The February 22 ROH show actually sounds like it could be pretty great
Ring Of Honor
February 22, 2008- 8pm start Deer Park Community Center 41 Homer Avenue Deer Park, NY 11729 Save 20-25% on tickets until Friday morning at ROHwrestling.com Tag Team Challenge Roderick Strong & Davey Richards vs. Kevin Steen & El Generico Bryan Picks Nigel's Opponent - Non-Title Nigel McGuinness vs. Brent Albright Nigel Picks Bryan's Opponent Bryan Danielson vs. Rocky Romero Non-Title Match - Shiozaki's US Debut FIP World Heavyweight Champion Erick Stevens vs. Go Shiozaki First Time Ever Austin Aries vs. Joey Matthews Special Attraction Match Tyler Black vs. The Human Tornado The debut of Larry Sweeney's talk show segment Also signed to appear: Jimmy Jacobs & The Necro Butcher with Lacey; The Vulture Squad of Ruckus & Jigsaw with Julius Smokes & Mercedes Martinez plus more!!! Looking at it starting from the bottom: Larry Sweeney's talk show will be great. The man is entertaining as all hell. We then go into Tyler Black vs. Human Tornado. Both men are pretty fucking good. Black has been really impressive, and the Human Tornado is the Huuuuuuuuuman Tooooornaaaadooooo! It will be a fun match, which Tyler Black should win to make him look important coming off his ROH World Tag Team Title loss. I enjoy watching Austin Aries and Joey Matthews. I think Matthews has been one of the most underrated men to pass through the WWE recently, and Aries is one of the best all-round workers out there today. This match will kick ass. Aries should go over cleanly, break his losing streak up a bit more, and then get an offer for Jimmy Jacobs to take over The Age of the Fall as their official leader. Most seem to think that Aries won't join the AotF, but I think he might, and I think it will be great when it does happen. Then they'd be a six-person stable, and it'd set them apart from the others floating around. Go Shiozaki making his US debut will be fun. He'd match up well with Erick Stevens, I think. Seeing as this is his debut, I think it would be wise to put Stevens over, especially considering he's the FIP World Heavyweight Champion, and is just starting to look dominant in the role. Bryan Danielson vs. Rocky Romero will be a good match. Danielson has actually faded out a bit recently, I think, but he has the big match against Nigel McGuinness on the Sixth Anniversary Show. I think he should get some momentum against Nigel McGuinness heading into that. Danielson is one of the best wrestlers in the world, so it does not hurt to put him over a guy being sold as a tag team wrestler, either. Nigel McGuinness vs. Brent Albright is really interesting to me, because I am an Albright mark. It makes Albright look good for being Danielson's choice, and I think he would match up well with McGuinness. I think Albright should actually go over, to build another challenger for McGuinness, and because it makes Danielson look like he's mentally got McGuinness figured out heading into their ROH World Title Match. The Tag Team Challenge is brilliant booking, in my opinion. The very over face team of Kevin Steen & El Generico will get to go over Roderick Strong & Davey Richards, one of whom is one-half of the ROH World Tag Team Champions, which puts Steen & Generico in line for a shot. And while this is non-title, Roderick Strong is the leader of his group, so him putting over Steen & Generico would do them a lot of good. I'm looking forward to the outcome of this show, as well as ROH heading into their Sixth Year Anniversary and their WrestleMania weekend. Pfft |
