Made by the Midwest crew, I think they look really good. Hints of the old WCW TV title belt. They're also getting new World and TV title belts.

Already? Didn't they get new belts a few years ago?
And they are nice.

Yeah, but Neal Snow, yeah I called him out, has been caught up in a pretty big bootlegging scam in the belt world. Ripping off others work, and making belts with their designs.
Someone ratted him out and now it's a big mess. I guess ROH didn't want any of that and went with the most reputable, and best, in the business. IMO.
Can't go wrong with a Reggie or Dave made belt designed by Rico Mann. No worries of anyone saying anything, except that belt looks sweet.

That seems to be the opinion of most nowadays, which makes me wonder why spend the money on new belts and not your wrestling. TV wise or talent wise. Belts don't make a promotion, the talent does. So, it was kind of odd to me.
But, they have some names...I think Corino is one of the tag champs.

Corino should not even be wrestling in ROH, let along a champion. See, I don't even know what's going on but I do know it's utter ish.

That sucks. There was a time, and not too long ago, that ROH was better than the "big two" (sounds weird including TNA in that, but there's not much left).
Cornette still there? And if so, what's he doing wrong?

No idea, but I think they're trying to cater to a television market. It's been like this since they had that HDNet show. Just been getting worse since because they haven't replenished their talent pool after loosing all their best guys,.

They've been having major issues with their internet PPVs too.

I've never tried to buy a PPV of theirs, but people I know said don't bother, it'll probably screw up and be free anyway. Said it happens every time.

It happened again this past weekend. Will be a topic in segment 3 on the show tomorrow.

I'm glad I missed that last show. Those belts are really great though.

The only way I'd go to Final Battle is if Valdo can get us in for free through Nana. Otherwise, I just can't see spending money on that company again after the last show AND having a 2 PM start time ON SUNDAY!
Man, I haven't missed a Final Battle since seeing my first one in 2006, and now I'm planning on voluntarily missing the show on purpose.
Only good thing I read about this past weekend was ROH bringing back The Irish Airbourne, a team they never should have let go to begin with. C'mon, who doesn't want to see the Young Bucks vs the IA?!

That is a dream tag match right there! Kinda wish they kept Future Shock together and never let go of Dark City Fight Club (aka Black Demolition).
