One of the worst things that happened to AEW was the integration of ROH. ESPECIALLY the titles. Suddenly, everyone had a title and when everyone has a title, your “big” titles start to mean less and less. Eric is right, it diluted their brand. Lose the AEW tag team titles? Just go for the ROH ones!

The ONLY value ROH had was the tape library. That's why WWE's offer was so much lower than TK. Because they understood the ACTUAL value of the asset. TK's belief that he could run TWO wrestling promotions essentially MOMENTS after starting the FIRST promotion was the clearest sign that he was at worst delusional, and at best dangerously naive.

This is why I keep saying, AEW has an identity problem! What is the purpose of ROH? What is the purpose of dynamite? What is the purpose of rampage? What is the purpose of collision? Four different shows with no identity that separates them whatsoever. When you look at WWE, you can tell me the difference between raw, SmackDown, and NXT! Without a whole Lotta thought. And what championship means to their specific brand. AEW/ROH, can’t do that.

Purpose of ROH is to get those wrestlers something to do who Tony has signed out of ego and greed. Anyone saying extra revenue or development is high on Meltzer's koolaid, and naive. It's not developmental, because most of the Roh roster is in their 30s and 40s. It's not bringing revenue because they tape it before collision taping, and Honor clup has less than 10000 subs. The money they're making it from is nothing compared to what they're paying the talent to have those matches on Roh

Yes, I agree with Eric he needs to treat them like a separate company, like someone mentioned you get 2 shows for one ticket: Collision has ROH and Dynamite has Rampage. WWE does that with Main Event and Level Up but they aren't trying to make those into main shows. You need sell tickets to tapings or streaming shows of ROH not just for the PPVs cause then it's not bringing in anything just splitting all the cost on AEW.

@@thesupervisor3270 ^ this is the case, and it baffles me that people question the decision to move away from the "Black and Gold" identity. Up until it lost the ratings war to Dynamite, NXT was specifically booked as the "smark show". Snatched up every indy/Japanese darling that became available and won the hardcore crowd over that way. Then AEW arrived and beat NXT Black and Gold at its own game. All the indy darlings started signing there instead, so WWE ended up throwing in the towel and made NXT into what it was originally supposed to be- developmental with new, young talent instead of 40 year olds from the indies, New Japan, and TNA. Yeah, 2.0 and current NXT might not have the same match quality as Black and Gold, but the constant notion that it was a mistake or "Vince being out of touch" makes no sense. The Black and Gold audience left when AEW started. There was no winning with that approach.

Remember when the WWE integrated ECW?

ROH was dead when he bought it. He would have been smart not to buy it, because in all actuality he already has a developmental brand that sucks and its called AEW.
@zeromagnum2811
@zeromagnum2811 6 месяцев назад
The reason that failed was ECW fans in general as they wanted the original ECW which was dead. So it was going to fail because it was never going to be the OG Ecw which is what was wanted of it. Once WWE noticed it wasnt going to work they moved on from it. Because that is what business minded people do. Vince at the end of the day is a business man that happened to be in the wrestling entertainment business. AEW lost its identity when Cody left. Because he was the heart of AEW he was the face of it when it started. And they have never recovered from that. Punk came in and was trying to be the man and tell them how to do things and the egos that had been there didnt like it and they eventually made him blow up and he handled it all wrong and everything that happened happened. As a long time fan of wrestling since 1993 I got a good grasp on how certain things work on the wrestling side of it all. AEW has no direction, no long term plan for creative direction. They have no identity because of ROH and incorporating New japan and triple A and impact like they have. Nothing against those brands they are putting their talents on a national tv market to expose their product and talent. They dont care about AEW really. They are using them to get exposure for their brand. And Tony Khan is the rich mark that wants to book it all because of his smart mark fan back ground. I could do the same thing if i had his money to play with. But while i know wrestling well enough to write down matches and storylines. I could not run the business end of it and manage everything that goes into TV and marketing ect. For tony its the opposite he is booking matches for the sake of matches booking for himself for that young mark in his head that grew up watching it. So he draws other marks like himself while all the casuals watch WWE because the wrestling elitist booking doesnt appeal to them. And that is why they cant compete with WWE. It doesnt matter how many 25 minutes matches they put on or what names they buy to put on the show its not going to draw anything but the wrestling marks that will watch anything wrestling. And specifically mostly the anti WWE marks that decided they want to hate Vince mcmahon or WWE for whatever reason. You could potentially justify Ring of Honor being there, but only if it is its own thing and mostly kept away from the AEW shows aside from occasionally doing a super show event. But overall Bischoff is right because ROH is dead roadkill. Only marks care about it at all or know any of its history. So its not going to draw. Its a waste of resources. And AEW itself has damaged its own brand so badly that not even Adam Copeland can draw for them. People tuned in and saw them job Bryan Danielson to Hangman page a while back and that let you know that they have no idea what they are doing. You bring in a star like him soon after he main evented Wrestlemania with Edge and Reigns and the first thing you do is establish that he cant beat a glorified midcarder like Hangman Page. I realize they were trying to build him as their champion but that was Bryan Danielson and they killed him out the gate with that booking and sucked all momentum out of him. I lost all faith in AEW at that moment. Everything that happened after that just proved my lack of faith in them right. Everyone that they have on that roster that is a legit draw with the exception of MJF was built in other companies. And the reason MJF is over is he got himself over. AEW doesnt know how to get people over. It knows how to bury them with bad creative that is not intentional burial.

