Sorry about the initial title. It's been a long weekend.

[Knapik]

Briscoes, bab-ee! Makes me think they're losing the title tomorrow

[Subvert69]

Who can take that title off of Morishima? That's what I love about ROH...you never know when a title change is going to happen (with the exception of Homicide).

[Knapik]

Man who is going to take on The Briscoes now?! Who's going to man up?!

[JamieOD]

Who's going to stop Morishima? Unless Bryan, Claudio or Albright get another title shot I can't see anyone winning the title anytime soon.

[MikeMcKinney]

These sounded like awesome cards.....

[Knapik]

According to the PWInsider: WWE RAW creative head Brian Gerwirtz was in attendance at the Ring of Honor show in New York City over the weekend.

Hmmmm... who's next?

[Highway61Revisited]

They take AmDrag....we riot.

Wouldn't Albright, Castagnoli or BJ be the obvious choices?

I know there was the issue with Claudio in the past but maybe it got worked out? He seems like an almost perfect fit for the E.

Or Morishima as absolute killing machine

[Knapik]

I think Claudio and Nigel are great fits for the WWE.

[Wildfire]

I'd guess Claudio would be the best fit, but perhaps that had no one in mind... maybe just scouting?
