It really does. Here's hoping the problem is fixed before the main event.

IPPV is a shit site. Honestly, ROH would be better off just taking the cost themselves and putting it up on their site.

When the WWN network of Evolve/DGUSA/FIP can do it relatively problem free, I don't get how ROH can be having such problems with it, they ought to have the superior funds and resources and whatnot.

Dear Fans, Again we are extremely frustrated by the ippv result tonight and offer our deepest apologies. Since Showdown in the Sun, we have been working endlessly to provide an optimal ppv experience which we believe we have achieved.. For our website, we increased our server memory x3 and doubled its processing power. Still, it seems that our architecture could not handle the excessive user logins and we are left with a great stream that our fans can not see. If a refund is demanded, it WILL be given. Otherwise we would like to offer full retention of the replay for Border Wars as well as FREE access to the Best in the World PPV on June 24th for anyone who ordered Border Wars tonight. This will also include retention of the Best in the World PPV in your myPPV accounts. We WILL get this right no matter what it takes in time for Best in the World.

Sucks about the iPPV. Really glad I went in person. Overall it was a very, very good show.

Eddie Edwards vs Rhino was a solid opener and the 6 man after it was tremendous fun, even if it started out a little sloppy. Lance Storm vs Mike Bennett was really good, I'd say better than their match WrestleMania weekend. A nice touch was that Jimmy Korderas ref'd their match. He got a big pop (really!) and Lance seemed like he was really glad to have him there. Lethal vs Ciampa was OK. Strong vs Finlay was fine, but felt really slow/boring compared to everything else. Elgin vs Cole was good for what it was - a showcase of Elgin's power. Tag Title match was hard to judge, as a lot of the action was on the outside and I couldn't see it from my seats. Finish felt like it came pretty quick, but I'm really, really glad they didn't kick out at the end.

Steen vs Richards was special. The crowd was crazy. It's funny, because 2 years ago Tyler Black wrestled Davey Richards in that very arena. On that night, Tyler could do nothing right in the eyes of the Toronto crowd. Tonight, it was Davey's turn to feel their displeasure. The finish was probably perfectly timed, but for a Davey Richards match felt early.

Really interested to see where they go now, since Davey lost pretty clean. Jimmy Jacobs never came into play, despite being at ringside the whole match. Steve Corino came out after the match and joined Steen and Jacobs.

Also, got the Danielson DVD for $15. And got to see Veda Scott in person. Should've tried to get my pic taken with her tho.
