The last ROH shows I bought were the Japan shows, so I'm pretty far behind. I'm looking to go from there to the present. I'll be doing the B3G1F deal here in a few weeks so I'll throw out some shows I'm looking at & give me you're top 4. If you have a suggestion for another title, feel free to post it.
Driven
Manhatten Mayhem II
Man Up
Undeniable
Glory By Honor 6 N1
Glory By Honor 6 N2
Rising Above
Final Battle 2007
6th Anniversary Show

My Picks:
1) Driven. 2 Dragon MOTYC, and a good ppv all around
2) Man Up. The AOTF debut, Sydal's goodbye, insane Ladder War and a great PPV all around.
3) GBH 6 Night 1. Aries/Dragon is awesomeness, the NOAH tag is very good, and the scramble is pretty good. I liked it a lot better than Night 2.
4) Final Battle: Great 4-Way, good main event, Marufuji/Richards is awesome, Butcher/Evans is good too. The only thing that is really bad about it is that the crowd is unusually quiet.
I think those are the best all around picks out of those, but I haven't seen 6YS yet.

Man Up, see reason stated above. I'd also vouch for Final Battle 07 as I heard it was a great show and you can never go wrong watching AOTF win the tag titles.

Manhattan Mayhem II is a must. I'd also get Man up, Glory By Honor Night 2 and either Rising Above, Driven, 6th Anniversary or Final Battle. I found Final Battle overall to be overrated and the first three matches are awful but Richards/Marufuji and the Briscoes/AOTF are both really good. The 4 way is good but not as good as some made it out to be, no surprise there though.

Let's see here.
Driven
-Great show, especially for the Nigel/Dragon match. The tag team main event is also a great heads up contest. This was one of their pure tag team matches they had in the Steenerico/Briscoes fued. Because after this it was street fights and ladder matches.
Manhatten Mayhem II
-Great show from top to bottom. I only watched the first half and seemed to have misplaced the DVD! But from what I saw it was fun. I actually enjoyed Danielson/PAC.
Man Up
-Only saw the PPV version but really enjoyed it. I expected a little more out of the opening 4 way, but it was still good. The Resiliance/NRC elimination series was good, then you had the Ladder Match. It was a GREAT match with lots of awesome spots, but didn't deserve the match of the year chants at the end.
Undeniable
-I usually don't watch my DVDs in order and this has been one that has suffered. I haven't watched all of it, but have heard great things from top to bottom. The only thing I did watch was Nigel/Morishima. And it was just great. I think the DVD is worth the title change alone, then add the rest as a bonus.
Glory By Honor 6 N1
-It was a great little show. Both nights are worth the price of admission and then some.
Glory By Honor 6 N2
-See above.
Rising Above
-Finally finished this up a day or so ago. Awesome PPV and I thought it was the best PPV from top to bottom. Nigel/Aries is just awesome. Then you got a little bit of everything mixed in between. The Briscoes/NRC match was a little underrated, but I really enjoyed the 2/3 falls concept for it. Get it for Nigel/Aries alone.
Final Battle 2007
-Trying to finish that up at the moment. I'm up to the #1 contenders four way. To tell you the truth, out of your entire list, I'd actually put this one at the bottom. It's been a little disapointing so far. The tables match was fun, and Strong/Stevens was really good (I always enjoy those two squaring off). But some of the other stuff came off flat to me.
6th Anniversary Show
(Not out yet......)
I'd also like to point your attention to the Transform main event. It's wild, it's crazy and it's just a great action packed match with the crowd standing on their feet most of the match.

Man Up is an absolute must. One of the best wrestling shows out there. Driven is also really really awesome. If I were to pick 2 more, I'd get Manhattan Mayhem 2 and GBH VI Night 1.

As soon as I saw the thread name I thought of the PPV Man Up. It's a great DVD.

I was at Driven & Man Up, so I know those shows were great & knew I should get them when I got a chance. So I guess those are my op 2, so I have to make the desision about the other two. I might hold off on 6YA because its just coming out this weekend so I'll wait to read some more reviews. Thanks everyone for your imput.

I think you mean Davey Richards/PAC Whoops, my bad, I remember PAC being on that show. But I'm not confused right, Danielson and PAC did cross pathes in ROH....was it maybe the night before or after? |

Proving Ground was pretty kickass. It's a very underrated show. Steen/Necro and Aries/Stevens were both, amazing matches. I highly reccommend it
