Woooo! New show! Packed house! Standing room only! Mr. Daniels was at the beach the day before this PPV, his pal buried him up to his neck in the sand and he got a bad sunburn! I love your high kicking poses, they rock. You know how to move your guys around that ring, you don’t really need a bigger one to execute your matches. Double suicide dive! Nice finish to the first bout, leaving the door open to more rivaling evilness! Love your Jigsaw figure! I’m a sucker for those confrontation shots! I am not familiar with Jigsaw the wrestler, but I am a fan of the ROP Jigsaw! Beautiful top rope elbow from Jacobs! Hallowicked! Wooot! Great finale! A torneo cibernetico! Have no idea what that is but it sounds like something awesome! Ultimo Dragon and Dragon el Tire! Dragon el Tire, I love that name. You may have noticed I like masked heroes. Who is Kendrick’s partner? Paul London? Lol, yes! So expected it was honestly unexpected! Genius! As I must have said before, I study your tag matches very mucho. Damn, my guys lost! RVD got hurt bad! Woot! Cactus. Al Snow and Richards, 3 of my faves! Lol, I loved your Sandman entrance! A big fight ensues! Awesome back and forth action! FIRE! FIRE! Call the firemen! Damn, great hardcore match from start to finish, man. I don’t care for the guys in the following match, but the match itself still kicked butt hard! Amazing posing and hard hittin’ action! Main event time! I’m sure you are throwing the house out the window on this one. Don’t like Joe, so I will root for Mr. Punk. One page is not enough to hold this slobber knocker! Let’s hit Next! Joe is killing the man! Punk comeback! Rope break, so frustrating! Joe wins! Noooo! Oh, well. Great match anyhow! Liked the epilogue too! This **** has replied, lol!

Awesome man glad this is up, will reply after I finish refurbing my pc and get it set up in my room.Right first show I've watched on the new monitor. Awesome opening video, it was quite powerful and the use of Paul Simon made me extremely happy. Enjoyed the opening match, would love to see Ki & Daniels have a singles match in ROP soon. Glad that the titles didn't change hands but I'm glad that a disqualifcation finish was used to make Cheech and Ki look strong. Colons in the World Tag League should be awesome. The Cruiserweight macth was great and had me on the edge of my seat, Hallowicked coming in and cleaning house was a good move and I'm really looking forward to the Torneo Cibernetico match, this AOTF/Chikarmy feud is probably my favourite thing about ROP just now. London teaming with Kendrick was predictable but it was also the best decision and I'm glad you decided to use it, as for the match itself it was really good and I'm liking the Ultimo custom you used. Hopefully we'll find out who Dragon el Tire is now that Kendrick & London picked up the win. STEEN! I cannot express how great this is, Steen is on an excellent run right now and this was a brilliant move to bring him in. Liked the 6 man was a fun hardcore match and I'm looking forward to seeing how it progresses the feud. Wow! Is the only word I can use to describe Claudio/Nigel I really enjoyed it, great match man . Just when I thought that you couldn't top the Claudio/Nigel match you pulled out THE best main event I've seen from a pic fed in years, this match really captured the brilliance of the Joe/Punk matches and it was nice to see them revisited in an ROP ring. Wish Punk had won, however it's going to be nice to see someone else get a run with the belt now. Fantastic show as always Mikey. It's shows like this that have made ROP my favourite pic fed ever. Can't wait to see the Fallout on the next episode of Poison TV.

