"Lee, you deserve to lose today's ten-threat match."

Back at the hotel, AJ finally couldn't help but speak, and his worry was palpable.

Li Tianze had long noticed AJ's weirdness, and on the bus back to the hotel, she kept talking and stopped, which was very different from her usual active her.

"You don't want me to win?" Li Tianze couldn't figure out what AJ meant, did she want to lose?

Instead of answering directly, AJ asked rhetorically, "Have you ever heard of indie wrestling?" ”

After two and a half years in the United States, Li Tianze has naturally heard the name of independent wrestling, in fact, the so-called independent wrestling refers to the wrestling league that is not mainstream, has few TV broadcasts, or does not broadcast at all.

The performance elements of the independent world are lower than those of WWE, but the competition is mostly more technical than WWE.

Of course, there are individual (such as CWE) that belong to the independent wrestling league of comedy.

The independent class often refers to the small wrestling league, and the largest wrestling league in the independent class is ROH, which means glory ring in Chinese, the ring of glory, which has contributed many world-class wrestlers to the world, almost all of them like thunder.

ROH's top players can get quite high status when they join other leagues, mainly because wrestling skills are absolutely guaranteed.

Moreover, many well-known players from all over the world have appeared in the ROH ring, such as the famous Kenta Kobayashi, Keiji Muto, who enjoys legendary names in both the United States and Japan, and Shinsuke Nakayi and other island players.

ROH makes all of their game footage into DVDs and sells them on their official website and online store, which is why ROH die-hard fans can be found in the United States and around the world. Regarded by many as the most influential independent league in the world, ROH is the undisputed leader of the independent community.

Compared to ROH, OVW is far less influential, and although OVW is also part of the Independent Wrestling League, it is too close to WWE.

OVW's wrestlers often serve as WWE extras, or as upgrade packages, with the aim of complementing WWE's own stars, and some powerful OVW fighters are groomed to join WWE.

It is precisely because of the partnership with WWE that OVW has attracted many people to use it as a springboard to enter WWE with the halo of independent players.

"How much do you know about CM punk?" AJ asked earnestly.

To be honest, Li Tianze's main focus is still WWE, and his understanding of the independent class is only superficial.

AJ has already gotten the answer from Li Tianze's blank eyes: "CM Punk is not only the champion of OVW, before that, he was also the world champion of OH, a member of the ROH Bullet Gang, and the reason why he entered OVW is to be able to join WWE faster." ”

AJ, a native who knows more than Lee, may be like other American wrestling fans who buy ROH's fight DVDs every month to watch.

"There are three kings in ROH, and they have all played 5-star hardcore games, and CM Punk is one of them." AJ exhaled heavily after saying this.

"5-star hardcore." Li Tianze whispered, he understands the hardcore competition, what does 5 stars mean?

AJ explained: "5 stars represent cruelty, every 5 star match, there is a danger of serious injury, even death, those who can participate in 5-star matches are real masters, and those who can win 5-star matches can shine in the world of wrestling and become stars in the industry." ”

Li Tianze realized that the so-called 5-star game was to rate the intensity and danger of the game, from 1 to 5, with the 5-star being the highest.

"CM Punk is one of the three kings of ROH, so who are the other two?" Li Tianze was curious, CM Punk went to OVW, and the other two would also leave ROH.

AJ decided to give Li Tianze a good science popularization: "One is Samoa Joe, when he was in ROH, he dominated the ROH championship for 18 months, but unfortunately now he has gone to TNA, and he is the current heavyweight champion of TNA. ”

TNA, the second-largest wrestling league in the United States, is of the same nature as WWE, but on a much smaller scale.

"But I heard that Joe wasn't happy at TNA because he didn't think he was being treated like a ROH." AJ Road.

Samoa Qiao, Li Tianze silently remembered this name in his heart, and he must go to the Internet to search for his information when he has the opportunity.

"What about the third place?" Li Tianze can't wait to know the third place.

