It was what I have chosen.

That machine charging at me and I knew I will not step aside.

Yes, a fatal mistake I will never be allowed to forget.

But I did it for a friend.

Pictured above: On the left, the first poster that was used to promote ROH Final Battle back in late october. On the right, the current version of that poster about a month later. We're just under 20 days until the event and I can't help but wonder how many more faces are going to change on this graphic between now and then.

I must say that I have been more or less enjoying Ring of Honor since it was purchased by Tony Khan and folded into the AEW tent. It's pretty light on promos or storylines, which is not terrible, and results in a far higher quantity of just pretty dang good wrestling, not to mention, probably the best women's division that is being utilized by Mr. Khan & co.

The fact that ROH is actually pretty good is why I've been getting really pissed off with how they seem to treat it as the embarrassing step sibling to AEW. Over the past year, more and more frequently AEW has made incredibly liberal use of ROH belts for their own promotion, to the point of making them seem fairly worthless.

I loved the MJF/Adam Cole bromance as much as the next guy, and them winning the tag belts (at an AEW ppv) was a fine decision, and could have been a way to kind of elevate the status of the titles... if Adam Cole hadn't busted his ankle. Now they've been treating the ROH tag team championship like it's their property and have just refused to let them lose it because what, it would be unfair if Adam couldn't defend his title? So what's the answer? They just get to have their reign artificially extended indefinitely, meanwhile every tag team in ROH can just kind of fuck themselves?

Then it seemed almost as a follow-up to Better than you Bay Bay winning those titles, the Hung Bucks got to dethrone the Embassy for the trios belts (on an episode of AEW), which they held on to for just long enough to be included in the promotional art for Final Battle before just dropping the belts directly back to the Embassy again. What an utter waste of a reign.

Then, after MONTHS of building up Dalton Castle as the heir in waiting to the ROH TV Championship, with the promise of a Castle vs Samoa Joe rematch, they instead just have Joe, the KING OF TELEVISION unceremoniously forfeit his title (on an episode of AEW) and now our promised clash of Dalton and Joe just isn't going to happen, and allegedly there's supposed to be a tournament or something to see who gets to claim the vacated title, but it's been like 3 weeks and zero mention of who gets the shot at that belt or when.

Then, Eddie Kingston(who defeated Claudio to become ROH world Champion on an episode of AEW) just gets to go ahead and put the ROH World Championship up as a prize for the fucking Continental Classic tournament, which is exclusively happening during AEW tv shows, featuring amost exclusively AEW roster. Which ends at the next AEW ppv, World's End on December 30th.

And the latest utter bullshit example of the ROH titles being thrown around like a prize from a gumball machine, with less than a week's worth of build up to the match, Wheeler Yuta, the charisma vacuum, defeats Katsuyori Shibata for the ROH Pure championship (on an episode of AEW) And before anyone um actually's me, I know that Shibata had to go back to Japan for personal reasons, but the handling of this title change was lazy and serves as another example of how little of a shit they seem to give about ROH as a promotion.

Every single ROH title win since like, May has happened on a televised AEW program. Neither Better Than You Bay Bay or The Hung Bucks ever once defended their Ring of Honor titles on Ring of Honor. No member of Ring Of Honor's roster has ever gotten to win an AEW belt and represent it on ROH. It's a completely one-way street where all the biggest stars in AEW, main eventers like MJF, The Young Bucks, Eddie Kingston, get to win ROH titles as a way to make them seem important, but nobody from ROH ever gets to be put over by defeating them.

Of the SIX championships ROH has, Three are currently unavailable to any ROH competitors. The World Championship is now a door prize for an AEW tournament, which means Eddie presumably will not be defending it at Final Battle. And even if he does, he's guaranteed to retain so that it can then be given to the winner of the Continental Classic. Or, some shmuck wins it from him only to have to forfeit it to the winner of said tournament. The ROH TV Championship is in limbo. no one possesses it and can't until they announce some kind of gimmick match to see who gets it. And the ROH Tag Team championship is a big shrug emoji. MJF tore his shoulder at Full Gear, so in all likelihood, he's losing his AEW World Championship to Samoa Joe at World's end. But are they going to bother having him and a mystery partner defend the ROH belts at Final Battle? Given that entirely zero top guys from AEW ever dirty themselves by appearing on ROH, I would be shocked if MJF set foot in an ROH ring. More than likely, he's going to have to do a solo defence again on an episode of Dynamite and lose, or maybe he and Adam Cole will just forfeit the titles and we'll have another stupid tournament or royal rumble to fill more empty belts.

Of the remaining three belts, only the Women's World Championship title is ever regularly defended on ROH. The Embassy are currently on leave because Gates of Agony are in some NJPW tag team event. And Wheeler Yuta only appears on ROH to do Pure Rules squash matches and even then only if he's being used for a replacement pure champ.

Quite frankly Athena is carrying the entire promotion on her god damn shoulders and frankly she does not get nearly the respect she deserves for doing so. She has single handedly made the ROH Women's championship feel like a more important title than either the AEW Women's Championship or the TBS Championship.

They've updated this poster for the event every time one of these titles has changed hands since they first announced it and I really can't help but wonder if it was all just to try and drum up hype and try and trick some people into early ticket sales because frankly I'd ask for my money back at this point between what this event was originally advertised as vs what it's looking like now, vs how it's going to look in 2 weeks.