Oh man. ROP's big show is here. I'm settled in and ready! I'm going with the Prophecy on this one, but I still want to see Low-Ki kick somebodies head off. And those Low-Ki kickpad designs look awesome. Dang DQ! I only got to see Low-Ki kick a little bit. Haha, hopefully the unrest that results from the DQ will build to a guerrilla warfare / fight without honor type scenario between these two teams. Ok, Jigsaw vs. Jacobs is a match I am pumped to see. That was a great match. The Chikarmy and AOTF interactions were very well played out. Dang, I wish it was masked Hallowicked, but any Hallowicked is good. 5 on 5? I really hope Chris Hero is the 5th member of the Chikarmy. Regal in the Tag League? Regal and Danielson please. Speaking of teams, I really hope this is Kendrick and Paul London. Haha, love the name for the team - Double Dragon. YES! LONDON! Holy - double suicide dive to the outside! Both in mid air too! Man that was an awesome high flying match. And it's even better that Kendrick and London won it. I really hope they stay as a tag team, and maybe win the tag league. HOLY! RVD / Steen would be an amazing feud. Nice use of Steen, and nice fingers! Not to mention that custom is amazing. Oh man, Born To Be Wild is blaring in the arena! So many ECW images are flashing through my head with that music hitting. And just like that, Alice In Chains hits the speakers. Hey, I thought Alice In Chains was in that OTHER indy fed? Haha. Oh boy...if Sandman's music hits, I'm marking out big time. A huge grin just crossed my face. This is going to be amazing. SMOKE!! WOW! Never seen that before. BEER TOO! Man, this is going to be a sick brawl. Let me just say that the way you had Sandman sell that DDT was freaking accurate. I'm a huge Sandman fan, and he even leg drops with one leg in the air, one in a standing vertical position. HOLY barbwire on fire! That was a really awesome brawl. It felt so ECW like. It's hard to create that feeling, but you really pulled it off perfectly. Man, it's awesome to hear Nigel's music in ROP. This is going to be something special. Haha, love the European Uppercut exchanges at the start. Man, I was really pulling for Nigel on this one, but either man is deserving. Claudio is certainly on a roll in ROP. I wonder who'll put him down. Man, you should have used Miseria Cantare. Cult is too mainstream now. I love the size of the Joe Toybiz next to the Mattel Punk. It is so lifelike. Love that tree of woe dropkick attempt that Punk blocked. That was a really creative spot. HOLY Stiff knee strikes by Joe! Those looked way brutal. Ole kick! Chair and everything! Ok, Joe didn't fall to the Go 2 Sleep, there is hope for him! Come on Joe! OH MAN! JOE WON! HOLY YES! Punk's popularity did not effect the outcome, or it did in a positive way! YES! Ok, let me just say. Ever since I got that jacket with Burchill, I have planned to use it for Raven one day. It's like, EXACTLY what he wore in his WWF blonde braid days. But now you beat me to it! Awesome ending by Punk. That was a great show Mikey. It felt as big as it was. You always turn out big for your events, and this was no exception. Very enjoyable. Now I need to go finish filming Raven / Necro!

