ROH WJCT Colony No.1 - Part 2: Grudge Crunch


Well folks, it's about that time (it's a stolen phrase from Classic Man D on YouTube). It's time to talk about ROH WJCT Colony No.1 - Part 2: Grudge Crunch. Let's roll with it. 


March 12, 2026:

Athena [C] vs Maya World (10:00) → ROH Women's World Championship Proving Ground Match - ★★★3/4


This was a good way to kick off the show. Athena and Maya World are some of the best world and shows it. Honestly, I do like the fact that they hyped it up as a big deal. Especially since Maya World has failed to take down Athena in the previous Proving Ground that these two had. This match will happen every soon and it will probably be as good as this one here. (And that I am making these written works into these blogs, I can tell you right now, it was really fantastic.)

Red Velvet (c) vs Hyan (5:12) → ROH Women's World Television Championship Match - ★★★


This match was strange from a booking standpoint. Or I should say the structure and match time. Given that it was good for what it was, I find it baffling that it is only 5 minutes. Given that matches benefits from being longer bouts than the ones being taped after AEW Dynamite and Collision, I find it weird about this one in particular. Fun match, but more time was needed. 


Shane Taylor Promotions (Shane Taylor, Shawn Dean & Carlie Bravo) [C] vs QT Marshall, Aaron Solo & Nick Comoroto (10:48) → ROH World Six-Man Tag Team Championship Match - ★★★1/4


I didn't like the fact that the Proving Ground stipulation was completely ignored. This was past the 10 minutes which meant that Marshall, Solo & Comoroto should have gotten a title opportunity for those Six-Man Tag Team Titles. But again, this comes down to the booking and it was very lazy here. This match really dragged towards the end even though it was start to get good. Poor match structure and very poor piece of booking.

La Faccion Ingobernable (Sammy Guevara & The Beast Mortos) (c) vs The Colons (Eddie Colon & Orlando Colon) (8:49) → ROH World Tag Team Championship Match - ★★★1/2


This was actually loads of fun. The reception for The Colons were more more negative given that they are former WWE Tag Team Champions from the 2010s, but that doesn't mean that they are scrubs because of that. The Colons were really fun at the offence and defense of this match. This also really did a good job in contrast to Sammy Guevara and The Beast Mortos' current formula for tag team title matches despite the crowd feeling more dead than the vibe I bring to parties. Given the crowd were there for hours, I can't blame them. A really fun title defense and a good way to bounce back from that mess of a Proving Ground. 

Premier Athletes (Tony Nese, Ariya Daivari & Stori Denali) vs Mark Davidson, Parker Li & Angelica Risk (2:30) - N/R (I don't rate bouts under 5 minutes)


Obviously this was for the sake of Stori Denali's development which needs to the priority. This was short, sweet and straight to the point. 

Scorpio Sky vs Bryan Keith (9:36) - ★★★1/2


The funny thing is that I was busy during this match and I completely forgot about most of it when I resumed the bout. So that was fun, I guess. This match was really fun as both actually did well especially in the closing stretch. Scorpio Sky won and I do like that SkyFlight are being positioned as the Protectors of ROH much like Bandido. 

Lee Moriarty (c) vs Josh Woods (11:18) → ROH Pure Championship Match - ★★★★1/4


A really good match and a really good main event. One of the benefits of Ring Of Honor is that we get these long matches and since Tony Khan loves men's wrestling, this was an absolute treat to watch. I hope they don't do this match again since this is the second time these two have faced off against each other. I do hope that they build up Josh Woods or anyone for that matter to beat Lee Moriarty for the ROH Pure Title.


Post: This was an easy show to watch. Much like many comfort shows, this was an easy to watch as they are fun matches to watch, setting up future matches for future shows and establishing new things... that will be forgotten months later. So I hope you had a great and I love you guys respectfully and I'll see you next time.

Kind Regards,
ZERO (or Archer)

ZERO x Mihaawk: Tomoka Inaba - Exploring New Things

Image
The world of pro wrestling has a loads of sections to search through. Much like any long running sport or franchise, there are other sorts of niches within the niche itself. This is the same feeling I had when I discovered the world of 女子プロレス (Women's Pro Wrestling). This will probably shorter than the first installment of the blog. More of the fact that I don't intend to keep you for longer than the articles I did for SickosClub.com and that I'm tired as flagrant and illiterate dumbass. And there are new match descriptions that I have in the vault that I might release for the blog later on. My knowledge in the world of Japanese women's wrestling is... very underwhelming to be honest and it gets more underwhelming that I half-assed my commitment until now. I discovered STARDOM in 2022 when I saw highlights of two specific matches: Tam Nakano vs Giulia from Stardom 10th Anniversary ~Hinamatsuri All-Star Dream Cinderella~ and Utami Hayashishita vs. Syuri from Stardom Tok...

Cinderella Swansong

SOOOOOOOOOOO... I was actually planning do something that is WWE related, but I decided to stop it, track back and talk about STARDOM. I have talked about STARDOM multiples on SickosClub.com before particularly on Ema Maishima and Kikyo Furusawa in 4 published articles while I have another two pieces in my own archive to use just in case. However, this is 2nd time I'm talking about something that is related to STARDOM on this page. You know, my own haven of some sort. The last time I talked about something that it was related to World Wonder Ring Stardom was when I was making the Tomoka Inaba which is available now and currently the most viewed blog on my Field Journey page so far. Thank you for that anyway. And for that I am going to feature people alongside the wrestler's name I'm gonna ramble so you all can see my knowledge or lack thereof and you can follow them online if you want. Today, I'm going through every single participant in this Cinderella Tournament and ...

Saori Anou: Whom I Once Feared, Now I Follow

[ZERO X Mihaawk Production] I have written about many wrestlers in this series on my blog. Some were fun and some were a lot more unorthodox. Which is always the thing you'd come to expect from myself. But seriously, doing 13 matches for the Hazuki one was absolutely diabolical. Maybe I should have cut some of those bouts from that list.  Credit: Etsuo Hara Today is a blog focused on someone that I didn't think about surprisingly enough. Someone who have a mentioned multiple times in a way that is funny to re-explain. I decided to reach out to the usual partner of the blog, Mihaawk and I was provided with some premium content. Someone who once scared me to the point of having a nightmare about her. [I do implore you to read her section on the Cinderella Tournament blog to get the context.] And a woman who is great and elegant behind her motionless and psychotic stare. And her name... is Saori Anou. SAORI ANOU - ICE ASSASSIN DIFFICULTY Credit: Etsuo Hara Age: 35 Years Old  Pr...
