I follow the Indy wrestling scene.
Resistance Pro isn't bad and Shimmer is okay for women wrestling.

I follow the main guys from ROH like Steen, Edwards, Richards, Elgin, Briscoes, etc. Resistance, AAW, PWG, and Shimmer I kind of just pay attention to the promotion in general rather than a specific person. But a lot of them cross over anyway.

Even if the TNA thing is a work, this is the best spot for him. TNA needs a marketable main guy. AJ can make a nice nut as the TNA legend in ROH, even though he really hasn't drawn a dime. Great worker, seems like a decent guy. But he's a legend in a territory that once drew a crowd of 8,000.

They really are doing this part of the Summer of Punk the right way.
Styles will be back on TNA TV in January.

Well that doesn’t sound good…
- Sometime today, the Extreme Rising Twitter and Facebook accounts were deleted. There has been a lot of rumors and drama surrounding the promotion, most notably Luke Hawx discussing money issues in public and then leaving the promotion while still having physical procession of the Extreme Rising Title belt.
Extreme Rising's Steve O'Neill was going to release a statement to Pwinsider.com Sunday night, which never came. He will reportedly speak to the site this afternoon.
Extreme Rising is scheduled to run Friday and Saturday at the former ECW Arena in Philadelphia.

Kind of a meh 1st half of the show.
Bullet Club-Briscoes was good but short.
Steen-Nakamura was very good. The angle with Silas Young and Steen post match was good as well with Steen teasing going away.

Tanahashi-Mike Bennett was above average as well.
ReDragon beat Young Bucks to win the ROH Tag Titles. Amazing match. Kyle O'Reilly is going to be a stud.

Adam Cole retained the ROH Title against Jushin Liger. Not a bad match but there was never any real thought that Liger would win. Cole continues to be impressive. It's unreal that he's only 24.
IWGP Title match next. AJ Styles vs. Michael Elgin vs. Kazuchika Okada.

AJ beat Elgin and Okada to retain the IWGP Title. Good match. Adam Cole came out afterwards and attacked Styles and Okada.
Then the Fallen Angel showed up and announced he (and someone else) were coming back at Best in the World. Looks like Bad Influence is coming in.
Second half of the show was better than r he first. Solid B+ show.
ROH will need to be better for their first "real" PPV next month.
