- BREAKING NEWS: Davey Richards, eyeing potential retirement at the end of 2010, has issued a challenge. Travel complications prevented him from facing Roderick Strong last month in Buffalo, NY; now Richards wants Strong one-on-one in Philadelphia! “Roddy is a beast,” said Richards, “but he has something I want – a guaranteed shot at the World Title. The Pick 6 can get you a shot, but I just had one, and I lost to the better man that night. But it will never happen again. I will dominate. Last time I faced Roderick Strong we went the time limit and he walked like a coward. The Roddy I knew was never a coward. He knows there is unfinished business, and I am raising the stakes. I challenge Roddy to be a man and put his title shot up in Philly. I don’t have time to wait for the ROH Booking Committee to give me another chance. Roddy has a chance and I want to take it.” ROH Officials have reached out to Strong’s adviser, Truth Martini, but have not received comment. More on this as it develops.
