Ring of Honor may soon be rivaling WWE and TNA in the TV stakes with its own women’s division, reveals Queen of Wrestling, Sara Del Rey.
Speaking to Diva Dirt exclusively on last night’s episode of DD360, Sara spoke about her current status with ROH and recent discussions with the company, including the prospect of a new Women of Honor division next year as part of ROH’s new TV show under the Sinclair Broadcast Group banner.
Sinclair bought Ring of Honor earlier this year and launched a new ROH TV show in September, following the company’s departure from HDNet in April.
Following the move to Sinclair, Sara was surprised to find herself excluded from the roster page on ROHwrestling.com (the only female listed is Mia Yim), and tells us that her status with the company is up in the air at the moment.
She says: “I’d like to know as well! [Laughs] I have no idea. Once the Kings of Wrestling left, I understood I wasn’t going to be used for all the shows because mainly I was used in a managerial role. I knew that my presence would be limited in Ring of Honor. I think when I went to Japan a few months ago, I came back and I saw the new website and I was like, ‘Wow, that looks great!’ and then I went to the roster page and I was like, ‘Woah!’ It was just kind of a shock [to not see herself on there].”
The first ever SHIMMER Champion also reveals the exciting news that ROH may be launching a women’s division and have expressed interest in bringing her back.
The previous ROH on HDNet series featured the occasional women’s match, but a full-fledged women’s division never came to fruition.
Sara says: “Right now, they’re really starting from scratch again just re-establishing the brand and the product with Sinclair. I’ve talked to them recently and they have hopes to start the women’s division up, hopefully next year sometime, and they definitely want to include me.”
