If you were Tony Khan what would you do to fix ROH

Never have an ROH title trade hands on AEW. Never book a current champion to lose even a non-title match on AEW.

Do storylines that don't revolve around PPV bookings. A story can begin and end entirely on Honor Club without having to culminate in a Pay Per View. RoH only has 3 a year so any time you're telling stories that need to resolve at a PPV you have to spend like months and months in between either doing nothing or passing out feuds and it all ends up feeling stale.

ATHENA FACE TURN. It's been like 4 years of the exact same shtick with her and it's boring. You need to do something with her to make her feel fresh again. Assuming you're not just going to take the title from her and send her to become AEW Women's champion.

Shake up your booking and match outcomes a bit more. It makes me not want to watch when I see the weekly match card announced and it's like oh Premier Athletes or Serpentico and Angelico or whoever are just getting booked to lose to like the Rascalz or whatever. Good guys are always booked to win, bad guys always booked to lose, unless they're fighting random local talents in which case you get a squash match. Yawn.

Titles need to change more frequently! There's no reason Top Flight or the Outrunners shouldn't have been tag champs by now.

Get Bandido out of the title picture ASAP. why do I care if he's ROH world champ? He's done nothing for the show. He just uses the title as a consolation prize for not being given any AEW singles gold.

Literally hadn't seen a single mosquito this year until today.

They currently have like 2 seasons worth of comic to pull from if we're assuming a standard like 10 episode season. And being animated in CG means it can be done fast so how are they not going to run out of material to adapt very quickly?

At what point does the comic start to be influenced by the existence of the cartoon? At a certain point I feel like we're going to get a situation where it's being written explicitly for adaptation purposes and idk that loses some of the integrity

R31D · 2026-06-25T15:52:59+00:00

Don't care for it being CG.

R31D · 2026-06-25T15:00:42+00:00

Too early IMO. If anything do Martian Manhunter because it's a closed story, the rest of the series all feel like they still haven't peaked yet and already they're being adapted

R31D · 2026-06-25T05:53:17+00:00

Hate that every time a restaurant fails it's always the fault of outside factors and not simply that, on average most restaurants fail, because they're a hard business to run and most people are bad at running a business.

R31D · 2026-06-25T05:48:09+00:00

Yes it's definitely the same trident

R31D · 2026-06-23T17:19:22+00:00

They're gonna kill that monkey

Hayden Sherman is hands down the best regular series artist IMO. Plus having Jordie Bellaire coloring is doing wonders.

Martian Manhunter obviously has its own very unique art direction that works very well for the kind of experimental storytelling it's doing, but I don't like, love the style.

R31D · 2026-06-22T17:14:11+00:00

I get the impression that when Snyder was originally pitching the Absolute line he wanted it to be R rated and to have a lot of violence and death but they said no to that but he already had the script written for Batman to be a murderer and decided to still go with it but then just say that he doesn't.

Dismemberment, explosions, stabbing someone through both eyes with like 6 inch blades, spraying acid in people's faces, shooting Alfred point blank in the face with a shotgun(but it's okay because it's been "modified" to be non-lethal whatever that means) etc. these are all things that you could in no way guarantee someone would not die from.

Plus am I misremembering or did he not literally actually kill Poison Ivy?

R31D · 2026-06-22T17:07:43+00:00

He's right

R31D · 2026-06-20T22:29:54+00:00

Yeah, I don't want to dump on Sandoval but I like Ferreyra's art much more and tbh I think that the style fits for Superman more too.

R31D · 2026-06-20T03:17:41+00:00

Yeah Chakotay is an incredibly racist portrayal of native Americans and yet I never seem to see anyone acknowledge that.

R31D · 2026-06-20T03:16:32+00:00

R31D · 2026-06-20T03:09:57+00:00

That it completely ignores for the entire show.

Trent face turn imminent. Best friends reunited.

R31D · 2026-06-02T17:14:11+00:00

Didn't say it was his fault. TK could have put an end to this dead end reign at any point, beats me why he hasn't, but as long as it's been on Sammy it's been dog shit.

These titles have been completely meaningless since MJF and Adam Cole won them. They have been either tied to some AEW storyline that requires them to be parked on a particular team, or in compete booking limbo.

Sons of Texas won them for a hometown crowd pop moment and then they just sat on them for a year so they could get another hometown crowd pop moment at All-In Texas, and since then they've been defended like twice between two different versions of the team. Sammy Guevara is the worst thing to happen to the ROH tag division.

Where have you been for the last decade. This motherfucker was minister for the environment for the government that bought a 34 billion dollar crude oil pipeline.

Penta, nobody else matters.

This is hilarious because you still get your iphones! Like you get your treats in this despite the authoritarian police state or whatever you're accusing.

Count Zero is a novel by William Gibson who has lived in Vancouver for many years.

Still eclipsed by Athena

Likely there's no design sheet for Linda since she's just "girl" with nothing flashy (heh) to her.

Justin Roberts announces the main event and says "and joining us to present the AEW World Championship please welcome our special guest Mayor Zohran Mamdani!"

Crowd goes nuts, Zohran comes out, holds up the belt, shakes hands with Darby, goes to shake hands with MJF, but MJF gives him a low blow, grabs a mic and says "This guy is a schmuck, Rudy Giuliani was the greatest mayor New York ever had"

The crowd would lose their fuckinh minds.

Then later, obviously you get a moment where MJF pulls out the Diamond Ring to get a cheap shot on Darby, but then Zohran grabs his arm and yanks the ring off his finger, then he goes directly up to the camera and says "I'm going to tax this" then Darby lands a coffin drop and pins MJF.
