ROH: International Challenge

About This Movie

So, International Challenge, huh? It’s not your typical wrestling film, since it’s more of a live event capture than a scripted narrative. The atmosphere is electric, with a solid wrestling vibe that you really feel from the crowd. The pacing is intense, as you’d expect from a Ring of Honor event, with match after match that keeps you glued to your seat. Each performance showcases wrestlers with distinct styles and personas, which adds to the overall charm. There’s something about the raw energy of these events that feels so authentic, almost like a time capsule of that point in wrestling history. It’s fascinating just to see how these talents push each other in the ring. Plus, the Connecticut Expo Center is a unique backdrop, different from the usual arenas.

International Challenge is a unique entry in the wrestling collectible scene, as it's not exactly categorized like traditional films. The scarcity of physical media for this event makes it a point of interest for collectors who appreciate wrestling history. Most copies are found in obscure formats, and the limited release means it’s often overlooked, but it holds a certain charm for those who enjoy the rawness of live wrestling events. This one is definitely for those who appreciate the ebb and flow of independent wrestling culture.
