Cary Silkin criticizes the way that Ring of Honor is being treated.
Cary Silkin owned ROH for several years. He remained with the company as an ambassador until Tony Khan acquired it in 2022. Speaking on his Mat Memories from Madison Square Garden podcast, Silkin commented on the current state of ROH while discussing the company’s run in the late 2000s.

“Ring of Honor of that era tried to show some respect to professional wrestling,” Silkin said. ‘Sure, we had some wacky stuff. Sure, we had the the flippy dippy do… was coming into fashion but, you know, the flippy dippy do was going on with Édouard Carpentier too.”
“Ring of Honor, there was some good pro wrestling going on in that segment of it but right now, Ring of Honor it’s like no one cares at all. I don’t care how much money Tony Khan has. It’s not being treated very well.”
Silkin previously stated that Tony Khan’s ROH had not gelled properly. Check out his comments here.
In 2022, Silkin was named the inaugural ROH Legacy Award winner. More information is available here.
