Official ROH Newswire/Videowire thread

[Soulpower]

Newswire! Including a couple of matches for the SoTF being announced.

September 18th: It doesn't get any bigger than this weekend. Tomorrow (Friday) will see ROH tape PPV #9 when it returns to Boston at the Case Gym on the beautiful Boston University Campus on 285 Babcock Street with a zip code of 02215. Then on Saturday ROH returns to Philadelphia, but this time the show will be at the historic New Alhambra/former ECW Arena on 7 Ritner Street with a zip code of 19148. Belltime for both nights is 8pm and tickets will be available at the door in both Boston and Philadelphia. It looks to be a very tough weekend for ROH World Champion Nigel McGuinness. He will defend the title in Boston against Roderick Strong, who has come close to winning the World Title in the past. Strong is a definite threat to the title. The winner of McGuinness vs. Strong in Boston will immediately put the title on the line in Philly against El Generico, who is one of the most popular athletes in ROH. Generico's high-flying, innovative offense can defeat anyone at anytime. He showed a lot of heart in taking McGuinness to the limit last month in Cleveland. Generico is very capable of scoring the upset in Philadelphia. Get your tickets at the door in both Philly and Boston and see if McGuinness can continue his momentum as ROH World Champion.

September 18th: Put September 26th down on your calendar because that is the premiere of the ROH "New Horizons" pay-per-view on iN DEMAND, The DISH Network and TVN cable systems. September 26th is the date to see the Bryan Danielson vs. Tyler Black bout everyone will be talking about. If you liked the final five minutes of the last ROH PPV, you need to see this bout on September 26th. Check your local listings for all the details.

September 18th: We now have the official word that new GHC Jr. Heavyweight Champion Bryan Danielson will put the title on the line this Saturday in Philadelphia against Katsuhiko Nakajima. It was an emotional moment when Danielson won the championship last Sunday in Tokyo. Now he is ready to take on one of Japan's hardest kickers. In fact, many consider Nakajima the hardest kicker in all of wrestling. Can Nakajima realize his potential and gain the biggest win of his career in Philadelphia?

September 18th: Kensuke Sasaki and Katsuhiko Nakajima will be available for autographs on Saturday in Philly. Autograph tickets will be sold at the show.

Bad news for Orlando!

The 10/10 Coral Springs and 10/11 Orlando events have been postponed and will be rescheduled for early 2009. All tickets purchased for these events will be honored on the new dates. We hope to have a new dates announced next week. Sorry for any inconvenience. Thank you for your support.There's no word yet on the 10/12 Full Impact Pro event scheduled for that weekend that would have featured some of the same talents. I believe, but do not have confirmed, that light pre-sales for the ROH shows led to the postponement.

 

[Headfirst For Hardcore]

pretty bad news for the fans, that's the first show that's been cancelled in a long time probably. it's kind of disappointing that there was no confirmed reason from Gabe or Cary, fans must be pissed.

and if they're dropping FLA because of this, I still have my fingers crossed for Honor to return to Long Island, or Queens.

 

[Montana]

I was kinda hoping for a Detroit show. Our last show was July, and the next scheduled is like Jan. 30th. Maybe a DET/NY Weekend??

The Four Way Iron Tag should be a little longer than 30 imo. I think 45 would be a good range for all the wrestlers to get a nice flow going.

Just some action from the last few shows.

- October 29th: ROH officials are happy to announce a working relationship with the IWS promotion (www.syndicatewrestling.com). To that end, on November 7 in Montreal, ROH is happy to welcome the talents of Dan Paysan, Exess, Stupefied, and the Green Phantom! We look forward to seeing these four men in action in Montreal!

- We have another grudge match to announce for Montreal. Sweet-n-Sour's Eddie Edwards will oppose the man who has continually shunned the advances of Larry Sweeney, Erick Stevens! Sweeney has made it a priority to teach Stevens a lesson, and Edwards claims he's up to the task. "People think I have no personality," quipped Edwards. "But what do these idiot fans expect? I get paid for one thing – my wrestling skill. And it's deadly! That's right, I'm deadly. Silent but deadly."

- Speaking of Sweet-n-Sour, Go Shiozaki has been training non-stop with Hall of Famer and former NWA Champion, Harley Race, for his shot at Nigel McGuinness and the ROH World Title in Montreal. Larry Sweeney has intercepted all attempts to speak with Shiozaki, maintaining that "Go has two distinct agendas: Winning titles and taking out our enemies. In both Montreal and Toronto he'll do just that. Talking to any of you ham-and-eggers is not a priority."

- We're happy to announce that Brent Albright returns to action in Dayton on November 21! While his opponent is yet unknown, Albright has made one thing clear: He wants Sweet-n-Sour at any cost. "Bring me anyone managed by that Yellow-haired-Blue-Toothed-Cheap-Suit-Mush-Mouth. It started with Pearce, but I suppose he's off pushing paper somewhere. Everyone knows what I want. I want them all in the cage at Final Battle!" As this went to press, ROH has yet to receive any response to Albright's challenge for Final Battle. More to come.

