**********************************
It began at “Best In The World 2011” when, during the free preview show, Nick & Matt Jackson made their return to Ring of Honor in a bout against Adam Cole & Kyle O’Reilly. The four men put on an absolutely amazing display of athleticism and cutting edge tag team wrestling, but the bout was cut short by the interference of Lancelot & Harlem Bravado. The Bravados paid for their interference but both teams were left unfulfilled…
At “Death Before Dishonor IX”, all three of those teams met in an Elimination Tag Match in which The Bucks & Future Shock strove to eliminate The Bravados in order to get at each other in a straight up two-on-two. Eventually they succeeded but when the Jackson brothers finally scored the win, they bailed on the traditional post-match handshake that symbolizes The Code of Honor. To say that didn’t set well with Cole & O’Reilly would be a slight understatement...
“It wasn’t right man.” Said Kyle O’Reilly, “They won that fight straight up so Adam and I were showing them the respect they earned that night. To spit in the face of that, to basically tell us that we’re beneath them, that’s not what this is about. It’s about the fight man, and it’s about showing the world why ROH is the best in tag team wrestling. You two made it something else, something kind of ugly, and Adam and I would love the chance to settle that up.”
Well in Louisville on November 5th, Future Shock will get that opportunity when they once again face The Young Bucks in a rematch of their “Best in the World” bout! And this time it goes down in front of the TV cameras for Sinclair Broadcasting stations nationwide. Future Shock vs. The Young Bucks, 11/5/11, Louisville, KY.
