the word
I haven't seen much RoH. I have seen their shoot tapes, but I don't like indy stuff because the crowd is annoying or the announcers suck. |

And the fans? Are they chanting 'This is awesome' at a chop?

This match is fucking awesome, no doubt. Easily one of the best in ROH's brief history. Check out Danielson and London's 2 out of 3 falls match at Epic Encounter if you liked that match.

They're actually fairly subdued. Similar to a Japanese crowd. A few dueling chants through out the match (maybe three in the 80 minute contest) but no. They are not a TNA crowd.
I do have to say though if you aren't into 80's (maybe even more 70's) style wrestling just ignore this and move on with your business, this won't be for you. |

Yes, the Funker was the definition of a technical wrestler back then, he brought the same thing to the table that Am Dragon and Aries do here.

For a change of pace with Aries, watch Aries vs. Joe from Final Battle 2004
For what wrestling should be like in 10 years, Do Fixer vs. Blood Generation Supercard of Honor, or Blood Generation vs. Generation Next from 3/30 For more Dragon, him vs. KENTA, Dragon vs. Roderick (either Vendetta or Supercard of Honor), Dragon vs. Nigel McGuinness from Unified, and Dragon vs. Marufuji from Final Battle 2005 For just plain awesome matches, Joe vs. Kenta Kobashi from ... Joe vs. Kobashi, Low Ki vs. KENTA from Final Battle 2005, Austin Aries vs. Alex Shelley from Manhattan Mayhem, ROH vs. CZW 6 man brawl from the 100th Show, and Cage of Death from Death Before Dishonor IV |

I need to know from you RoH people...there is only one RoH match that I am really interested in seeing; CM Punk vs. Christopher Daniels for the Title, and yet I have heard shockingly little about it. Is it worth the cost of buying the DVD?

Right, finally got through watching this match between Aries and Dragon.
It was a good match and fun to watch, but it didn't leave me in awe. It almost felt like there was something missing from the match to make it exciting. |

CM Punk vs. Christopher Daniels vs. Samoa Joe vs. James Gibson was a real good match from Redemption, if you want to see Daniels and Punk interact. |

It depends on what you're looking for, I'm assuming you're just referring to singles matches and since this is Aries and Dragon you're looking for more technical stuff, no?I did have a list somewhere of all the matches I've really liked from the shows that I've seen but I lost it If I can put it together again I'll put it up in a little while

I'm asking if YOU think there is a better match from RoH than this and if so what is/are they. So I can hunt them down and watch them. So clearly I am aware that better is completely subjective.

I'm just messin' playa.
K, going through the past results, these are matches I remember liking when I saw them. Time might have altered my perception on them somewhat, and will definitely have diminished some of the older stuff, and I've no idea how many of these you've seen or have/will have access to, but here ya go: Low Ki vs Christopher Daniels vs American Dragon (Era of Honor Begins) American Dragon vs Low Ki (Round Robin Challenge) Paul London vs Michael Shane (Unscripted) - this is one of those where it probably hasn't held up very well American Dragon vs Doug Williams (Scramble Madness) Paul London vs American Dragon (Epic Encounter) Paul London vs Samoa Joe (Death Before Dishonor) Samoa Joe vs Jay Briscoe (At Our Best) CM Punk vs Samoa Joe (World Title Classic) CM Punk vs Samoa Joe (Joe vs Punk II) American Dragon vs Spanky (Best of American Super Juniors) Austin Aries vs Alex Shelley (Manhattan Mayhem) CM Punk vs Roderick Strong (Escape From New York) Aries/Strong/Sydal vs Shelley/Rave/Abyss (Redemption) American Dragon vs James Gibson (Glory By Honor IV) Alex Shelley vs Claudio Castagnoli (This Means War) American Dragon vs Roderick Strong (Vendetta) American Dragon vs Rocky Romero (Steel Cage Warfare) American Dragon vs AJ Styles (Dissension) American Dragon vs Jimmy Rave (4th Anniversary) American Dragon vs Alex Shelley (Arena Warfare) Strong/Evans vs Briscoes (Best In The World) CIMA/Doi/Yoshino vs Aries/Strong/Evans (Dragon Gate Challenge) Styles/Sydal vs Aries/Evans (Supercard of Honor) Dragon Kid/Horiguchi/Saito vs CIMA/Doi/Yoshino (") Hero/Butcher/Super Dragon vs Joe/Pearce/Whitmer (100th Show) American Dragon vs Nigel McGuinness (Weekend of Champions Night 2) Nigel McGuinness vs Jay Lethal (Ring of Homicide) American Dragon vs Delirious (") Homicide vs Chris Hero (In Your Face) KENTA vs Roderick Strong (Throwdown) KENTA vs Austin Aries (Chi-Town Struggle) Nigel McGuiness vs Roderick Strong (Death Before Dishonor IV) Team ROH vs Team CZW (") American Dragon vs Nigel McGuinness (Generation Now) American Dragon vs Samoa Joe (Fight of the Century) Aries/Strong vs Briscoes (Unified) American Dragon vs Nigel McGuinness (") Briscoes vs Sydal/Richards (Anarchy In The UK) American Dragon vs Nigel McGuinness (Epic Encounter II) Naomichi Marafuji vs Nigel McGuinness (Glory By Honor V Night 2) American Dragon vs KENTA (") That takes you up to September 06. I haven't really seen anything past that yet, and there's a lot more stuff on the list from 05-06 mainly because that's what I can remember easiest and it'll probably be easier to track down. But yeah, there you go. Some of the stuff, like the Dragon - McGuinness series, is probably worth watching in order if you can to see how the matches evolve. |
