August 19th: ATTENTION LOS ANGELES! News broke this morning, and ROH is proud to announce that we are coming to Southern California! Ring of Honor will make it’s LA debut as part of the WrestleReunion convention on Friday, January 29th at the International Ballroom at the LAX Hilton. For info on the convention, please check out www.wrestlereunion.com! More on this as it develops!
August 19th: Signed for September 18th in Dayton is a tag team match that personifies the word ‘intensity’. Brent Albright and Erick Stevens have many in the ROH locker room talking about their potential, and in Dayton, they face the best ROH has to offer in Davey Richards and Eddie Edwards – the American Wolves! If any two men in Ring of Honor can match the physicality that the World Tag Team Champions bring, it may just be Stevens and Albright. The tag team championship will not be on the line, but a win over the Wolves would most certainly signify the coming out party for ROH’s newest team!
August 19th: ROH is happy to support Colt “Boom Boom” Cabana as he makes his stand-up comedy debut this Saturday at the world famous Improv in Hollywood! Cabana will take the stage as part of “Total Extreme Comedy” starring Cabana and Mick Foley, with Bret Ernst and others! Check out www.improv.com and follow the links to the Hollywood, CA location for more information!
August 19th: Kenny Omega looks to be in line for a shot at Austin Aries down the line, and in order to beat A Double, he knows he will have to be running at a level that most never reach. With that in mind, on September 25th in Boston, Omega has signed to face former ROH World Champion, Nigel McGuinness! Omega commented, “Nigel epitomizes greatness, and if I can beat him, maybe the greatest ROH champion ever, then I know I’m ready for Aries.” McGuinness had comments which are forthcoming in a future ROH Videowire.
August 19th: Speaking of McGuinness, those in attendance in Philadelphia saw Nigel verbally accost the fans, and in particular, Roderick Strong. Nigel took to lambasting Roddy, berating him for essentially giving the fans everything they want and more. Nigel’s verbal assault on Roddy led to him losing to Joey Ryan that night, and now Strong wants Nigel to pay. “Nigel had no reason to get in my business,” said Strong. “The way I see it, he caused me to lose that match. And who cares what Nigel thinks? He’s broken down and20bitter and blames the fans for it, and now he’s decided to make me part of it. Well, in New York on September 25th, I’ll shut him up. Because Nigel, only the strong survive.” It’s McGuinness versus Strong in NYC!
