All of the latest ROH News!
May 7th: Did you watch the new ROH Video Wire yet with a complete, bloody Necro Butcher match? See it now at www.ROHvideos.com and watch the most episodic story in wrestling with Jimmy Jacobs, Austin Aries and Lacey.
May 7th: We are sorry to report that Lacey will not be able to attend this weekend's events. Thank you for understanding about the lineup change. Daizee Haze will now be at this Saturday's event in Manhattan.
May 7th: If you saw the new ROH Video Wire you saw Jimmy Jacobs stab Mark Briscoe in the wrist, cutting ligaments. Mark is now out of action for 3-6 months after surgery. Jay Briscoe will get his first chance at revenge at ROH's May 9th debut in Virginia when he faces Jimmy Jacobs one-on-one. This one is going to be a war. Jay is fighting for the blood of his brother.
May 7th: More of the Mid-Atlantic's best have been added to this Friday's debut in Manasses, VA. It will be Rhett Titus & Rex Sterling vs. Mitch Franklin & Sean Denny. A good showing and some local support could earn Sterling, Denny and Damien Wayne more shots in ROH. Wayne will have a huge opportunity as he is in a Four Corner Survival vs. ROH World Champion Nigel McGuinness vs. Claudio Castagnoli vs. Brent Albright. If Wayne pins McGuinness he could immediately earn a World Title shot!!! See how some of the area's best do in a ROH ring this Friday when ROH heads southbound.
May 7th: You only have until tomorrow morning to take advantage of the buy 3, get 1 FREE sale on ROH DVDs at ROHwrestling.com. If you only get one ROH release this year make it "Supercard Of Honor III" from Orlando. The annual Dragon Gate six man tag delivers with futuristic, fast-paced action as CIMA, Dragon Kid & Ryo Saito take on Naruki Doi, Masato Yoshino & Genki Horiguchi. This is only 1/2 of the double main event as in a rematch from their match of the year candidate at "Rising Above" Nigel McGuinness defends the World Title vs. Austin Aries!!! This card is absolutely loaded with several more intense contests including: Kevin Steen & El Generico vs. BxB Hulk & Shingo in a state-of-the-art tag bout; Jay & Mark Briscoe vs. Jimmy Jacobs & Tyler Black in an insane Relaxed Rules brawl; Roderick Strong and Erick Stevens throw fists in a brutal fight; Bushwacker Luke, Dingo & Alex Payne vs. The YRR; Delirious vs. Go Shiozaki; plus more including Larry Sweeney and Tammy Sytch. This one is sure to be at the top of the show of the year lists. Act by tomorrow morning to get it in the buy 3, get 1 FREE ROH DVD sale at ROHwrestling.com.
May 7th: Austin Aries is focused on The Age Of The Fall, but there is one other issue that has been gnawing away at him. Aries can't forget "Proving Ground" in January when Erick Stevens defeated him in a dramatic contest. Aries wants to even the score. He'll get a chance this Friday in Virginia. Can Stevens prove the first victory wasn't a fluke? This will be competitive action at its best.
May 7th: Look for some new articles today on the main page of ROHwrestling.com.
May 7th: There are a lot of rumblings out of The Age Of The Fall camp including a new design at the www.AgeOfTheFall.com website.
