  • Press Release

…..

November 14th:  TONIGHT is the night.  Ring of Honor "DRIVEN" debuts on PPV.  In the United States you can watch this event on iN Demand, The Dish Network, and TVN cable systems.  In Canada you can see this event on Bell Express Vu and Viewer's Choice cable systems.  The event replays several times this weekend including the traditional 8pm EST time slot on Sunday.  For more information on the event click here:  http://www.rohwrestling.com/news/article.aspx?id=2387.
 
November 14th:  Mark and Jay Briscoe showed a different and somewhat unfortunate side of themselves after their hard fought loss to Kevin Steen and El Generico in Toronto.  Their level of aggression post-match was at an all-time high, and their frustration due to the loss went way past what we’re accustomed to seeing from the former World Tag Team Champions.  “We’ve earned our spot.  We’ve done it time and again, and now we have that black mark hanging over our heads”, said Jay Briscoe.  “But we’re gonna do what we do, son, and that’s simple.  We man up.  Can Steen and Generico do that?  Are they men or mice?  Yeah, they got a win.  ONE win.  That don’t prove nothing to nobody.  Do it again and then maybe you got something.”  We’ll have comments from Steen and Generico next week in the Newswire.

November 14th:  Claudio Castagnoli has been rumored to have been training along side ROH World Champion, Nigel McGuinness.  He’ll put that alleged training to the test as he’s thrown himself into the Four-Corner-Survival scheduled for Chicago on 11/22.  Besides the challenge of Silas Young, Sami Callahan, and one other unnamed competitor on that night, don’t forget that Castagnoli is facing Bryan Danielson in a highly volatile grudge match the night before in Dayton!

November 14th:  Mums the word in Austin Aries’ camp as he prepares for his “I Quit” war against Jimmy Jacobs on 11/22.  We know that Tyler Black will second Jacobs to the ring, and that Aries will also have a second, but he has refused every inquiry as to who that second will be.  Aries will get an up close and personal look at Black the night before in Dayton during the scheduled 3-Way-Title Match  as they both oppose Nigel McGuinness, but will Aries’ second also be on hand?

November 14th:  ROH officials have been unable to reach anyone connected to the Necro Butcher to ascertain the status of the knee injury he suffered at the hands of the AOTF’s Brodie Lee in Montreal.  Necro has seemingly gone into seclusion, and at this point all we know is that he’s scheduled to be a part of ROH’s debut events in St. Louis and Nashville.  We can’t confirm at this time if he’ll be able to compete, but we can surely surmise that he has his sights set on revenge.

November 14th:  The Triple Savings Sale returns for a few days at www.rohwrestling.com.   With the first part of the sale you can save 15% off your next order.  The second part of the sale features over 60 DVD's reduced to $5 or less.  The final part of this sale gives you 30% off tickets to ALL upcoming Ring of Honor live events.  Don't forget you can use the 15% off sale along with the $5 Sale and the 30% off ticket sale.  If you're looking for ROH tickets, this is your time to buy.

November 14th: Without question, the top two female competitors to emerge out of the St. Louis wrestling scene in recent years are SHIMMER Champion MsChif and Daizee Haze. Both women have several years of history with one another, both as training partners, adversaries, and as occasional teammates. There's no better place for MsChif and The Haze to have their first one-on-one match in ROH competition, than in front of the St. Louis area fans who have watched them from the start of their careers. On 12/5 in suburban St. Louis, these two Women of Honor will show their hometown fans what athletic female wrestling is all about in ROH. If MsChif is still SHIMMER Champion come 12/5, the title will be on the line!

November 14th:  Sources indicate that Larry Sweeney has been reluctantly telling those around him that it’s time Bobby Dempsey earned his keep.  Could this mean that Dempsey will finally see action inside the ring as opposed to always being forced to hide under it?  And when might this happen?  More on this as it develops.

November 14th:  There is a great video on the Roderick Strong & Erick Stevens feud with Sweet N Sour Inc posted here:  http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mMwXYss9XU8.  If you missed the latest Video Wire you can see it here:  ; http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yZ6b74OOCKM&feature=channel.

November 14th:  Fans of Nashville, get ready.  After spouting some unflattering comments on November 10th, Nigel McGuinness will be forced to physically back them up as he will face Jerry Lynn man-to-man!  This match will take place regardless of whether or not McGuinness retains the ROH World Title in Dayton or Chicago.  “Nigel is a great wrestler”, said the ever-classy Lynn.  “He’s one of the best of his generation.  But that ego of his is going to be his downfall.  I’m glad the booking committee made this match for me and my hometown fans, and I promise those fans in Nashville that win, lose, or draw, I’m taking Nigel to the limit.”

November 14th:  We’ll have more news on the St. Louis and Nashville cards early next week in the Newswire, as well as an update on whether or not Brent Albright and Roderick Strong plan to find a replacement for the injured Erick Stevens in Chicago.  Also, we’ll have exclusive “Final Battle Weekend” news and more.  Have a great weekend!
