I'm gonna sound like an idiot when I ask this but...what is Ring of Honor?

What makes it so much better than the WWE and TNA?

Unique Wrestling action from the United States featuring some of the United States top independent superstars such as Chris Daniels, AJ Styles, CM Punk, Samoa Joe, Steve Corino, Homicide, Bryan Danielson, Low Ki, Jay Lethal, Austin Aries etc.

They've got one of the best rosters on the scene to be honest with you, and at least every show you get something like 2 potential ****+ match up's.

Yeah, I've recently been turned on to it by our resident ROH marks...:lager: and I can't get enough. I've been downloading matches left and right and might even attempt to order some of their DVDs. They've got one hell of a thing going and I only hope that they don't end up like ECW did before them if and when they start to make it big.

I'm turned on by Kid to.

Too be fair, I’m not much of a RoH mark as I was back around 2003. But I still can’t escape the product


I can't get enough. I've been downloading matches left and right and might even attempt to order some of their DVDs.

That’s what I was like when I first got in to the product. Mainly because I viewed it as an alternative. You see, when I got in to it I didn’t have access to WWE (But I followed net reports etc) then I had a friend who lent me “RoH Crowning a champion” which I didn’t like at first, I couldn’t get in to the style. So I re watched it, and ****ing loved it. I ended up spending over £100 getting up to date on RoH buying ever single show to get up to date. It was great fun watching the shows in order though, watching Eddie Guerrero turn up with the Intercontinental title, to The prophecy formation, and disrespecting the code of honour, right on through to watching guys like Paul London or Samoa Joe turn up in the promotion and then turning the tables by making a name for them selves, Right on through to the current phase of the product, watching how it’s slowly changed and how certain stapes of the promotion in 2002 and 2003 have suddenly been phased out, and replaced by new exciting workers.

You see the way I look at it is there’s plenty more of Indy’s around these days than there was when ECW was around. Today we’ve got 3PW, CZW, PWG, IWA MS etc who probably don’t have the pulling power that RoH do, but they manage to put out an exciting product. If RoH where to ever fold what’d happen? I’d imagine that the majority of the roster would work dates for these considering most of them al ready do. The only promotion to me which can honestly match RoH is PWG!

I suppose if RoH where to fold, then I’d imagine a newer, and fresher product would come along. But it’s still something I don’t wish to see for a long time yet.

Do they have storylines, or is it just kickass high flying & technical action?

They do have storylines but they are much less storyline driven than the wwe. you won't see a lot of dramatic soap orpra type ****. But people do fued, and people do have reasons for battling each other.

I'd say Roh's main selling point though is their matches, i would consider them where the best actual in-ring wrestling takes place in america.

if you have bit torrent you can download whole wrestling shows off of this website.

http://tracker.pwtorrents.net/ (copy and paste that into address bar)

they have some ROH on their as well as occaisonaly some CZW and PWG. I don't know how to set up bit torrent for you if you don't have it because i had to have someone guide me through setting it up myself. (that person was funk master flash)
