Wins and losses are everything here for all these competitors.

-The last time we saw Daizee Haze her former friend Delirious spiked her in the head and Rhett Titus continued to claim the rumors about her and him were true. How will she respond this weekend?
-Davey Richards is set to return to ROH this weekend as part of Sweet & Sour Inc. with his super agent Larry Sweeney. Richards looked better than ever on the ROH events in Tokyo last month. He has been training in Japan since the middle of June. He will be thrown right into the fire with his new skills. He will be in the main event Iron Team Match against ROH's best teams plus special guests LAX in Danbury. Then in Edison he will be faced with a very angry Brent Albright. Sweeney is sending Richards to try to take out Albright. This is another match that can be called a pick 'em. Will Richards reach the next level when he returns to ROH this weekend?
-ROH continues to look at new tag teams. The Phoenix Twins impressed enough at the last Chicago event that they have been added to 11/22 in Chi-Town for another look. The duos of The Osirian Portal and Cheech & Cloudy are set to either do or die this Saturday in Edison. Both these teams have gained a reputation on various indies and Chikara. Good crowd response from their fans will help them be successful. How will they do against ROH's best tag teams? Get your tickets at the door on Saturday and find out.
-Here is the first talent roster for the 12/5 St. Louis and 12/6 Nashville debut events. You know ROH will pull out all the stops to make these two debut shows a success. Signed so far for both cards: ROH World Champion Nigel McGuinness; FIP World Heavyweight Champion Go Shiozaki; SHIMMER Champion MsChif; Bryan Danielson; Austin Aries; The Necro Butcher; Brent Albright; Jimmy Jacobs & Tyler Black of The Age Of The Fall; Jay & Mark Briscoe; Jerry Lynn; Davey Richards; Kenny King & Sal Rinauro of The YRR; Delirious; Erick Stevens; plus many other big names will be added next week right here in the ROHwrestling.com Newswire.
-Grizzly Redwood said that he will chop someone down this weekend.
-We know that the winner of the 11/7 Montreal match pitting Bryan Danielson & Austin Aries vs. Jimmy Jacobs & Tyler Black will challenge for the ROH World Tag Team Titles on 11/21 in Dayton, OH (either against Kevin Steen & El Generico or Jay & Mark Briscoe depending on who wins their 11/8 title match in Toronto). Now we know the losing team from 11/7 will still be in a main event quality tag team match in Dayton. ROH World Champion Nigel McGuinness & Claudio Castagnoli will step up and face the team that does not challenge for the tag straps on 11/21 in Dayton. Here are the possible combinations for 11/21 depending on the results of Montreal and Toronto:
Combination A:
-Steen & Generico defend vs. Jacobs & Black
-McGuinness & Castagnoli vs. Danielson & Aries
Combination B:
-Steen & Generico defend vs. Danielson & Aries
-McGuinness & Castagnoli vs. Jacobs & Black
Combination C:
-Briscoes defend vs. Jacobs & Black
-McGuinness & Castagnoli vs. Danielson & Aries
Combination D:
-Briscoes defend vs. Danielson & Aries
-McGuinness & Castagnoli vs. Jacobs & Black
-Will you be there when the Kill Bill theme hits, the red lights start flashing and Homicide steps through the curtain and into ROH competition once again?
