What if Rampage and RoH merged in 2024? (self.SquaredCircle)

Rampage has become the "C" show and RoH is "developmental" that's only available on a streaming app.

With the TV/Streaming deal coming up in 2024 it makes perfect sense to merge these two, and brand it as a 2 hour show. I feel like the biggest issue with RoH is that it's AEW...but not. So you see some people show up, but if you want to follow them you need a subscription. A streaming app for a single weekly TV show with a subscription can be a hard pill to swallow for a lot of people, especially considering RoH doesn't have that type of presence.

Keep the titles as RoH, find a way to keep the name and preserve the history, but take all the good from RoH and Rampage I think you could have a banger of a 2 hour show. Follow the early NXT/Takeover playbook and you could have a killer developmental show that isn't the "C" show, but the chance to catch the up and coming talent and the beginning of feuds that could last years across all three shows over time.

I wouldn't mind this at all, especially if they treat it more like a "development" brand. That's what made Dark/Elevation so great in my eyes: seeing young talent get their reps in and improve over time.
