More booking, creative, communication and politics.

I only know by my own experience and who I talk to. I could be getting a skewed view. But there's a number of talents counting down the days until they are out of contract. Kevin Kelly is a climber and snake in the grass. Just look at Larry Legend's firing and the situation that I wish someone would report on with Truth Martini.

For the sake of balance there's people in EVOLVE who think a lot of ROH as at least they have kinda a steadfast plan in place as opposed to throwing poo poo against the wall which EVOLVE tends to do.

feel like the bucks are in line for as major a push as gaijin juniors can possibly have in new japan what with being omega's sidekicks and unifying the tag divisions

My experience with ROH's office was absolute madness so I can't but wonder how they treat their contracted talent.

Suck it
Two tears in a bucket
And then another thing
I'm not the one they'll try their luck with
Hit hard like brass knuckles
See your face through the turnbuckle dude
I got no love for you

Yeah my time working with ROH sucked once Sinclair took over, but that might have been because they figured I was a mark they could take advantage of. I mean I was, but even I have a limit!

It is a men's trios title.

It has a funny name. But I assume it is open to any weight class.

It's the Big Three Title and it's a comically large belt that goes around all three guys and they have to walk together to the ring like a three legged race deal.

I can't think of a single trio in ROH that arent the nobody cabinet and whatever rotating cast of BC guys there are.

They could come up with plenty of trios teams by just taking their tag division and adding dudes of the same alignment in. MCMG were just in that 8-man tag at Field of Honor, throw either Rush or ACH in their trios team and there's established precedent. I dunno who the natural fit with reDRagon is though.

I hope this new title has a series of unconventional rules which Nigel explains very dryly before each match.

Honestly a 6 man title makes sense, they obviously love doing multi man matches on nearly every show as it is, why not make them worth something

Apparently ROH has been aggressively trying to resign people so they probably won't be going into Final Battle with their pants down you know like in scenario of the ROH title match being O'Reilly vs Cole with both possibly WWE bound.

Trios matches are seemingly becoming trendy. Will Ospreay just launched essentially a vanity trios title of his own to defend across the UK.

Yep so there's gonna be a tournament for them trios titles.

So as seemingly needless these I see maybe them unifying the CMLL/NEVER/ROH trios titles down the line. Oh and maybe Will Ospreay's vanity belts too.

Looks like all 10 of ROH's wrestlers will all get a title! Can't wait for that ANX and Caprice Coleman trios run.

WWE has 13 titles now? And NJPW isn't far behind. Clearly RoH is just trying to catch up

CMLL has around 20 if you don't count regional titles

You know they say that all demons are created equal, but you look at me and you look at Pyro Jack and you can see that statement is not true, hee-ho!
Can't wait for a CMLL trios team to get that title and then never defend it. And then like ten years later, when their partnership with ROH is up, they'll call it the ROH Historical Trios Title or whatever.

The Young Bucks 6Man is the most consistent thing ROH has had the last two years; so might as well put a title with it. Cole is probably the worst partner of them but they have all been good.

He's right. Lio Rush is a better wrestler, but only somewhat, and Castle is way better as a character.

Yes, and while I'm not trying to sound like Vince here I do think Lio's size hurts him if we're talking about potential promotional aces.

While we're on the subject of newer talent, Is Jason Kincaid signed or are they just interested?
