I don’t know how to feel about Ring of Honor

You can suggest that AEW’s audience is a symptom of the direction they’ve gone but I just don’t see a “pro wrestling” show getting traction in the modern landscape.

Fair opinion. I disagree and think there is an audience there. I do think AEW’s limited audience is due to its creative and presentation. I’d like to see what ROH can do with access to stars and some real capital. But Tony would probably shrivel up if ROH got more popular than AEW.

I saw an interview with Joe Koff that suggested ROH would do about 300k viewers, sometimes as much as 500k. You throw Danielson and Punk onto that show and it’s beating Rampage, at least.
