Another great card by ROH, If the keep going the way there going i see a tv deal soon.

Pre-Show Results:

1) Nate Mattson vs "Sugarfoot" Alex Payne. Mattson gets the victory.

Main Show Results:

1) "Unreal" Mike Elgin, Danny Daniels, Mike Nakazawa vs Mitch Franklin, Pelle Primeau, Ernie Osiris. Pelle pins Elgin to get his team the win.

2) Rhett Titus vs Silas Young. Adam Pearce is not in the building. Young beats Titus.

3) "Shatterd Rockstar" Joey Matthews vs Jigsaw. Jigsaw d. Matthews.

4) Nigel McGuinness & Claudio Castagnoli vs. Kevin Steen & El Generico. Claudio pins Generico after Ricola Bomb. Claudio holds up ROH title afterwards and a staredown ensues between Nigel and Claudio.

5) Necro Butcher vs. Delirious - Falls Count Anywhere. Necro defeats Delirious!

6) Jack Evans & Ruckus vs. Brent Albright & Chris Hero. Hero has new theme. Ruckus pins Hero after hitting a top rope twisty move. Sweeney argued with Albright after the match, Brent threatened to hit him but pulls back and leaves.

7) Jay & Mark Briscoe vs. Kota Ibushi & Austin Aries. Awesome tag match. Briscoes win after spike jaydriller on Ibushi. Place went nuts. Ibushi is awesome.

- Prazak comes out to ask Aries about what happened with Lacey. Austin doesn't answer as Lacey comes out. They make out then leave.

8) Jimmy Jacobs & Tyler Black vs. Alex Shelley & Chris Sabin. Good match so far. Shelley way over, has broken out the skullf*ck. Brawling in the crowd. Shelley taps to Jacobs' End Times.

thoughts : The match of the night is The Briscoes by far, really great match and again Ibushi is classic. The Aries and AOTF things is simple Lacey si going to join her BF Aries and leave the fall, should lead up to a good fued with Aries and Jacobs do. And hopefully we will se Claudio v McGuinness at the hammerstein in what could be a really gud match.

results from chicago up 2moro....

Unless its a rubbish timeslot, i dont. ROH numbers are down & the PPV venture has been a disaster from a financial standpoint. Recently the were considering dropping it & just doing DVD's as that worked for them.

ROH doesnt appeal to enough to warrent a TV deal. TNA & WWE cant even bring in what they would have ten years ago. ROH on TV would be disasterious for them. Creativly & Financially. Great matches dont draw TV viewers back every week. I'm not knocking the product but Storylines do, which is ROH weakest link.

ROH has had some of the best storylines in years, The Age of The Fall which could be used to attract a fan base for eg.Aswell as Sweet n' Sour inc. trying to take over ROH these are just 2 that could really be used on tv. And there sales are as good as ever now with the mass sale for the hammerstein ball room aswell as the deal for 6 more ppvs in the next year there growing in the wealth department. Plus the links with pro wrestling NOAH, Shimmer and PWG and even a possible link with TNA ( ie. MCMG returning and joe mentioning it in a interview for the sun ) only good things can happen ROH in the coming weeks/months

AOTF seemed to be a big let down to everyone from what ive seen/read. SnS like S.E.X. a few years ago? Or the countless others before that?

Ticket sales are good. I'm talking about buyrates. Buyrates are down from the first show & the cost of running a PPV is more than they are making from it. They dont have big finalical backers (That i know of) to help them when things get tough. Isnt SHIMMER owned/run by the same guy? I wouldent call that a true link.

The link with TNA never went, it was just changed. TNA guys can still work ROH shows so long as they dont appear on PPV or DVDs.

Prazak who works for ROH is the owner of Shimmer but i was saying Shimmer aswell as PWG,Noah,JAPW and Chikara all sell there dvds through ROH which ROH get money out of

Murder City Machine Guns ( Sabin and Shelley ) vs. Do It For Her ( Black and Jacobs ) this is an awsome match.
