This way they can prove their viability as a company in order to sell high.<\/li>\n<li>This is a company that realizes that 2019 will go down as a bad year. As a result, they want to rebrand themselves as a company. The best way to do so is to put on a show that gets a lot of fans, therefore looking impressive to a television\/social media audience that is skeptical of the company. If they can put on an amazing show, with some sort of eye catching main event, the turn-around can start for Ring of Honor.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<p>I certainly hope for option #2 for ROH. We will have to wait and see how the event comes together in the next 30 days.<\/p>\n<hr \/>\n<p><em>Tyler has been a wrestling fan for 20 years. He\u2019s from Columbus, Ohio.
