Sad on many levels about the ROH news
— Lenny Leonard (@WWNLennyLeonard) October 27, 2021
The ROH i worked for was gone long ago, but a lot of the people weren’t
In working with this new ROH team this summer I saw a lot of hard working & talented people who loved that place the way I did during my time there
I feel for them all
ROH Final Battle will still take place on December 11. Fightful will continue to update this story as more is known.
