Thunder Rosa going on a barnstorming tour sounds fun.

Asshole Bryan is the absolute best, hands down.

Warner Media needs to give TK another hour of TV just devoted to Bryan killing dudes.

Honestly, that was a legit answer, wasn't trying to be a smartass or anything AAA doesn't put that much emphasis on titles, but FTR is set to defend them at the next big AAA show.

To be fair, you could ask that about pretty much any champion in AAA. The only one that seems to happen on any sort of regular basis is the trios titles.

I have a feeling that Lethal is going to (at least at the start) be the link between old ROH and new ROH so that is probably why he's been booked that way.

Jay Lethal (offscreen issues aside) has always been a guy who is good at what he does but I can't be bothered to give the slightest shit about.

So considering Athena/Ember Moon has been selective with her bookings, it seems like Toni Storm is a good bet for the new debuting women's star.

Yeah my first thought was the amount of bad faith takes who think AEW not renewing guys is the exact same thing as firing people will be absolutely exhausting.

HHH officially announces end of in ring career
The Angle deal did end up providing one of the best "sit the fuck down" moments that I can recall, when Gerald Brisco asked Hunter who'd he think would win a shoot (in response to the idea Kurt was too small to believably beat him).

The blond dude looks like he could be Spanky Jr.

HHH officially announces end of in ring career
He also squashed RVD in 2001 when he was red hot, and of course the years long feud with Jericho where the only win Y2J ever got was winning the tag titles with Benoit over HHH/Austin which no one remembers because it's the match where the quad tear happened. Plus he killed the love triangle storyline with Steph and Kurt (that was honestly one of the best they've done) because he didn't think it would be believable for Olympic Gold Medalist Kurt to go over because he was smaller.

HHH officially announces end of in ring career
I thought he was alright pre quad tear. Wasn't as over as his push, but he usually had solid WWF Main Event Style matches. After he came back it was all 20 minute promos and self conscious epics though.

HHH officially announces end of in ring career
So I was reading a thread over on the WON board detailing Hunter's crimes against the business, it really hit me looking back how you he probably was the reason the Rock decided to leave wrestling to get into movies full time. His movie career started to ramp up right when the infamous Reign of Terror started, and it's easy to put together a case that he saw that sticking around would only be an endless cycle of butting heads with an insecure manbaby (that he had already been on the wrong side of due to being a Bret Hart guy). I'm sure Hunter probably did a victory lap when they "accidentally" let Rock's contract expire, only to watch him turn into the biggest box office star in Hollywood while he got to be in charge of a company 1/4th as popular as it used to be.

Ring of Honor Wrestling
When I checked I only saw the option for the PPV, not all of Honor Club. It's entirely possible I missed it though. $10 for the PPV and a month of Honor Club archives seemed like a better deal than $29.99 for the PPV only on Fite.

Also Fightful is reporting WWE is bringing in Shane O Mac for Mania weekend, I guess they are gonna do the fake out.

Imagine going back like 5 years ago and telling someone not only is Mandy Rose the NXT Women's champ, she's been awesome.

She's really good at the character stuff, but "spoiled daddy's girl" seems like a weird gimmick choice for a buffed out athlete like Tiffany Stratton.

WWE's obsession with having everyone state the exact amount of days they held a title will never not be weird to me.

The worst part about the Kimber Lee/Nash Carter drama is it makes the idiots who booed MSK correct (all be it for the wrong reason).

You can only buy the PPV directly via Fite.

Current New Japan
The pandemic damaged the US title. They could either put it on someone in the US who wouldn't be able to appear on big shows in Japan, or put it on someone in Japan who couldn't get to the US. No real good choices either way. At least things have opened up to the point we should start seeing people go back and forth easier.

Honor Club will get you live access to the PPV, yes. Should be able to use a Roku but I haven't ever tried that. No reason it shouldn't work tho.

Current New Japan
New Japan has always had a pretty firm line between junior and heavyweight titles, as opposed to the IWGP and IC title both being main eventer belts (often held by the same person) so I get why they haven't merged the tag titles. What I don't get is why they had to make a new belt for the New Japan Strong show when I thought that was what the US title was for.
