Castle losing his boys is DEVASTATING! But the segments for this should be gold and Dalton's chase for his boys back will be a great storyline. Dalton & Silas are golden gimmicks in 2015 who compliment each other perfectly. This was my MOTN

 

Found the return of ANX a bit meh and don't like them pinning the Briscoes at all. And I can totally do without whatever they're trying to do with Romantic Touch

 

Moose/Cedric was a pleasant surprise. No as good as the Page/ACH No DQ on the last PPV, but a really fun chaotic match. I've underestimated Moose in the past perhaps.

 

Some overbooking on the show, but the take away from it with the Cole/O'Reilly stuff was fine. The red mask in the tag title match was a bit much though.

 

 

Not one of my fav ROH supercards of the year though on the whole, like I mentioned, hints of overbooking, plus the crowd didn't sound amazing - no offence to those of you in attendance lol

I was there live and watched this back on tv. Live I thought ACH/ Sydal was pretty strong with ACH selling his limb . Watching it on tape, it looks like ACH shit cans all the leg work on his comeback.

 

 

In regards to the crowd I felt at times they were very loud . At times the crowd seemed to intently watch the matches. Also a lot of the crowd burnt out trying to get a Todd Sinclair chant going back

Like... I think they understand he's popular and that's about the end of it. Taking away the Boys is the kind of tone deaf booking that we saw from Cornette a few years ago. I don't think any of the fans wanted to see that. Dalton should be tearing his way up the card and winning the TV Title instead of being bogged down in the quicksand with guys like Cedric Alexander and Silas Young.

 

He's never going to get above mid-card in RoH and the WWE is going to eventually sign him and turn him into a star.

I disagree on two points: 1) That WWE would want to make anything more of him, probably only with a very altered gimmick which while I love the performer, I love THIS gimmick the most and ROH deserve a lot of credit for that 2) That Silas isn't a perfect guy to work with atm. Silas has been around longer but still has a hilarious, relevant character that can actually draw the heat

I do however see your point that ROH only see him as comic relief a la Romantic Touch, when he goes thoroughly above and beyond that.

Though I think a storyline chase for the boys back is on, and that should be inspiring viewing. Get a few cracking segments out of Silas and then have him nab them back somehow

Castle has been positioned in main events and semi mains on house shows. I think they're taking their time with him. Right now him and Moose show a ton of upside . We've seen WWE push guys too soon and hurt them. I think ROH is mindful of that. At ASE they had meet and greets with some of the roster. He was one of them along with Styles,Bucks,reDragon, Lethal, Briscoes, ACH,Sydal , Cole before the turn and the commentating team. It was 1/2 on Friday, other 1/2 on Saturday. They included Dalton with the biggest stars of the promotion. I think they know they have a future main eventer.

Anyone else think it was kind of surprising ROH took Kenny King back after he fucked them right after ANX won the title? I know it's the wrestling business but this isn't like Vince taking a guy back he had issues with because it can make him money,

 

IIRC, it was Cornette who had the biggest beef with King and claimed he'd never allow him back.
