Rumors have been flying for weeks about the possible sale of TNA Wrestling. F4WOnline reports that a new development has occurred, which has put the owners of Ring of Honor in play.
Ring of Honor owners Sinclair Broadcasting have also been surrounded in rumors that they’ll be re-branding the Tennis Channel as the American Sports Network. With that, they’ll likely be expanding their sports content, and Ring of Honor could fit well in that programming schedule.
According to Dave Meltzer on Wrestling Observer Radio that Sinclair Broadcasting has shown interest in acquiring TNA. The main attraction as it pertains to TNA for Sinclair is that they have a large tape library, and have international TV deals already in place.
A big hangup on the sale continues to be that Dixie Carter is still hoping to retain majority ownership in the company. There have been negotiations with Aroluxe, but no sale has been completed as of yet.
As of now, the Tennis Channel has clearance in 40-50 million homes nationwide. Recently, Ring of Honor Joe Koff mentioned that there’s a possibility that ROH TV could also expand to two hours of TV time per week.

ROH wrestler Roderick Strong tells Pro Wrestling Sheet he plans to honor the memory of his recently deceased friend, who sadly took his own life Sunday, by raising money for PTSD support.
Strong’s longtime friend/former roommate Dustin Yates — a big wrestling fan who was also named after Dusty Rhodes — struggled with PTSD following his time in the service, and Roddy says he’s hoping to help others battling with the disorder before it’s too late.
The triple crown champion says he’ll either be launching his own foundation soon or participating in a yearly charity in conjunction with an already established PTSD organization.
For now, any donations can be made to the GoFundMe page setup by Yates’ friends.
Roddy adds, “He was a great soldier but an even better friend. His love for his family matched the love for his country. He served with such pride. He will be greatly missed.”
