    Something I would like to see with WWE......

    With the March Madness tournament consuming basketball fans and college sports fans with their month long tournament and brackets and all that jazz, I would like to see something similar with WWE. I know WWE had the King of the Ring tourny, but it was a one night thing and had no real excitement...

    Who in ROH could be a World Champion?

    So, of all the talent within the ROH system (including FIP), who could be a potential World's Champion who has not been? And to even further the question, who SHOULD have been the World's Champion already who has not been? For me, as far as who could be a World Champion, I can definatly see...

    [Official] Ring of Honor Thread

    I have been watching more and more of Kenny King in FIP and in ROH and I am really taking a liking to him, hopefully he sticks around ROH full-time and begins to plant the seeds for a great future. He could benefit by winning the FIP Heavyweight Championship and defending it within ROH like...

    [Official] Ring of Honor Thread

    ROH treats their tag-team division with the respect and honor it deserves, and in my opinion the ROH World Tag-Team Championships ARE pro wrestling's true World Tag-Team Championships. I cannot wait until next week's episode, I have not been this excited about pro wrestling in quite some time...

    [Official] Ring of Honor Thread

    Wow, ROH puts on a much better in ring product than WWE and TNA and even most of Japan, so what are you basing this on? I got to dissagree and say that the in ring product is definatly priority over the wrestlers "look", the only real flashy look we saw on the opening show was Jacobs, and he...

    [Official] Ring of Honor Thread

    I just watched ROH's first ever HDnet show and I was very please with how they presented the product, and I LOVE the new announcer, he really gives the matches a true "sports" appeal. The presentation was very nice and I am very excited for next weeks episode, and I was glad to see that they...

    What if....

    It would definatly hurt the image of Pro Wrestling, whenever something like this happens it opens up the floodgates for steiroid investigations and health and safty violations, it would be an absalute mess. Let's hope we never live to witness something like this, the Owen thing was different...

    Bruno Sammartino: Worthy or Not?

    Bruno is definatly worthy of the HOF and is in the REAL PWHOF in NY nestled nicely with all of the greats in this business. Bruno is as worthy as any great talent this sport has ever seen, he WAS one of the greats of the 60's and 70's, it reminds me a lot of Hogan/Flair...... In the 80's...

    [Official] Ring of Honor Thread

    I was so upset that I missed the first episode due to work, but I hope to find it streaming online somewhere this week. From your report, it seemed like a good first episode and I look foward to this upcoming Saturday's episode and maybe if we are lucky, Nigel will make an appearence! I like the...

    History of WrestleMania with KB

    I will always remember WM7 for the great Savage/Warrior match and I was extreamly dissapointed when Savage lost, but I had the feeling he would be back and a while later he was, so I was okay. I will always remember the stupid blindfold match but at 11 years old I loved it and watching it live...

    Whatever Happened To Managers

    I miss when some wrestlers had managers, there isn't as many today as there was back then and the ones that we have today are not nearly as charasmatic or interesting as the ones of yesteryear. Bobby Heenan, Jimmy Hart, Elizabeth, Robert Parket, Slick and others made having a manager "cool" and...

    Andre 'The Giant': Worthy or Not?

    Who were the two sad souls who voted "no"? Jeez, some people need a history lesson in the sport of pro wrestling. Of course Andre deserves it, even if you discounted his WWF stuff, he has done tons of great things in the NWA and Japan that would allow him entry into the REAL pro wrestling HOF...

    The Match That Made You The Fan You Are...

    Harley Race -vs- Ric Flair for the NWA World's Heavyweight Championship at Starrcade was the match that did it for me. I was 4 when I saw it and I remember back on it as being something huge back when it first happened, I remember the crowd being jacked, the house being packed and Ric winning...

    Why isn't Randy Savage...

    Macho Man is in the REAL Professional Wrestling Hall of Fame, check out the real HOF at http://www.pwhf.org/ and you will see he made it into the latest class of inductees I beleive. Savage was a great competitor, he deserves his place in both the real HOF and the WWE HOF.
