Booker T recently spent some time on his Hall Of Fame podcast to review night one of this year's AEW Grand Slam week from Arthur Ashe Stadium in Queens, New York.
During the latest episode of his official podcast, the two-time WWE Hall of Fame legend sounded off on Chris Jericho capturing the ROH World Championship at Dynamite from Claudio Castagnoli, as well we whether or not Tony Khan should run ROH as a completely separate promotion from AEW.
Featured below are some of the highlights from the show where he touches on these topics with his thoughts.
On Chris Jericho capturing the ROH World Championship from Claudio Castagnoli at AEW Grand Slam: Dynamite: "I think it's smart trying to put some light on that Ring of Honor title. I haven't heard about any Ring of Honor shows ... but if you're trying to keep that ... Ring of Honor name alive, to have the title on someone like Chris Jericho, I think it does that. I think it's important if you plan on doing something with that brand down the road."
On whether or not ROH should be run as a standalone brand by Tony Khan: "I think it would really be hard for Tony Khan to run AEW Dynamite, Rampage, and a totally different organization in ROH. House shows ... TV, as well as having a strong enough roster to be able to create different storylines opposed to the storylines you're creating on AEW Rampage, Dynamite. It would blow his freaking mind. For me personally, the brand would be scrapped and the archive would be used for AEW promo packages and what not. But as far as trying to create a ROH brand, to where you're competing against Dynamite as well as Rampage, I just think you're just putting a whole lot on your plate there and I just don't think it's possible to be honest."
