Just Adam Bay Bay Posted November 20, 2022 Share Posted November 20, 2022 (edited) I’m not sure where ROH is actually headed based on these two pieces of news from yesterday: In the Wrestling Observer Newsletter, Dave Meltzer reports that Final Battle is being promoted as ‘AEW Presents Ring of Honor. Khan said he considered different options with weekly ROH TV (namely YouTube) but doesn’t want to jump into something when there are a lot of options out there. “It deserves something better," he said. He is still optimistic about getting a weekly ROH tv show. The last part is a quote from the media scrum last night.

If not, then WTF tony? 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dragonzombie Posted November 20, 2022 Share Posted November 20, 2022 Yeah sometimes plans don't work out. WBD and more may not want former dead brand on their channels or services. AEW presenting ROH is weird because they're both separate companies. Unless Tony wants to fold the new ROH Acquisition Co., LLC in the AEW owned company. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If not, then WTF tony? I don’t get the people that still think it’s destined for HBO Max. If it was they’d have finalized something by now, even if they’re holding off on the announcement for Final Battle. His statement reads like they have the YouTube option, then they’re being offered public access or something. Clearly if it was Discovery he’d be putting over their media partner, or at least suggesting he’s actively working to finalize a deal. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Octopus Posted November 20, 2022 Share Posted November 20, 2022 I just want a streaming service where I can watch Danielson vs McGuinness right after Brit vs Rosa in the same app. Figures crossed Tony buys CHIKARA. 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Going to take a wild guess and say WarnerMedia doesn't want Tony putting on ROH as a competing product (and probably can't contractually) - at least with the AEW branding you're aware that it's from the same company that airs on TNT and TBS 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If not, then WTF tony? Just to clarify, the "deserves something better" part was specifically about doing a Youtube show. He first said he didn't want to hastily jump in to anything when there's a lot of options out there, then later said he could easily do a Youtube show but feels it deserves something better, noting that it would be a placeholder but admitted there would be some benefit to it. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Matt D Posted November 26, 2022 Share Posted November 26, 2022 (edited) Claudio vs Jericho with fun stips FTR vs Gunns or Kingdom? Mercedes vs Athena Joe vs ??? Garcia vs ??? Dalton/Boys vs ??? (Go 2.0/Hager or Rush/10... Andrade? or I guess Cage/Gates?) As good as I think Mercedes vs Athena will be I feel like they need to toss a dream match on this... like Danielson/Shibata vs Briscoes. I would like to see Danielson/Shibata vs Briscoes. Would you like to see Danielson/Shibata vs Briscoes too? Can we will this into the universe and then have the Danielson vs Shibata singles match on the Portland AEW show?

Villanova Grad Posted November 28, 2022 Share Posted November 28, 2022 I like Claudio quite a bit, but my first thought is that TK has given up on getting a tv deal, so might as well put the belt back on a smaller name. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I could go for Danielson/Shibata vs Briscoes, yes. And then, after the Briscoes win, it could lead to Danielson vs Shibata one on one at one pre-show or another. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Or Claudio is a big enough name to headline a big show before Jericho drops the belt on the first episode of the tv show. I’m not super confident that a tv deal is happening but it could go either way. If a tv deal isn’t announced at this show I’d imagine it’s probably not going to ever happen and ROH will probably start to fade away. With JoE being a double champ I could easily see the TV title getting merged with TNT if a deal doesn’t materialize. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bill S. Preston ESQ. Posted November 29, 2022 Share Posted November 29, 2022 Im hoping for an AEW Network App. Put an exclusive ROH show on there, live PPV's, a Renee backstage show and the archived episodes of Dynamite, Rampage, Dark, Elevation, ROH TV, maybe BTE and all the AEW/ROH PPV's. Should be gold. "Cooking with Pretty Peter Avalon" who wouldn't watch that? 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
John from Cincinnati Posted November 29, 2022 Share Posted November 29, 2022 Surely the obvious pitch is the cooking show is hosted by Renee. I'm sure Pretty Peter will be welcome as a guest. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Shartnado Posted December 1, 2022 Share Posted December 1, 2022 So, the starting time of Final Battle in US is 4PM. Does that make it like 11PM over here? If so, then it's actually possible to watch this one live. If I don't have any other plans for that evening, and I'm pretty sure I don't. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