- Don't miss your last chance at the Big Ten Sale which ends on Friday morning at 9am EST. Included in the sale is over 100 Ring of Honor DVD's priced at $10 each. You can also get general admission tickets to events in Montreal, Toronto, Dayton, Chicago Ridge, St. Louis, and Nashville for $10 each. On top of that, you can save 10% off your next order.

October 29th: Rumor has it that Jimmy Jacobs has asked ROH officials to allow Tyler Black as his second for the 11/22 "I Quit" match in Chicago against Austin Aries. Aries could not be reached for comment.

- Bryan Danielson has been in contact, and has had spirited dialogue, with the ROH Booking Committee. We have it on good authority that an announcement of some sort will be made early next week in reference to these talks.

- Look for the new ROH Video Wire to be posted in the next 24 hours at www.rohvideos.com featuring highlights from last Friday night in Danbury, CT.

Interesting to see IWS guys on the upcoming shows.


And it looks like Brent Albright could be the in store for another major push. As in top guy.


I'm also waiting to see where Pearce books himself. I could see Chris Hero becoming a top heel soon too.

November 3rd: Delirious and Brodie Lee, representing the Age of the Fall, have issued an open challenge for a tag team match during Saturday’s Toronto event. As of press today, no one has answered the challenge. We will have an update on this once news becomes available.

November 3rd: Nigel McGuinness was unimpressed with the news that Bryan Danielson has “forced†himself into a 3-Way match against Kenny Omega and Tyler Black in Toronto. “Anything that club-foot Danielson can do,†proclaimed Nigel, “I can most assuredly do better. He wants to 'prove his worth' in 3-Way matches? No problem. In Dayton, one day before I beat Dragon within an inch of his life and prove I’m the best ROH champion of all time, I will put this belt up for grabs, and I’ll do it in a 3-Way Dance as well!†We’ll have his challengers for Dayton as they become available! Nigel still faces the challenge of leaving Canada this coming weekend as the World Champion.

November 3rd: Speaking of Bryan Danielson, he apparently hasn’t forgotten about what Claudio Castagnoli did to him several months back in New York. Also signed for Dayton on 11/21 is Danielson vs. Castagnoli! Requests for comment from Castagnoli were denied.

November 3rd: A six-man tag team grudge match has been signed for Chicago on 11/22. The team of Chris Hero, Davey Richards, and Go Shiozaki, representing Sweet-n-Sour Incorporated will oppose Roderick Strong, Erick Stevens, and Brent Albright!

- November 10th: ROH is happy to extend a huge THANK YOU to the wonderful fans of the Montreal and Toronto areas for two wonderful events over the past weekend. We are happy to announce return dates of April 17th in Montreal, Quebec and April 18th in Markham, Ontario. Tickets for both events are on sale now.

- Speaking of "thank you's", ROH officials want to publicly acknowledge the remarkable efforts displayed by the Necro Butcher in Toronto during the ROH World Title match against Nigel McGuinness. After suffering a knee injury the night before in Montreal, Necro displayed an incredible sense of pride and guts as he lobbied to participate in the match against the advice of medical personnel. We wish Necro a speedy recovery and will update his status as news becomes available.

- Erick Stevens was blind sided and publicly attacked by Sweet-N-Sour Incorporated following Saturday's Markham, Ontario event. New ROH backstage interviewer, Kyle Durden, was in the midst of an interview when cameras captured the violent attack. We hope to have the footage available soon and we are awaiting confirmation of the severity of Stevens' injuries.

- Kenny Omega took the ball and ran with it over this past weekend with impressive showings in both Montreal and suburban Toronto. Kenny King was apparently unimpressed, as he abandoned Omega during their scheduled tag team match against the Briscoes in Montreal. King left ringside with Rhett Titus, and ended up being successful with Titus against the AOTF contingent of Brodie Lee and Delirious. Both King and Omega will be a part of the debut of ROH in St. Louis and Nashville! We'll have their scheduled matches soon right her in the newswire.

- You can now save 25% off all orders placed at www.rohwrestling.com. This offer is good on DVD's, tickets, apparel, & more. Check out the main page of the site for details along with the discount code.

- Jimmy Jacobs was a bloodied and beaten man at the end of the night in Markham. That did not stop him from commanding the attention of ROH film crews, who captured Jacobs' reactions to the brutal Dog Collar match only minutes after the bell rang. We will bring you that footage soon, as well as several other video pieces, at ROHVideos.com.

- Jerry Lynn was 1-for-2 in his contests over the weekend, but in the eyes of the fans, he convincingly batted 1.000. The ovations for the 45-year-old veteran in both Montreal and Markham didn't go unnoticed, especially by ROH World Champion Nigel McGuinness, who was said to be "less than happy" with how much adulation Lynn received.
