Here is what the fans and critics are saying about the "Driven" PPV:
"Ring of Honor's Driven pay-per-view was both a great wrestling show and something of relief for anyone worn down from the steady stream of either lackluster (WWE) or aggravatingly awful (TNA) pay-per-views the so-called major companies have ponied up lately." - Bruce Mitchell in the 10/6/07 Pro Wrestling Torch
"I couldn't make a very strong argument that the first PPV was better than this one, but both shows were more than worth the $15....It's refreshing to see tag team wrestling mean something tangible on my television." - James Caldwell @PWTorch.com
"I felt like I was watching old NWA from the late 80's with cutting edge wrestling maneuvers. For the first time, since well, Great American Bash when Sting beat Flair the first time, I did not get ripped off on a Pay Per View. Maybe it's just super excitement over all these new fresh characters...." - William Hatfield @PWTorch.com
"This was the first time I've ever seen ROH wrestling and let me say WOW!! This made me flashback to the early days of ECW with the crowd boiling hot and the wrestlers busting their asses for the fans." - Charles Grasho @PWTorch.com
"Unreal pay per view. Love how they are carrying storylines directly from PPV to PPV. It makes it easy for the casual fan to follow everything that is going on."- Hughesmiester @PWTorch.com
"Nigel vs Dragon was as good as advertised....This match had state of the art mat wrestling and submissions, hard hitting strikes, and even some high flying thrown in. This is what a pro wrestling respectful rivalry should be all about." - Jason Detrick @PWTorch.com
"...after seeing the recent WWE and TNA television and PPV offerings, it only took five minutes into the first match (of "Driven") where you felt you were getting a product that blows away the big leagues of U.S. wrestling...those who do see it, unless you are so indoctrinated into a different style that you can't accept new stuff, it'll be awfully hard not to like this show a lot....It has significantly better wrestling than TNA minus the headache inducing booking...." - Dave Meltzer - September 26th edition of The Wrestling Observer Newsletter
"I said Respect is Earned was the third best PPV behind Backlash and WrestleMania, but Driven leaves them all behind, and by a substantial margin." - J.D. Dunn at 411mania.com (http://www.411mania.com/wrestling/tv_reports/60285/The-ROHport:-Ring-of-Honor-—-Driven.htm)
"Danielson vs. Nigel is as good as pro wrestling gets in today's generation. If you have given up on old school wrestling, believing that genre is dead forever, you might want to give this PPV an order. All you have to lose is $10 but I honestly believe you'll get ten times that amount in athletic wrestling action. Complete thumbs up. Order this show as soon as you can." - Mike Johnson at PWInsider.com (http://www.pwinsider.com/ViewArticle.asp?id=26660&p=1)
"(10.0) You must buy this PPV and watch it. If you’ve never given ROH a shot, they deserve your money for this show. It is the best PPV I’ve seen since “One Night Stand” in 2005. This was simply an amazing show from top to bottom. The McGuinness-Danielson matches is one of those matches I’ll go back and watch from time to time as the years go by, as it will never get old watching the masterpiece they put on in front of a rabid crowd in Philadelphia where ROH was born." - Sean Radican at PWTorch.com (http://pwtorch.com/artman2/publish/PPV_Reports_5/article_22895.shtml)
"Great show top to bottom, and Nigel vs. Danielson is right up with Cena vs. Umaga and Cena vs. HBK for best matches of the year, with the crowd in a fucking frenzy in the closing minutes. For just $10 or $15, it's a ****ing steal. There was also a hot opener, good storyline development, and some solid tag team wrestling between the Briscoes and Steen/Generico." - Rick Cobos @wrestlingobserver.com
"This was my first PPV purchase since an early ECW PPV in the mid-90's and I must say I was impressed. Having abandoned wrestling for many years, I tuned back in to find WWE and TNA to be basically unwatchable. It's good to know that there is still top quality wrestling out there somewhere." - Randy Ray @ wrestlingobserver.com
"Now this is what a wrestling show should be. Never a dull moment in this show, and even had me, the jaded wrestling fan that I am outright clapping at my screen for the first time since the Benoit tragedy." - Ben Kugel @pwtorch.com
"People who say there is nothing good to watch need to check this out. ROH is currently the saving grace of North American pro wrestling." - Dave Musgrave @wrestlingobserver.com
"If I'm coming off as an overexcited fanboy, it's probably because I've become one of ROH. I ordered this PPV off Dish Network the other day ago because I've had enough of the mainstream product (I've mentioned such in previous feedbacks). I figured, it's ten bucks, I've heard a ton of good things and the Youtube videos impressed me with what they had so far so I'd give it a shot and damn, am I glad I did." - Ern Smith @pwtorch.com
"A great PPV. I watched this at my friend's house, because I have DirectTV. Despite her intentions to putter around (she's not a wrestling fan), she watched the whole show and came away impressed. Top to bottom,. this was one of the best shows of the the year. I was blown away by the main event, but I also loved the Claudio/Sydal match, the opener and the Tag Title match." - Ryan Callahan @wrestlingobserver.com
"I ordered The PPV last night and HOLY CRAP!!! THE SHOW WAS AMAZINGLY AWESOME" - Nate McAtee @wrestlingobserver.com
"A massive thumbs up. This was my first ROH show, and they put on a classic, memorable pay-per-view with an amazing, Budokan-hall level main event. This puts all other wrestling PPVs of 2007 (and other years, for that matter) to shame, and if you call yourself a pro wrestling fan you should get this at once." - Dan Nell @wrestlingobserver.com
"This was easily the best ppv I've seen since Vengeance 2005. I liked it light years more than Respect Is Earned cause everything seemed to have more meaning on it....Overall, a phenominal show. I urge everyone to check it out whether you're a hardcore fan or someone who is fed up with the crap on tv cause this show, absolutely blew away anything TNA & WWE has done in years." - Todd J. Packard @wrestlingobserver.com
"The quality of the first 6 matches became unimportant after watching the main event because Bryan and Nigel put on a clinic, easily making the PPV worth the $14.95 price." - Jeff Beecher @wrestlingobserver.com
The fans and critics have spoken. We can't make that stuff up. Now witness "Driven" for yourself before it is too late!!!
