Posted by Larry Csonka on 11.17.2009
Lots of ROH news…
- ROH champ Austin Aries vs. Colt Cabana is set for December 5th in Chicago Ridge, IL.
- There is a lot of concern over Kevin Steen, as three doctors have told him that he needs knee surgery.
- The company is very pleased with the pre-sales for the WM 26 weekend shows in Phoenix.
- The Glory by Honor VII DVD is in the final stages of production.
- Here is the lineup for Monday's ROH on HDNet:
* ROH Tag Team champions Davey Richards & Eddie Edwards vs. The Young Bucks
* Brent Albright vs. Kenny King
* D'Lo Brown vs. Sal Rinauro
Can't say I'm overly excited about seeing Colt Cabana lose in a World Title match.........again

Why doesn't ROH put their best foot forward on TV? Why does D'Lo vs Sal get a tv spot? If they show Aries vs Colt it wuld get a much better rating and build their legitimate players up in the public eye... why do they givre us jobber matches and house shows the good stuff?

The same reason WWE builds to pay-per-view: money.

I wonder if ROH has any of those guys under contract.
They need to get back on PPV and in retail dvd stores..Maybe a one hour show on syndication as well.
Then those video game and action figure deals with start rolling in maybe a basic cable tv dealk as well..

That looks alot like what my game plan did.

Paul Heyman PAID to be on TV.Thats why they really went under.As well not paying talent on time and in full leading to the exodus of the franchise player in Tazz and their main tag team attraction in the Dudleys right after they got on TV...
Heyman was just retarded in business and extremley overated as booker.Way better than Russo but hes a writer not a BOOKer either.
He took a billion dollar idea(look at what vince did with "attitude")and flushed it.Shoulda just hired a Business type to be General Business Manager while he dealt with creative.
