Forever Forward Fridays


JJZ: FYI, fast forward to about the 5 minute mark. Alright! We are going from. Meat slappy hoss battle to a speed VS power battle. This is an open challenge match so it was cool seeing the crowd's reaction to finding out the wrestlers. Just like the last FFF match this is No DQ, but this week's match is more fun and less heated than VS PBK. This was an entertaining spotfest. Perfect match to be live for. Hanson's always impressive with his agility being such a thick son of a bitch. Ricochet displayed quite a bit of power himself but man he can flip flop and fly.  Good match I'd love sharing with you homie.

CJD: I always like when we land on a match coincidentally when a wrestler is at a significant moment in their career. That's the case with Ricochet this Friday and this is a great showcase match for the One And Only. I thought he was the most impressive guy in there, and that's impressive in a match where everyone impressed! You mentioned the live energy of this match, which is what it was all about for me. The spontaneous booking, the open challenger reveals, and the seat of your pants style of match. This hit on a lot of fun indie cliches in a good way. Also I love any chance for some unexpected Angelico!

Forever Forward Fridays


CJD: This is, for my money, a really good match that has a few extra factors that make it great. I can't say I've watched a lot of wrestling from Texas outside of the territory days, and there's an unique atmosphere here for ROH I was way into. This is the earliest I've seen Lee and Taylor and they exceeded my expectations going this far back. I especially liked watching our FFFriday Champion, the Limitless One, as more of a roleplayer this week. I thought he was awesome as the breakout "heavy" on the Pretty Boy Killers. And the last bit of extra pizazz this match had going was the way this feud was portrayed and the way these two teams carried it. They were larger than life in every sense, much more than just their stature. All that wrapped up in a damn good plunder blowoff kind of match made this choice an easy one. Dig into a meat platter this Friday my man!!

JJZ: Talk about a hoss battle. This match was big in every sense of the word. Big spots, big strikes, and big men. Big men doing things that they had no right doing. I got a ton of ECW feels (minus the blood). It was like they had a BOGO sale on tables at Home Depot. They went through them like tissues when you have a cold. Honestly I've never been a Shane Taylor fan, so this match is definitely the best one I've seen from him so far. Lee and War Machine did their expected ridiculousness that they always do. This was a great blowoff for a feud. I'm sure they had some other bangers a long the way too.
