Firing a champion for speaking out about issues in the company while she's injured will in no way shape or form blow up in their faces, I'm sure.

"Fired" may be a strong term since they're not explicitly terminating her contract immediately and just choosing not to renew it, but uh--not a good look.

Between that and Hikuleo revealing some negative comments made by ROH's GM towards him, not a good past 24 hours for the company.

Everything that made ROH really good at one time is in the WWE or AEW.

Oh I'd love for them to join with NJPW of America. I know they like to keep it local but they would make enough money from NJPW to keep a similar lifestyle.

I can't imagine they are doing that much better. They didn't draw more than 250 tops at the last TV taping in Queens. And it was a really shit show.

Didn't that masked whatshername from mexico get fired for hurting the other whatshername?
Can someone explain this to someone who doesn’t follow ROH or really understand how to read twitter?
What did she originally say? Who is the guy that the email is from? How is Joey Mercury involved?
Never mind. Just read the article on the front page. Managed to make sense of it.

Would explain Juice Robinson's sudden departure from the company. At the time, he claimed those rumors about him leaving were false and he was just taking care of some NJPW commitments. Hasn't returned to ROH since then.

Wait... so that's why Taven was champ out of nowhere with very minimal effort pushing? Because "we knew he'd stay"? Underselling large, overproduced venues is somehow Flip Gordon's fault? Fire your women's champ because... reasons?? What the actual fuck is going on there???
People freaked the fuck out about a *meh* joke from Cornette, but meanwhile, the fall of Rome seems to be happening in RoH, and it is somehow under wraps... and again I ask what the fuck?!?

ROH is such a fucking mess. Vince McMahon would probably be fixing a lot of headaches by writing Sinclair a cheque.
She is still technically employed and their women's champ right now...
