Ring of Honor (ROH) is a professional wrestling promotion recently acquired by Tony Khan, CEO of AEW, Chief Football Strategy Officer of the Jacksonville Jaguars and GM/Sporting Director of Fulham F.C. The acquisition, which was completed through an entity that is wholly-owned by Tony Khan, included ROH’s extensive video library dating back to 2002, brand assets, intellectual property, production equipment and more.
With more than 20 years of rich wrestling history, ROH has launched the careers of numerous AEW stars, including CM Punk, Bryan Danielson, Hangman Page, Dr. Britt Baker, Adam Cole, Samoa Joe, among others. Additional members of the AEW roster have made their mark in ROH, including the late Brodie Lee, The Young Bucks (Matt & Nick Jackson), Jon Moxley, Kenny Omega, Scorpio Sky, ReDragon (Bobby Fish & Kyle O’Reilly), Best Friends (Chuck Taylor & Trent Beretta), Jay Lethal, Christopher Daniels, Matt Sydal, Mercedes Martinez, Serena Deeb, Frankie Kazarian, Keith Lee, Eddie Kingston, Evil Uno, QT Marshall, Danhausen, Lance Archer, Griff Garrison, Thunder Rosa, Wheeler Yuta, Luchasaurus, Orange Cassidy, Ethan Page, Austin Gunn, PAC, Kip Sabian, John Silver, Alex Reynolds, Jerry Lynn, BJ Whitmer, Ace Steel and Sonjay Dutt.
ROH’s current list of champions includes ROH World Champion Claudio Castagnoli, ROH World Television Champion Samoa Joe, ROH Pure Champion Wheeler Yuta, ROH World Tag Team Champions FTR (Dax Harwood & Cash Wheeler) and ROH Women’s World Champion Mercedes Martinez. Tony Khan’s purchase of ROH signifies a new chapter in the future of professional wrestling as AEW’s meteoric rise continues to draw the youngest-skewing wrestling audience on television.

@SilencedLamb a. WWE has a lot of disappointing wrestlers but also with the schedule they have WWE's not gonna have them kill each other like ROH and New Japan lets their performers do. WWE doesn't have a back up plan or build other wrestlers just in case their big stars get injured. This whole match was Rodrick on offense while Kaz just had to sell and counter most of it. It wasn't until the last 4 Mins or so until he made a comeback and Finally hit the rainmaker! Put Kaz in a WWE main roster ring and he is sure to goof up with some C plus performers as well. Its just shows you how mediocre some of the main roster talent in WWE is. Sure matches on the indies are better, but just because they go 40+ mins doesn't make the match any better. Most of the time it's them pandering to a crowd, locked in a rest hold/submission or on the ground catching their breath. Its the characters they build that and they story of triumph that keep you as a viewer interested. You can preform all the spots in the world in a match but, whats the most important part besides the fans? The finish of the match. You can say AJ had some disappointing matches but he has a character we can all get behind and when he wins you're more likely behind him than against him, heel or face!

*4 years later* Roderick Strong is in the greatest sport's entertainment promotion in the world: *the A Show* NXT. And he's done success with The Undisputed ERA. Kazuchika Okada wins the New Japan Cup '19 and finally defeats Jay White at G1 Supercard in MSG for the IWGP Heavyweight Championship. And this is his 5th reign ladies and gentlemen. The journey of these men are incredible.

A lot of people might disagree given how WWE treats great talent but Okada is so big a superstar that WWE might agree to his demands and give him a major push Such a shame that a lot of people who watch pro wrestling haven't even heard of him or haven't seen much of him AJ Styles vs Okada or Roman Reigns or Brock Lesnar vs Okada will be a dream match at a future WrestleMania event He may even sign with AEW. His talent needs to reach a wider market Omega vs Okada or maybe him facing the likes of Danielson/MoxleyCM will be huge Best for business

That Rainmaker pose is one of those special poses - you have to have the right charisma to pull it off. Anyone else would look silly doing it, but Okada always looks God-like when he does it. Shinsuke Nakamura's pose at the ropes is another one in a similar vein
