•ROH In The Media

It was again another slow week for ROH wrestlers in the podcast/Media world. As always BTE had a new episode this week. Take my advice and give it a watch. It was a great episode.
Wade Keller was on Sam Roberts’ podcast this week. The two didn’t talk ROH per se, but Sam and Wade always have great chemistry. Please go give that a listen as well as Wade’s Friday podcast weekly.

Also, if for some reason you are not listening to Talking Honor with Harley and Emily then you are really doing yourself a disservice. The two do a great job recapping the week that was in ROH and giving their unique perspective on the company.

•Social Media Scene

Below is this week’s round-up of social media posts from ROH personalities.

ROH in Vegas, In March. That Vacation almost plans itself.

Both are not in Super Smash Bros. So I guess I see the resemblance.

I have a hot take on this match in the closing commentary.

I hope that’s not Smokin’ Joe Frazier

https://twitter.com/TheFlipGordon/status/1067623171522813954

Am I the only one that wants a grinch gimmick with these two?

•Closing Commentary

Above I attached a tweet about the match between Jonathan Gresham and Zack Sabre Jr. I have some thoughts on this “dream match.”

Full disclosure, I am not a fan of technical wrestling. If I was, I would be following college wrestling and olympic Greco-Roman wrestling more closely. My Twitter handle is listed below; feel free to let me know how wrong I am.

What is my problem with technical wrestling? To me it is disingenuous and sometimes disrespectful to the fans and other performers. I am sure most people who read that last sentence will think I am some uncultured wrestling fan. Isn’t that a problem? Isn’t that like judging someone’s taste in music or movies in a negative fashion, simply because they do not align with yours? I feel the same about types of wrestling.

I have a very strong opinion about the gatekeeping culture in the IWC. This forum is not the place to lay out all my thoughts on the matter. Overall, I think all wrestling should be celebrated, and if you do not like a certain type of wrestling or a specific wrestler, that’s cool. But, it is never right to attack someone for what they find entertaining. Also, why not try to discuss ways to make the thing you don’t like better? Two weeks ago I discussed how I am currently not feeling The Kingdom. But, Instead of being like, “Get this trash off my TV,” I offered ways that the group could be taken to make them more interesting. As a result, I am looking at the group with a renewed opinion and open mind as a result.

Tyler has been a wrestling fan for 20 years (a handful of years he was a lapsed fan – 2003-’08, mainly), He’s from Columbus, Ohio. Check him out on Twitter @ringoftyler and check out his podcast @tandbwrestling.
