Their storyline centers around some fairly simple premises, mainly these 2:

1) 2 guys just don't like each other for some simple reason or
2) 2 guys fighting over a title (or 4 for tag teams)

It's amazing what you can do if you keep it simple.
You like actual wrestling, right away you have to understand that makes you a minority. Nationally speaking ROH and what it caters to is a niche audience and they realize it.

There's a reason some of the biggest draws this country has ever seen couldn't work at all or were marginal type workers. They didn't draw because they could work...
