It was reported Turner doesn’t want ROH. They keep trying to tell Turner to take something they don’t want all of a sudden AEW isn’t gonna have a tv deal. The people with money said no and that’s the end of it. No means no.

Dude. You don't gotta suck his asshole clean because he's one of your parasocial Twitter wrestling bros. You can admit that he hasn't done anything well with this and hurt the big things going with this shit. He's had months to make them a fucking YouTube channel and make good but he hasn't.
They didn’t run in like 60-70% or the country including here. It has literally no value to me.

God help me but I'm starting to agree a bit with Eric Bischoff (and I guess Valeyard) about Tony Khan having IWC worm brain.
I don't think ROH even has the lasting cultural impact among mainstream wrestling fans that Impact/TNA had let alone ECW or WCW. Yet all Tony Khan did during AEW's brief partnership with Impact Wrestling was do his poor man's 1993 Vince McMahon shtick and clown on them!

Put the ROH footage online already. That’s all I want.

Legit question: What was ROH's biggest house (not counting the MSG show)?
3000 I think

6100 for the New Orleans show in 2018.
Man Dave just buried the fuck out of them for how they’ve handled the fight situation and he’s totally right

ROH couldn't draw more than 2,000 people in Las Vegas, the tourism and entertainment of the USA, with Cody, Young Bucks, Okada, Jushin Thunder Liger and a bunch of others that would draw huge crowds for AEW (and now WWE) just a few years later. Any success AEW has had has been in spite of ROH's influence not because of it.

The main reason AEW exists is because ROH wouldn’t give the Elite the book, so they quit and found somewhere else to work. That is an absolute fact. The ROH name is synonymous with Sinclair right wing trash for me. Bury it, it’s over.

Well, ROH wouldn't give Young Bucks a raise but yeah, from reading their book, I bet if Sinclair offered them the same money that they got in 2016-18 but gave them creative control then they probably would have reupped.
Lol dude imagine if the smackdown main event in 2001 was always some WCW shit that was hanging on by literally the skin of their teeth. In this scenario the main event every week would be some shit Yung Dragons vs the Road Warriors. Or Ric Flair defending his US Title against Chavo Guerrero riding his broom stick horse. Maybe sometimes you get a tv title match with Rick Steiner vs Shawn Stasiak man this shit is too ridiculous isn’t it. Thing is the those guys are WAY more known than Dalton Castle.

And he got an expanded creative role. I can't imagine Tony Khan did too much hemming and hawing from giving into Jericho's demands (nor should he).

Also, Tony Khan from a Sports Illustrated interview:
“We’ll have great news soon about Ring of Honor weekly shows,” Khan says. “The success of Death Before Dishonor on pay-per-view has ensured there will be more Ring of Honor pay-per-views.
“Our goal is to have one more great pay-per-view for Ring of Honor in 2022 and then follow that up with a weekly show in 2023.”

Just steal the ROH event names to use for more big events/ppvs/whatever. That's all. An ROH show as he says there is literally just an AEW show that will have a smaller crowd and mean nothing for the actual brand worth focusing energy on. The misnomer of "well ROH draws" when the show is loaded with Jericho, Bryan, FTR, etc. is gonna be the worst.

I hope ROH gets a show and they separate and I never have to see the ROH people again. I'm willing to sacrifice Jericho and one (1) young talent to make this happen. I suggest Jungle Boy. But I'd even lose Garcia at this point to get rid of ROH.
I think we will shortly find that with an AEW platform available and multiple WWE platforms available that they won’t get much of anyone willing to solely be on ROH. And then that means they dilute and divide their roster and it’s all fucked when that happens.
