Yeah I doubt they thought they'd be helping their eventual competition.

Fresh off of finally getting John Cena to follow her on Twitter, my girl Sessions Moth Martina has signed with ROH, apparently turning down a NXT UK contract.
Her ROH deal will allow her to continue working STARDOM dates in Japan and also Europe bookings.
Whatever gets her name out there more. I don't think her gimmick would fly in NXT, but I love it. Hope the best for her.

Speaking of ROH, I'd sure like to see Jay Lethal in AEW. Also can't believe he's 34. I would've guessed 43-45 range.

You would've known about that had you not been hiding from the bigfan terrorists.

I'm sorry, that was uncalled for. hahaha But seriously, I was the biggest ROH guy on here. Then every fed stole all their guys and it became 205 Live. I hated it in the end. Haven't watched it since.

I have an Impact Plus subscription. You're more than welcome to go back and watch some vintage X-Division stuff.

TNA had some very good/great years throughout their history. They also have a pretty good product now. The Hogan/Bischoff years are what killed their viability as a solid alternative to WWE.

I think when Lethal had that year long plus reign as world champ, he should've gone to WWE or NXT right after. He was the hottest he'd ever been in his career. After that, he had another reign but it was forgettable.

But purchasing the ROH tape library to place on that Impact app they have makes a ton of sense. Obviously an Impact v ROH feud to make the Impact timeslot hot could be great. Except who is "ROH" that would make it hot? Could be like getting Lance Storm to kick off the invasion. Plus it's more mouths to feed, but there should be more money with the AXS deal. Interesting times.

And I don't know who Quinn McKay is but she was particularly awful.
I thought I read that due to Sinclair buying up all those Fox Sports regional networks, that they were going to need to fill a lot more programming and that they would possibly even expand ROH in some fashion. No idea.

Ring of Honor announced the following:
Jim Johnston, the man responsible for composing the most iconic entrance themes in sports entertainment, has created new music for Ring of Honor star PCO. The theme will be unveiled at ROH’s Death Before Dishonor pay-per-view on Friday, Sept. 27.
Johnston worked for World Wrestling Entertainment for more than three decades, composing instantly recognizable entrance themes for the likes of Steve Austin, The Rock, DX, The Undertaker, Ultimate Warrior and countless others. PCO’s music is the first theme Johnston has written since leaving WWE two years ago.
“It’s been great fun to work on a new theme for PCO and Ring of Honor,” Johnston told ROHWrestling.com. “The energy there has been all positive, and it’s been my honor to hopefully make a small contribution to their continued success.”
PCO said he is thrilled with the music and is excited for everyone to hear it for the first time at Death Before Dishonor in Las Vegas.
“It really brings the essence of PCO and adds another dimension to the immortality,” PCO said. “It reinforces that PCO is not human. Adding this piece of the puzzle on top of everything else, the success of The French-Canadian Frankenstein becomes limitless.”
PCO will face Kenny King at Death Before Dishonor in the first round of the Final Battle No. 1 Contender Tournament.

Rush pinned Matt Taven to win the ROH Title tonight. CMLL has officially announced they've fired Rush and Dragon Lee (who was a surprise tonight at the PPV). Wow.

Matt Taven announced at yesterday's ROH Death Before Dishonor: Fallout TV tapings that he would be staying with Ring of Honor. His contract was set to expire on October 1.
In regards to his new contract, it was reported on the latest Wrestling Observer Radio that Taven's contract starts out at double the highest paid wrestler in NXT, and can end up being about triple by the end of it.
Ultimately, staying with ROH would obviously be a better financial move while also working less dates.
WWE was reportedly interested in the former ROH World Champion, but Dave Meltzer reported the difference in the two deals was "ridiculous."
Taven dropped the ROH World Championship to Rush over the weekend at Death Before Dishonor.

I don't mind Taven but he's been a bad champion for ROH.

I don't watch ROH anymore but it's a smart move.
I'd rather be considered one of ROH's top guys than just a random guy in NXT that might get pushed in a year.
Take the most money you can get.

Dammit Joey Mercury deleted his tweet. It was basically text message from ROH GM Greg someone saying Hikileo was booked by Delirious and was a waste of $$.
