    That's wild. Im actually not that familiar with the history of ROH. I would probably pay for this if it was a reasonable price

    Notable matches from the two shows

    The Golden Lovers & Chase Owens (?) vs Bullet Club (Hangman/Marty/Cody)
    The Young Bucks vs Juice Robinson & David Finlay
    Kushida vs Hiromu vs Flip Gordon (!)
    Taguci/Jay Lethal/Dalton Castle vs Best Friends & Switchblade
    Goto vs The Beer City Bruiser

    Day 2

    Taguci/Flip Gordon vs Bushi & Hiromu
    The Young Bucks vs Chuck Taylor/Yoshi-hashi/Switchblade
    Dalton Castle vs Beretta (ROH World Title)
    The Golden Lovers vs Marty Scurll & Cody

    Absolutely stacked. Hangman/Marty/Cody is working really well as a team right now, had a dope match at Honor Reigns Supreme last Friday against The Kingdom. Should be magic with Omega and Ibushi. Surprised to see another multi-man junior match so soon, should tear the house down.

    Chase Owens tho?

    I hate when people wrestle without footwear

    This is pro wrestling, you have no reason to not wear boots or shoes

    What matches have you checked out?

    It should be noted that he's only been wrestling for like two years, so to be working at the rate he is with the understanding he's shown so early speaks volumes on his potential. From a pure ability standpoint (not necessarily the best matches, even if consistently great) he's already in the top tier. Unbelievable look and charisma coming from UFC. Great blend of amateur wrestling with more heavyweight moves, has borrowed quite a bit from Omega recently and it fits him perfectly. Awesome looking strikes. He'd be in the WWE right now if it wasn't for the weed thing, they set him up with Evolve after his tryout. Makes it an issue with New Japan as well. He's having fun right now and I don't think he'd want to go for an ROH or Impact.
