These pictures are actually over a week old at this point, but due to the shitty natures of internet going down at my house, as well as the eternal struggles of Induku, these are being a posted a little tardy. But anyway, I went up to Baltimore with some friends, and we went to go watch a Ring of Honor taping, which was actually four, hour-long programs worth of segments and matches that needed to be filmed.
It was a good time, as much like baseball, I prefer wrestling shows to be minor league sized, smaller and more niche. It was actually kind of amusing to me that all these wrestlers’ music themes would hit, and not just myself, but there were a good bit of people who had absolutely no idea of who was going to emerge from the curtains. Sometimes it would be a familiar face, like Matt Hardy or Steve Corino, but in the case of their regular wrestlers like Jimmy Jacobs or even their own World Champion, Kevin Steen, complete blanks for me.
I have to admit though, guys like Rhino and Shelton Benjamin don’t look a thing different from when they were last spotted in the WWE. Spoiler alert, apparently the one match we saw involving Charlie Haas and Shelton Benjamin taking on the Briscoe Brothers; Haas turned on Benjamin at the end, which immediately was confirmation of his being written out because, he was on his way back to the WWE.
But anyway, it was all about having time with my friends, and it certainly was a good time. Screaming shit like “LEX LUGER” and “EUROPEAN UPPERCUT” during quiet moments, as well as people watching and old Daniel Bryan.
