    Find it funny that Rachel goes by "Queen of Strong Smile" and fought against the most smiley person in RoH.

    And don't know what Lexy will do to prevent being dropped from Minion Training.

    This is a wild one. Imagine telling someone five years ago that’s where and how it would happen 😂

    Watched it and they just advertised it throughout the night. Clearly they knew filming in advance meant everyone would know so decided against trying to make it a surprise. They even showed footage of the same tag match the night before at Pro Wrestling Revolver. But it seemed to be a surprise on the night for those in attendance.

    I just hope this isn't how Athena loses the title.

    Athena & Bille bumped like legends for Ronda.

    Again showing Athena and her Minions Bille & Lexy are some of the best thing in wrestling right now.

    Jack Cartwheel is fun to watch.

    I would mot mind seeing him and Dante Martin go at it when Dante returns.

    Shitbata had to drop the belt and return to Japan for personal reasons.

    Hopefully everything will be ok for him as it has been amazing to see him back in the ring.

    The Mogul Embassy are now part of House of Torture.

    Gates of Agony aren't having the best Tag League debut however Lance Archer is having a good one with his partner Alex Zayne.

    Congratulations to Lexy and good to see her have Athena's back at the start.

    Funny seeing Leyla being able to show the height difference between her and her shorter opponent. Speaking of Leyla, since I mentioned it when she returned, I'll point out that she looks in better shape these days so fair play to her putting in the work.

    Final Battle is on the 15th so 2 more episodes between now and then to set up matches for it.

    2 matches so far are the RoH Women's title and the Television title

    The women have been killing it on ROH

    Lexy really has grown into her role are interviewer and character since she first arrived in AEW.

    Athena is one of best of all the former WWE pick ups Tony Khan signed a total MVP.

    Billie Starz has so much talent for an 18 year old that alone is just crazy that she is only 18.

    Maria Kanellis has been doing a fantastic job in her mentor/manager role.

    Marina Shafir is really improving her in ring ability.

    Never seen Athena in WWE but she really has been brilliant since she joined AEW.

    When Billie wins the title off her I really hope she becomes AEW Womens World Champion as she really deserves it for the fantastic work she has put in over the past year!

    Her promo taking shots at Eddies was wonderful!

    Final Battle looking like a good card I must say.

    One thing Tony Khan can do really well is book a PPV.

    Disappointing.

    I can understand why as it's more money for them but your reducing your audience not having it on FITE.

    Yuta pulling double duty?

    Liked how he abused the rules in this week's Pure match, making his opponent waste the rope breaks.

    Luckily it was taped last week so Athena has had a week to recover at least.

    Yeah, the reaction to the cartwheels by the fans and the commentators reacting to the cartwheel variations of moves were fun to hear as well.

    The whole preshow was pretty good.

    Was thinking they weren't gonna end the 6 man yeah like that so continuing without Honor was the right move.

    Good main event. Billie now a full minion?

    Athena has to be in the running for the wrestler of the year what a run she has had in 2023 elevating everybody around her and never having a bad match and the storyline of MIT has been brilliantly told over the last few months.

    Love the American Dragon never afriad to look at the lights and always ready to put someone over.

    The Canadian Destroyer off the ropes from the two big men was as impressive as Vikingo or Komander doing their crazy stuff.


    A 5 hoiur PPV including Zero Hour I think that is why it was exclusive to Honor Club.
