i attended the show live and it was a good show but not better then Global Wars. How was the IPPV feed?? reDRragon vs. The Young Bucks was  ing awesome i have to say it was better then their War of The Worlds match, Adam Cole vs. AJ Styles was great. the Michael Elgin Jay Briscoe match was good but not great and the crowd was shocked when Jay hit the 2nd Jay Driller to get the pin, i guess there is problems with Elgin since i heard he's unhappy in ROH and it was a short title reign for some on that company. Jay Lethal vs. Cedric Alexander was good as well i really like Lethal as a heel. Random note, ACH probably had a run in with the Border I actually thought it was slightly better than Global Wars because of the AJ/Cole and Bucks/reDRagon matches. The iPPV was flawless for me but some people who didn't know how to adjust the bitrate settings to 480p when the feed started to buffer found themselves having quite a few issues. that's an encouraging sign for the future. i hope ROH does an IPPV every few months with a ppv 3 times a year |

You have to remember that the agreement with PPV carriers was for two shows and both shows have to hit a fixed number or else ROH loses that coverage. |

It's going to take a lot to do more than 10,000 for Final Battle. AJ Styles being on the show would help a hell of a lot. |

I think this show was better than Global Wars. I agree. I liked Global Wars a lot more than most but there was nothing on that shown near as good as Cole/AJ and reDRagon/Bucks, IMO. |

Elgin cost himself the ROH World Championship by saying that stupid sh-t about wanting to play baseball because he hit a home run at Field of Honor. What an idiot. I hope ROH cans him.

Elgin coast himself the belt. I'm happy that Jay won. Bucks/reDRagon always put on great matches, I need to watch this show when I have extra money.

I hope ROH cans him. thats exactly what i was thinking I was reading that Elgin losing the title was planned before he made those comments. Apparently NJPW wants the ROH Championship to appear overseas in 2015, but they have no interest in Elgin. I honestly don't think Jay will be that guy, either. I can definitely see Styles walking out of Final Battle with the strap. |

You spent a chunk of change at the show. Good to see Corino is repping the Phillies pride still. Lord knows someone needs to.

Bucks/reDRagon was all sorts of nifty. Tied for MOTN with AJ/Cole. Where's my homie Jonathan Karate? WE AIN'T GOTTA DEAL WITH ELGIN AS CHAMP NO MORE BROTHA Thank the heavens! Now that is a birthday present! Jay ing Briscoe is the king of unexpected title reigns. Beyond happy he's no longer champ and didn't win BOLA. Great month for us non-Elgin fans. |

If they bring in Styles AND Okada for Final Battle that would be absolutely insane.

Last night was awesome. I marked out so hard when Jay Won. my buddy and i told them in the intermission that they needed to keep their mouths shut, or we'd do securities job for them. then their was a few that were just sheep and following with their shit, it was just brutal. those guys ended up apologizing and offering us drinks, which i declined. |

Dave Meltzer - WrestlingObserver.com - Sunday, September 7. ROH in a weird way lucked out on the last minute decision to take the title off Michael Elgin last night. Elgin ended up stopped at the border due to working visa issues and will not be allowed in the United States for 90 days. Had they not done it, they'd have been without a champion or would have had to strip him of the title in an awkward manner. Michael Elgin - Ring Of Honor Update - PWInsider.com - Mike Johnson - Sunday, September 7 - Elgin's work visa for the United States expired and wasn't renewed. There are differing stories on what happened here but I am told the responsibility for that falls on Elgin's shoulders. Not having the work visa renewed meant that Elgin, who is Canadian, was not going to be able to return to the United States after traveling from the States to Toronto for last night's iPPV. Elgin has already canceled a date with AIW in Cleveland tonight, citing paperwork issues with his visa preventing him from entering the country. The word making the rounds is it will take at least 90 days to get all of Elgin's paperwork back in order. With ROH having 8 LIVE events, including three TV tapings in the next few months, they couldn't be without their champion. So, a title switch was in order if they wanted their champion in the mix building to Final Battle in NYC. www.pwinsider.com/article/88099/michael-elginring-of-honor-update.html?p=1 |
