⭐️Kayhan: “Well I was kind of excited to see the continuation of JD Drake & Beef feuding with LFI. As the show opened I initially thought it was kind of cool that they opened with this. But where did Butcher come from? His inclusion in the team was random as hell. And this didn’t feel like this was a continuation of such a beatdown like last week. So I’ll give it credit for the booking and not give it a 👎. But it was lacking. For all the effort they’ve put into Beef and JD on ROH, this didn’t help them out at all. They could have shown some fire but instead they just lost.”

➡️COMMENTS⬅️

⭐️Kayhan: “Man Komander’s been getting a push. If you actually watch ROH, Collision and Rampage, you’d think this guy was pretty repectable. Ok. Well if you’re gonna make him out to be pretty good, why not get him into an angle on Dynamite?”
