? As we previously reported, HDNet sent Ring of Honor a television proposal on 1/7. The potential deal would most likely include a weekly Saturday night time slot on the network. The deal would see HDNet picking up the tab for all production costs, which would mean Ring of Honor would use HDNet cameras. As a result, HDNet would not pay a license fee. The word is that both sides are "hammering out details".
? The December 26th Philadelphia show was the first night that Austin Aries was in charge backstage. The night saw him blow up at Tyler Black and then have an argument with Jimmy Jacobs. The three eventually calmed down and talked things out.
? The company is considering bringing in more veterans to the roster, including some talent recently released by WWE.
? ROH tapes their "Caged Collision" PPV on January 31st, which will feature a 5 vs. 5 Steel Cage War match.
? Christian Cage has had no talks with ROH and is definitely WWE bound. ROH was never even an option for him.
