I think people who watch ROH and the number of people who watched one of LU or MLW during that span probably overlap to a very significant degree.kovs27 wrote: ↑Sat Apr 11, 2020 5:25 pmTrue.

I don’t get bein sports on direct tv and Lucha Underground was not for me. So Rey Horus is not an exciting signingkovs27 wrote: ↑Sat Apr 11, 2020 5:25 pmTrue. I forgot he was on MLW.

Re: ALL PURPOSE NEW TALENT/SPECIAL ATTRACTION THREAD
Happy to have Rey Horus on board full time, he is someone that can really develop as an undercard guy in ROH and as a flyer especially he adds something different to the overall feeling of matches. More so if we are going to see technical wrestlers come in more often, the blend of styles always works well.
Happy with the overall feeling of the tag team division, as the interplay with the characters themselves and between other teams are pretty unique. I would agree though more cemented tag teams in ROH would help a lot but when there aren't that many tag teams of a high level around the Indies building, your own isn't necessarily a bad idea.

Re: ALL PURPOSE NEW TALENT/SPECIAL ATTRACTION THREAD
That sucks for them... but if WWE didn't massively overstaff, most never would have had the job in the first place.
As for who ROH should grab, the only one that really interest me is bringing back Lio Rush, but i think he left on bad terms. I think they all can add value to the right promotion. I'm just not sure if these are the guys ROH needs.

I wouldn't mind a Kingdom reunion. Taven, TK, Mike, and Maria in a feud with Vinny's group.

They should really, REALLY make a push for Rusev.

Considering Deonna and Marty, that reunion might not happen. But, then again, if it was amiable, then yes, go for it. And doubly so for Crazy Mary, go for it!

Re: ALL PURPOSE NEW TALENT/SPECIAL ATTRACTION THREAD
Although it sucks for these performers to be out of work. I would like to see ROH stand pat. Maybe 2 or 3 of them, but in normal circumstances, they wouldn’t even give ROH the time of day. All of them can’t go to AEW. Everyone wants to be the top guy.

Re: ALL PURPOSE NEW TALENT/SPECIAL ATTRACTION THREAD
If ROH were serious about Women Of Honor (and signs point to that being the case) then Logan/Crazy Mary and Deonna are must-gets. Although I concede the Marty/Deonna situation makes her status more challenging.
Top of my list would be Lio Rush though. His 2016/early-2017 run is massively under-rated. One of my favourite parts of the company during that time period. Clearly he has his demons and can be hard to manage, and from recollection it didn't end amicably in ROH, so my hopes aren't that high.
I'd be interested in seeing Bennett/Maria back too. He isn't someone I'd necessarily bust the budget to get, but his team with Taven was fun and there is an obvious place for him right now.
Rusev would be interesting, but expensive. Surely Anderson/Gallows will either head to AEW or back to Japan. EC3 strikes me as someone Sinclair-owned ROH would go for too - again if AEW (or even Impact) aren't in the running.
What a horrible day though. These are professionals losing their jobs in unprecedented circumstances and it is heartbreaking. Spud's social media post about it is a really tough watch.
I really can't wait for some normality to return and we can all get back to moaning about Bully Ray, Delirious and Joe Koff!!

Re: ALL PURPOSE NEW TALENT/SPECIAL ATTRACTION THREAD
You hit the nail on the head. For these men and women who lost their jobs at a time where it could be over a year before they have a chance to get another job in their desired field is heartbreaking. I certainly hope everyone one of them lands on their feet.McXal wrote: ↑Wed Apr 15, 2020 4:20 pm If ROH were serious about Women Of Honor (and signs point to that being the case) then Logan/Crazy Mary and Deonna are must-gets.

Re: ALL PURPOSE NEW TALENT/SPECIAL ATTRACTION THREAD
I think Roh could be in a good position here because their owned by a t.v. broadcast company which I don't think is being hurt by the pandemic and these wrestlers that got cut are going to take any offer that has guaranteed money which I believe roh can do because
