When I was 17, my father was so stupid, I didn't want to be seen with him in public. When I was 24, I was amazed at how much the old man had learned in just 7 years.
My assumption before ROH went into trouble was that Gresham was going to get the belt from Bandido and then we'd see him and Jay again since it feels like where everything was being built for.

I've recently been rewatching some of my old ROH DVD rips, and I have to say - seeing those ads for the ROH wrestling school is hilarious. Has there been any graduate from that school that had any serious success, even on the independent level? The only person who came to mind who had any kind of longevity is Rhett Titus.

Yeah, there being no indication of Gresham making moves beyond setting up his own super-indie seems like a low-key sign that he's staying with ROH in whatever form it continues (if it does)

The TV is weird because they're definitely still building storylines for post-Battle stuff but also acknowledging that it is potentially the end.

Post-Crisis ROH won't count anything from this continuity as canon. I hear they're getting Kieron Gillen to reboot the Briscoes.

They can't do Ki/CD/Dragon because Ki is doing a show in NY but I wonder how else Tony Khan is helping ROH on their last show.

Dragon will come out to "Final Countdown" for one last time because ROH's lack of popularity actually makes the song affordable for licensing.

Even less serious answer: BBT Tony comes out after the main event to announce that he has actually bought ROH from Sinclair and it will be rebranded as Ring of Dark Honor.

I got the vibe they’re rebuilding ROH around Gresham and EC3. IDK what all is getting scrapped in the rebuild, my worry is they try to build a closed system like WWE. Nothings worse than soulless studio wrestling cranked out en masse in front of a dead crowd.

Whatever happens next they're not signing any contracts and are just using PPA talent, which is why all the big names are bailing as soon as possible.

Best-case scenario it ends up being East Coast PWG, worst-case scenario it's, like, Championship Wrestling From Baltimore or whatever the hell NWA is doing now.

East Coast PWG that tours and uses lots of local talent sounds really good actually. Though we kinda have that with Dark/Elevation.

It was announced during the preshow that without Bandido the match would be taking place for the original ROH world title, not the redesigned one Bandido currently held

I wonder if its gonna be a copromotion thing with Impact because AFAIK, ROH hasn't been building anything on their TV. I'm not even sure they've been running TV.

It was weird as hell seeing OGK and Vincent not immediately attack each other.

They were building a little on their TV. Like the EC3 program seems to be an ongoing thing. They also had Angelina Love doing a generic "I don't like any of these women" angle I'm guessing in case they lose their whole division before it comes back.

I feel like ROH is a lot less valuable to anyone but Sinclair since Sinclair theoretically has the ability to put it into most cable watchers living rooms.

Wrestling is a lot, lot cheaper to produce and hold than reruns of a sitcom and best case scenario for Sincalair/ROH is that they put it on after the 9pm news and hope old people fall asleep while the ads play

And the mercy seat is awaiting,
And I think my head is burning,
And in a way I'm yearning,
To be done with all this measuring of proof.
An eye for an eye
And a tooth for a tooth,
And anyway I told the truth,
And I'm not afraid to die.
this is quite the hoax

I've watched a few of her shows because they pop up on F4Ws youtube channel and just a ton of that smash that like and subscribe button youtube fake energy crap. It's bad enough when people do it for other pop culture but to run WWE programming through that filter, it's just tough to listen to.
