Ring of Honor announced today that Lance Storm would be coming out of retirement to work their Toronto double shot the weekend of 7/24 and 7/25 at the Ted Reeve Arena. There's no word on who his opponents would be, but the last time he worked ROH, he was laid out by Chris Hero, but that's just an assumption on my part. The complete press release from the company reads:

It’s been nearly ten months since Lance Storm stood in front of the ROH faithful at “Northern Navigation†on July 25, 2008 where he was disrespected by Sweet & Sour Incorporated, and left Shane Hagadorn laying with a superkick. And it’s been even longer, April 1, 2006 at “Better Than Our Bestâ€, since Storm entered into ROH competition. That night it was an epic, nearly thirty minute classic against Bryan Danielson for the ROH World Title. Storm came up short in his bid to become the champ but without question won over the fans of Ring of Honor.

On July 24th and 25th, one year since he last appeared for ROH, Lance Storm will not only come back to ROH, he will return to active competition! At the Ted Reeve Arena in downtown Toronto, Storm will make his ROH in-ring return with matches on both nights! His opponents have yet to be determined but stay tuned to upcoming Newswires for more details on whom Storm will face when he returns to the ring.

When you add Storm’s name to a weekend that already includes appearances by Bret Hart on July 24th and Ric Flair on the 25th, ROH’s return to Canada is shaping up to be an historic one. Tickets are on sale now for both events here at www.rohwrestling.com, and you can save up to 4 0% off until Tuesday at noon. You don’t want to miss out on this historic weekend! Get your tickets now!


Lucky Canadian bastards! You get Lance coming out of retirement AND Bret Hart on the same night.

Fuck. I saw this thread from the forum main page, and I thought you meant back to WWE.

Wonder if they'll have him work Lynn the second night.

I'd assume it's Hero the first night.

Correct and likely it will be Jerry Lynn the other night although a match with Nigel or Davey Richards would be fantastic!
