This can't be true about the Bucks re-signing. Everybody was suppose to leave eOH after 12/31 according to these experts out there. All hail!

So people are still acting like Kyle is leaving despite the fact that he won the world title. They are still acting like people are leaving even though the Bucks and Silas have already started the trend of people staying. LOL!

So typical that after ROH puts on a very well received PPV the haters have to come out of the woodwork with more doom and gloom even after they have already been proven wrong by the Bucks renewing.

These breakdowns always occur between Elgin and ROH. It's been happening for the past few and it's nothing new. No big deal. They'll make up again soon enough and he still works for ROH's partner

Nigel is not an in ring competitor and it's no big deal. It's common for older wrestlers to join up with WWE as trainers or agents. In Nigel's case they seemed to change their minds and decided to go with him doing commentary instead.

Wake me when top ROH wrestlers actually defect to WWE. This whole thing about their current world leaving sounds so laughable.

Remember during Final Battle week when the word was that everybody was expected to re-sign afterall? ROH put on a very well received show and The Bucks announced they signed new multi-year deals. The doom and gloom haters had no room to talk and they had egg on their face. A few weeks pass by and now it's back to the same old mass exodus talk. They need to go back to spreading negativity to fuse their agendas and to try to save face

At most Kyle will go full time with New Japan, which means he would still show up in ROH. So this is not a big deal at all. This is the same thing Elgin has been doing before he had another one of his fights with ROH. Kyle is too much of a wrestling purest to choose WWE over New Japan.

This doesn't even make any sense. Earlier this month Meltzer was reporting that ROH was getting aggressive in attempting to renew these contracts, now he's claiming they've been slow to offer new deals. Has anyone told the Bucks and Silas Young that ROH is moving get slow on This? I think Meltzer has been losing it for awhile now. It really shows after he jumped the gun on Hero and Mickie James.

This thing about O'Reilly and these Texas shows is also comical given the fact that New Japan has a tour during these dates. Again Kyle will do the New Japan and ROH combo. He and Davey Richards came up together to be real wresteers, not sports entertainers. He's a real fighter who would never subject himself to the WWE cartoon world.

The Bucks, Silas, Lethal. Daniels, Shane Taylor. ROH is on a role with their re-signings with plenty more to come.

I'm just so stunned that some random person from reddit would have false info. I mean they're claiming Kyle is waiting for WWE medicals before his contract even expired. You cannot do or schedule WWE medicals when still under contract somewhere.

The whole idea of Kyle to WWE is laughable for a number of reasons. Kyle plays this game every week year with ROH. People have jump the gun on this like they did with Hero.

Why hasn't Keith Lee signed yet?

Could it be that he's supposedly WWE bound like everyone else?

I bet news will come out of the Dome show regarding many ROH and/other New Japan signings. New Japan will officially declare war on WWE during the show.

Elgin is still bitter over being the worse ROH champion since Xavier.

I bet the latest developments between Kyle and ROH is a work just like the deal with New Japan and Kenny Omega. Kyle tweets out something similar to what Omega tweeted out about needing time off. Kyle will take a break and then return with a huge angle just like with Omega and New Japan.

Kevin Kelly is not even 100% gone. He just left his office job due to the added stress of doing commentary for New Japan. He'll still be doing announcing work as freelancer. Just more ammo ROH haters are trying to use against the company. Even if he was gone it's no big deal. Kelly has been mediocre at best as an announcer dating back to his WWE days. Him being the voice of ROH has made the company look lame as he presents an uncool image. His claim to fame is being the guy The Rock would always make fun of and refer to as hermie.

Btw, War Machine are booked on the Honor Rising shows, but wait they are headed to WWE.

Roque's list of haters is getting pretty long

No reason to hate anybody right now. I'm just laughing knowing that ROH put on a killer show this past Saturday and that ROH embarrassed both WWE and TNA with the surprise appearances of people everybody assumed were WWE and TNA bound. No 20 second main event at Manhattan Mayhem.

Also funny at these reports of five ROH names being WWE bound. People are still talking about War Machine even though New Japan just started a big push for them and Fish even though he still has a contract. Dijak will go to TNA, as they're pushing big for new talent and Jarrett knows how to hustle. He got AJ, Joe, Roode, etc to stick with him for years. KOR is a possibility for TNA, but New Japan and ROH is more likely.

Doesn't matter since he like others will be working outside of WWE and even if people want to go to WWE they can't go any time soon. ROH has successfully blocked people from being able to go there for a minimum of 6 months

This story is most likely B.S. Even if there's anything going on it's probably just WWE calling Sinclair in other one of their attempts to own everything. It will to the way of the WWE buying TNA talk from last year.

This likely explains why all these wrestlers have been leaving ROH. They don' t want to go to WWE. They've heard rumblings of talks so they're all jumping off before they would end up getting tied down to WWE in a sale.

SI.com: What is so appealing to you about the New Japan “strong style” of wrestling? Are you considering working there full-time?

O’Reilly: The New Japan “strong style” is what made me fall in love with the sport all over again. It is the use of legitimate technique in a setting that is conducive to making what we do believable and realistic. A sports-like presentation and background coupled with believable wrestlers has allowed me to put forth a body of work of which I’m very proud. Wrestling for New Japan has given me a platform to truly show what Kyle O’Reilly is all about and it provides the greatest visual representation of my style. The knowledge I gained from the legends there is invaluable and the respect shown from the fans is humbling. I would absolutely consider working there full-time and hope to eventually end up back there. Whether that is in six months or six years remains to be seen, however I definitely have unfinished business in NJPW.

Yes. Notice how Meltzer and Mike Johnson have yet to actually say he's signed a contract? Looks like Fish was just in for a one and done jobber role, similar to Danny Burch.
