Would love to but right now it is problematic due to a promotion having veto power on a key building we wish to run. It happens. We’ll get to ATL… just going to take a little longer. https://t.co/Wl4meWAh1l

– IMPACT Bound For Glory will cost $39.99.
– Women of Honor Champion Kelly Klein knows nothing about ROH and IMPACT working together.
I don’t know anything about rumors. But the cool thing with wrestling is it’s very fluid and at any time I could see any number of people coming through ROH. I have faced many of the women on the current Impact roster and would be thrilled to face any of the rest. https://t.co/bkpTJTCPse
