Ring of Honor put out a press release this afternoon, announcing that ROH World Champion Jay Lethal, as well as Kyle O'Reilly and Bobby Fish have all re-signed with the company.

In the press release, Lethal said that there's no place he'd rather be than ROH.

"As the Ring of Honor World Champion, there is no place I would rather be. The Best Professional Wrestling on the Planet isn't a clever marketing moniker – I have re-signed with ROH to prove that I am the best professional wrestler in the world as I defend the Ring of Honor World Championship across the globe," Lethal said.

We've been told that ReDRagon will be able to retain their NJPW bookings.

Shocker and shame. I really wanted 'em in TNA. :Littlefinger:

These are new lucrative ROH deals. Similar to the Young bucks new deals. ROH has exclusivity in the United States apart from PWG. Talent are allowed to book overseas tours as long as they clear it with ROH to avoid booking conflicts, and talent that work New Japan get to continue to do that

All three of them seem like long term locks at this point in time. They've got a lot of plans for O'Reilly, Lethal has had a great reign, and they all get more chances to work in NJPW/PWG. Can't really ask for much more right now.

I should clarify what a "lucrative" ROH deal is now a days.
It's depending on the talent, 6 figures or close to it.
