For at least the next 2 weeks, ROH will NOT be airing in it's usual 8 PM time slot. No word on this being permanent, but it doesn't take an expert to figure out this does not bode well for ROH on Destination America...
Really wish Sinclair would invest some cash into an ROH Roku channel and be done with this nonsense of trying to obtain and then maintain a television deal.

from what I've seen, it's permanent. Viewership is down quite a bit already.

According to MLW on Twitter, there was a meeting with talent and crew at Ring of Honor about losing the 8 p.m. time slot on Destination America. Apparently they were told that it's a test to see how original programming will do in that slot and ROH will be back in that slot in a few weeks. Hope this turns out to be the case... |

If the numbers for the new show are better, I wouldn't hold my breath.

This might just be a temp thing until September when RoH can take the Impact spot. There is a part of me that thinks TNA is going to WGN then. Rumors are that last year when their Spike deal was ending WGN was interested but wanted to wait to the fall. TNA did not want to be dark till then. So it is possible their deal with DA was always looked at as a temp thing. If they did real good they might stay but if not they might leave and go to WGN in the fall. Either way I hope TNA and RoH can keep going strong. TNA needs more help to rebound but as I have said before they might have overshot where they should have been for a couple years and now they are closer to where they should be for being around only 15 years. RoH has been going on a more realistic pace.

I am not sure "where TNA should be at" but the brand is very damaged, and the leadership keeps making if worse. Another network will likely offer less money than DA. TNA has really got themselves in a mess. I only feel bad for the wrestlers and production staff. No sympathy for Dixie, Ryder, Big. John, or the various nit wits that have been in charge.
