Awesome show Mikey, nice touch with the tribute to Sweeney and Savage to start off the show, I enjoyed all of the matches especially the Claudio/Hero match. I like that Punk retained and the Age of The Fall/Chikarmy feud is freaking awesome. And Cheech turning on Cloudy to join the Prophecy was brilliant too. Keep up the great work.

First off I love your logo for the show Mikey! Kendrick is facing the Dragon in a great match. Kendrick really destroyed the Dragon. The match had some great wrestling and it was great to see Ultimo Dragon return to save his student. I think it would be interesting if you had Big Zeke debut as Kendrick's bodyguard to face Ultimo Dragon and the Dragon. The Age of The Fall is extremely interesting. Jacobs promo was great, and I loved the effect of the black and white color. Daniels and Sydal had a good short match until Cheech helped them win the tag titles and solve the mess of the tag titles. Zack F'n Ryder might be coming to ROP! That would be incredible. Morrison's promo was good and showed his transition of a character. The Age of the Fall vs. CHIKArmy was good. I was satisfied with the ending too. I think Jacobs will eventually face Mike Quackenbush for the ROP Cruiserweight Championship and Mike will win the title. Wolfe and Regal pulled a great match off! I don't like the size difference of Wolfe and RA figures but that it fine. I hope to see Desmond in the ROP Championship contenders spot soon, but I can only dream at the moment. I can't believe all of the former ECW guys coming out during that match. Dreamer overcame odds for sure and I could definitely tell this was a match to only advance the story. Hero vs. Claudio was one hell of a match! I loved the wrestling in that match but I was angry when Hero lost. It was great to see them shake hands because there was respect earned for both of them. Now for the main event between CM Punk and his mystery opponent. The mystery opponent surprised me! I couldn't believe Y2J came out as the mystery!!! The match had some incredible action and Jericho almost got away with the victory. I really liked the ending promo from Jericho! That show was great and I can't wait for more ROP action!

Wow, was it me or that show was long? Not complaining, bro! One thing I can tell by your show is that you are having a blast doing it. I like the fact that your approach is very minimalistic, but the result is still top notch. Arena? Use the kitchen cabinet! Crowd, barriers, announcers? We just need a ring, that's where it all takes place! A big entrance stage? The cabinet is small enough to bother with that! And it still looks cool, and it looks fun, and it shows you don't let the clutter get in your way of putting on your show, making your matches and telling your stories. Hope you don't take any comments the wrong way, bro, because all I see in your shows and set up are pros! Kudos!!!

New ROP! I'm looking forward to this, especially since seeing that Desmond pic. Nice tribute to open the show. Man, it looks SO indy with all those guys in the ring at the beginning. Like something you'd see in the old CZW. Yay! Starting things out with Kendrick. Can't go wrong with him. Dragon vs. Kendrick, hopefully, will be a high flying spectacle. Nice healthy use of string throughout this first match. It's refreshing to see a submission move being used for a finisher by Kendrick. That adds some variety. Uh oh! ULTIMO! Nice gold attire. I would like to see some kind of Dragon connection team with these two. Awesome AOTF Jacobs promo. The black and white effect works well and sets the mood. Prophecy vs. Up In Smoke was a nice and solid tag match with some good back and forth action. I really liked the superkick pose, and the turn at the end was very unexpected. I'm wondering where it will go, especially since Up In Smoke have been a huge part of the tag scene in ROP. John Morrison in ROP? This could be interesting. I'd like to see what you have planned, as my reaction was also "what is he doing here?" Ok, huge match between Chikarmy and AOTF. I'm rooting for the Chikarmy on this one, as there is just too much goodness going on there. LOVE that belly to back suplex pose with Kingston. It just looks like so much force is behind it. Oh man, Wolfe vs. Regal. This is going to be great. Great chain wrestling at the start that ends abruptly with a big punch to Regal's eye. Nice way to show the violent and angry side of Wolfe. YES! Rebound lariat! Loved that match. Nice, hard hitting, to the point action. Dreamer vs. Richards. First off, let me just say that I love you for giving Stevie the kilt. Yay blood! You have really slick blood effects, at least I think they are effects. Either way, it looks good. Al Snow!? That's definitely something I did not see coming. DDT to head was a really nice spot, and something I could totally see happening in ECW. CACTUS JACK! Love the Japan attire you gave Cactus. Loving all the ECW guys showing up here. It's like you have all the bases covered, with the different eras of indy. Hero vs. Claudio! This is going to be a classic for sure. The action is great in this one. Waterslide looked cool, and not sure I have seen that used in ROP before. A bit surprised Claudio picked up the win, but I'm not complaining. Good to see the Kings shake afterwards. Let me just say, I loved that Raven video. Awesome looking and has me pumped. JERICHO!?? I truly did not see this coming. It's good to know there are true shocks to be had in the pic fedding scene. Watching this match, I think you work very well with Mattel figures. The wrestling in this match is very fluid and nice. Hehehe Jericho used the armbar. Wow I love that mid air codebreaker shot! Really well done. I knew Punk would retain (well, at least I thought) and I'm glad. I also like how you had Jericho get on the mic afterwards and speak like he was brought in to have a good match. That's how it felt, and how it would have went down in PWG or so. Very realistic feel to it. Well, shoot. That was a HUGE event with a lot jammed in it. It felt like a full DVD's worth of a show. 2 discs even! Keep up the good work. You are definitely a staple of this board, and it's always good to have more indy stuff going on in the pic fed world.

