ROH roster is the worst its been in years. Because of the Young Bucks ROH is doing their best bussiness ever.

Changed the game with their t shirt sales, youtube show and self promotion.


Despite all the extra shyt, people who watch ROH know they also have great matches :manny:

As lame as I think they are......I could never hate on their business acumen or their athleticism.....and that is what will more than likely make that statement in the OP true. That being said I can think of at least 15 teams I would rather watch any day of the week.

More power to them, they’re making crazy moves without a marketing machine like WWE behind them and they have entertaining matches.

Also they have great matches while letting fans in on the fact that it’s a work not insulting the fans intelligence, I think it makes the smarks feel like they’re in on the joke “one sweet” “cease and desist” etc.

But they consistently deliver in big matches so :manny:

To be honest I haven't watched enough of their shyt to form much of an opinion. But are they actually making people mad? :heh: If so ... props, I guess.

I'll just comment on the few impressions of them that I've had.

If you're into high spots I guess they're really good. But it seems like the other way they appeal to fans is ... making people feel like they're in on the secret that wrestling is fake? Their fans like them because they don't even pretend it's real and instead actually make fun of the fans who suspend disbelief? Making their fans feel like they have cool athletic friends who are actually in the business for the fukkery?

:rudy:
Come on now.
No doubt these dudes are athletic, but they're not remotely tough-looking. :pachaha:

I don't know ... I don't really see the point of watching a pro wrestling match if you're not gonna pretend it's a fight while it's actually happening.

As I said though, I'm really not that familiar with them and therefore I could be missing a big part of what they're about. People can like wrestlers for whatever reason they want to, but I'm pretty sure there are a few dozen tag teams in history that I'd rather watch.

And that sequence that Daniel Cormier complained about? Embarrassing, man. Awful. If that was a one-off, fine, but if they're doing that shyt on the regular, it doesn't even fall under the category of pro wrestling. :russ:

One of the best teams of all time? I doubt it. But it seems like they're doing pretty well for themselves, so that's the wrestling business today, I guess. :yeshrug:

Why can't they be considered one of the best tag teams of all time? Is it because they aren't in WWE? Is it because of their gimmick? Is it the moveset they have?

Name a tag team in the past 7 year's that's pumped out consistently good matches as The Buck's have?