Doesn't seem like 2 minutes since I was sat here at my laptop replying to the recent episode of ROP. You got this out quick and I want to know your secret......... seriously pm. I want to know how you can get a PPV out so quick, is it because you film straight after and ROP episode or? Moving on, Cloudy teaming up with Low Ki, good move. Taking on The Prophecy for the titles, so starting the PPV off with tag team action. Your strong point. So straight away I know its gonna be off the hook. Was a pretty decent match to be fair, got the PPV off to a good start although was a little bit disappointed by the outcome BUT would love to see this storyline carried on. Which I know you have that in mind anyway. A nice little promo backstage with Carlito and straight into some more action. Love it. I just like the fact you go straight into matches unlike myself I have a few backstage segments before the actual match haha. So Jigsaw, we have seen this guy in ROP before and you used him bloody well and I'm sure you can do the same maybe even better. And Jimmy Jacobs, we haven't seen him for a while so it should be good how you work on that. For some reason this match had some of your best poses dude be happy about that one. that C4 was just sick and nicely done. A match to be proud of dude, kept me on the edge of my seat. BRILLIANT to see Hallowicked back in ROP with a change of appearance as well and I love it. Loved that little segment with Ryder and Regal haha. WOW, was really surprised to see Kendrick announce London as his partner. Brilliant tag team and I have all the faith that you will use them well BUT hopefully we see something from Alex Shelly. Of course it was great seeing London and Kendrick together and also picking up a win in what was a decent match. Shame we saw no Shelly though, hopefully that storyline will carry on from ROP epi 8. Interesting segment here with Kevin Steen interrupting and laying out RVD and mentioning the start to a revolution. This is something I will be looking forward to, don't let me down now cause I may even vote for storyline of the year going off what I have just seen. Brilliant seeing Cactus Jack and Al Snow together (irl they are best buddies as well) This is gonna be amazing. Just brings back so many memories seeing these guys go at (just like it did with TNA Hardcore Justice that year). SANDMAN, SANDMAN OH MY GOD and he is smoking......... EXCELLENT. This was just a INSTANT classic dude. Forget about tag team wrestling being your strong point........THIS IS YOUR STRONG POINT, hardcore matches. I want to see more from you haha. When Funk brought out that barbed wired board that just did it for me. Nostalgia put in to first gear. The fire effects were great but you shouldn't have had them all the way down the bat cause really that would burn your hand, I know Mick is the hardcore legend but not that hardcore. Nigel McGuiness? Wasnt his name Desmonde Wolfe in ROP not so long ago? Oh well. Was a great match throughout. Deluxe figures are great for posing and you showed why in this match. Was great to see Claudio retain. Time for the main event between the long anticipated, Samoa Joe vs Jesus... I mean CM Punk. The first 2 poses when they were trading punches you could have done a little better in my opinion. But this match was a classic I adored it, through and through. There is just something about ROP. I just loved the way you caught Punk's mannerisms, with the knee pad and all. Shadows of Money In The Bank much? Was suprised to see Joe win but hey ROP has a new champion. This will sure to shake things up. Love the fact that Raven has somehow managed to get into the head of CM Punk. Great show dude, once again. Your lucky I didn't delete this comment though seeing that you put the C word there at the end hehe. Remember we have to keep it PG for the minors.

Oh my god! It's up! As always, your customs are fantastic, your arena is simplistic yet awesome because of the real indie feel. Do you shoot on a table or the floor?The Low Ki custom is one of your best.The entrance for Daniels and his partner was so realistic, it was awesome! Your commentary is always so detailed and realistic, as well.The head of your Daniels does not match the body. I would try to paint it if I were you. You should try to take some more pictures. In the tag match, one second Cheech was in the corner tagging in, the next drop kicking Cloudy, and the next kicking Cloudy in the corner.Great tag team match minus the small errors I pointed out.It'll be interesting to see the Colons in your tag division. You made a commentary mistake in the Cruiserweight match- You said Jigsaw out at two when Jacobs was the one being pinned. (It's the same things that count.)What a match between Jacobs/Jigsaw! Very nicely paced and a good mixture of styles from each man.The Ryder/Regal/Gresham segment made me curious.I figured London would be the partner, which is not a bad thing. Spanky/London FTW! Fantastic match! Only it felt a tad short. Maybe in comparison to the last match.I wonder what the World Tag league is. Kevin Steen AND RVD? Holy cow.Wow that was intense! I am really looking forward to the revolution!Lol at the commentary about Al Snow.Oh man! Sandman! Now that's an extreme dream if I ever saw one- Funker/Dreamer and Sandman.Nice beer and smoke effects.This is gonna get bloody and hardcore fast.What an insane bout! Loved the spots and ECW real feel to it.Awesome flame effects btw.I'm really looking forward to this match, Claudio vs. Nigel. Nice custom of Nigel.Again, an error where you used the wrong name, sorry. "Nigel forced into the corner by Nigel.Very very awesome match, loved the techincal and brawling and some high flying mix. Right winner in my book. Besides one or two small errors, here you displayed some fantastic commentary. Joe/Punk will be surely amazing.Awesome, you used Punk's new theme!Two year reign for Punk, holy cow, not THAT's old school (in a good way.) Personally I think a two count so early in the match was not the right way to go. Two part match? Wow. Joe soaring to the outside was such a great picture, I can't even explain it.Joe with the Ole! Kick? Awesome!The middle of the GTS sequence was off. Joe was vertical instead of horizontal.WHAT? No way!!!! That caught me 100% off guard. Pepsi Plunge to a Muscle Buster! Joe wins!Raven handing Joe the gold. That could and should lead to something very interesting. What a show! Great matches, real quality. A few minor errors here and there,but you improved the ones I pointed out last time. Punk/Joe was not the match of the night in my book. It was pretty short (even though it was split in two parts. Maybe it just felt short because of that?) and not as technical as I was expecting. I loved seeing several indie moves and the real highlight reel spots, but I really thought it'd be more technical. As I said, Raven/Joe and even Regal/Gresham/Ryder and the World Tag league will be really interesting to see where they go.

