Alicia Fox is incredible.

i found last night's episode very amusing, centered around summer rae being mad at eva marie for being a shitty wrestler. highlighted by the line "she just sucks!" also i love how eva marie tries to sound smart by always saying "___ and I" whenever talking about herself and someone else, even when they are the object in said sentence and it actually should be "____ and me." its like the classic "whom shall i say is calling?" for being incorrect by trying to be formal.

Definitely true, but Okada, Tanahashi and Nakamura are REALLY big with hardcore fans right now. So their lackluster reactions really surprised me. They were still chanting for Liger for the first 5 or so seconds of Tanahashi's theme and were pretty quiet during his entrance. The NJPW main event crop I would say is about as big for most fans on the internet as say KENTA was in the mid 2000s when he made appearances for ROH and I remember the crowds going wild for him. Maybe they'll get a better reaction in New York and the Toronto crowd isn't made up of quite the same fans, but I don't know what other kind of fans you sell out an ROH show based off of.

I wish there were an English book on the history of Japanese wrestling. A lot of the knowledge seems to be there, but very fragmented. I wonder if there are good Japanese language books on the subject.

This post-match press conference is so awful. Also it pretty much confirms Kane vs. Bryan is continuing.

Bryan/Kane was really good before the backstage stuff. It killed the crowd and now they're just waiting for it to end.

Like Wrestlemania, it was too long and full of too much bullshit. You can tell this pairing has a great match in it but I don't think it'll happen.

Dean and Seth are working on being the #1 and #2 in the whole world for 2014.

poor big e

Man, what, ladders on top of stacked tables? Chairshots to the head? That Drew bump? That match was incredible.

It just now went and downloaded an episode to try it out and everything worked, I just put in my American debit card info and everything processed fine. Doesn't even look like I got charged with a conversion fee. Anyway, it works just like a normal online store check out. I know French pretty well but even if you didn't it seems easy to walk your way through. I'll do a little walkthrough though: Click the episode you want to buy > Click Telecharger (download) > Acceder a mon Panier (Go to my shopping cart) > Valider mon Panier (check-out) > S'inscrire (register) > Fill out all the info, the form is pretty familiar > Now you should be prompted to fill in an address, do it and click on the bottom right button > Pretty straightforward after this, keep clicking the bottom right link to move forward, you'll be prompted to put in payment information, it took my US debit card just fine, then you'll be taken to a page that confirms you order. Below the receipt information there should be a bar with your video on it, click the "Telecharger" button to download. Hope that helps somewhat. I downloaded the Mars 1965 episode btw.

Who do you see challenging Styles at Yokohama? Naito? Seems like everyone's wrapped up in something and you think they'd want a hot main event for a big arena.

Wasn't a big fan of this show. I thought Honma/Ishii was great and the tag elimination was really fun, but the main event was really boring for me. If I were a star rating guy I wouldn't even go *** on that.

Honestly I agree with this. This feud would be a lot better if it were a lot simpler.

That really better not be the end of their mini-feud.

9/10 first half 4/10 second half

I still think this was a great show up to RVD/Cesaro.

I wouldn't bet on this. I sure hope Barrett advances though. Man would RVD winning make me angry. RVD is the worst thing in WWE right now. Cesaro/Barrett would have been a great match too. Man what was up with RVD/Cesaro? Cesaro's heat seems damaged, or was it just a generally dead crowd? They were really hot for the first hour or so. Match should've been a lot better given how good Cesaro is as a base for mediocre high fliers.

God dammit I hate RVD so much.

Seemed pretty clear to me that's what the were doing. Goldust ever worked sort of dirty during the match. I don't think that was THE break up either, just a tease.

Ryback is the most underrated talker in wrestling.

Sad to see the Rhodes having lost so much heat. Hopefully they can get the crowd into the split. Thought Usos/Rhodes was really fun for its length. I think this RAW is really great overall.

I thought some of it was good. Just too long.
