Hooray, I'm going to my first ROH show! 2nd row...now it didn't specify specific seat numbers...so how does that work, when I get the ticket will they be marked with the seat number, or is it like a GA deal where I can sit anywhere I want in the second row? Thanks for the explanation.

Must be a different John "Bradshaw" Layfield.

Yup. and called it "one of the best matches of the last decade in North America."

Thanks.

OK, well you sort of answered my questions. I want to buy tickets from the website since they're offering 2nd and 3rd row tickets and so I'll have tickets going into the show. Do I have to be in a club to buy those tickets or are those avaliable to the general public? I know this might sound stupid but it just throws me off that all the tickets listed on the website are listed as "club" tickets .

OK, I might be going to the Philly show pending my friend agreeing to drive. It would be my first ROH show live. Probably a stupid quesiton but I notice the tickets on the ROH website are marked "club tickets", now this doesn't mean you have to join some sort of club to buy them, right? They're avaliable for everyone and just called that for whatever reason I assume? Another somewhat silly question, but I know that the legends usually get the streamer treatment, and have a feeling this will go down with Kobashi, so what's the protocol on this? I assume it's up to each fan to bring one in? Anything else I should know? thanks for the help.

It's Planet Jarrett Syndrome. We're in denial, the next step is anger, then a feeling of worthlessness and then finally acceptance.

Let me guess, the 4th man is Kip James and the group will be called "The King's Court". Monty Brown becomes the new top face and chases for the title which in it of itself isn't too bad, but I have a feeling it will take a few months of Double J as champ before he wins it. A more intriguing though less likely scenario I've heard floated is that officals were so impressed with Samoa Joe that they're moving him out of the X division (as evidenced by AJ and not Joe winning the X title as many expected) and will have Joe destroy Jarrett to start the new era on Spike.... ....yes I know, no chance in hell, but it's out there.

Seriously, what the fuck? This really takes the wind out of the sails from the optimism coming out of the last PPV. I just keep re-reading that TNA press release and it's like a bad dream of a parody come to life. Ugg....I remain guarded optimistic about the Spike TV debut, but I think Jeff Jarrett is a lot smarter than we give him credit for.

Oh and according to this week's Observer, Spike is replaying the Live UFC from 12:05am-2:10am meaning the TNA replay is delayed to 2:10am which is kind of a blow for TNA who could have gotten a lot of viewers staying over from TUF2 or Raw Exposed. This contradcits a previous release I saw for Spike's schedule which listed the Live Replay at 1 but I'll take Dave Meltzer's word for it.

Foley won't even be there live. WWE: -1 UFC: +1

Wasn't that great this year, and the finish was screwed up to boot. But Vince did nearly cripple himself, so there was some positive!

Um, or maybe not? Again from Meltzer:

I'd tune in to see that!

If we're just saying WWE MOTY (which is probably for the best as my list would be saturated with TNA and devoid of ROH since I havent seen any this year), here is my rough Top 10 list: 1. Kurt Angle vs. Shawn Michaels- Wrestlemania 21 2. Money In The Bank Ladder Match- Wrestlemania 21 3. Kurt Angle vs. Shawn Michaels- Vengeance 4. Rey Mysterio vs. Eddy Guerrero- Judgement Day 5. Hulk Hogan vs. Shawn Michaels- Summerslam 6. Elimination Chamber- New Year's Revolution 7. HHH vs. Batista- Vengeance 8. Rey Mysterio vs. Eddy Guerrero- Summerslam 9. John Cena vs. Chris Jericho- Summerslam 10. JBL vs. John Cena- Judgement Day

Four hours of WWE?!?!? <{POST_SNAPBACK}> 4 hours and 10 minutes actually....this is getting out of a control. At least wrestling is getting fun and interesting again. So....let's recap.... 7:55-11:05pm: RAW (USA) 8-9pm: UFC Unleashed (Spike) 9-11:05pm: UFC Live (Spike) 11:05-12:05am: RAW Exposed (USA) 11:05-12:05am: The Ultimate Fighter 2 (Spike) 12:05am-1:05am: TNA iMPACT! (Spike) 1:05am-3:05am: UFC Live Replay (Spike) Thats over EIGHT hours to watch on Monday night. Oh my.

Angle vs. Michaels from WM21 is THE MOTY, even though I doubt I'd have any other WWE matches in the top 10 (maybe their rematch at Vengeance ironically enough).

Um, yet another version of things from Meltzer's Monday update:

Look, I haven't seen any ROH this year so I don't have that frame of reference, but TNA wise, I'd say, yes it shoots to the top of TNA MOTY. If you include WWE it's probably only competing with Michaels/Angle from WM21 (which Im still slightly partial to). Great freakin' match, that had me standing and cheering for most of it.

Someone call Terry Taylor and tell him to bring his tights and some red hair dye, we have a program for him!

Bruce Mitchell of Pro Wrestling Torch:

Ask how they can publicly tell their stockholders that the move to USA is a positive when they will no longer be making any money off of ad revenue (rendering ratings meaningless to their bottom line and resulting in loss of profit) and are losing 2 hours of exposure through the cancelling of Heat and Velocity. Ask about UFC how long they can deny them as competition especially when UFC has drawn ratings as high as a 3.7 in the Male 18-34 demographic. Ask about TNA and how they can publicly deny feeling threatened yet will throw 6 figure deals at Matt Hardy and 7 figure deals at Mick Foley to keep them from signing with the startup. Ask also how they can morally or legally justify threatening wrestlers with trademark infringement for names and likenesses that not only did WWE not create but were used outside of WWE, and interfere with the ability of people they fired to earn a living elsewhere. Ask why they insist on hiring writers who know little to nothing about professional wrestling and continue to push an archaic style of wrestling when companies like TNA, ROH and UFC provide realistic, hard hitting, innovative matches that make WWE look behind the times. Or you can just ask when Hulk Hogan's coming back or if you could get John Cena's autograph.

Hell, the most exciting news that comes out of this for me is that a new TUF2 episode will air on Monday night so I don't have to wait until the next Saturday. Yay~!

Hey, anyone know what easter eggs are on this one?

Who changed the title of the thread? And THREE hours of RAW. uggg that makes it LESS appealing to me. I could barely get past 2 hours this past Monday. This pretty much guarentees RAW is getting taped.