I’ve just never fully grasped what Tony’s vision has been with the relaunch of the ROH as a running brand outside of it just being a passion project. I could’ve possibly seen the allure if the acquisition from Sinclair had come with a multi year TV commitment that the show would have a place on the Sinclair channels for a number of years that would allow the thing to operate and then possibly be marketed for a true media deal later. But relaunching it and adding the cost to produce the content and maintain a roster for the brand that airs on a streaming platform that also adds expense to maintain and has a low subscriber count that isn’t driving anything near the revenue to substantially lessen the added costs of keeping it operating. But even more it doesn’t really make sense to be appealing because it doesn’t bring any add on consumers to grow the primary brand since it’s a much smaller product that your existing fan base is probably already a consumer of anyways. And it’s hard to see why you’d be investing the assets and time to produce PPVs for that brand that provides an immensely smaller potential return on those assets than if those assets were focused on the primary brand. Im not sure the cost comparison between putting on an AEW PPV versus a ROH PPV but if they’re anywhere close then it really doesn’t make much sense. The upside tor a ROH PPV isn’t even close to their normal performance for AEW PPVs. When a ROH show does buys in the 20K range it’s been record breaking for the brand, while being sold at a lower price point than an AEW PPV, and as we see with this one upcoming sells nowhere near the tickets either. If the cost to produce the show is comparable to the cost for an AEW show I just don’t see the appeal at all. If the investment is close why would I do that for a show that may do 25K buys and 3K in tickets when that money going into an AEW show is going to bring over probably at least 5K in tickets and 100K in buys and bring multiples in revenues. Just don’t understand it I guess in a financial metric view I guess

Tony is not a good business man supposedly the CW wanted ROH on their network but he wanted to wait for Warner and now they may ditch AEW for RAW. Idk why he thinks if he kisses up to them it would entice them to offer him a big deal only thing that matters is ratings to them which they are failing at. but his big plan was seeing what WWE is getting and thinking he could get close to them tv deal money wise which is pretty laughable. He may not even get the same offer he got last time since they have been going down ratings wise year over year.

Tony could have bought ROH, used its past library for streaming and taken one of its titles and used it in place of the all Atlantic/international title for nostalgia purposes and been all the better for it. It has its place in history as many great stars of the past and present made their name in ROH but it serves ZERO purpose now and actually hurts the ROH legacy. It’s kind of funny/sad but AEW grew from the late 10’s indie boom, and in many ways is responsible for the sad shape of the indies today. So many wrestlers that should be out traveling and gaining experience working with each other on the indies are now tied up doing all of jack shit on AEW or AEW-ROH.

Harsh judgementts but spot on by Mr.Bischoff. It is a fact that AEW was at its best when they had the one show, Dynamite, and it was a laser focused effort to build the brand, AND IT WORKED. Then Tony managed to get another TV spot and they created Rampage, that marked the beginning of the decline, because, if your memory serves you well, you will remember the first Rampage shows were loaded with all the main eventers and Dynamite was almost an afterthought.

Tony is a mark with deep pockets of his dad, and he wants to sign as many people he can to self validation. And when they complain about not being on TV, he gives them shows like Roh and more fake titles. But when those shows can't draw more than 1000 people, he puts Danielson and FTR to sell 500 more tickets, but in the end damaging their drawing aura. Why Bucks or Moxley are not on it?

I totally understand the point that Eric was making here. At this point, Ring of Honor is essentially another AEW show. It is adding several more belts to AEW tv, which makes the AEW belts less meaningful, due to the number of people carrying belts on AEW tv. Because storylines are carrying over back and forth from both shows, it is stretching everything out even more than it would have been otherwise. That doesn't even take into account the fact that several AEW talents have been injured on ROH shows that nobody watched. For ROH to have any chance, it must be kept separate.

Roh has been positioned at the wrongest place possible. Instead of being either a developmental brand or a 2nd and equivalent brand to dynamite, having their titles exclusively on collision let's say, it has been presented as a lesser main brand. It's like tony has been postponing deciding what he wants it to be, and I think at this point the decision won't matter anymore.

