El Dragon

I am noticing the ones who went into this expecting it to be awful think it is where as the people who were not are enjoying it. Shock.

LETS GO SONYA AND MANDY

There really is a lot of talent in this. Logan and Morgan I think are pretty good st this point.

It feels like Tamina and Nia are literally going to Eliminate everyone.

Iconics with some actual solid limb work.

That neckbreaker with Mandy's leg trapped in the cage was actually pretty cool.

Opening with Bayley, Sasha, and Sonya. Mandy is eh, but those 3 I like watching, so good start.

Interesting choice opening with Naomi and Carmella here.

It really seems like they are going to run with Kofi/Bryan going into Mania imo.

Fuck it, I'm just ecstatic they have a great crowd. That Senton was nuts.

Murphy vs. Tozawa has been damn fun, and Murphy is a god damned monster.

Same here, gotta love 6 day work weeks.

That's being super unfair to the Low-Ki/Homicide vs. Joe and Lethal feud. As for more forgettable wrestlers that got runs in multiple companies, Mike Bennett is the clear answer. Wasn't pushed as strong, but got runs in RoH, TNA, and WWE while being the dullest thing going.

Um, this is a really shitty interpretation. Nia Jax weaseled her way into the men’s rumble because she attacked someone who wasn’t expecting it and took there spot. Zayn weaseled her way into the last Rumble with him and Owens taking out Dillinger. Becky didn’t attack Lana. Lana got hurt in something unrelated and was attacked by someone she had a personal beef with during the match. Becky didn’t “weasel” into anything, she noticed an opportunity and took it. Resourcefulness isn’t a heel exclusive trait. And she chose Ronda because she has personal beef with Ronda. Your take is bad.

I really think you have the strongest start going so far. Love your build up and style of the show, and you already have angles I'm super excited for.

