Stuff...

Looking back at the week, here's somethings I want to say.

Allen Heinberg came out to speak about how the death of the Question in 52 was one reason he was disillusioned with comics right now. I find this a tad ironic since a lot of Wonder Woman fans were disillusioned with the character because DC put its faith in Heinberg. Me included. So when are we seeing the finale to the first arc? Do we even care anymore? I guess it just bugs me to see someone speak out against something while being completely ignorant of how they are doing something similar.

Austen Aries asked for his release from TNA wrestling. Aries was suspended in April for 90 days and since most TNA wrestlers are paid per show a lot work indy dates. With Ring of Honor, Aries second home, committing to PPV Aries along with others were pulled and prohibited to work ROH and two other popular feds in PWG and UWA-hardcore. Sure there are other indy promotions but very few on the level of ROH since most promotions are happy to break 100 people and may not be able to afford a bigger name wrestler. TNA has yet to allow Aries a release and have in the past refused to fire wrestlers who try to get fired to try and stop them from going tot he competition. What makes this frustrating is that Aries contract, which expires by the time his suspension ends, is designed in a way where TNA can keep him on board if they choose. In the big two(that's a stretch to say with TNA) morale issues aren't that big a deal.

ECW should just end. Sabu fired and RVD on his way out(if not already gone) they have no real drawing power. Let alone a sizable roster.

KENTA vs. Morishima in Japan for the Ring of Honor World Title. Its a short match, little over 10 minutes, and quite good. Definitely a shocker if you haven't seen wrestling other then the drivel on TV.

Here's the Match
