NIGEL MCGUINNESS MAKES A HUGE ANNOUNCEMENT!
What is the future of Ring of Honor? (TV SPOILERS CONTAINED)
There has been a great deal of speculation regarding the future of the ROH World Title since Baltimore when Jay Briscoe was assaulted by S.C.U.M following his championship bout with Matt Hardy. There has also been rampant speculation about the future of Jay and Mark Briscoe as it pertains to ROH and their injuries suffered at the hands of Steve Corino’s crew.
As we saw here in a video Jay Briscoe sent to ROHWrestling.com, the World Champion is obviously injured but also obviously upset at the speculation and rumors about his & Mark’s future as well as the future of the World Title he fought so hard for the last eleven years to finally win.
Now, after anxiously waiting since Baltimore, we have received an official statement from ROH Match Maker Nigel McGuinness regarding the issues mentioned above:
To recap, for the very first time since Low Ki became the first champion, the World Title will be vacant BUT for the first time since the “Road To the Title/Crowning A Champion” events of 2002 there will be a tournament held to crown the new ROH World Champion!
Starting in Providence on July 27th and continuing in Toronto on August 3rd, NYC on August 17th, and culminating during “Death Before Dishonor XI” weekend in Philadelphia on September 20th & 21st, this tourney will feature 16 men battling it out for the right to hold the most prestigious wrestling championship in the world today!
The first man entered, as Nigel stated in his video, will be the top contender to the championship: “Unbreakable” Michael Elgin! Elgin had been patiently waiting for a title opportunity he earned back at “Supercard of Honor VII” when he defeated Jay Lethal but was one of many people sidetracked by the S.C.U.M situation. Now he finds himself the first man entered into the tournament that kicks off later this month and his 1st round match-up will go down in the city where he was originally scheduled to challenge for the World Title: Toronto on August 3rd!
Expect more competitors to be announced EVERY DAY until the field is complete so make sure you are checking out ROHWrestling.com each day, even over the holiday weekend!
The war with S.C.U.M has ended, the rebuilding phase has begun, and that post-war reconstruction can take a long time before there is a rebirth. With SCUM no longer around to serve as a distraction Ring of Honor can focus on rebuilding to what it is truly about. The road to purity has begun...

2ND ENTRANT SET FOR THE TITLE TOURNAMENT
And it's the return of an ROH Founding Father...
Yesterday it was announced that the ROH World Title had been vacated and a tournament to crown the new champion would begin in Providence, RI on July 27th and run throughout the summer until "Death Before Dishonor XI" weekend in Philadelphia. The first man entered into the tournament by Match Maker Nigel McGuinness was the top contender for the belt "Unbreakable" Michael Elgin and now ROHWrestling.com has been given the name of the second entrant into the field....
BRIAN KENDRICK!
It has been over three years since Kendrick has stepped into an ROH ring, since the "8th Anniversary Show" when he lost to Roderick Strong to be exact, and now he makes his return on August 3rd in Toronto with an opportunity to become the new World Champion at stake!
Kendrick, or Spanky as he was known then, does have some experience in this type of situation as he was one of the four men who competed in the legendary Iron Man Four Way at "Crowning A Champion" alongside Low Ki, Doug Williams, and Christopher Daniels. Spanky and Williams both scored -1 point in that fight Low Ki ultimately won but that was 11 years ago and Kendrick has since become an internationally traveled veteran of the ring wars.
With a surprise like Brian Kendrick announced as the 2nd entrant, who knows who else Nigel McGuinness could be in contact with to compete in this 16-man tournament? Check back with ROHWrestling.com EVERY DAY for more names as they get finalized and pick up your tickets for all the upcoming events right here!

