Anyone who has seen the new ROH yet, does it feel like a different show than just another AEW show? Everyone is talking about a possible brand split for the new show, but they don't seem to have much of one for this and it could probably have used one for more of a reason for folks to watch. it reminds me to much of WWECW where it’s taped right before(or after?) Dynamite with the same stage, ring ropes and such. Fun show but doesn’t feel much different from the other AEW shows

They go on their own attempted tour Otherwise them having tapings with Dynamite only makes sense when you're trying to sell the product to the most people you can and big live audiences will do that.

The Iron Savages would make good ROH Tag Team Champions.

Be nice if they at least would take the time to change the ropes when taped with AEW.

Although she's doing a great job as champ, I wouldn't be opposed to Athena losing one of those Proving Ground matches, every now and then, whether it's due to overestimating her opponent, being counted-out, or an upset/roll up.

Athena and Lance Archer are the best in the business at squashing jobbers. Just awesome stuff again by Athena this week.

People should go out of their way to see Athena/Skye Blue. Fantastic stuff.

I haven’t seen this week’s episode yet, but as I said in another thread Kiera Hogan looked really impressive the last few weeks, seems like she’s upped her game and is just moving around the ring with crispness and confidence. She’s got lots of personality, so this could end up meaning pretty big things for her.

So, Athena and Kiera was excellent, but again, you've got 12 other matches on this week's episode? For what?
I must reiterate, why isn't ROH on Honor Club taped like Rampage? 3-4 matches with the odd in ring segment and backstage promos and interviews. You don't even have to edit down to whatever Rampage has to be, you could run a bit over or whatever.
Look, deep down we know that this iteration of ROH exists to make up for Dark and Elevation going away, but the bloat is ridiculous. I get that you have this massive roster and you want everyone to get a chance to wrestle, but... maybe the roster shouldn't be this massive?

My problem with ROH is that Tony Khan seems reluctant to turn it into a Developmental league. It should be used to create future stars, not just have talent that don't fit in Dynamite or Collision.

Having two six match shows is a hell of a lot more palatable than one twelve match one and it gives you an extra show worth of a selling point for the service.

You could definitely do 'ROH on Honor Club' with the main players and storylines and 'ROH: Elevation' with the lower rung guys and a 'get as many people having a match' mentality. The current format is so viewer unfriendly
