Cornette was VP of the HDNet show and co-booked with Delirious . He wasn't fully in charge of creative (thank the gods) and was over ruled on Steen as we saw. I do remember a shoot at the end where Cornette praised Delirious as one of the best young bookers he ever worked alongside.Originally Posted by wjowski

Best thing Cornette did for RoH is getting it brought by Sinclair. RoH would be dead if he didn't make that deal happen.

Delirious booked from 2010 to right now. The loss of talent has really hit ROH the last few years. Losing stars has led the company to try and build the home grown stars they have. Originally Posted by Immortal Weapon

I doubt that Sinclair will sell off RoH. They reason they brought it is so they have content on syndication for their TV stations. Unless they have something else to fill the void I don't see them selling. Originally Posted by SUPERECWFAN1

Sinclair shopped to AEW for what it's worth but nobody was interested.
The only thing I see happening is RoH goes to WWE for the tape library for guys like Punk, Steen and Bryan."Always listen to the crazy scientist with a weird van or armful of blueprints and diagrams." -- Vibranium

I support an Impact and ROH merger. Ring of honor still has a great name value. I feel like Impact still has a negative stigma.
Callus and Matthews are just far superior announcers to what ROH has. The overall Impact presentation is far superior. You bring in that ROH talent like Cobb, Bandido, the Briscoes and so on. That would just bring some energy to the product. Also it takes away one more competitor for talent.
AEW is going to come after talent in awhile. Moose, Jay Lethal, and Cobb would be high on their list.
Also NWA Power is the best new thing since Lucha Underground.

After the way he's been booked... Well when he's actually been booked I don't really blame him. Originally Posted by master of read

Yeah I think Sinclair needs to sell the company out to Anthem , create a deal where they can air a syndicated 2 hour show with the purchase to fill the time slot and go from there. A reason I'm saying this is an article claims in 2019 business has went into the literal shitter for ROH.
https://fansided.com/2019/10/07/pro-...or-struggling/
- Live attendance is down 31% this year.
- After "Best in the World" did 3,500+ PPV Buys in June ...in September "Death before Dishonor has done ...800+ PPV buys. Its a drop that was over 71% .
- The ROH deal with New Japan is done as far as a working relationship goes.
There has to be serious questions on what happens with ROH moving forward into 2020."The story so far: As usual, Ginger and I are engaged in our quest to find out what the hell is going on and save humanity from my nemesis, some bastard who is presumably responsible." - Sir Digby Chicken Caesar.

So he originally asked for his release from the company and later had a meeting with Vince McMahon. Where he changed his mind.
Which as Prichard joked is Vince can sell you on something and not really make things better. That many guys will walk out of meetings and within a week realize after a nice high of , hey he listened. Then realize nothing has changed. He said Varlito and others had this meeting with Vince and thought , oh hey ok this is great. Then realize how they got sold by Vince on something that didn't happen.
Carlito would months later get his release finally after he requested it again."The story so far: As usual, Ginger and I are engaged in our quest to find out what the hell is going on and save humanity from my nemesis, some bastard who is presumably responsible." - Sir Digby Chicken Caesar.

Whatever happens I hope it doesn't involve WWE snatching up yet another tape library for it's nigh-monopoly on pro-wrestling's history. Originally Posted by SUPERECWFAN1

Its why I was hoping Anthem makes a move on it. They can use some of the talent and the syndication market Sinclair has . Originally Posted by wjowski
