Harold Meij's outsting from New Japan Pro Wrestling has many wondering what that means for various partnerships the company has established. We asked about NJPW's working relationship with ROH, as at times -- specifically last year -- it looked like it had ended. While we didn't hear of specific projects, we're told that Ring...

2020-10-21 18:36:39 +0000 UTC View PostSort of fashionably late, but after Paul Heyman's media tour last week and the draft, we actually gained some information and backstage reactions regarding his run there in 2019-2020.

Well, they botched the draft yet again.
The in-ring stuff was pretty good, but that's not what matters.
