Ring of Honor CEO Joe Koff recently commented on WWE cracking down on other wrestling promotions running events during WrestleMania weekend. He told Vaughn Johnson of Philly.com:
"We’ll be fine. We’ll be in Fort Worth or Dallas [in 2016]. That’s not going to become a problem, and if it becomes a problem then we’ll deal with it. Everything they do I respect. They’re in business just like I’m in business and they’re there to protect their franchise like I’m there to protect my franchise. I have no fault with that. They can’t put everything out of business. They made it a little less convenient for the fans that are going into WrestleMania weekend, but like I said, it hasn’t stopped us from selling out that show. Look, I’m purposely there when they are there because they bring in a ton of fans and they bring in a lot of international fans. “WrestleMania is our Super Bowl and if I can be near it, I’m going to be near it.”
