I liked it. It was nice seeing it in a mostly sport presentation, with only one real feud to roll with.

Kenny King has, and always been on of my faves. He's got a lot of the same tools physically as Shelton Benjamin, which damn sure ain't a bad thing. And Tyler Black's got a bright future in the business. All that talent and he's only TWENTY TWO YEARS OLD!!! Imagine how good he's gonna be 5 years down the road?

I like his skills, but I don't see much "main stage" star power in him. I was laughing at that promo he cut... that lisp is just absolutely horrible. I know that would be an initial drawback in both places, on top of size and all of that. His best case scenario would have a manager do his talking for him, but even then, that size=Intercontinental at best if he were to go WWE.
Kenny King was fucking awesome though, always love Jerry Lynn although I wish they had a better camera angle on teh TKO, since I think he executes it the best. Delirious is always a fun watch, even though he completely lost his balance at a very awkward part of that match. Liked that Sammy guy's submission, and Brent Albright... I really like his skills even if he looks like he has no personality. I remember his brief time in WWE too, and it's nice to see people busting out realistic submissions like that type of armbar for a finisher.

I think Black would actually need some sort of mainstream exposure for him to build on his mic skills, but yea...I agree with him being IC/US title material. All and all, it wasn't a bad 1st show. I definitely like the wall to wall format it has. More wrestling, less acting.

It was a decent first show, nothing really special. From what I Understand the first six weeks are suppose to be an introduction to Ring of Honor.

most of the matches are reruns from the PPVs and recorded matches from other TV/DVD releases. i noticed that after i actually watch it lol. but still good none the less something other then the soaps that have been mainstream for awhile now

May have gotten an early leak of the matches then, because Wrestlezone was posting the spoilers as they happened last month...
