    If nothings done by Final Battle, they need to move on.

    Even if it’s a YouTube show, they def need to move ROH content along.

    YT isn’t even a bad platform for it, NXT became a worldwide sensation years before it even got an actual tv contract.

    Look, I get it though, the content isn’t the issue, it’s the fact that Tony wants the show to be running at a profit off a tv contract and doesn’t want to be losing money doing it. WWE has the capital to do that, AEW’s not there yet.

    the content is definitely an issue people are tuning out due to no storylines, blatantly pandering to neckbeards, and the lack of star power.

    Both the ROH PPV’s have been really good so I think they have what it takes to succeed as a tv show.

    From the way Tony was talking at the Full Gear media scrum it sounds like WBD is waiting to see the Final Battle PPV buys before committing to putting it on one of their tv channels.

    Final Battle card is probably gonna be stacked too. Reckon Athena is winning the title off Martinez.

  • That number Sucks cause the show was great too

    WWE star Zelina Vega is very open about her anime fandom, from her various cosplays to actually incorporating elements of anime into her onscreen presentation. During an appearance on the "That's Dope!" podcast, Vega elaborated on how her love of anime had bled over into her WWE character.

    "I had Neil Kaplan, who's the English voice actor for "Naruto" character Madara Uchiha — I had him do my entrance music," Vega said. "When you hear the music start, you hear his voice as Madara saying, 'All hail the Queen, Queen Zelina,' and then the music would start."

    Vega also revealed that there was a particular way she had to sell Vince McMahon on getting Kaplan involved. The Queen of the Ring winner told McMahon it was an opportunity to connect the world of WWE with anime and gaming, but that still wasn't enough for the former head of creative.

    "'Naruto' is like the WWE of anime, and he's like 'Okay, I like 'Naruto,”" Vega continued. "So I was like 'Madura is kind of like what Paul Heyman is to Roman Reigns,' and he was like, 'We need it.'" After only a few days, the arrangement was struck, and Vega's entrance subsequently featured the voice of the "Naruto" villain.

    Vega also shared that she once asked McMahon if she could "Naruto run" to the ring, referencing the specific way the anime character raises his arms behind his back as he runs. That element of the show, however, did not wind up being incorporated in Vega's character. According to Vega, McMahon also thought CrunchyRoll, the popular anime streaming service, was a type of sushi.

    Vince is probably at home in his mansion making his way through the Pain arc as we speak.

    I mean it’s kinda needed at this point.

    Plus ROH has the talent to not be in the Dark or Elevation category.

    Not sure myself.

    Gotta say tho, the Assboys have really picked up their game in their last couple matches.

    Maybe they have their Acclaimed style come up in ROH.

    If ROH just ends up being AEW TV show #3, what is going to make people buy tickets to come to the shows every week? What is going to make people want to tune in to watch on TV? Tony is already having a rough time making Rampage a draw as it is

    Def has to make it different.

    WWE were able to do it with WWE and NXT so there’s no excuse.

    If Tony can't get this TV show done, I wouldn't be against him reverting ROH back into a touring/house show promotion that goes to more intimate venues than AEW just so it has a different vibe. Dunno how profitable that would be tho
