Yes he is on Impact where he and his wife Angelina Love are feuding with Eddie Edwards and his wife He beat Lio Rush for the title Thanks. I had totally forgotten about his family feud against Eddie Edwards. Didn't know that Lio Rush was CZW champ though. I thought it might have been Matt Tremont for some reason. Lio Rush won the title from Joe Gacy only two weeks ago. I believe that was on Sami's first night with the book. So Callihan has been in charge two weeks and he's already had two title changes. Can't say I care for that but Richards is much better to have on top than Rush.

I always look forward to a new episode of All-Star Wrestling! Highlights for me: JJ Dillon getting the dirty pin on Chaz Taylor. Tommy Rich giving DiBiase's money to the studio audience. While I'm not a huge fan of Lucha Underground, I look forward to see what you have planned. Heenan guard-dogging the Giant's food from Bill Apter as well as Bill's courageous interview with Brody. You have 80s vignettes down to an art my friend! WrestleCade is gearing up to be a great one this year!

Pariah - Capturing the voices of some of the ROH talent is definitely easier when it's guys like Fish and Taven. They are a lot of fun to do. TTX - I liked Castle beating Sabin as well and it would be nice for him to get into title contention. Unfortunately, until he gets an update, I think he'll be stuck in the spoiler role for now. bookerbill - Broken bodies are on the menu of the next ppv for sure. And that's how I like it. cruefan68 - Thanks for the congrats Crue and I extend the same to you! Vegas - Thank you as well Vegas! I appreciate everyone who reads and comments. I think people who follow my feds have to be a little invested in them because of how much detail I use. It makes the effort worth while when I get such great feedback. Thanks to all of you!
RING OF HONOR TELEVISION
2016 Season Episode 27 The show opening with fan favorite Cheeseburger coming out for the first match. His opponent, Jay Lethal, made his entrance next. Lethal sneered at the crowd as he took his time getting into the ring. Before Bobby Cruise could make the introductions, ROH live host Stokely Hathaway hurried down to the ring. His co-host, Veda Scott, slowly, almost reluctantly, followed him down the aisle. Stokely apologized for the interruption, explaining that he just wanted to get a quick word with Lethal about the state of affairs within Affluence. Lethal looked perturbed. “Jay, let us know how you feel about Adam Cole being the new ROH World Champion and inviting Matt Taven to join the group.”Lethal just glared at Hathaway. “Come on, Jay,” Stokely continued. “Veda, maybe he’ll listen to you. Veda…?” Stokely turned to see Veda standing in the corner. He approached her with a puzzled expression. As he took another step in her direction, Veda held a hand up, not wanting him to get any closer. “What’s wrong?” Stokely asked. “What’s going on?”Veda just looked at him. “Why have you been acting weird lately?”Veda cautiously extended a hand, indicating she wanted the microphone. Hathaway handed it to her. “You know, I wasn’t going to say anything. Especially on TV. But I can’t keep it quiet any longer.”