[quote name='xilly']Good promo, but there's one little bitty tiny incie woo woo of a problem:
Having Maria with him, proves how much of a non-star he is. Her face is still instantly recognizable to anyone who's watched the E in the past 5 years. In fact, putting her with anyone almost assures that person to be known as "that guy with Maria".
It's also very funny to hear them dismiss The Rock as "what's his name again? I don't pay any attention.", considering one the two has actually worked with him. She's got rights to disregard him, while he's likely never even been in the same city with the guy, except maybe on the other side of the barricade.
Maybe shit like this is why I can't take Ring of Honor seriously. Constant potshots at the WWE is TNA's gimmick. ECW worked best when they did their own thing and stopped bringing up the WWE every 10 seconds, and it got them that awesome exposure of having Rob Van Dam do cross promotional work.
Knocking Rock for being an actor now, that's fine.. it's been Cena's gimmick for the past year.. but to act like you suddenly forgot the name of one of the biggest wrestling icons of our generation? C'mon man, that doesn't make you look like a heel, that makes you look like you don't know anything about wrestling history. That's like dismissing Bret Hart, Shawn Michaels, or Stone Cold Steve Austin (cause he's an actor too!).

That's not an ROH-wide thing, it's pretty much just Bennett. Don't let one guy's promos turn you off to the entire product.
