I couldn't see most of the middle of the match but everything I could see was great. Danielson got a nightstick from under the ring and beat Joe with it. Joe with Danielson in the head with an industrial fan. Joe choked out Danielson with Sinclair's belt for the win. There was even a, "You're going to get your fucking head kicked in" chant. The big announcement at the show was the Chicago Spectacular on December 8 & 9. Front row tickets went up to $50 in Chicago, but that's fine by me. Joe challenged Danielson to a steel cage title match for the Spectacular. HOLY SHIT. I'm hyped for that match right now, and I have more than a month to wait. Last edited by ron the dial; 10-30-2006 at 11:30 AM. |

Quick question.... Does Shingo have his Masahiro Chono/Island Team 2000 look going on?

Seriously when is Dragon going to drop the belt? It's really time for someone else to have a run

I'm hoping for him to drop it at Chicago Spectacular, but that's just because I want to see the title change hands. I'm still putting my money on Homicide winning the title. It may be the obvious choice, but that won't make it any less important when it happens.

Incase you guys haven't heard, which I'm sure you have, American Dragon is set to work all the NOAH dates on the upcoming Winter Navigation tour.

If Danielson defends the belt against Joe at the Chicago Spectacular, he won't have to defend the title at Final Battle. So unless Danielson is somehow forced into defending the belt twice in one month, I've just realized that it probably won't be a title match in Chicago. Damn. I hope this matter is addressed soon.
Edit - The Newswire says that the title is on the line for the Danielson/Joe match, so I wonder what that means for Final Battle. Will Homicide's wish supercede Danielson's contract? Last edited by ron the dial; 10-30-2006 at 09:15 PM. |

Cornette promised Homicide the ROH title shot at Final Battle 2006 if Joe and him beat the Briscoes in Manhattan. He has to defend it

True, but being a heel in ROH isn't exactly easy... Although if he costed Homicide his title shot....

Yeah...... Yeah
![]() Cabana/Homicide made sense. Corino/Homicide, not really..... Corino needs to come back in December and screw him out of the title

Another step towards ROH's global domination. Awesome news. It's good to see them branching out to Japan so early on in their existence. This can only mean good things.

ROH in Japan will be amazing, I just wonder how they'll do it... Will it be ROH wrestlers facing off with each other on a NOAH/Dragongate show, with a few interpromotional matches, or will they all be interpromotional matches? We'll see.
BTW, in another thread there was a comment that no promotion, except WWE, has turned a profit. Correct me if I'm wrong, but ROH is turning a profit. That makes me happy. Also, Doi is the amazing. |

Yeah as far as I know they are making a profit, not sure if it's particularly huge but it's still more than most companies can manage.

Morishima vs Joe is ON, 16/2 in NYC. Kinda wish they'd waited a bit, he's going to be on the first 4 shows of the 5th year festival, personally I would've built him a bit on the first 3 so anyone who doesn't know him can see what he's about, then have him fight Joe on the last show he's booked. ALTHOUGH, I understand they want it in NYC, since that's pretty much their best crowd right now and it'll be a sellout, plus the initial confrontation happened there.
Hopefully Joe will be close to 100% by then too. Anyway

He's also getting a title shot....
I don't know what's a more interesting match up, Joe Vs Morishima, or Homicide Vs Morishima. |

i will be seeing morishima v. homicide most likely on 2/17 in philly. i'll be interested to see how the fans take to him and how the match as a whole turns out. so far the philly card is a little underwhelming currently.davey richards v. samoa joe is the big match so far and since i'm not sold on davey richards i can't say i'm looking forward to it. so far i am looking forward to chris daniels and matt sydal defending their titles against a yet to be named opponent mainly cause i love the team of daniels and sydal.
