Claims that WWE are secretly in talks to purchase Ring Of Honor (ROH) are false, according to Chuck Carroll of CBS.Â
A Story which went viral a few days ago after a report originated from Pro Wrestling Sheet who claimed that WWE approached the Sinclair Broadcast Group about a possible sale of ROH seemly have no merit.
Carroll notes that multiple sources have told him WWE are not purchasing ROH with one calming "there is no story here."
ROH COO Joe Koff also debunked the rumor in an interview with CBS:Â
"No. No, no, no. It’s very flattering and humbling to us. It validates what we’ve done. But let’s face it, a lot of their current competitors are ROH guys, and we have their history. So maybe the content of the backstories of Kevin Steen before he became Kevin Owens or AJ Styles’ run in Ring of Honor. Tyler Black, Claudio (Castagnoli aka Cesaro), Tyler Black (aka Seth Rollins). We have their backstory and where it began. I would think that an over-the-top subscriber is someone who is so into wrestling. The churn subscriber is going to get it for WrestleMania for free, and when their time is up, they might leave it."
