10 Things That Must Be On The AEW Streaming Service

3. Ring Of Honour

Currently, Ring Of Honour feels like an albatross around AEW’s neck. Tony Khan has to squeeze ROH stars, matches and angles into an already bulging AEW television schedule. There’s scarcely room to feature half the AEW roster as it is. It was great to see Claudio Castagnoli finally secure a World Title, the current Chris Jericho story has been fun, and both Khan-led ROH PPVs were a blast, but it mostly feels like ROH has been a case of subtraction by addition.

It’s teaching a point where some fans are starting to resent all the ROH stuff getting in the way, but Tony has one ace up his sleeve. He now owns the entire ROH back catalogue. The incredible content library can remind people just how significant the brand and its stars were. Plus fans can be directed to check out stand out matches or previous feuds between current faves like Adam Cole, Samoa Joe or Kyle O’Reilly. Or even, whisper it, CM Punk and Colt Cobana.

One sticking point might be “The Voice Of The Voiceless” himself. On the one hand, it might sound ideal to be able to put out CM Punk content without dealing with the current mess he created. On the other, that situation seems to be very much still up in the air and AEW might not want to be promoting anything involving Punk right now.

Tony Khan needs to straighten that situation out one way or the other and make ROH a jewel in AEW’s streaming service crown.
