Am I the only one that didn't realize Ring of Honor was acquired by a television broadcasting company?
It will be awesome to see where Cornette can take ROH with a national television audience. TNA is obviously doing a great job of killing itself, but maybe ROH could be a viable competitor to WWE on an old school ECW level. |

The tv show will almost definitely be light years better than TNA in every way. From an in-ring perspective it will also be better than WWE for the most part. Obviously the major thing lacking will be production value but given I love watching old ECW shows from 95/96, I couldn't give a shit about production values as long as the stuff in the ring is entertaining. |

Unfortunately I don't think Sinclair has a station in KC, either, but as I recall they'll be streaming the eps on their website.

Cornette posted a pretty cool update on his website about the ROH acquisition. It's hard not to get excited about its potential after reading this, and if anyone can lead a promotion back to the way wrestling is supposed to be without making it boring and slow, it is Cornette.

I think it was Meridith when my ex was there. Don't think that's changed.

Today's rumor is that Mistico is gone, and Hunico is taking over the Sin Cara character permanently. Hunico did the SD taping Tuesday, and there was talk about several potential directions to go, including a Sin Cara versus Sin Cara feud, but Mystico looks to be headed back to CMLL, although it was not announced today.