“What are you talking about?” he replied. “Don’t play dumb. You know what I’m talking about. That night in Vegas, after the pay-per-view. Your conduct towards me was completely… unprofessional. And I can’t ignore it any longer. I’m going to be talking to the human resources department at Sinclair Broadcasting. You can’t do what you did and not answer for it.”The crowd was in WTF mode and so was Stokely. Veda started to step through the ropes and Hathaway reached out and grabbed her wrist, seeking answers. Veda shrieked and Cheeseburger leaped to her aid, pulling Stokely away. Hathaway was bewildered. Lethal apparently had had enough of the proceedings and jumped Cheeseburger from behind. Stokely scrambled to get out of the way as the ref called for the bell to start the match. Jay Lethal def. Cheeseburger by submission Cheeseburger recovered quickly from the ambush by Lethal. He jumped on Lethal’s back, applying a cobra clutch, and Jay had trouble shaking him off. With the fans behind him, Cheeseburger had a streak of kinetic offense until Lethal cut him off and mopped the mat with him. Jay forced a submission from Burger with a Koji Clutch. Rhett Titus def. Kyle O'Reilly by pin The ANX/reDRagon rivalry continued with this singles match. Rhett got off to a fast start as Kyle was uncharacteristically off his game. However, once O’Reilly found his groove, Rhett was fending off a relentless string of submission attempts. Titus found ways to escape Armageddon while Kyle kicked out of multiple near falls. It was a Muff Driver by Titus that put this one in the win column for him. ROH Update with Stokely Hathaway“With All Star Extravaganza only one week away, we still have two more huge announcements to make! Matt Sydal returns from his tour of Japan and he’s bringing with him the man he’s been locked in fierce competition with - “The Cleaner” Kenny Omega. That’s right, you heard correct! Kenny Omega is coming to Ring of Honor! There will also be a big 16 man Honor Rumble that will determine who ROH World Champion Adam Cole will make his first title defense against later that night. I tell you fans, All Star Extravaganza is going to be big! Honor Rumble! Kenny Omega! Ladder War 6! How will you forgive yourself if you miss it?” The Young Bucks, Matt and Nick Jackson, come to the ring to a mixed reaction from the crowd. After reminding the fans to buy their t-shirts at the merch table, the Bucks earn some heat by running down the Briscoe Brothers. They claim that the Briscoes one-sided win over them at Death Before Dishonor should not count because both Matt and Nick had the flu that night and were wrestling with 102 degree temperatures. No one was buying it, especially the Briscoes who came out to a huge reception. “How’s your temperature now. Boys?” Jay asked. “Still a bit feverish actually,” a nervous Matt replied. Jay and Mark had heard enough and rushed the ring. We had our main event match. Jay & Mark Briscoe def. The Young Bucks by pin TThe two teams exchanged a flurry of strikes. Once the referee was able to get order, it was Jay starting out against Matt. Briscoe wasted no time hitting a Jay Driller. Matt kicked out and Jay tagged in Mark. Matt tried to escape to his corner to tag his brother but Mark lit him up with some Redneck Kung Fu. It wasn’t long before the Briscoes had Matt up for the Doomsday Device. Another dominating win by the Briscoes. Commentator Kevin Kelly closed the show commenting that the Briscoes look to be on a collision course for the tag team gold against whoever wins Ladder War next week.

