WWE Hires ROH's Chris Resnick For Revamped WWE Network
Former Ring of Honor director and producer to assist with WWE Network programming.
As WWE continues to look at ways to tweak and improve its WWE Network, the company has moved to hire Chris Resnick in a full-time capacity.
Resnick was previously employed by Ring of Honor for eight years, and his pivotal role with ROH saw him serve as the director and producer for ROH’s PPVs and weekly TV programming.
According to PWInsider, Resnick gave notice to ROH officials this past Thursday - and he'll now be used by WWE to help with the company's WWE Network content.
With WWE looking to roll out a three-tier version of WWE Network within the next year – hopefully by the end of 2019 – many are speculating that WWE may now finally be adding certain independent promotions to its WWE Network programming.
Previously, there have been rumblings that promotions such as EVOLVE, IWC, and Progress Wrestling may become a part of a higher-priced WWE Network product. And given that Resnick worked on over 400 ROH TV episodes, he certainly has the experience needed to assist in a variety of ways should WWE indeed now be serious about adding non-WWE action to the WWE Network.
Not only was Chris Resnick tasked with directing and producing ROH content, he also worked on many of the video packages that Ring of Honour put out during his stay there. Again, this showcases further skills that make him a no-brainer of an appointment by WWE.