I full agree with Eric's assessment, especially when it comes to separating rosters. ROH has to be its own thing so that AEW can be its own thing. I get that TK maybe wants to push his stars to the PPV so that people can buy more tickets, but that doesn't work in the long run, and sure as hell it hasn't done so to this day. With that said, everything is good in moderation. Conrad is correct in stating that NXT grew thanks in large to incorporation of Smackdown and Raw stars with time. But that should only happen once ROH is allowed to be its own thing. Right now, no casual wrestling fan understands what ROH is, and why should they? Their titles get defended on other shows, so why should I tune in to that show in particular? MJF and Cole won the tag championships, and still people didn't really care. Why? Because ROH is being built like AEW-lite, nothing more and nothing less. Sometimes I wish people would just talk some sense into Tony Khan about this, because most of this is just trivial, trivial to me at least.

Tony completely F'ed up ROH from the start. He brought in random ROH matches to Dynamite and people carrying ROH titles and who knows what wrestlers were where - Dynamite, Collision, Rampage, ROH. All way too confusing especially when he books so many matches that are just random as well with no story backing them. Rampage should've been 100% ROH roster only and ROH should've become the "NXT type" development production once Collision was created. I'd prefer distinct rosters for Collision and Dynamite too so I know where not to see OC at or where I can guarantee to see certain wrestlers. If this all sounds very WWE, who cares? They have a model like that for a reason - it works and makes $. Should be AEW Dynamite with Roster 1, AEW Collision with Roster 2, and ROH Rampage with Roster 3. The last thing I would have done is that the women's divison is so weak I would have put ALL the AEW women on Dynamite along with the gimmic kinda guys like OC, Jungle Joke, Young Bucks, or Jon Moxely - that would give Dynamite the unique feel for the indy types that you could only get there. Collision would be your best WWE type impression with guys that actually look like wrestlers and want that style. You then have 3 distinct rosters with 3 distinct feels to them. You could have the 1 hour of ROH Rampage be the opening for Wednesday Dynamite so it is essentially on 2 day tape delay but takes place in front of a live audience. This stuff seems so simple but no... AEW world champ can float feuds between Dynamite and Collision. The rosters: AEW Dynamite (with Trios Champs, Women's Champ, and International Champ): Jon Moxley, Bryan Danielson, Adam Cole, The Acclaimed, Chris Jericho, Daniel Garcia, Darby Allin, Hook, Jungle Jack, Jeff Jarret, Matt Hardy, Young Bucks, OC, Sammy Guevarra, Sting, Wardlow, women's roster etc... AEW Collision (with TNT Champ, Tag Team Champs): Samoa Joe, Christian Cage, Adam Copeland (Edge), Adam Page, Andrade El Idolo, The Gunns, Big Bill, House of Black, Jay White, Juice Robinson, Kenny Omega, Kill Switch, Konosuke Takeshita, Malakai Black, Miro, Pac, Powerhouse Hobbs, Ricky Starks, Swerve Strickland and then finally the ROH Rampage Roster with (ROH World Champ, ROH Women's Champ, ROH tag champs) - Brian Cage, Ethan Page, Eddie Kingston, Jay Lethal, Keith Lee, Mark Briscoe, Wheeler, Yuta, all the developmental men and women in the pipeline. This isn't a complete list but you get where I'm going. Each show would feel unique and you would know where to go to see certain wrestlers and storylines week in and week out. The PPVs are a bit trickier to integrate but I'd say you still keep AEW as one PPV and ROH as another just like WWE does with main roster and NXT.

While Eric isn't perfect he is right other than Tony watching ROH for years and not wanting it to go away I can't even see ROH being bought as a developmental brand because much of the wrestlers that AEW has and hires don't think they need to improve what they have already. But even if Tony bought it as a counter to NXT it's still wasn't a great move because AEW has a hard enough time marking their main show work why bring another show in at that point. Unfortunately Tony I think starts out with good ideas but either do to not having the full picture or just having an idea and not a plan we see it go off the rails relatively fast.

You can't get any interest in ROH. What made ROH so good was it wasn't on television. You could only see it by attending shows, buying DVD's, and a few matches on YT. Once it gets to tv it has to change. Tony basically killed that promotion when he formed AEW. Just having the nostalgia and invoking all the good stuff that came out of it isn't going to be enough to bring not just an old school ROH fan, but a 39 year fan of wrestling overall back to the product when it sucks. I got 73 events on DVD if I want to watch ROH when it was good.

Instead he booked AEW against WWE. The intergration is weird. ROH should be the WCW/ECW/Smackdownn to AEW's RAW. ROH & AEW champs should HATE each other. Collision should be a joint show pitting the promotions against each other. Punk Samoa Joe Kingston BCC FTR Ricky Starks could've carried and elevated ROH