In short, Tony Khan, please stop treating Ring of Honor like the red headed step child to AEW. It just makes the entire promotion and all the talented wrestlers who work there seem like fucking chumps who just weren't good enough to move up to the big leagues. You're squandering so many good names by stealing belts from ROH to use as fucking accessories to guys who are already in incredibly safe positions.

Like, incredibly unfair to like, Top Flight, The Workhorsemen, Iron Savages, even the fucking Outrunners that none of them have been able to get a shot at those titles because TK or MJF or whoever are unwilling to make their big names lose to the fucking nobodies in ROH?

Incredibly unfair to set up Dalton Castle as the next in line for the TV Belt but then have him go and job to fucking Nick Wayne on AEW.

Why the fuck would anyone want to spend 15 dollars a month subscribing to Honor Club to watch a show that is treated like shit by it's own promotion? Like, ROH used to mean something? Some of the biggest names in the industry got their start there, but it's hardly a place for new, young talent to be able to make a name for themselves when it's just being treated like the kids table for AEW.

Kotallo & Tekotteh

Okay, so we all know that Kotallo is down on himself when Aloy first meets him at Stone’s Crest.

He has lost his arm, and the other Marshals, and is dealing with a lot of Heavy Feelings which I have spoken about elsewhere and will not be addressing here.

BUT

Kotallo doesn’t believe he and Aloy can convince Tekotteh to send the Sky Clan challengers to the Kulrut; so much so that he’s reluctant to even try, and it is only because these are Hekarro’s orders that he is here at all.

The thing is, Kotallo has already been here. He’s already had this conversation with Tekotteh. Except it was before Aloy met him; Kotallo was sent to the Bulwark to convince Tekotteh to send the Sky Clan to the Embassy at Barren Light. And he failed.

Sure, he got some of the Sky Clan there; enough that the Embassy could go ahead. But when the other Marshals ask about the Commander, his reply is, “He isn’t yet... aware we left.”

Kotallo didn’t just waltz into the Bulwark and hand-pick a bunch of Sky Clan warriors to take to the Embassy; he was turned away, humiliated by Tekotteh, and that was when he still had his arm. The Sky Clan members who followed him to the Embassy can be assumed to have prior loyalty to Kotallo, from before he became a Marshal, and also unhappy with how Tekotteh runs things.

(See this post by @wings-of-the-ten about their headcannon for Kotallo’s old squad, because I love it)

Back to the matter at hand.

If Kotallo couldn’t convince Tekotteh to attend the Embassy when he was whole, it’s no wonder he is expecting to fail when he is asked to summon him to the Kulrut after his maiming.

Let’s not forget; Regalla’s rebels had been building power since before their ambush at the Embassy. Kotallo tells Aloy that the rebels have been driving machines through the Sky Clan valley. And what has Tekotteh done about it? Jack shit. He hides behind the Bulwark (”used as a coward’s shield”) and does nothing. His lack of action challenging Regalla’s rebels is in itself a slight against Chief Hekarro. Failing to send the Sky Clan to the Embassy signals that he fears Regalla more than he values his Chief. And after what happens at the Embassy, Tekotteh feels that his fear is justified; he now has all the ammunition he needs for his argument to keep the Sky Clan safe behind the Bulwark.

So of course Kotallo doesn’t think he can succeed when Hekarro asks him to bring the Sky Clan challengers to the Kulrut. He already failed once, and now he has to return to the Bulwark a cripple, burdened by the shame of his survival when death in battle would have been more honourable.

As if that wasn’t enough, Hekarro asks Aloy to accompany him. As though it wasn’t insult enough to need backup, the backup comes in the form of an Outlander. She is neither a Marshal, or Tenakth; Kotallo is smarting at the knowledge that Hekarro does not think he can accomplish his task.

Even after confronting Tekotteh, Kotallo can’t see a way forwards except to kill him. That doesn’t sound like our strategically-minded Marshal, who loves a game of Machine Strike and studying Old-World military tactics.

It’s no wonder Kotallo jumps so quickly to suggesting that Tekotteh needs to be removed, permanently, to bring the Sky Clan into line. He had probably been thinking about it anyway. He probably wonders if things at the Embassy would have gone differently, if there had been more Sky Clan soldiers to fight against Regalla. He has probably spent a lot of time second-guessing himself, whilst he recovered from the loss of his arm.

Even killing Tekotteh might not solve the problems in Sky Clan. Kotallo can’t become the new Commander; he forsook his clan to become a Marshal. Chances are one of Tekotteh’s lackeys would take up the leadership, and Sky Clan still would not respond to Hekarro’s summons.

And then he meets Aloy, and she works miracles. She finds a way to bring Tekotteh into line, all without spilling a single drop of blood. For Kotallo, who is one of Hekarro’s Marshals; a peacekeeper; this is the ultimate ideal.

Aloy does more than treat Kotallo as though he is whole, like his lost arm is no matter to her. She does more than defend him to Tekotteh, standing up for him when the Sky Clan Commander would humiliate him because of his injury. She reminds him what is is to be a Marshal. To bring peace and unity to the Clans.

*

I still maintain that Kotallo is The Broken Sky. Whilst you assume it refers to AETHER causing the storms, you don’t get AETHER until after the Kulrut. Who do we get during The Broken Sky? We get Kotallo. Broken because he has lost his arm. Broken because he has lost his friends. Broken because of his honourable exile from Sky Clan. Broken because he feels he is failing in his duty as a Marshal.

I have many feelings about Kotallo, and all of them are LOVE.
