In a new interview with TV Insider, Chris Jericho gave an update on Ring of Honor potentially landing a media rights deal.
Dave Meltzer reported in November that ROH was close to finally agreeing to a TV deal. That deal has still yet to be reached, but Jericho confirmed to TV Insider that Tony Khan has a couple of potential streaming suitors. Jericho said he doesn’t know if those are offers Khan wants. He thinks Khan wants to try and expand those offers.
“I think the fact Tony Khan put the title on me again is because Chris Jericho as the Ring of Honor World Champion, streaming platforms might pay more attention to it. I know Tony is working on that and has a couple of offers,” Jericho said. “I don’t know if they are offers he wants. I think he wants to try and expand those offers. I’m a thousand percent sure that he will continue to work to get a streaming deal because when he sets his mind on something, he usually makes it happen. He has invested fully in the Ring of Honor brand and product. I have no doubt there will be a bigger platform for Ring of Honor at some point.”
ROH has a weekly TV show that airs on HonorClub with ROH pay-per-views also available for those who subscribe to the service.
Jericho is currently in his second reign as ROH World Champion. He’s held the title since October 2024.
Outside of the ring, Jericho has a starring role in the horror movie “Dark Match” that premieres on Shudder on January 31.
