I feel like they'll need to make some card announcements soon so people know what exactly they're buying a ticket for since they don't have a roster in any real sense.

I think they might do an ROH vs. Impact theme for the show as well.

Some news on the relaunch (writeup from the Observer site):
As part of a relaunch that kicks off in April, Ring of Honor will focus on both the men's and women's World titles and the Tag Team titles.
Bryan Alvarez first reported the news on Monday's Wrestling Observer Live.
Alvarez said that the three different titles will continue to be defended in various promotions like GCW and Impact as has been the case recently and that Ring of Honor has the rights to air those matches on their weekly TV show, essentially making them "old-school touring World champions" as he put it.
It's likely to be mid-March when those matches will begin to air on ROH's weekly TV show on Sinclair.
This news also means that the Pure title, the TV title and Six-Man titles will go dormant as they will no longer be defended.

Am I the only one that finds it depressing that this company, a company that has been through a lot of shit, won't be getting a milestone 20th Anniversary show?
Are they just going to completely gloss over this and then celebrate their 21st Anniversary?

Very curious how Talent Contracts are going to look, thinking most talents will be free agents, and I assume if any sign to AEW they'll still be allowed to work ROH with them seemingly opening up their doors
A shame about the PURE title more than the others. Kinda wish Gresham would take it for Terminus if ROH doesn't want it anymore.

Well ROH did have a lot of titles.
Might as well focus on the three most important ones touring at moment.
Had Castle not lost it to Rhett I would have been a little bummed.
Rhett winning his first singles gold was a nice end to that title.
Gresham is making his original world title the pure rules title anyways. I was enjoying Woods run. But he’s not as in demand as Grisham, Brandito, Rok-C or the Briscoes.
Speaking of which was excited when the Righteous won the trios but those belts always were secondary to the tag titles since the elite left. I would have rather seen just the Righteous in Impact, as OKG are goobers and already in NWA, PCO left ROH before it closed down. But as much as I would rather seen Dutch and Bateman, OKG are bigger names and Vincent has history with them, even if they spent the last two years trying to murder each other, and who can really complain about having PCO as their heavy.

Kinda wish Gresham would take it for Terminus if ROH doesn't want it anymore. If I had to guess, looks like the MLW, NWA, Impact model. Have key deals / agreements with small core group of talent, and per show deals with the rest. Tape about one every six weeks or so. Hopefully they will still have ppvs before a day or two of super show tapings.

Putting it out there, if ROH is never gonna use their Trios Titles again, AEW should buy them and repurpose them as their own Trios titles
They have a ton of people on their roster who are former holders of the belts, The Bucks, their world champion Adam Page, Brody King who may be coming in same with the Briscoes, Cody Rhodes, you can REALLY build up these belts immediately by noting their legacy
I know that AEW's wanted to introduce Trios belts for awhile, if ROH is just ready to give theirs up, there's incentive for them to take them and run with the legacy for their company that they can benefit from. Guess we'll see what happens.

They never said they weren't and said they would be back in the spring, which surprised me why so many people were like "nah, this is it, they're done." What it'll look like is the debatable aspect. I think much like the NWA, they will have a few contracted men and women, and most will come in for a few months or a few shots, nothing long term.

I think much like the NWA, they will have a few contracted men and women, and most will come in for a few months or a few shots, nothing long term. I think it’s, understandably, not really taking the word of a big corporation (and Sinclair is a massive corporation) considering they have a tendency to backtrack on stuff and make promises they can’t really keep all in the hopes of getting good buzz. Like, as easily as announcing this show, they could say “Nah, actually we’ll be keeping the footage as content because wrestling is too expensive” (even though ROH was not a reason why Sinclair made the decision in the first place and because of other dumb decisions they made backfiring and losing money but that’s not really the thread for it). I’m very much glad to be proven wrong, though.

Officially announced for Supercard of Honor, Jonathan Gresham will take on Bandido to determine the Undisputed ROH World Champion! It’s not in writing but will typed do, "Evil Brood" Jackson Vanik?

Okay, I definitely get going with that match, I take no issue with that. But why on earth is ROH recognising Bandido as also being a legitimate champion? That part makes no sense. Jonathan Gresham is very clearly the only actual champion between the two.

Jonathan Gresham is very clearly the only actual champion between the two. Might as well look at it the way AEW's doing the Cody vs. Sammy TNT title match, "provisional champion" thing or whatever. Bandido never lost the belt, Gresham won the older belt and is still defending it, now they'll unify, etc. I realize she likely dropped the belt due to her WWE tryouts and possibly going there, but a part of me is holding out hope she's available and they do Rok-C vs. Deonna II at Supercard; I normally don't really get into a lot of the matches on Impact, but that one was pretty damned good, I'd dig seeing what they could do with 15-20+ minutes and without commercials breaking the flow.
