RIPPA Posted January 1, 2021 Share Posted January 1, 2021 I entitled last year's thread something like "Will 2020 be ROH last year?" What 2020 showed us was that the one good thing Sinclair will do is fund ROH no matter what. So into the breach once more Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Natural Posted January 5, 2021 Share Posted January 5, 2021 (edited) I can't see AEW and NJPW wanting him back either. Maybe NJPW with time. Edited January 5, 2021 by The Natural 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

EVA Posted January 5, 2021 Share Posted January 5, 2021 My guess is that it was a contract issue, like they could pay him less money to go away if they waited until the new year. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Loki Posted January 5, 2021 Share Posted January 5, 2021 1 hour ago, EVA said: My guess is that it was a contract issue, like they could pay him less money to go away if they waited until the new year. That's what I was thinking too. Maybe there was some sort of payroll budgeting that made it easier for them to justivy waiting till now? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NikoBaltimore Posted January 5, 2021 Share Posted January 5, 2021 (edited) Or maybe it was them waiting until Final Battle so he can help them with that before leaving. That is assuming of course it's not a contract-related reason. Edited January 5, 2021 by NikoBaltimore Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cubbymark Posted January 6, 2021 Share Posted January 6, 2021 The Irish guy suspects it might be visa related. In either event, no big deal. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

EVA Posted January 7, 2021 Share Posted January 7, 2021 Yeah, New Japan doesn’t give a fuck as long as you don’t get arrested in Japan. And they don’t seem to mind hiring guys who’ve had falling-outs with their partners, as they signed up Dragon Lee with the quickness after he left CMLL (under very different circumstances, obviously!).

Marty Sugar Posted January 7, 2021 Share Posted January 7, 2021 I've been catching up on ROH and I've really enjoyed the Pure Title tournament so far; I watched the first three episodes as of note. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Web Conn Posted January 7, 2021 Share Posted January 7, 2021 ROH put this up their YouTube Page last night. RIP Brodie. Pretty good tag match. The finish is a little shoulder shruggy but I’ve seen worse. The match is interesting other than featuring Brodie Lee, as it’s the first pairing of what would become The All Night Express in Rhett Titus and Kenny King. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RIPPA Posted January 8, 2021 Author Share Posted January 8, 2021 Re: Marty This part of what was in the new WON Quote There is a big issue for Scurll, who owns a home in Florida, is that if he’s not working in the U.S. he may also have to leave the country. It’s hard to know, due to the allegation, if anyone in the U.S. would hire him, or if people in the U.K. would use him. WWE still uses people with allegations but hiring someone new is a different issue. Obviously he’s got connections with AEW but that would be tough. While the situation is completely different, AEW has people who really want Tessa Blanchard in but feel that they can’t do so. New Japan is a likely place he could work but that’s contingent on the world getting back to normal 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Natural Posted January 9, 2021 Share Posted January 9, 2021 (edited) Thanks, @RIPPA. Scurll's screwed. NJPW seems the likeliest destination but the world isn't getting back to normal with more coronavirus positive tests and sadly more deaths. Scrull has connections in AEW but would they take him on with those allegations? I don't think so. There's the UK scene. WWE maybe.

Jenalysis Posted January 9, 2021 Share Posted January 9, 2021 (edited) Scurll would have to move FT to Japan to have career, and that's if NJPW wants him. Maybe in the short term he pops up on Strong? AEW won't take him. MLW might- but for $50 and a hotdog. Edited January 9, 2021 by alstein Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
