Get down or lay down: WWE running NXT shows to compete with ROH? :lupe:

[Vinny Lupton]

ROH follows WWE around every year for Mania weekend. WWE got something for dem midgets. In February, ROH announced 4/30 in Warwick, RI. This week, WWE announced 4/22 NXT in Kingston, RI. Coincidence?

04/30/16 CONQUEST TOUR - West Warwick, RI | ROH Wrestling
NXT debuts in Rhode Island this April
My philosophy in business is "help yourself, don't hurt the other guy"

Last time they did this. They did takeover Brooklyn when ROH did Field Of Honor. And Field Of Honor still killed it so



Isn't this the story from monthes ago where Meltzer said ROH won't see whats coming next. Then nobody mentioned it again lol

I dont think Vince wants Sinclair broadcasting to open their checkbook to ROH. That can get ugly real quick. Its best he just leave them be.

I've been saying for 6 months, WWE is gonna take ROH out with the help of Evolve, and Evolve is gonna be installed as the #1 indie even though they're getting money from Vince. Just like ECW. ROH wants it one way but it's the other way

Money too long and the fans too loyal, you must think this TNA or something

They just recently were able to properly light the damn shows

Sinclair isnt spending money on them like that

They were always able to do it. Just didn't feel it was necessary, shyt was never an issue to me

Vince dont want competition. He proved hes pretty bytchmade when he gets some. The stories of how he "conquered" wrestling are exaggerated.

I rock with Cokeboy but I really hope ROH gives them a little competition so WWE stops being unwatchable

Word on the street (Reddit) is they're adding one in Lowell, MA choices. The one in RI goes on sale Friday though

I just rewatched that Breaking Kayfabe with Jim Cornette last week with him talking about his stint in ROH

Does those little fakkits Ross Abrams and Greg the Office Boy still have jobs there?

Thats the thing, ROH would not appeal much to the casual (idiot) fans. Their complaints would range from, "these guys are too small" to " the matches are too long". I enjoy ROH and love them for sticking to their roots while improving all aspects but it is a hard sell unless you go to see the shows live.

Lowell, ma and Kingston, ri are both an hour 45 minutes from me but who gonna be on these shows? I'm not driving two hours to see the hype bros vs the vaudevillains as a main event
