Ring of Honor presents "Take No Prisoners" featuring a Dream Tag Team Match with GHC Jr. Heavyweight Champion KENTA & Tyler Black vs. Katsuhiko Nakajima & Austin Aries; Bryan Danielson vs. Jerry Lynn vs. Erick Stevens vs. D-Lo Brown in a Four Corner Survival; ROH World Champion Nigel McGuinness & Claudio Castagnoli vs. NWA World Champion Blue Demon Jr. & Brent Albright; Jimmy Jacobs vs. The Necro Butcher in a No DQ War; Alex Koslov vs. Roderick Strong; ROH World Tag Team Champions Kevin Steen & El Generico, Jay Briscoe, & Magno vs. The American Wolves, Chris Hero, & Incognito; Colt Cabana vs. Ace Steel; plus more.

April 2nd: This Saturday's episode of Ring of Honor on HDNet features a great main event of "American Dragon" Bryan Danielson vs. Austin Aries.

April 2nd: “That Young Knockout Kid” Chris Hero has claimed that he’s perfected the rolling elbow strike due to knowledge bestowed on him by the legendary Mitsuharu Misawa. Others simply claim that his knockout prowess is due to an obviously loaded green elbow guard. ROH officials have been unable to find any concrete evidence to prove that the elbow guard has been doctored in any way, and super agent Larry Sweeney refuses to comment other than to praise the deadly precision with which Hero has been able to dispatch his opponents. Now Hero will have the chance to put that elbow to use as his opponents for ROH’s return to Canada have been finalized. On April 17th in Montreal, Hero will face rising Canadian star Frankie the Mobster in singles competition. A win by Frankie could secure him future ROH appearances, while Sweet-N-Sour Incorporated claims that this contest is nothing more than a “sparring session”. Then on April 18th in Markham, the challenge for Hero would appear greater as he’s signed to face the Necro Butcher! These two recently met during the inaugural ROH on HDNet television tapings, and that match will air this weekend on HDNet! Can Hero “pad” his personal win column in Canada?
April 2nd: A pair of tag team matches has been signed for Dayton on April 24th. First, the Phoenix Twins will make their Dayton ROH debut as they oppose the team of Austin Aries and “Addicted to Love” Rhett Titus. This marks the first time that they will team since the camaraderie between Aries, Titus, and Kenny King came to light in Pittsburgh. Can the athletic Phoenix Twins score the huge upset, or is this just the beginning of great things for Aries and his newfound friends? Also, the Dark City Fight Club has been very impressive since debuting in ROH back at Proving Ground ’09, and they’ve run roughshod over everyone they’ve faced in ROH since then. Now they will see a rematch from Proving Ground ’09 Night One, as they will face the ROH World Tag Team Champions, Kevin Steen and El Generico in non-title action. The DCFC couldn’t score the upset back in Coral Springs, but now they have momentum on their side while the champs have been busy trying to fight off the American Wolves. Can the Fight Club knock off one of the best tag teams on the globe?
April 2nd: Chicago Ridge will be buzzing on April 25th as two big matches have also been signed. It looks like “American Dragon” Bryan Danielson’s fight against the Embassy will continue in Chicago as Prince Nana has secured a singles match between Danielson and his “crown jewel”, Jimmy Rave! Rave and Bison Smith fell to Dragon and Colt Cabana at the Seventh Anniversary show in New York, and now Rave wants redemption. He hasn’t forgotten the past, and wants nothing more than to set in the heel hook and slay the Dragon. Can Rave use the past to his advantage? Also signed for Chicago Ridge, a special attraction has been signed as Larry Sweeney has gotten Chris Hero signed to one of his highest profile matches since returning from Japan. On April 25th, Hero will face Tyler Black! Sweeney and Hero know that a victory over Black could catapult Hero into title contention, and they would love nothing more than to see that happen sooner than later. Black is also preoccupied, looking over his shoulders at all times for Austin Aries and Jimmy Jacobs. Get ready Chicago, besides those great matches you’ll also witness the “homecoming” of Colt Cabana ! Tickets are on sale now at www.rohwrestling.com. Don’t miss it!
April 2nd: After conversations yesterday, we have learned that ROH World Champion Nigel McGuinness has been strongly advised by medical personnel that further injury to either of his arms could result in surgery and a lengthy rehabilitation process which would keep him out of action for several months. The safety and well-being of every performer is without question the top priority for ROH officials but McGuinness has informed everyone involved that nothing will stop him from “shattering Geritol Lynn’s ridiculous dreams”. Those comments aside, ROH officials are considering McGuinness a “game time” decision. Should McGuinness ultimately be unable to compete this weekend in Houston, ROH officials and the Booking Committee are prepared to shift the card.
April 2nd: Jimmy Jacobs faces the Necro Butcher as part of “Take No Prisoners” on Saturday in Houston as outlined in this week’s main page article. But Jimmy will see Necro again, this time as part of another of the Television Main Event for Ring of Honor on HDNet. On April 10th in South Philly it will be tag team warfare as Jacobs and the gargantuan Brodie Lee will take on the Necro Butcher and Delirious! HDNet executives consider their network a family-friendly platform, but they have seen the type of carnage that can result when Jacobs and his hatred are at full bore. Considering the history and bad blood in this match, there is no telling how far any of these men will go to destroy each other!
