More ROH News: January 8th Newswire
Posted by Larry Csonka on 01.08.2009
More ROH news!
- January 8th: We're just over one week away from the debut of RISING ABOVE on pay per view starting Friday, January 16th. In case you missed the news several weeks back, this event will be available to DIRECT TV subscribers for the first time. Other cable operators carrying this event include iN Demand, The Dish Network, & TVN cable systems in the United States. Viewer's Choice and Bell ExpressVu will be carrying the event in Canada. For more details on this PPV event click here: http://www.rohwrestling.com/news/article.aspx?id=2508.
- The first teaser from the RISING ABOVE pay per view with clips from Nigel McGuinness vs. Bryan Danielson can be viewed here:
- Jerry Lynn sat down for a compelling interview in the last ROH Video Wire. He talked about a variety of subjects, including losing his confidence, and his love for the wrestling industry. Now on January 16 in Manassas, Lynn will take to the squared circle once more, this time against a man that has many questions to answer. Austin Aries has been eerily silent since Final Battle, and has yet to shed any light on his attack of Tyler Black, speculation of an alliance with arch nemesis, Jimmy Jacobs, or anything else. Now we've come to find that he's signed to face Lynn, who's on a quest of his own. Will we get any closer to clarity on 1/16?
- Ring of Honor officials are still receiving no cooperation from Austin Aries when it comes to the World Title Match that he earned by virtue of his win over Tyler Black at Final Battle. The Booking Committee has been trying to secure the championship match for the fans in Edison on January 17. We hope to have an update on this as soon as possible, as neither the ROH Office nor Nigel McGuinness has any clue what Aries is doing.
- "Sugarfoot" Alex Payne and Silas Young have earned another chance at ROH Pay-Per-View based on their showing at "Rising Above". On January 31 in Chicago, they'll face each other in singles competition.
- Ring of Honor will return to Detroit, MI on Friday, January 30th for "Motor City Madness 2009". Claudio Castagnoli vs. Brent Albright in a "Special Challenge Match" was made official yesterday. Kevin Steen and El Generico have just found out who they'll defend the World Tag Team Titles against, and they couldn't be happier. Stemming off of the attempt to take out Steen's knee much like they did Mark Briscoe's, Larry Sweeney's American Wolves have signed the dotted line, and you can bet the fight will be on. "They tried like hell to take me out", said Steen. "And they got a lot closer than I care to admit. In Detroit on the 30th, Generico and I are coming for our receipt."
- Friday morning is your last chance to take advantage of the two current specials running at www.rohwrestling.com. The first offer features over 20 ROH live event DVD's from 2005 for only $8 each. The second deal features $10 off all ringside reserved seats for all upcoming live events. Complete details on the sale can be found here: http://www.rohwrestling.com/news/article.aspx?id=2435.
- Another phone call came into the ROH Offices yesterday from the same person that called before about returning to "where it all began".
- Kenny King will not be appearing in Manassas and Edison as advertised. We apologize for any inconvenience. We can announce that King, along with YRR teammate, Chasyn Rance, will appear when ROH returns to Florida in Coral Springs on February 6 and Orlando on February 7!
ROH is a bush-league collection of pasty, charisma-impaired spot monkeys who draw less in a full month of shows than Cena draws in a three-hour autograph sessions. ROH was founded by a homosexual pedophile and draws its fans from that demographic.

Paul London?

Haha, its pretty funny how you aim all that anger and rage you have stored up inside on an independent wrestling company. Does it really offend you that much? Not preaching, its actually really entertaining. You must be really serious and bitter all day long. Haha! On the real though, chill dude, you'll give yourself an aneurysm.

It's either Paul London, Low Ki, or dare i even speak it...Christopher Daniels. Any of the three would leave me quite stoked.

It's wrestling. You either like boring stale WWE or you like spot fest and technical wrestling. If you like TNA...well you probably like ketchup on your hotdogs too...

Man, when will people learn to ignore the trolls? Responding to them is like throwing water on a grease fire, it just makes 'em spread.

Since Gabe is gone, maybe Low Ki can come back!

Since when was being a wrestling fan extinct? I swear this anti-ROH ppl just need to open there minds and enjoy wrestling no matter who promotes it. Competition is a good thing for the business. Sure ROH may not seem like a huge threat and they aren't. However the product they put out is worldly reconginzed as the best north american promotion. I enjoy WWE for what they offer, same with TNA. More wrestling the better. Ever hear of the territories? Kids need to go back learn the history of the business. You obvisously have NO real respect for the business.

I like ROH. Meh, I like all types of wrestling. But seriously, fuck you! Go do something else than troll

This guy has some axe to grind against ROH for some reason...maybe a deal went south, he runs a competing promotion, he got turned down at a tryout, or something similar because he posts pretty much this same bash all over the place. Last place I saw it was on Amazon when I was shopping for old ROH DVDs. He posted almost the same exact nasty rant there. Pointing out the pedophile thing over and over leads me to believe it's someone with a grudge.
