This Saturday, TNT will air AEW Collision, and that time slot was never reserved for ROH.
Since Tony Khan’s purchase of Ring of Honor was announced 15 months ago, the promotion has hosted a handful of pay-per-views and has weekly online programming.
Khan told POST Wrestling he never considered ROH filling the Saturday slot in a recent interview.
“I think the idea of two more hours of AEW was very appealing. It meant that ‘AEW Dark’ and ‘AEW Dark: Elevation’ would be ending for now, which was a great loss for the series.”
In spite of ROH not airing on Saturday nights, Khan remains optimistic about the brand’s future.
AEW will benefit greatly from Ring of Honor in the future.”
Former AEW World Champion and ROH Hall of Famer CM Punk will return to AEW Collision this Saturday.
