April 7th: A huge match has been signed for April 22nd in Philadelphia. You will see Christopher Daniels with Allison Danger vs. Claudio Castagnoli in a match that is sure to have huge ramifications on the Top 5 Rankings. Tickets are now on sale for this show at www.ROHwrestling.com, by calling 215-781-2500 and at Ticketmaster outlets.

April 7th: Lacey has added Jimmy Jacobs to the 4/22 Philly show.

April 7th: Delirious has secured his spot in ROH with his win last Saturday night. You will see Delirious on all future shows starting with 4/22 in Philadelphia. Can Delirious get a win streak going and move into the Top 5?

April 7th: BJ Whitmer's ankle is doing much better and Whitmer expects to be ready to fight whoever CZW brings to Philly on 4/22. We are beginning to think that Chris Hero and the rest of CZW don't have any guts as they have yet to answer the challenge of Whitmer, Samoa Joe and Adam Pearce.

April 7th: 2/25 Fourth Anniversary Show is now out on DVD and ready for immediate delivery from ROHwrestling.com or by calling 215-781-2500. The DVD contains two special bonus videos featuring at least one highlight from every ROH show during its 4th year. You will also see an incredible night of action including: Roderick Strong & Austin Aries defend the Tag Titles vs. AJ Styles & Matt Sydal in a hard-hitting, athletic contest; Jack Evans suffers one of the most dangerous falls ever vs. Ricky Reyes; Bryan Danielson defends the World Title vs. Jimmy Rave in a classic; Homicide vs. Colt Cabana in a bloody and violent Ghetto Fight; Christopher Daniels vs. BJ Whitmer; Chris Hero, Necro Butcher & friends invade the show; Samoa Joe vs. Jay Lethal in a grudge match; Adam Pearce vs. Jay Fury vs. Azrieal vs. Claudio Castagnoli; Jay & Mark Briscoe return in a big way in a three way vs. Tony Mamaluke & Sal Rinauro vs. Jason Blade & Kid Mikaze plus more!!!

April 7th: ROH World Champion Bryan Danielson backed up his claim of being "The Best Wrestler In The World" with two grueling title defenses in front of ROH's record breaking crowds. Last Friday saw Danielson defeat Roderick Strong in a classic 56 minute contest that many fans thought would end in a 60 minute draw. Strong was very frustrated after the match as he felt he was about to become ROH World Champion. Danielson says that Strong will not get a rematch. Strong feels that he is one match away from solving the puzzle and beating Danielson. Strong has a point as the first meeting vs. Danielson went 37 minutes, the second contest saw Strong take Danielson to the 47 minute mark and now the third one saw Strong take Danielson even closer to the limit as they hit the 56 minute mark. Danielson showed his incredible conditioning when he defeated Lance Storm, who was in peak form after coming out of retirement, on Saturday. The Storm victory is even more impressive when you consider that Danielson's match on Friday ended just before 1am and his chest was blistered and he had a bruised eye due to Strong.

April 7th: Production began today on the 3/25 and 3/30 events. These shows will be part of the Milestone Series. The series will include the seven shows from 2/25 Fourth Anniversary Show to 4/22 100th show. The ROH production staff feels that it is very important to watch these seven shows in order as they go together like a sub-chapter in the history of ROH.

April 7th: The March 31st double DVD is shaping up to be the most epic home release in ROH history. The show can truly be called the Woodstock of wrestling as it is a long event that features a wide variety of styles and wrestlers. If the regular show isn't enough for you, there will be a bonus match taped at the FIP events this weekend. This is going to be an easy show of the year candidate.

April 7th: Christian's opponent for 5/12 in Long Island will be announced next week. We apologize for the fact that there are no 5/12 LI and 5/13 Edison, NJ announcements this week, but things have been very busy as we recover from the triple shot and begin production on all these great shows. We will have several matches for both events next week in the ROHwrestling.com Newswire.

April 7th: The April Top 5 Rankings have been released. Here is a look including an exclamation of everyone's spot:

1) Colt Cabana
Skyrockets to #1 spot with wins over Daniels (3/11) and Homicide (3/31)
