It makes me really sad what Tony did to Ring of Honor. I hate that he got his claws on this promotion.
>>20138498take solace in the fact that it's nothing compared to the sadness your parents feel
>>20138498What the fuck did he do to it? It was dead in the water.
>>20138518That would be better.
The indies have been thoroughly raped at this point
>>20138498Tony Khan doesn't know how to create. Only copy and destroy.
>>20138498>ROH fades into oblivion >Triple AAA is the best it's ever been
>>20138534They got AAA a TV deal too
>>20138518He just turned ROH into AEW Part II. He took the biggest indie promotion, with a 20 year history, what at one point was considered the successor to ECW, and completely flushed that legacy down the toilet. Nobody's nostalgic for classic 2000s ROH because Tony ruined the whole promotion's reputation. It's just the rejects Tony can't even find time for on Collision.ROH would have been better off if Sinclair just shut it down and sold off the tape library. Instead Tony's kept it alive in this weird zombie state. He keeps insisting he has bigger plans for it, and wants to get it on TV, but all he ever books are heatless, random matches. Then people are expected to give a shit about ROH's 3 PPVs a year, even though none of the matches have any build, it's all just more random bullshit. ROH is seriously booked like Tony's using the TEW Auto-Booker at this point.
>>20138508>MUST. DEFEND. TONY AND AEW.Get laid
>>20138498They call Tony the Jeffrey Dahmer of Pro Wrestling because he can't stop raping ROH's corpse.
>>20138498Ring of Honor was terrible since 2008. So the majority of its existence. He just took a shitty promotion with no real lasting legacy and turned it into AEW Dark. Nothing of value was lost or gained. Shit became differently flavored shit
>>20138551the only other buyer would have been WWE who would have buried the tape library, like they've done with ECW, and would make it their developmental instead of Evolve. Which is basically what Tony did except he runs decent ppv's
>>20138718>WWE who would have buried the tape library, like they've done with ECWYou can still readily find ECW content online, and New Jack and Sandman are even in the latest WWE video game. Pretending they've buried ECW is just a blatant lie.
>>20138718They'd put matches on YouTube for free
>>20138498Why? ROH was never good.
>>20138498Roh is a fucking cancer that ruined wrestling by normalizing wrestlers being either skinny and out of shape Reddit shitters allergic to going to the gym like AIDS victim Adam Cole, fat shit Owens or filthy mussie Sami Zayn.
ROH is easily the worst current promotion. Nothing but random matches and wrestlers. It's on a service no one has. The show could be 30 minutes or it could be 2 hours. It's absolutely frustrating to watch.And the worst part is they totally need a developmental organization and could use ROH for it, but they don't.
