I know not everyone pays attention to ROH here, but for all the AEW people: This is one of those “you should/need to watch this” segments.
I like to keep ya’ll in the loop <3
It might be super important, and I might never have noticed it ever happened at all - that’s how AEW TV goes.
spoiler-y thoughts on segment
It felt like Dustin Rhodes was about to pull out a “When I lose, I’ll leave for good” promo for a moment there. Are Dark Order featured frequently on ROH these days? I kinda wish they were on AEW more. I heard that Sammy was going to be showing up, nice to see it happen, and that it’s (hopefully) not as part of The Learning Tree. Somehow both surprised and not surprised at all about the new hairstyle.
The DO have been RoH regulars for quite a while now. Both serving as heels and underdog babyfaces depending on what the situation/narrative calls for.
Like Neon said, pretty heavily for a while now yeah. Not always featured, they still do a chunk of dark matches, but the last 2 weeks Uno’s done this shirt-and-tie deal and acting off, which now we know why: heel turn. This will hopefully lead to DO being something again.
Sammy if I heard the rumours right, refused to come back as part of the Vortex™ cause it’s a dead-zone where he’ll just be doing the same shit as always. With this return being on ROH, Sammy will probably be sticking around for a decent while. Especially with them starting to do new things with ROH.
Thank Beelzebub almighty Sammy realized what a fucking drain The Learning Tree is, hopefully Tony keeps him far away from that.
Dark Order should be heel and maybe they don’t need a leader, but they need something, hopefully Uno is finally that something, I love that shit, I miss the Join the Dark Order stuff.
The ROH PPV was great, I like the aesthetic of ROH compared to AEW’s TNA look. It and DO won’t get me to buy Honor Club, but I’m more invested in their PPV’s going forward.
