My Thoughts: A tale of two Kennys in ROH? (ROH Supercard of Honor collum)

Before you get mad at me, this contain spoilers from ROH Supercard of Honor. So if you haven't watch ROH Supercard of Honor, I highly recommend you do. This is a warning to you.

I know the title says it all, yes, this is my thoughts on what happened between two matches. Kenny Kings vs. Silas Young in a Last Man Standing match for the ROH World TV Title and Kenny Omega vs. Cody Rhodes, which it was supposed to be who is leading the Bullet Club, but, there might be something else going on, which I will get into. But, let's go over what happened with the ROH World TV Title and why there will be a huge feud that would be happen that Silas Young will regret messing with Kenny King.

If you did not know, last night's match between Kenny King and Silas Young ending was kinda child's play, you were right. You can thank Young's partner in crime, Beer City Bruiser for that one, but, Kenny King is not alone. After the match ended because of Bruiser's antics, the two men attack Kenny King, but, thankfully, Austin Aries, who by the way is a freelancer and has many belts, including the Impact Wrestling Heavyweight title, which this is Aries second run with the belt for those who are keeping track of how many runs he has, but, let's get back to the matter. So, yes, Aries save King from Young and Bruiser. Young and Bruiser are probably are thinking that those two won't work together, which apparently, they are wrong. You see if you go through the ROH YouTube channel and find videos of All Night Express or ANX between 2009 and 2011, you will see Kenny King along with Rhett Titus and Austin Aries. Aries was managing the guys and sure enough they have a bond.

So, Silas Young is kinda in trouble, because Aries and King aren't two guys who know each other, they have work with each other. Kenny King and Austin Aries are two high flyers, but, Aries is a heavyweighter too, because he has been the ROH World Champion two times and he is in his second title run as the heavyweight champion in Impact Wrestling. If these two were face each other at the next ROH PPV, I see Kenny King and Austin Aries dominate the match to a victory. I know that this whole feud started when Kenny King beat Silas Young for the ROH World TV title and with Aries into play, which at first, I thought he wanted to wrestle against Kenny King for the ROH World TV Title, but, since Silas Young has to use his rematch clause and to cheat with Beer City Bruiser, this is going to be an ugly one.

In fact this is the lowest point in Silas Young's wrestling career. Using antics and Beer City Bruiser should question Silas Young's moniker, "Last Real Man", because if he is, Austin Aries is "The Greatest Man That Ever Lived" and better then Silas Young. I know Aries has been referring himself at House of Hardcore as "The Truth", but, Aries needs to use his moniker, "The Greatest Man That Ever Lived", in Ring of Honor, against "Last Real Man" Silas Young. Kenny King will also go after Silas Young, but, this is going to be ugly, because Beer City Bruiser is in it.


Now, let's look at the other tale. How the heck did this happened? Cody Rhodes beats Kenny Omega and why I felt something was amiss. This whole entire situation started on Being The Elite, the YouTube Show, originally starting The Elite, Kenny Omega, Nick Jackson, and Matt Jackson, but has expand to including Marty Scurll, Cody and Brandi Rhodes, Adam Page, and Flip Gordon. However, in the last few episodes or so, Kota Ibushi has been added to the cast as part of a huge storyline, which Cody has problems with Kenny being the leader of the Bullet Club and also having problems with Kota too. The only thing is what happened at New Japan The New Beginning in Sapporo Night 2, which Cody acting so hasty towards the Young Bucks and attacking Kenny Omega, which Kota saves Kenny from another attack, which it is from episode 90 of Being The Elite. The question from that episode has fans were wondering was from the ending, what happened that night after Kota saved Kenny. What happened in room 710? There was no explanation so far, except, what happened. Kenny and Kota met up with Nick and Matt. Hopefully a plan that the guys were doing in order to get rid of Cody and Brandi.

However, what has been going on with Cody? If you don't know, Cody being a blonde is giving me bad vibes, like he is mirroring of his late father, Dusty Rhodes, who has been wearing suits and fur coats during his days prior to being in WWE. Cody however has been out of WWE for the last two years, finding success with New Japan and Ring of Honor and as for Brandi, She has been working hard too, since I want to add that she will be traveling back to Japan as a wrestler, not accompanying her husband in New Japan, but she will be competing with Stardom. I am not sure if this will play out on Being The Elite, but, I want to add that information in. I know that there are wrestling fans are livid at Brandi kissing Kenny at Ring of Honor 16th Anniversary Show, but, I am not. In fact, this is the second time Kenny has been kissed by either gender in his wrestling career. His first? He and Kota kiss in a DDT Pro show. But, understand that this is a storyline. I am kinda jealous that Kota and Brandi kiss Kenny, but, that was just part of  two storylines in two separate years.

Okay, that is not what is going on here. Cody really wanted to be the leader of the Bullet Club, but, I don't think this power struggle is not over yet. A lot of other wrestling news sites will say that it is, but, to be honest, if there is real leadership, the Young Bucks and heck, Bad Luck Fale, are the leaders in Bullet Club. After all, Fale was brought in by Fergal Devitt before Nick and Matt Jackson were and Nick and Matt Jackson are in fact the ones who prevented Cody changing the Bullet Club logo, which it became Cody's new tee that is available on his Pro Wrestling Tees store.

But, what about Kenny? Kenny is the leader still? I don't know. Since last night was really bad, I am still sorting this out. In fact the ones who are the real losers were the wrestling fans. I felt there was something amiss to be honest. I felt that Kenny Omega has not fully recover, since he and Kota Ibushi battled against The Young Bucks for the New Japan Strong Style Evolved show in California, but, neither was Cody Rhodes. I like both men, but having their match during Wrestlemania weekend was much of a mistake, but, then again, I don't think the fans are not going to see the last of Cody vs. Kenny. This whole thing started in New Japan and it should be taking place in New Japan, not Ring of Honor. If all means necessary, this should fall on Dominion, Power Struggle, or wait until Wrestle Kingdom 13 to make it a headliner for both men, even though it will be Kenny's third time being a headliner for Wrestle Kingdom, since the last two were from this past year and last year, which he wrestled against Kazuchika Okada at Wrestle Kingdom 11 for the IWGP Heavyweight Title and Chris Jericho at Wrestle Kingdom 12 to figure out who is the better wrestler from Winnipeg and it was for the IWGP United States Title.

For what happened last night, Kenny Omega vs. Cody Rhodes, I felt something was missing. Maybe there should been a championship on the line. Cody was not the ROH World Champion, because he lost the title to Dalton Castle. Kenny was not the IWPG United States Champion, because he lost the title to Jay White. There were some factors that happened last night were played into it that makes me wonder if I was really watching an Ring of Honor match. First off, Cody should not came out with Brandi, a person in a bear suit, and security, which it was a distraction. I don't know why Brandi keep interfering, which I did not know why the referee hasn't ejected her out of the match. I don't get why Matt and Nick came out and tried to go after Cody. With Brandi being hurt, Kenny being hurt, Nick and Matt on a guilt trip, Flip Gordon who help Brandi, and with Cody being victorious, I don't see this battle ending anytime soon. They will be going at it again, but, I feel it should be in a New Japan show, however, they may go at it again at the All-in show that Cody wanted to do, with The Young Bucks, Kenny Omega, Adam Page, Marty Scurll, and yes, even TV Actor and semi-wrestler, Stephen Amell are involved. If an All-in show funded by the most of the members of the Bullet Club, then let's see if one of their matches is those two going at it again.
