Ring of Honor Sucks (10/23/14)



Ring of Honor sucked this week.  That's unfortunate.

At the end of the day this is a hit and miss company.  There have been more hits than misses lately.  So there's that.

But here's what happened this week.

Briscoe's promo might have been the best part of the episode.  



It wasn't very long.  He just let us know that Mike Bennett was getting a title match next week.  Oh yeah, and Jay's coming for Mike's ass.  He wanted us to know that he's coming for Mike's ass.

Gonna be awesome!

TaDarius Thomas Vs. Adam Cole Page 



I have to remember that Adam Page is the one with the better hair.

This goes down as best match of the night.  And it wasn't very good.

Apart from a spot where Thomas was dangling out of the ring by his leg and Page smacked him the knee with a steel chair; everything else sucked.

Except for the ending where Thomas grabbed that chair back and starts beating the shit out of Page, right?

And BJ Whitmore, Roderick Strong and Jimmy Jacobs are outside yelling at him to keep at it!

And Caprice Coleman (Who did a great job on color commentary this week.) is shouting at Thomas about how he's better than that.  It's the preacher in him.  

So finally Thomas says, fuck it!  And he smacks Jimmy Jacobs off the ring apron with the chair and walks out.

The decade is like, "What the fuck!?"  And Adam Page is sitting there like, "I have no idea what just happened but thank God he stopped hitting me!"

And Caprice was like, "He says you're welcome."

Adam Cole went all Marsha Brady on us.  



Mike Bennett cut a promo in the ring about how he's gonna win the belt next week.

Adam Cole got really whiney about how it's him who should have gotten the shot.  What a baby.  I don't even know where he was going with that.  Did he think Bennett was gonna give him the title shot instead?

Who knows.  In the end Maria Kanellis talked him out of whatever he was gonna say and now he's super pumped for his buddy, Mike.  I wonder what that's all about?




The Romantic Touch took on Hanson


Separately, the Romantic Touch and Hanson kill my wrestling boner.  Combine the two?  And they annihilate it.

This wasn't very diligent of me, but I spent the entire match fantasizing about Hell in a Cell this Sunday and whether or not Brock Lesnar would show up at Survivor Series.  

I couldn't even watch the main event.  


Cedric Alexander took on Adam Cole here.  The one who's hair is also good.

This was so boring.  I must have watched a few minutes but it felt like hours.  I skipped to the end but I don't remember who won.

Cedric has matches like this every now and again.  Cole seems to have them all the time.  No idea why this guys is as popular as he is.

Bottom Line?  


Jay Vs. Bennett is gonna be killer next week.

The decade can't break up soon enough.  I'm hoping both Thomas and Page come out better for it.
