Tony Khan now owns ROH!!!

[Canadian Dragon]

Tony technically owns Tyler Black, Kevin Steen, El Generico, Claudio Castagnoli, etc.

thats...very true...

real talk does that mean they could potentially put those guy in a video game ? Im thinking maybe no , because owning the name doesnt not equate owning likeness? + i feel like those guys also wouldnt be getting paid for said likeness, which morally seems wrong now that im thinking about

No from what I'm aware, also Idk if ROH even technically owns the names. Just the footage from when they performed there by they used those names everywhere. Also Claudio castagnoli might just be his real name as well

Yeah I would think they can’t use them in the game. Would be cool to get some ROH Arenas however.

that makes logical sense to me as well. they can play the footage, they can refer to said people (they already could do that tbh). they could sell collections with said matches. but yeah i believe thats where it ends?

i think we'll likely get all the branding, arenas. etc. the internet creators will take care of the rest as far as missing talent at least

As far as I understand it yeah. I don't think they have to pay royalties for airing footage or anything, likewise with WWE on the network bc I think that was actually a slight controversy when the network became a thing years ago

yeah i believe that makes sense to me too. u won the footage forever unless your buying broadcast rights only. at least thats how i see it.

can we get Kobashi in the game tho? pretty please with a cherry on top?

I had no faith ROH was surviving the year with Sinclair so while it's a low bar, whatever happened even ROH closing is better than the previous ownership lol bc the content is in good hands at least. Obviously I'd want them to stay operating tho

Give ROH their Rampage timeslot.....nobody was giving a shit about that show, so people can now continue not giving a fuck about ROH TV and it's like we're 2019 normal again.

I bet Tony will put in on TruTv or NBATV just if he feels like slinging his penis around! WGN would be nice but I don’t know if it’s possible?

Pro wrestling on TruTV would be hilarious juxtaposition