This is probably your most solid card to date. I've left you dozens of comments through the year, so I'm not going to repeat some of my same criticisms or compliments. Instead I just want to focus on the show elements.
Jigsaw/Jacobs was great high energy fun and I loved that Hallowicked returned to play a factor. It had been quite a while since we saw him and it's nice to see a nod to that storyline dating all the way back to the unmasking.
The Dragons/London & Kendrick match was also tons of high flying, high energy and it was neat to see London show up. Loved his coat. Although you seemed to miscall that Tope Con Hilo, or just didn't photo the actual con hilo element. Still it had a great Toryumon feel to the whole match and I was actually a bit shocked to see the winners. I hope you can do more solid tag matches like this, especially if you're planning a league element.
Kevin Steen's a goof, but you introduced him well.
Even though it was way over the top in a good way, the ECW match was far and away the most fun match of the night. To be honest, all the flavor of the month indy guys are great and stuff and I know everybody loves them, but your treatment of the ECW stuff is the best and it's really where the fed flourishes, IMO. You could drop everything else and do old school ECW and you wouldn't offend me none.
Claudio/Nigel didn't do as much for me. Nothing against your match, just not a huge fan of Claudio and the character development just didn't seem as much there. Especially for a semi, but I know you've been pushing Claudio pretty hard.
Now onto the best stuff of the night. No overbooking, no mess, just an instant classic. Joe and Punk giving it everything. Toy Biz proving they made the best wrestling figures ever, as well. The added poseability of Joe really allowed you to create magic here. Back and forth, and Punk really taking it to Joe, but Joe coming out on top. Really looking forward to the era of Samoa Joe.
All in all, great show man. Like I said, probably your best overall show.

Ahh im syked.. Exciting opening match. Loved the double suicide dive spot. Strong ending with The Prophecy getting DQed. Im sure Low Ki and Cloudy will get their rematch soon enough. Jacobs/Jigsaw high paced match. lots of good faction-warfare in this one. Good to see Hallowicked return and get his revenge on AOTF. New champ! Hell yea.. 5v5 match next month great build up. Haha, had a suspision London would team with Kendrick.. Good match, good win with the Sliced Bread #2. Keep these 2 together for the world tag league! Nice segment there with Steen and RVD. Wouldnt mind seeing these two go one on one soon. Nice mention of RVD Christian btw, that fued all but inspired me to be a pic-fedder! Al Snow. Aha.. Ooft AIC entrance tunage for Dreamer. I forgot he even used that song.. I KNEW THE SANDMAN WOULD BE MYSTERY PARTNER! I guessed it. I was going to offer you my Sandman figure on FB ironically.. I believe thats the Foley figure I sold you too, right? That was absolute chaos! Nice old school ROP extreme brawl! Great match with Claudio/Mcguiness.. Not too bad for a filler match between 2 main event calibur matches. I love that Wolfe figure.. Joe/Punk time! Never gets old! .. Great match, lots of signature moves from the both of them. Im glad Joe won, I kind of wanted Punk to win. Im looking forward to the continuation of the Raven/Punk fued. Nice moment at the end of the match with the 'passing of the torch'. - Overall I really enjoyed this show, as i do most of your shows. The build up and the event were both put together superbly. Getton Mikey

