Do you think if Tony had a full roster available to him for AEW All out 2025 he would have gone head to head against WrestlePalooza. If he had the likes of Kenny, Swerve and Ospreay, he would have felt more confident head to head against WWE?
I don't. They decided to move AEW All In with their biggest show in America ever, and with close to a fully loaded roster. AEW has just learned that their audience is fine with afternoon wrestling and are capitalizing on that. More power to them. They're doin what they feel will work best for them and their audience.
Any news or rumors about ROH getting a tv/streaming(HBOMax) deal?
They have had talks over the last few years, but nothing ever materialized. There was some early interest from CW, who just wanted some sort of wrestling content. They were in on ROH, possibly NWA, and then NXT ended up capitalizing and getting a TV deal there. WBD was interested for a Friday night, 10 pm timeslot on Tru Tv for ROH, but the money wasn't enough for Tony Khan's liking, and it ended up being an AEW Dynamite replay instead.
Chances of Hirooki Goto doing the hundred hand slap in the new Street Fighter movie?
I could definitely see some pro wrestling related nods worked into the Street Fighter movie, but I think it's more likely you see Street Fighter related stuff like what you mentioned into pro wrestling. I would expect him to integrate that into his pro wrestling offense -- well, as much as possible. I don't see Roman Reigns doing spin kicks any time soon, but I could see him throwing a giant uppercut to someone who is one the top rope.

Big fan of the afternoon wrestling, makes the time somewhat reasonable when watching in the UK.

Having grown up on Saturtday afternoon wrestling I actually can't wait to see the show on Saturday, I'm sure it'll be a glorious 6 hour show... but I'm still gonna be out and out of downtown by 7. (lol I avoid it as much as I can these days)