Mikey, great work as always. Start to finish this show kept me entertained. Great work.
Really shocked at the tag-match finish, and JERICHO?!?! Awesome! I wonder if he'll stick around in ROP?
The Raven video was great as well. I'm a huge Raven fan, so seeing you hype him like that was sweet.
Great matches, great action, and you capture the 'indy' feel perfectly. Also, nice touch on the tribute at the beginning of the show.
Awesome job, can't wait for the next show.

ROP! I love me some ROP. Love the start with all the wrestlers in the ring, reminds me of a TPI. Great tribute to Macho Man and Larry Sweeney. Solid opener with Kendrick/Dragon. That is a sick gold Ultimo! Hopefully some tag action with the dragons coming up soon! Good Jacobs promo, love the black and white effect on it, fit it perfectly. What!? Cheech turns on Cloudy! Oh man, wasn't expecting that at all! Good tag match! I love that Gresham custom, just so you know. RYDER!! Yes please! Great Chikara style 6-man, glad to see the Chikarmy pick up the win! Fantastic match between Regal and Wolfe! Probably my favorite match of the show yet! Al Snow! Oh my God! DREAMER JUST DDT'D HEAD!!! Hahaha, that's the greatest thing ever! Funk's back! My god this is crazy! What happened to Excalibur on commentary? Did I miss something? Another great match between Hero and Castagnoli, glad to see Castagnoli retain! JERICHO!! Man! What a main event! Great stuff Mikey! And Jericho thanks the fans, classy stuff. Great stuff man, probably my favorite show you've put out yet!

Fantastic stuff Mikey, it definately has a 'big' show feel to it. Some nice poses, great storytelling and that indy feel make it a top notch event.

Thanks for all the comments so far guys! What happened to Excalibur on commentary? Did I miss something? Brian Kendrick attacked Excalibur while Ex conducted an in-ring interview with him, and injured his neck, so he's been replaced by Striker. It happened on Poison TV 4, its in my post "new rop stuff" or whatever that is all my shows from when everything on the board was a bit crazy.

