Best. Wrestling. Around. Today. In my humble opinion.

 

Any other Ring of Honor fans out there?

If you guys find the time to watch one of their weekly shows (they usually air Saturday night on the WB, I believe), you won't be disappointed. The wrestling is so much better than WWE and TNA, it's not even funny. Not to mention a lot of today's biggest stars such as C.M. Punk, Daniel Bryan, Seth Rollins, Samoa Joe, Austin Aries, etc., got their start there.

 

Keep your eyes on guys like ACH and Adam Cole because it's only a matter of time until they're in NXT, IMO.

Yeah, ROH wrestling is definitely superior in basically every way. And Lex is right, most of the truly skilled wrestlers that are in WWE or TNA cut their teeth in ROH. I would like to follow in more regularly, because I've enjoyed everything I've ever watched. 

 

It makes me think of how I ordered the Wrestle Kingdom 9 show this past Sunday that was in Japan and then watched Raw on Monday. It's embarassing how much worse the quality of wrestling in the WWE is. Most of Americans that were on that show have spent some time in ROH. Unfortunately WWE wants every wrestler to basically have the same style, so you can bland, unoriginal wrestling for the most part.

They're actually having a TV taping in Baltimore on March 7.

I went to the last TV taping with some friends in November and it was so much freakin' fun. And hell, it's only $20 to get in the door (a little bit more for ringside seats), so it's well worth the price of admission.

Oh, also the current NXT champion (Sami Zahn) and his chief adversary (Kevin Owens) are ROH alumni. Owens was actually ROH champion just last year under his real name of Kevin Steen.

I was at this show in November. They tape their television tapings in advance, so this only aired a few weeks ago. So f'n good!

 

This was a Fatal 4 Way Match for the Ring of Honor World Tag Team titles between ReDRagon ©, the Briscoes, The Addiction and ACH/Matt Sydal.