RoH TV for January 25th, 2019, filmed in Las Vegas Pre Show Matches: Fabian Aichner and Marcel Barthel defeat Raul Mendoza & Humberto Carrillo Viper defeats A Local Competitor Keith Lee and Uhaa Nation defeat the Street Profits RoH World Title Tournament 1st Round Match, 20 Minute Time Limit: Andrade "Cien" Almas w/ Zelina Vega vs. Christopher Daniels  Daniels makes his way to the ring first and the veteran gets a big pop. Almas makes his way to the ring to a pretty big pop, a real surprise for the crowd. And this match is worked at a very fast pace, as Almas just seems incredibly quick to find his moments against the vet. Daniels has a lot of tricks up his sleeve, but any moment he gives Almas is rapidly exploited. Daniels goes on a bit of a run late, and even has Almas set for the Angels Wings, but Almas fights his way out and transitions into the Hammerlock DDT, and that was it. Winner in 11:24, via Pinfall, and moving on to the 2nd round: Andrade "Cien" Almas Six Man Mayhem: Winner gets the last spot in the WoH World Title Tournament Bianca Belair vs. Killer Kelly vs. Kacy Catanzaro vs. Mandy Rose vs. Cheerleader Melissa vs. Madison Eagles (Rules of the Match: 2 people in ring, everyone else on apron. Much like Scramble Rules, a wrestler going to the floor can count as a tag. 1 fall to a winner) An interesting match between 6 women who were desperate to get into the final spot of the WoH World Title Tournament, with a bunch of different styles. The pure athleticism of both Belair & Catanzaro, the MMA influenced game of Killer Kelly, The veteran know how of Eagles and Melissa, and the underhanded tactics of Rose. Catanzaro pulls of some very impressive high flying in the early going against Eagles, as the two seem to have made a fun matchup, but eventually Eagles grounds Kacy and she plays face in peril for a while, as Eagles and Melissa try to exclude everyone else from the match for long stretches. Sadly for both, when Melissa hit an Air Raid Crash on Catanzaro that Eagles broke up the pinfall for there stretch to break down. This led to a both Kelly and Belair getting some offense in on both, leading to Catanzaro hitting a big Double Jump Tope onto the pile outside! Belair, avoids everything, and is seemingly setting for a dive, when Mandy Rose, who has seemingly been picking her spots very quietly all match, goes for a roll up with the tights, but only gets 2. This seemingly sets off Belair who starts using her signature Hair Whip, before quickly setting her up for the K.O.D.. The rest of the group are just too late to make the save. Winner in 8:42, via Pinfall, and advancing to the WoH World Title Tournament: Bianca Belair 20 Minute Time Limit: Damian O'Connor w/ Dave Mastiff vs. Donovon Dijak An interesting match between two completely different types of big men: The somewhat short and bulky of O'Connor against the tall and lean Dijak. And most of the way through it's O'Connor's more raw power that seems to be leading the way, including hitting a big running cross body for two. However Baron Corbin makes his way to the ring after about 6 minutes and assaults O'Connor's tag partner Mastiff. O'Connor is distracted by this and when he turns around it's right into a Discus Big Boot to the jaw. Winner via Pinfall in 6:07: Donovan Dijak  Post Match, Corbin continues his beat down, joined somewhat reluctantly with by Dijak. In impressive feats of strength, Corbin hits a Deep Six on Mastiff, followed by Feast Your Eyes by Dijak on O'Connor. It seems we might have a new alliance here in Corbin and Dijak. RoH World Title Tournament 1st Round Match, 20 Minute Time Limit: Austin Aries vs. Cody Rhodes A really nice deal here for the crowd in Las Vegas as WCW Superstar Cody Rhodes is here, trying to become a 2 time RoH World Champion. He has a hell of a draw though, as someone who has already pulled that trick stands in his way in Austin Aries. And this is a strong back and forth match, which has really gotten the crowd going. Aries attempts a Brainbuster late, but Cody rolls out the side, straight into a Cross Rhodes for the win. Winner in 13:51, via Pinfall, and moving on to the 2nd round: Cody Rhodes  RoH World Title Tournament 1st Round Match, 20 Minute Time Limit: Pac vs. Cedric Alexander An interesting match between two very athletic competitors here, as Alexander makes his returns RoH and finds a stiff challenger in Pac. And Pac is not messing around here, using viscous strikes to get the upper hand. Alexander eventually comes back and is setting for the Lumbar Check when Pac grabs the ref and low blows Alexander in the refs blind spot. Pac wastes no time getting to the top rope and hits the Red Arrow before Alexander can recover. Winner in 9:12, via pinfall, and moving on to the 2nd round: Pac WoH World Title Tournament 1st Round Match, 20 Minute Time Limit: Athena vs. Heidi Lovelace The first Women of Honor Title Tournamemt match sees 2 Women who certainly seem like they have something to prove. The former Ember Moon and Ruby Riott are going very quickly from the word go, both trying to get a major victory quickly. Lovelace controls a large portion of this match, working over Athena with many blows to the head. Sadly for her, an attempted Superplex gets her thrown off the top, and Athenas still has the Eclipse as an ace in the hole. Winner in 8:57, and moving on to the 2nd round: Athena RoH World Title Tournament 1st Round Match, 20 Minute Time Limit: Pete Dunne vs. Homicide Homicide gets a pretty decent pop, but Dunne seemingly gets a much bigger one, as he seems like a pretty top star to this crowd quickly. And this actually devolves into a bit of a brawl pretty quickly, as Cide clearly wants to restablish himself as the most dangerous man in RoH. But Dunne is not afraid to brawl, and when Homicide misses a chop leading to him hitting his hand on the ring post he opened himself up to Dunnes speciality. Dunne uses his joint locks to perfection, and the opening ends up leading to Dunne finding his Bitter End Winner, via pinfall: in 12:16, and moving on to the 2nd round: Pete Dunne Becky Lynch makes her way to the ring, to arguably the biggest reaction of the night. She awaits her opponent, and out makes Io Shirai WoH World Title Tournament 1st Round Match, 20 Minute Time Limit: Becky Lynch vs. Io Shirai So, we get a match that feels like it could be the finals is in the 1st round. And Shirai is very aggressive here going after Lynch, throwing some very solid strikes, while Becky tries to take the match to the mat. When Becky has the match on the ground, she does seem to have a solid advantage. But Shirai's explosiveness keeps evening the match up. Eventually, Shirai goes up for her Moonsault, but Becky moves out of the way. Becky quickly sets for the Disarmer, but Io pushes her back into a school boy that is a very very close near fall. Shirai argues with the ref for a moment, when Becky locks in a Crucifix to get the winning pinning combination. Winner via Pinfall in 16:41, and moving on to the 2nd round: Becky Lynch 

Sorry for the further delay. Was planning on typing out my plans earlier today and then I had laptop problems. Will try to phone type it today.

This has been a silly good card so far.

Honestly the crowd has been for her when she isn’t going against the Becky’s and Sasha’s of the world. She just wont match the ones the fans WANT to be top acts.

Like, that was a GOOD Shooting Star Press! How the fuck did he do that?

WHAT

If she doesn't enter the Rumble we are gonna get some boos.

Lana got "hurt" on the pre-show. Easy in there.

Bridging Fucking Asuka Lock. Fuck that's a great Finish.