Thought for sure 2I&B were going to win those tag titles. But The Tribe are as tough as they come.
The main event featured two of my favorites in Pearce and Donst. I like Pearce as a good champion to chase but the win by Donst was cool.
I'm really liking the match-ups you are doing with the CWFH/AIW cards. Makes for some unique and interesting contests.

I for one am still getting used to your new format but it definitely has a nice flow to it. I'm just suffering a little bit of culture shock I guess. The formats you and bookerbill used were what I most modeled my feds after. Now you've both changed it up. Soon they will be the new standards. Good job!

I've been giving WGV a few episodes to percolate before commenting.
Your new effort has all of the action and chaos we expect from a Pariah fed.
I like the idea a introducing new talent in order of their original release. I take it some will also be rotated out as you go?
Good stuff as always. Keep it up!

I don't think they were ever posted. I remember one set went without. Think it was this one.

I know Beyond doesn't have titles. I've read that they have a points system. Does anybody have a handle on how they work that? I watch Beyond semi-regularly and have never heard of a points system. They have the annual Tournament For Tomorrow with the winner being refered to as the "ace" of Beyond. But even that doesnt seem official.

Pariah , TTX - The War Machine DQ was a good way for Affluence to win and get some heat. Thanks for reading and commenting, guys! And thanks and congrats to you as well, Pariah. I was expecting you to win a vote at some point but two at once? When it rains it pours.
RING OF HONOR TELEVISION
2016 Season Episode 26 Dalton Castle def. Chris Sabin w/Truth Martini by pin During introductions, the usually skeevy Martini had the tables turned on him as Dalton went out of his way to make Truth feel uncomfortable. Castle got early near falls with a sunset flip off of the ropes and a couple of Deadlift German Suplexes. A spin-out facebuster and a third Deadlift German Suplex urged Truth into action, distracting the referee. Castle stayed focus and struck with yet another Deadlift German Suplex. Martini yanked the ref out of the ring by the ankle, getting a firm warning from the angry official. Nothing Sabin tried could get him on track and Castle took the fall with a final Deadlift German Suplex in what had to be considered an upset against the former world champion. Stokely Hathaway and Veda Scott are joined in the ring by Bobby Fish & Kyle O’Reilly - reDRagon. As Fish and O’Reilly verbally jousted with members of the audience, Stokely tried to get the sullen Veda to participate in the segment. Veda stayed planted in place, tight-lipped. Hathaway seemed to be trying to figure out what Veda’s problem was. With a sudden turn, she urgently left the ring, as a confused Stokely watched her leave. Fish grabbed the mic. “Big Stoke, why don’t you go find out what’s wrong with your girlfriend. Kyle and I can handle this.” Hathaway hesitated, then followed after his interview partner. “All Night Express, I don’t know what you did to piss off Nigel McGuinness but it seems like he’s as sick of you guys as we are. I mean, putting you in a Ladder War with Kyle and I? He signed your death warrant, boys.” Kenny King & Rhett Titus, the new ROH Tag Team Champions, appeared through the curtain. Fish continued: “You may have won those tag team titles from us at Death Before Dishonor but I think we all know what a fluke that was.”The crowd boos and ANX fire back but the audio doesn’t pick it up. “At All Star Extravaganza, we’ll be taking back those belts. But you two might not make it there to defend them. Rhett, next week Kyle is going to take your arm home with him. And tonight, Kenny, I’m going to rip one of your boots off… with your foot still in it!”ANX approached ringside and the ref cleared O’Reilly from the ring as Fish was set to wrestle King. Rhett and Kyle were then instructed to go to the back. Bobby Fish def. Kenny King by DQ King came out punching and kicking. Fish was on his heels for a while until he clocked Kenny with a Sleeps With The Fishes kick to the head. Fish took King to the floor but it was Kenny who was disqualified when he pulled a ladder from under the ring and gave Bobby a spinebuster onto it. King didn’t seem to mind the result and told Bobby to “get ready” for more of the same at Ladder War. ROH Update with Stokely Hathaway“Greetings ROH fans. Ladder War 6 won’t be the only title rematch taking place at All Star Extravaganza. New ROH World Television Champion Donovan Dijak has agreed to give former champion BJ Whitmer a rematch at our next pay-per-view event. But, according to Dijak’s manager, Truth Martini, it will be under one condition: it will be contested as a Boston Street Fight! With Dijak being a native of the Boston area, and since the event takes place close by, it only seems appropriate that the feud between these two be settled this way. Whitmer has accepted the challenge, so be sure to purchase All Star Extravaganza from your PPV provider. It happens in just two weeks!” Jay & Mark Briscoe def. The Addiction by pin The newest member of Affluence, Matt Taven, joined Kevin Kelly and Steve Corino on commentary. Steve asked Matt about Daniels having a problem with him joining Affluence. Taven said that there would be an adjustment period and everyone would soon be on the same page. Corino then apologized for having to ask if Taven was in cahoots with his old manager Truth Martini. Matt laughed it off. Christopher Daniels kept a wary eye on Taven and Kevin suggested that maybe Matt was a distraction for his stablemates. Taven said that Daniels and Kazarian “...should have no problem beating these chicken farming Melvins.”With Daniels’ attention divided, Mark got the jump on him and went for a pin after a Saito Suplex. Jay tagged in and gave Chris a Death Valley Driver on the apron, almost getting a count out. A Jay Driller had Daniels in trouble and Kazarian came in for the save, drawing Mark in as well. The two sides brawled as the ref struggled to regain control. Mark missed a plunge from the top rope and Daniels was able to tag out. Kaz did not fare much better as Mark worked him over, requiring a save by Daniels. Jay took over and continued the beatdown, finishing Kaz with a Jay Driller. As Daniels helped Kaz up from the canvas, he glared at Taven. “Wow, that didn’t go so well,” was Taven’s remark to the commentary team. “I mean, that kinda makes Affluence look bad, doesn’t it?”Kevin Kelly signed off as Steve Corino considered Taven’s comment.
