Details On How ROH Contracts Were Affected By The Pandemic, Company Gets Praise From Roster
It seems as if ROH has been good to their roster during the pandemic.
In addition to paying several unsigned freelancers who were set to appear for them, ROH hasn’t added any time to contracts even though they didn’t run shows for almost a half-year.

We’ve had a lot of people curious as to how contracts are affected by the pandemic and the lack of shows. We can’t necessarily speak to WWE outside of the releases and recent pay cuts, but we’ve had a lot of people within Ring of Honor specify to us that in addition to Ring of Honor treating them exceptionally well, that they’ve not extended any contract time after being out of action for several months. We’ve not heard of WWE doing this, either, but it should be noted that they don’t have to do it immediately, as they can extend the deals based on inactivity or injury later.
We’ve also been told that everyone in ROH was paid, whether or not they worked during their deal.
