ROH has to do what it has to in order to survive. I've never seen ROH, but I'd rather it exists than doesn't. If they gotta piggy back for eyeballs and stay in business, they should. They're not the first to do it and they won't be the last.
Is ROH still running PPVs? I remember that first one they had.

ECW never had to piggyback of a WM,they got so big they were advertised on a Raw.

If ROH would stop holding events where WWE stays for their big weekends there wouldn't be this problem. Yep. Summerslam weekend was booked first. ROH just put a same show in the same city to try to leach off WWE's attention. It's the same thing they do at WM every year.

Piggybacking indie fed, about time the shark turns on the leech.

I'm sure ROH didn't like that Liger worked with WWE when ROH and NJPW had an existing partnership, but ROH ending their relationship with NJPW would have been cutting off their nose to spite their face. Ultimately it wouldn't have been what was best for business.

BTW, it's "Summerslam", not "Summetslam". LOL. ROH has been leeching off WWE for a couple of years now. Booking shows in the same region as WWE WM-weekend. Then you have ROH fanboys whining that WWE is trying to kill them off. Never mind that WWE.com did a long article on ROH just last year: www.wwe.com/inside/the-indie-influence-26179913If WWE was trying to kill off ROH, why would they give them this kind of attention?

Ultimately it wouldn't have been what was best for business. WWE didn't take the fight to ROH. WWE had Summerslam weekend booked long before ROH did. Are you suggesting WWE should have cancelled the NXT show after ROH decided to have a show in Brooklyn on the Saturday night? That would have been really stupid. As for the Liger thing, Liger does not have an exclusive contract with NJPW. It doesn't matter if ROH or NJPW liked that Liger worked with WWE. Liger is free to make his own bookings as long as they don't conflict with a booking he already has with NJPW. Liger could work for TNA, GFW, or Lucha Underground if he wanted.

Sure showed me. The big thing was pointing out stupidity. You responded to me by saying "bullshit", but then went on to agree with me with the rest of your post. You agreed with me completely. We both think that ROH is trying to leech off WWE when they hold cards in the same city on the same weekend. Hell, they did it a couple years ago in New Orleans.

Is your reading comprehension so bad that you can't understand that you and I are agreeing with each other? You make yourself look ever more stupid with every post you make.

There's about 4 people here that pick personal fights and insult other members rather than debate a topic.

I skim through posts, I don't go through them with a fine tooth comb looking for spelling mistakes or grammar mistakes so I can remind someone they spelled a word wrong. I mean, what kind of asshole does that?

BTW, even if you do "skim" through posts, basic reading comprehension would tell you if someone agrees with your position (like I do with you in this thread) or not.

Chris, while it's true that that article was from "last year," it's actually from February 2014, which is a year and a half before NXT Takeover in Brooklyn. And a year and a half is a very long time in wrestling. Since that time, ROH got a major television deal with Destination America, making them not so much of a small fish as they were. The ROH of today is not the same as the ROH of 12 months ago, let alone a year and a half ago. As for cancelling Summerslam, yes that would have been incredibly stupid. That's why I never suggested it. In truth, Summerslam wasn't even the competition for ROH. It was the NXT Takeover special that was promoted after ROH had already set their date and which ran at the same time and was targeting the same audience as ROH.

Taking a tongue in cheek joke as an insult an then browbeat me about "reading comprehension" lel. You deserve a Michael Jordan laugh gif.
