Oh shit, we are going to get a Marty Scurll and PCO tag team. ROH is saved. Their vignettes will be hilarious since it's such a strange team.

Yeah, it was clearly a work but Enzo let people hit him for real to get it over.

And this is why ROH never goes anywhere. You want to use your big moment to start an Enzo vs Bully Ray feud that will never draw a dime? Enzo & Cass would get heat but the wrong kind of heat that doesn't make money. That fan base doesn't want to see them because they aren't good in the ring (Cass is decent for what he is, Enzo is awful) So if they start putting them all over their TV the fans are going to switch to AEW.

Better they went to ROH instead of AEW, so I don't have to watch them. Or TNA, which I watch occasionally.

Here's another angle of it:



Cover your gut, Cass!

Yeah, I'm worried for ROH now. They still have Bandido, Briscos, PCO, Cobb and Juice. But they looked so out of touch. Matt Taven carrying the company is terrible. No one wants to see him wrestling Jay Lethal all summer.

Well on the plus side, New Japan will be like"...nah, we're done with ROH" and partner up with AEW.

The guy deserved it though. Apparently he was sending horrible tweets to Velvet and Bully (he's since deleted them now). There's a similar thing about a guy who was homophobic and saying stuff during DON who got called out on Twitter and Matt has banned him from AEW shows.

As with every fan base you get people who overstep the boundaries and when they do they have to face the consequences. Had Bully knocked the guy out, so be it, he shouldn't haven't have acted the big guy and talked trash, I bet he wasn't so tough when he was face to face with him. They should have a zero tolerance at wrestling shows, if you act like a POS towards the wrestlers then you had to deal with the backlash.

Why is RUSH v Flip on the preshow? That answers one of the questions to why they've not sold many tickets. Plus they've got Marty who could be a main eventer for them but he's in a six man match. Same as WWE, talented roster, easily fixable problems. Plus a talent agreement with New Japan which gives them access to Okada, Ibushi, Naito, Tanahashi, Ospreay, ZSJ, Switchblade among others. Go with Ospreay v Marty or Flip Vs Naito, they'd be some cool matchups. You could do a journey to the ROH belt long angle with Flip too where he could go up against Marty, which if they built it up could be really good. Especially if they plan it out and let it build organically. Too much "hot shot" booking is to the detriment of the wrestling biz too.

They don't want Scurll in a top position because he's leaving in the Fall. And Gordon isn't even hiding he's planning to leave as soon as his deal ends. He's been on BTE to remind people he'll be there as soon as he can. So in their minds they want ROH Lifers on top so they can build on that when Marty leaves in 3 or 4 months.
