JB still calling it Impact Wrestling and only mention of GFW is talking about the titles. JB and Josh still cant get physical with one another or they are fired, Pope to for some reason.

Dutt win but Konley had a decent showing. Trevor Lee attacked Sonjay after the match and stole X Division title.

Edwards pinned Mario Bocara for the win. Joseph Park is out now to congratulate Grado but also has a paper that he showed Grado and Grado doesn't seem happy about it. They are leaving together, not sure whats going in there.

Desmond Xavier won a decent match, was much better than I thought it would be. Xavier is very talented in the ring.

Who does NOAH even have now, besides Marufuji and Ishimori, that would make a partnership beneficial to GFW.

I think GFW had the relationship before the Anthem buy out, so it probably made sense for them then. may as well honor the deal and hope to use any talent they do sign while giving their talent more dates.

So...Alberto joins LAX because Mexicans?
Lashley is still a charisma vacuum. Konnan looks rough. |

I still hate the name of the belt, but I'm fine with Moose beating Marufuji and then EC3 starting a feud with Marufuji. Could be good stuff.

New Japan/GFW would be the best relationship they could strike up, but that would probably jeopardize the GFW/AAA one. That being said, one with CMLL would probably be better anyway. They could maintain the one with Konnan and CRASH.

They really need to try and get themselves back on Spike. I think I read something about Spike not being interested, but maybe the branding change can re-open discussions. Just please, please, please keep Vince Russo away from things.
Who is doing commentary on the shows now? Sounds like it's back to Borash, Matthews & Pope. Get rid of Matthews & Pope and have Dutch join commentary. As the booker, he knows the direction things need to go, and the guy is a damn master on the mic. Borash & Mantel would do a great job at the booth, methinks. Have Matthews & Pope work as managers. Or just let them go. Whichever. |

ROH works with both CMLL and NJPW. Dont see them droping ROH for GFW Impact. I wonder though if all the working agreements that GFWhad around the world still exists, which one of those was NJPW.

Not sure how they are going to work out the titles once they create new ones. The main titles have already been unified but still have the X Division, Impact Grand, and GFW NEX GEN Championships. Cody is the NEX GEN Champion and he's probably going to sign with ROH if he hasn't already. I also hope they scrap the round bull shit, Corgan did a great job in Impact but that is the worst thing he introduced.

What is that ROH relationship really worth to them though? Sinclair has a lot of money, but how much do they really pump in? ROH feels really...cold as a product. And I don't see ROH buckling the relationship if New Japan decided to branch out to GFW as well. It feels like ROH is the "little spoon" in it. The ROH product does feel more stylistically compatible with what New Japan puts forward though.

The rounds are dumb. I'm aware that New Japan have run ROH Title matches, but usually aren't they fairly cold parts of the show? I think Elgin is signed to New Japan first and foremost, but it's a good point about War Machine. I wonder how hard ROH contracts are to get out of though? I could see New Japan making a coup and taking a bunch of ROH guys who are only in the ROH thing for the New Japan prospects.

El Patron doesn't seem to be that receptive of gaining membership. Says he's a leader not a follower.

ACH won with a brain buster. Good showing for ACH. Never really been a fan of his when he was in ROH. Kind of like Cedric Alexander as once they leave ROH they dont seem as generic.

This makes me sad. Selfishly, I mean. Good for her. I'd like to see her signed to a WWE contract. I think it would create a relative stir in today's scene.