"The third one is a bit controversial, a lot of people have their own indie wrestlers, and in my opinion, I think it should be the current ROH champion, Daniel Bryan, who is also a member of the ROH Bullet Gang," AJ said. ”

The benevolent see the benevolent, and the wise see the wise.

AJ added: "Of course, there are also many people who believe that it was the former ROH champion Jaminoble, because he defeated CM Punk and took the ROH championship from CM Punk. ”

AJ shook his head: "Jamie Noble's results are not as good as Daniel Bryan, judging by my ten years of experience in watching wrestling, I personally feel that Daniel Bryan is the third king, and his future future is far from being comparable to Jamie." ”

After listening to AJ's tirade, Li Tianze couldn't help but sigh in his heart, it seems that in addition to WWE, there are many wrestling masters, but it's a pity that he doesn't have the opportunity to fight them one by one.

"AJ, I remember the TNA you watched with me last week, and there was an AJ in it too, uh, a male AJ."

When it comes to wrestling leagues other than WWE, Li Tianze suddenly remembered the TNA that AJ pulled himself to watch last week, and there was a male player with long flowing hair who was also named AJ.

Referring to TNA's male AJ, AJ was a little excited: "That's AJ Styles, TNA's most popular idol and strong player, Sting's hand-picked successor, TNA's new legendary master, Lee, in fact, your current performance is very similar to him." ”

Sting, no need to be introduced by AJ, Li Tianze also knows who the sacred, the Scorpion Empire, is known as the only legend outside of WWE, and his status in the wrestling world is equal to that of the undertaker.

It's a pity that Sting and the undertaker have never fought each other, which is a regret in the hearts of countless wrestling fans.

"I really want to fight them all." Li Tianze's eyes were full of eagerness, and he yearned for a challenge.

AJ said: "Isn't your chance to fight CMPUNK, one of the three kings of ROH on Valentine's Day, and if you beat him at OVW, you can make a name for yourself in the global wrestling industry." ”

"Then why do you say I shouldn't have won today's Deca-Threat Elimination?" Li Tianze was puzzled, and AJ's words were inconsistent.

AJ said angrily: "You're going to OVW, in their territory, you think they're going to have a normal match with you?" If I'm not mistaken, they've probably got you covered, maybe it's a 5-star hardcore match. ”

Li Tianze smiled, it turned out that AJ was worried about his injury, no wonder he didn't want him to win today's ten-threat knockout match.

"You think I'm going to be worse than CM Punk?" Li Tianze retracted his smile and said.

AJ pursed his lips and shook his head: "No, you're no worse than anyone else." ”

A smile appeared on Li Tianze's face again: "Isn't that it, since CM Punk can win a 5-star hardcore game in ROH, then why can't I?" If he can win, so can I, and I have to prove to everyone that I'm better than him. ”

AJ stared at Li Tianze, his eyes filled with elusive emotion: "I believe in you, I will definitely win." ”

Li Tianze patted her shoulder: "Don't worry, I will definitely win." ”

"By the way, Dean seems to have spent a year in Doula Palace before, maybe you can get the inside story of the 5-star competition from his mouth."

Li Tianze thought that Ambrose had spent a year in the island country's Doola Palace before coming to FCW, and according to the positioning of the Doola Palace Alliance, it should also belong to the independent class.

AJ rolled his eyelids and glanced at Li Tianze: "He won't help you, you robbed him of the opportunity to challenge CM punk." ”

AJ's original intention was that if Li Tianze didn't win tonight's game, he could let Ambrose face CM Punk and play that unpredictable and very likely 5-star hardcore match.

Li Tianze spread his hands and shrugged his shoulders, AJ was right, with his relationship with Ambrose, it was indeed impossible for Ambrose to help him.

"Isn't it a 5-star hardcore game, the soldiers will block the water and cover the earth, what is the CM punk, one of the three kings of ROH, I beat him like the same with his face full of flowers, kneeling and begging for mercy."

The battle flame in Li Tianze's body was burning, and he couldn't wait to hope that Valentine's Day would come sooner.
