to me it feels like roh during the tk era is nowadays not as huge lol like it was during the old days before the aew tk era when back then roh used to have monthly ppv events like not all 12 months a ppv but like every few months there was a ppv event plus roh had shows at only the smaller arenas like ecw used to do in the 90s plus in roh there was many title changes short reigns and or long reigns doesnt matter and also there was many multi time champions like briscos style and oh ya also there was definley buttloads of title defenses and title matches

nowadays during the aew tk era you rarely see many title changes long reigns and or short reigns and there was not many multi time champions and there is rarely monthly roh ppv events and how often do you see buttloads of title defenses and title matches

Athena has defended her title 32 times. With how long she's had the title, that breaks down to 1 a month on avg.

i guess if you count gauntlet matchs lol best out of series matches and 24 7 matches lol

Huh? What the fuck are you talking about?

So I guess it's actually 31 defenses. One of these was her winning. But 31 over 32(almost 33) months is pretty great.

Every match is there. Some months she didn't. But some months she did multiple defenses. Which did help with the avg, as she did go like 5 months one time without defending it. But 500 defenses in 1000 days is dumb as fuck to ask for.

Hulk Hogan math, dude. Like the extra days he gathered to wrestle by traveling back from Japan.

I'm guessing this is where I should post this but I'm watching an old show from 2017 when ROH did a tour - this card is nuts and seriously the bullet club and the top Japanese stars! I love AEW but they killed this market

In my opinion, it was gonna die. ROH management was fumbling hard and that partnership was propped up almost entirely by NJPW and Bullet Club. Anything's possible but I believe the hype was gonna dry up eventually regardless, especially once the pandemic hit and the economy in Japan took the hit that it did. Highly unlikely that core group of guys would have stayed together anywhere else besides AEW and I shudder to think how things would have turned out if that whole core had ended up in WWE. I really doubt there's a better outcome than AEW coming about and continuing the legacy of that iteration of the Bullet Club, continuing to partner with NJPW and regularly, to this day, putting out matchups that feel special and almost unimaginable a few years ago.

AEW is still the best thing the happened to wrestling - it's fun to slag off the bucks but what was the alternative? WWE bloodline lol and I'm sorry but Reigns is just as crap as ever - he is shit and always has been . Vince always wanted to make one more star - he isn't a stone cold or Rock - he is just a loser
