I popped for Kenny Raging Demon'ing that dude.

"Getting pinned" is an acceptable use of Jimmy Havoc in my book.

Agreed, so far it's been the biggest weakness I've seen so far. I suppose the argument can be made no one really cares about preshows, but theirs have been particularly not good.

Who's just turned 37 last week.

Jungle Boy reminds me of how so many territories had the cute young guy to draw the female fans, and how WWE will never have that since guys have to spend 6 years in developmental learning how to work to the hard cam.

Meanwhile, MJF out here showing all these geeks how it's done.

Depends if they run a show at one of their friend's major gaming events I suppose.

I mean, guys, I don't think Alex Jebailey is going to be doing matches on TNT. I think people are getting way to MAD ONLINE at something designed for the audience they are in front of tonight.

Took a bit to get going, but that turned in to a nice little match there. Liked the story of the bigger person taking the littler ones not serious enough and it cost her.

I had a blip or two in this match but it's been largely fine. Watching on an iPad via the BR site.

Yeah sure, sounds like the crowd views this promotion as the heel here.

I figure she's there the same way Kane is put in ladder matches, someone for the smaller folks to do moves on.

OK, bye then? (directed at PeteF3 up there)

TBH I liked it better than anything Shane's been involved in. At least there was self-awareness that it was silly.

This isn't bad for what it is. I wasn't expecting match of the night from these guys.

No, but he's actually put effort into not embarrassing himself.

He's the one running the game expo the show is at.

Who would have figured the way to make Leva Bates interesting is to have Big Cass singing the Price is Right theme.

It's probably not intentional, but having these segments between matches probably helps so the women don't have to directly follow such a hot opener.

To be fair, no one will see them doing it though.

I can't recall a promotion that seems so hellbent on making people not care as much as ROH is right now. Like, even WWE is trying shit no matter if you like it or not, ROH seems steadfast in its attempts to remain as pedestrian as possible.

It's on Bleacher Report's streaming service, you just have to make a free account to watch. They list the start time as 7:30 eastern, which will probably be for the Buy In matches.

Eli Drake was announced as Nick Aldis's tag team partner at Best in the World and it was announced he signed a deal with the NWA (whatever that means in 2019). I suppose he'll be part of the NWA vs ROH feud they have been building, and at least he's someone I'd look forward to seeing.

Another log on the pile, Hunter had to team up with the Club on the Tokyo house show because god forbid he doesn't attach himself to something that got over in another company and try to make it his own.

Heyman maybe, but people forget (understandably, considering how it ended) just how big WCW was at its peak. NWO shirts were just as ubiquitous as Austin 3:16 ones, and they were legit filling domes for Nitro.
