Koff had plenty to say about the illustrious legacy of ROH as well, mentioning that it has and forever will be known as a place of excellence.

“I think I want it to be remembered with the word “legacy” in it. I want it to be remembered with the word “excellence” in it. And not only to be remembered but I want it to be spoken of with those words. What I think we're creating on a yearly, monthly, weekly, daily basis is excellent, excellent wrestling. And as long as we can continue to create that excellence, as long as we can preserve that core brand of what Ring of Honor really stands for from the wrestler's perspective, to the fan's perspective, and continue to completely surprise... What I love most about Ring of Honor and what we've been able to achieve is the element of surprise in this day of spoilers and internet everything.”

“The most surprised people in our arena on Saturday night were some of our wrestlers, and that's unheard of, but I think that's a compliment to the organisation that it's important. That it's important for us to be able to do, it's important for us to execute, but most importantly, it's important to surprise and please the wrestling fan. I think we've done that, and maybe that's our legacy.”

“It's a hard question because it's like Forrest Gump. ‘What's my legacy?’ I don't know, your legacy happens after it's over and then you take a look at that past. That's your legacy. I think what we're doing is, we're a very authentic promotion that lives in the moment of today, not concerned about yesterday. Respect the past, look forward to the future, but live for today. That is Ring of Honor.”
