From what I've seen and heard, it's more of Impact's parent company that is looking to buy ROH, impact the company has like nothing to do with this. The parent co. Would cherry pick the roh guys and slide them into Impact. Plus, maybe, this gets Impact on more tv's with roh's current time slots? Roh is on a ton of spots, and i would rather see a 1 hour impact show than a 2 hour one TBH. I don't think Sinclair broadcasting is interested in selling when they just got more networks to get their show on. You wouldn't just buy ROH because there's no stars there outside of Lethal and Cobb (certainly not Taven the anti draw), and the briscoes, but you can't put them on TV like that because of Jay's stigma. But then again...I can see why you want to dump the product when it's as devoid of draws than it's ever been.

Grandpa Shamrock lookin real jacked baby. Can he still go? I can't believe this man is 55yrs old and looking like that. There was something about the match at BFG, like it felt too "rehearsed". But Shamrock didn't look so bad in it.

I haven't been this excited for an episode of Impact in a long, long time. This whole 80's spoof thing looks really good.

It's been hilarious watching the marks try to yell at impact for "ripping off" the NWA. Like they don't get this is a one off theme episode and I love it. They're totally worked. And this show is gonna be so dang memorable, I am PUMPED!

I saw Ethan Page was polling how many would sub to impact plus if they made that a weekly show exclusive to the network. I'd do it. Then again, it might lose it's lustre and be better suited to a 1/year special.
