Tony Khan Thinks It’s The Perfect Time To Take The Training Wheels Off For ROH

Tony Khan bought ROH in March, and since then, ROH Titles have often been defended on AEW programming in addition to holding three ROH PPV events. 

After the Final Battle pay-per-view, Khan announced that the company would be relaunching on HonorClub.

While speaking with Scott Fishman of TV Insider, Khan was asked what fans can expect from ROH with the launch of Honor Club. 

“As I understand it the numbers we already reached in a very short time are strong in membership and customer base. More than ever before. It’s a great value to join HonorClub right now. We’re going to be following up soon to talk about when the weekly Ring of Honor TV will launch and stream on HonorClub for sure. There are a lot of interesting partnerships and possibilities with great wrestling companies. Ring of Honor and New Japan Pro Wrestling had a great working relationship we are rekindling. We are looking to rekindle that long relationship. Ring of Honor may be in the strongest position they’ve ever been in its 20 years. It’s the perfect time to take the training wheels off,” Khan said.

Khan stated the brand has more familiarity now, following its presence on AEW programming.

“We’ve created a lot of familiarity with the brand. It’s also beneficial to both brands. For example, I had earmarked Claudio [Castagnoli] to be a top star for Ring of Honor, but when we had this mess of injuries back in June before Forbidden Door, he came to AEW. It really helped us and came in to debut with Ring of Honor. He ended up coming out a month earlier and cutting his vacation short. An example having the two companies benefited us,” Khan said.
