Did you watch the Ring of Honor premier over the weekend? I did. It was a good show, I look forward to more, but unfortunately the production was not great.

First off the two matches were first rate. I’ve never been disappointed with Ring of Honor when it comes to in ring action. The World Greatest Tag Team vs. The Kings of Wrestling, just Wow.

But the over all production of the show was poor. I wasn’t expecting WWE quality production, but I was hoping for at least ROH on HDnet quality. This premier episode had a very low budget feel.

Adding Nigel McGuinness to color was a great idea, but (at least on my end) I could hardly hear him, his mix was way lower than Kevin Kelly’s. McGuinness was just about at the same audio level as the crowd.

I’ve got my DVR set for the next show. I’m sure they’ll improve the production quality as time goes on.

Welcome back to TV Ring of Honor!

After this latest episode of WWE NXT, I’ve decided it is now my favorite wrestling show. It’s got a unique concept, I’m enjoying the matches, I actually care about the rookies, the WWE pros are being shown in an all new light, and this is the best Michale Cole has ever been.

I tried watching TNA Impact’s new Monday show. I’ll just say it’s a good thing I had it DVR’d. No, not because it was must see, but so I could fast forward through the crap and get to the good wrestling. Last Monday’s show last a whole 15 minutes for me.

If I’d have to rank the other shows on right now I’d put Ring of Honor on HDnet 2nd (You should be watching this!), Raw/Smackdown 3rd (tied, like them both), and Superstars 4th (only because I don’t see it that often).

I found the new Ring of Honor iPhone App very easy to use and read. It’s your basic news headlines kind of application. The only minor thing I’m not liking is the video sections links to YouTube’s web site instead of just launching the videos directly. Over all its a great way to keep up with Ring of Honor on the go. If you have an iPhone, go ahead and get this app, its free.
