Thank God. Now do something with him ROH.

I'm not a big Castle fan, since it feels like we've been waiting years for a breakout match. But there's no disputing he is over so it's hard to be critical of the move. Hopefully he gets something interesting to do and can step up his in ring performances.

Speaking to some of those involved they've emphasised they are completely in the dark and hope the rumour is true. So they've proceeded as normal taking bookings most of this Summer.
So we can finally get Daizee Haze in WWE... been waiting for this

One year deal? Two?

Big win on re-signing Castle. More will be on the way. I think it's only a matter of time until you hear about Adam Cole signing a new deal. He's a still on the roster page and neither he or ROH have ever acknowledged any departure. Things have gone silent with Cole for a reason.

War Machine clearly also to!d WWE to go F off. Kidani and Gedo are not going to push anybody that can leave for WWE at any time.

Bobby Fish still keeps working for ROH and he got a big win last week. He's not going anywhere.

I also saw Dijak put over ROH for drawing big crowds to shows last night on twitter. I think this is a sign that he's coming back.

Stop being silly. You've been wrong dozens of times. Will hide when wrong as per usual. So you are just trolling for the sake of it.

Spoke to a number of the wrestlers involved, their friends and indie promoters who want to book them in the future as recently as yesterday. Your nonsense implies that their situations are MUCH clearer and less ambiguous than they actually are.

Yeah, if this is what I'm thinking it is then all I have to say it's about f'n time!

Now I wonder if this includes every name that's been talked about or if the more recent contract expirations like Cole, Lio and Fish would still have to wait a little while longer.

It's bullshit. ROH are just spooked at the thought of there being a perception that anybody is defecting for NXT and they're being spiteful over people leaving. Instead of doing something more logical to stop departures like fix the issues that keep causing people to leave ROH pulls this shit to screw everybody over by alleging something that they and every other company has done as well. ROH gets away with this and everything else since there are people like Meltzer who always cover for them.

ROH and Lucha Underground are really the two worse companies for wrestlers to be tied up with today.
I think this guy is right on the money.

Not so fast. There's a long signing process yet to go. Medicals etc.

But read Friday's PWG results and the line up for their next show.

Another guy in his late 30s/early 40s to NXT.

Sort of a strange take on "developmental" if you ask me. Either way, hopefully Bobby gets paid. I'll miss him and I doubt WWE will use him well, but I wish him nothing but success.

Best of luck to Fish.... was hoping ROH could keep him, but glad he's getting a shot at WWE.

Interesting to hear Fish there before Cole/Dijak/O Reily

I'm glad this B.S. has finally come to an end. Again if ROH doesn't want people jumping ship then they need to fix the problems that keep causing people to leave instead of playing these games to screw with their livelihoods

I think a key story here is how Meltzer has handled covering this. So the words finally opened for talent to make the move a few weeks ago, yet he didn't say anything and you still got the impression that talents were being blocked. I think I know what's up.

Even though he claimed to feel bad for the talents I actually think Meltzer liked that this was going on. This allowed him to push the idea that ROH had power over WWE, as he's been on this trip all year about how WWE is going down, while others were hot and gaining power over them. He's not so anxious to talk about this since it once again shows that other people and companies can throw some stones, but WWE still ends up winning in the end.

His whole reporting of talent movements has been fishy, as he was also trying to make it come off like Maria and Mike and Crazy Steve were also being blocked. This despite the facts that Mike and Maria were signed for months and Steve was at a tryout less than two months after leaving Impact. Then there is also him claiming WWE wanted Dalton Castle and him still playing into Kenny Omega's work of teasing a jump next year.

Hey Roque11
Oh GREAT another ROH weekend, another round of backchannel Twitter rumoring. YAWN. You'll ALL see when Cole, O'Reilly, Dijak, Rush, Sonjay, and Punk re-sign, LOL!

And I thought you guys were supposed to be the VOICES of wrestling.

I guess all these things will all fall into place soon. Wish all the migrating talent the best of luck.