Breaking the Code, isn't that the name of....... Forget it. So yeah, I have to say and sorry for not replying to the other shows but you will be pleased to know Mikey Boy, I have been viewing them so, sweat over my friend. Everytime I view your shows I swear I'm gonna have heart attack with the music that comes on all of a sudden. I have to say your show was set at a perfect pace and I just had to see it after seeing that badass picture you posted of Wolfe on the discussion board. I think I have said before but, I love your customs they are outta this world. I loved how you used a mattel for Daniels and I take it your not fond of the head scans of Bourne, I mean Sydal out there at the moment, but it still worked. LOL at the little segment with Zack Ryder's Youtube show . Your backstage segments were short and had that lovely sweet flavour to them. Loved seeing the debut of John Morr... Johnny Nitro (its becoming a habbit this). Was hoping to see The age of falls pick upthe win but unfortunalty not, shame maybe next time huh? But was a very very decent match indeedio. WOLFE, it is pretty badass seeing Wolfe inyour fed dude and I believe he will fit right in. You have to agree though, the earlier TNA figs are ridiculously HUGE (thats what she said) I remember buying Samoa Joe for my fed and it was just stupid. Loved seeing the Extreme takeover in the Dreamer vs Richards, IM MARKING OUT BRO, TERRY FUNK!!! JERICHO!!! I SHOULD HAVE KNOWN, I think I knew along. Takes me back to 2007 when Jericho did actually return, oh brilliant moments. EVVVVVVVVVVER hehe had to be done!!! What a great main event for ROP, I know how bloody tricky Mattel basics can be to pose but maybe work on that for next show. Glad to see Punk win, opening up for a storyline between both men, will be a classic I'm sure of it. I have a feeling you can only get better my friend. This was probably one of your best pieces of work in my opinion. Looking forward to the aftermath now and I promise I will get a reply out sooner instead of like 6 months later hehe RIP MACHO MAN

Awesome show man. This was one of my most anticipated shows, and it certainly lived up to the hype. Nice tribute for Macho and Larry, both me definitely deserved it. Awesome first match, nice to see some string poses. Nice Jacobs promo, the b & w effect is simple yet effective. I liked how Cheech screwed Cloudy, the fallout should be interested. Good to see the Chikararmy get the win, but I have a feeling this one is not over. Wolfe/Regal was probably my favorite match of the night, I see Wolfe doing big things in ROP. Dreamer match was ok, not as hardcore as I was expecting, but awesome to see Cactus and Funk back. Claudio/Hero was awesome! Wish Hero would have won, but maybe he will move on to the World Title. Jericho! I was legitimately surprised. The match was great, good to see Punk get the win, but hope Jericho sticks around.
Overall, Awesome show mikey. However, there is one problem I have with ROP, and that is some of the customs. While I understand that customizing is hard, I would at least make an effort not to show chipped paint, cracked torsos, etc.
But awesome show, cant wait for the next one!

Alright, great opening segment and nice tribute to Macho and Sweet and Sour. Opening match was solid. I really like how you've developed Brian Kendrick. The Prophecy vs Up in smoke. Luv your tag team division. Ahhh damn, was not expecting that ending nor that swerve. Craziness! Can't wait to see where this goes. LOL, Zack Ryder..yes! The rebirth of Nitro...hmmmm. Chikarmy vs Age of the Fall was great. This feud has been really interesting. Wolfe vs Regal was solid but damn Wolfe looks like a giant! Overall, the show was top notch. THe IC match with Hero and Castognoli was a great match with two guys with lots of history which made it more interesting. Jericho was a bit of a surprise but I was even more surprised he lost. But I like how you're building Punk. A great show with lots of action and lots to buld on! Keep it up!

It was a solid show Mikey. Watched it the other day. My only complaint is the amazing of times we have to click next for a segment to load. I thought your posing was solid all the way through but even like N1SF said, the paint chips take away a little bit presentation wise. Otherwise, stay crative as you are man. A solid show indeed!

Great Great great show mikey. You are so consistent with this thing I really do envy what you've done man I just wish more people would reply because I can really see the effort in your shows. Everything is always clean in terms of presentation, good lighting, decent poses and most of all excellent storylines, and commentary. Keep up the great work bro. My favorites were Hero vs CC and Wolfe vs Regal. Great stuff as always

To me ROP is among the very best in the history of Pic Feds. If this is the same ROP I was looking at at age 13 and so on then yes it is one of the best. I can't remember who did it is why I say that. The show overall was good but I felt it was a bit under par to the amazing ROP shows I remember. Still good overall. Other than a little more attention to detail and maybe some more custom practice I wouldn't change much of anything. 7/10. Always ready to see more. ROP! ROP! ROP!

I'd assume this is the same ROP, this is my 7th year of doing it now - damn I feel old! Thanks for the feedback everyone, as always. Glad you enjoyed the show!
