I don’t think you can honestly say he killed ROH or NJPW.
ROH was floundering under Sinclair at the end due to getting poached by WWE and AEW. At least with AEW they’ve been allowed to continue, even if it’s AEW Dark lite.
NJPW isn’t dead either. They just need to focus on building new characters which is what happens to every place. They’ll be fine.
The only promotion that’s actually killed companies is ironically WWE and the UK Indies with NXT UK. Those companies weren’t bought out and repurposed, they just closed entirely.
@yomamahouce@JimmyBrackin1@Lifer_Oner The submission is actually a legit BJJ submission (varied a little because Marina isn’t actually smothering them).
@TheGhostofTedd2 @Ace109610 Didn’t one of his sons just make their debut? Feel like that’s a huge benefit and it only happened because they appeared in his final match.
@MetsFanMike92 @superzomgbbq As far as I know no one else has given notice to WWE Talent Relations that they will not be doing any WWE related work and won’t be resigning as publicly as Mick just did.
@dted9313@KJOrso It’s an old territory thing that got brought over. When a wrestler was leaving a territory it was common for them to go out on their back because they were putting over the guys who would still be there.
@Lifer_Oner That’s true and I’ll give you it does get overdone, but it does seem a bit nitpicky, especially based off who they were wrestling since the match should have been more lucha libre in flavor.
@Lifer_Oner So what’s the issue? They were showing off a bit, yes, but the flips didn’t actually take away from what they were doing in the moment. If anything it enhanced them because the display of athleticism.
@SpecificCloud@DannyTheLionGK@SeanRossSapp The big thing is if a streaming service wishes to be in the wrestling space and wants more they’ll get more. TKO isn’t going to dictate to a streaming giant who they can stream.
Absolutely AEW will probably be shopping for a new home, but yeah, Netflix isn’t about to just not honor a contract or start buying out contracts just because they already have similar programming. It would be like if they were already streaming the Premier League and got MLS rights in a buyout. They wouldn’t just stop streaming MLS just because they already have soccer programming.
@JasonCa56118031@MichaelDammit1@Fightful@TheWrap Netflix would still honor the current contract with AEW. Netflix isn’t in the business of just losing money and they aren’t going to terminate a contract that they’d have to buyout for millions just because they already have WWE.
Netflix absolutely wants to be in the live streaming business though so I could definitely see them attempting to keep AEW just to add more content in that sphere. They just wouldn’t renew the deal with them in the end if it’s not working out. But they aren’t in the cash burning business so they aren’t just going to drop them and have to pay out a whole contract without getting anything in return.

There is not one receipt that shows Obama used 376 million for the basketball court. Obama retrofitted the existing tennis court to be able to hold both tennis and full court basketball. Most likely it was privately funded and at most ran around 200,000. Stop spreading misinformation that can be easily refuted.
