Deadline.com speculates that the discussions could involve a potential merger or simply parts of Tribune such as Tribune\u2019s CW stations, WGN America, or its 31 percent ownership stake in Food Network.

As much fun as it is to speculate that a potential deal could lead to ROH appearing on WGN America, it&#8217;s worth nothing that SBG purchased the Tennis Channel over a year ago. There was speculation that the network would be rebranded and could become a home for ROH, but so far no changes have been made.<\/p>\n<div id=\"prowr-1575456852\" class=\"prowr-after-content prowr-entity-placement\"><a class=\"spreaker-player\" href=\"https:\/\/www.spreaker.com\/show\/pwboom\" data-resource=\"show_id=3275525\" data-theme=\"light\" data-playlist=\"show\" data-width=\"100%\" data-height=\"340px\">Listen to \"Pro Wrestling Boom Podcast\" on Spreaker.<\/a><script async src=\"https:\/\/widget.spreaker.com\/widgets.js\"><\/script><\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Sinclair Broadcast Group, the parent&#8230;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":5,"featured_media":198,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"episode_type":"","audio_file":"","podmotor_file_id":"","podmotor_episode_id":"","cover_image":"","cover_image_id":"","duration":"","filesize":"","filesize_raw":"","date_recorded":"","explicit":"","block":"","itunes_episode_number":"","itunes_title":"","itunes_season_number":"","itunes_episode_type":"","_jetpack_memberships_contains_paid_content":false,"footnotes":""},"categories":[6],"tags":[63,1464],"class_list":["post-20646","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-roh_news","tag-roh","tag-sbg"],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v27.3 -