Imma call you Guru, for old times sake. First of all, can I just say that I am so sorry for missing all of these amazing ROP shows that you have been dishing out. I have just had an actual 'ROP DAY' in my house - LOL. Good news is, I have caught up. And this show just looks fookin' amazing. LOVE the DVD cover, amazing work there as always. The arena looks clean but still has the sort of ROP FEEL about it. Nice opening match, love the mix of figure type. Colons, hmm - COOL. The Age Of The Fall stroyline has just been AMAZING. Hallowicked to return soon though plz. DOUBLE DRAGON. fookin' LOVE that team. but I have a soft spot for Kendrink&London, haha! Quick match, had alot of potential would of like to have seen more but sure I'll see more of them soon... TAG TOURNEY, OH HELLO. RVD, great ROP matches in the past.... OMFG WHAT THE MIKEYREYNOLDS IT'S KEVIN STEEEEEENNNN IN ROP~! Never in my pic feeding life have I been more excited to see what your gunna do with this man. YES YES & YES. Right so loads of ROP LEGENDS. This is gunna be hardcore I'm guessing? ... YES IT IS. So reminds me of the good old days, pure ECW/ROP at it's finest. FIRE, YES. Amazing match, great card so far. Classic Raven segment! OH WOW Wolfe got a paint job. AMAZING MATCH. Reminded me very much of Nigels ROH World Title run, that match. Can't wait to see more from both these guys! Okay so this is even more exciting after seeing WWEML Samoa Joe (which I LOVE) practically just jump show to ROP! YESSS. WOWZERS. what a match, honestly can't believe Joe won! AMAZING OUTCOME! Can't wait to see where you take Joe, hopefully he has a really nice run with the title & has some classic bouts. Overall Guru, this was SICK. Can't wait for more.

Its Ring of Poison time biatches. -Love the opening video. The website is also very slick looking, as is your arena. -Hallowicked is one scary looking figure. -Loved the Regal/Ryder segment. -Double sliced break was cool. -Yeah Mikey, poor old Kevin Steen! -Sandman entrance was golden. -"My god! Cactus Jack, the sick bastard!" made be laugh out loud. -The flaming bat looked reall cool. -Joe vs Punk was phenomenal. You're brave having Punk drop the title to Joe in this climate. Ha! -Your commentary is entertaining, as always. Criticisms? You need new ring posts that don't bend. Seriously, that's my only bit of advice. Flawless.

Loved Claudio and Nigel.. wished Nigel would have won but thats life right?
Hated that Joe ended Punks Reign adn that Raven is back.
Steen coming in is cool..however..it seems like you took what happened from ROh and transplanted it into your fed.
Liked London and Kendrick teaming together.. disapointed to see Dragon masked still though as that is the hottest angle in ROP right now.
Jimmy Jacobs losing was the right thing to do.
Your poses and your storytelling were as always top notch.

Meant to get a reply out to this earlier, but I just never could find the time.
First off, I loved that opening video segment. It was just excellent.
Nice opening tag match. Tag matches always seem to be your specialty, and this one delivered as well. Nice DQ ending.
Great seeing Hallowicked back, and to see the CHIKARMY get the win over the AOTF in this battle, although I'm sure the war between the two factions isn't over yet.
LONDON! Nice seeing Spanky and London back together. I have great faith that you'll use them well in ROP.
The Hardcore tag-match was GREAT. Seriously, loved every minute of it. The flaming bat looked freaking sick. Excellent work with that match.
And now, the main event. I was so excited to see Joe win. Excellent match-up between two of my favorites. It's also nice to see CM Punk featured in so many feds. Who knew that he could work out a deal between ROP, WWEF, UWA, WWEML, etc.? haha.
Excellent show, Mikey. My favorite match was the hardcore tag match, but that's just me. The Main Event was great as well. Looking forward to the next edition of POISON TV.
