Ring of Honor, dont les émissions hebdomadaires sont présentées en syndication (sans réseau national), vient de frapper un grand coup.
Le réseau de télévision américain, qui diffuse depuis le début de l’année des émissions de la TNA, dont “Impact Wrestling”, diffusera dès le 3 juin des épisodes de Ring of Honor.
Les émissions de ROH seront présentées à 20 h (heure de Montréal), suivies d’Impact Wrestling à 21 h.
Est-ce une bonne nouvelle pour la TNA, qui bénéficiera ainsi d’un potentiel accroissement des abonnés pour Destination America… ou la fin, alors que ROH pourrait carrément prendre sa place plus tard en 2015? À suivre…
Voici le communiqué de presse officiel.