ENTRY NUMBER THREE IS SET!
A Machine Gun Returns....
Michael Elgin and the returning Brian Kendrick have already been announced as the first two participants in the World Title Tournament that begins in Providence on July 27th and continues throughout the summer until we reach Philadelphia in September. There are fourteen other men still to be named for this single elimination tournament and ROHWrestling.com has now learned the name of the third man who will join the field and he is someone who earned your "Please Come Back" chants in New York City...
"The Machine Gun" Karl Anderson!
This member of the BULLET CLUB in New Japan Pro Wrestling impressed earlier this year in his bout against Roderick Strong as well as that opposite the aforementioned Elgin and now he will return to Ring of Honor in hopes of adding the ROH World Title to his already impressive championship resume. Anderson's road to the championship will begin on July 27th in Providence when he competes in his 1st Round bout but will it end there or continue on until ROH returns home to Philadelphia?
Be there live at all of our upcoming events to watch the tournament unfold by getting your tickets here in the ROH Store and check back tomorrow for the name of the next entrant into the field!

KEVIN STEEN JOINS THE FIELD!!!
Can he become a two-time champion?
The field of the ROH World Title Tournament is already stacked with only three names released in Elgin, Kendrick, and Anderson and there are still 13 more to go. With the tournament set to begin on July 27th in Providence, RI and continue on in Toronto and NYC, before coming to a head in Philadelphia in September, the desire to be part of the field is running high in the locker room. ROHWrestling.com now has the name of the fourth men to enter the tourney and he is a man with a chance to become a 2-Time champion with a victory:
KEVIN STEEN!
The former World Champion, the man who was dethroned by Jay Briscoe at "Supercard of Honor VII", will have his chance to become only the second 2-Time Champion in ROH’s eleven year history. As everyone well knows, Nigel McGuinness had been very wary of Steen in the shadow of his excommunication from S.C.U.M but with how he stepped up in Baltimore it seems that the man once known as “Wrestling’s Worst Nightmare” has earned a berth in the tournament. His first round bout will go down in the city where he won the World Title in the first place: Toronto on August 3rd!
Check back tomorrow to see the name of the 5th man entered into the World Title Tournament and get your tickets for Providence, Toronto, NYC, and Philadelphia right here in the ROH Store!!!

THE INTREPID TRAVELER IS IN!
Can he accomplish the goal he set eleven years ago?
Michael Elgin...Brian Kendrick...Karl Anderson...Kevin Steen; those four men have been entered into the 16 Man Elimination field to crown the next Ring of Honor World Champion.

"The Intrepid Traveler" Paul London
London, who made his return to ROH after ten years at "Border Wars 2013", left ROH in the first place following a World Title loss to Samoa Joe at the inaugural "Death Before Dishonor" in 2003. Will the weekend of "Death Before Dishonor XI" host a return to the championship picture for London? Paul London's road to the championship begins in Toronto on August 3rd and you can follow it over the course of the summer as the World Title Tournament rolls on!

ANOTHER ENTRANT NAMED!
Can Roderick become a Two Timer?
1. Michael Elgin
2. Brian Kendrick
3. Karl Anderson
4. Kevin Steen
5. Paul London
And now the 6th man has been named to the ROH World Title Tournament that begins on July 27th in Providence, RI: Roderick Strong!
Roddy is no stranger to the World Title having held the belt from “Glory by Honor IX” on 9/11/10 until “Manhattan Mayhem IV” on 3/19/11 when Eddie Edwards dethroned him. Roddy is no stranger to championships in general either as he is only one of two men (the other being Edwards) who can claim status as an ROH Triple Crown Champion.
Will Roderick next be able to lay claim to the moniker of 2-Time Champion as only one other man has done? His pursuit of that will begin on August 3rd in Toronto when Strong competes in his First Round tournament bout! Who will be his opponent? Well with 10 other men still to be announced the possibilities are wide open! Check back later today for the next entry into the field and head on over here to get your tickets for the World Title Tournament events in Providence, Toronto, NYC, and Philadelphia!!!

LUCKY NUMBER SEVEN!
Panama City's Finest Joins The Field...
Elgin, Kendrick, Anderson, Steen, London, Strong...the list of competitors in the World Title Tournament is already impressive and reading like an all-star ballot. Now another man has been thrown in the mix that makes the field even more competitive and he is one who came close to claiming the World Title at “Border Wars 2013”:
Adam Cole!
On two occasions Cole has attempted to become World Champion, at “Rising Above 2012” and the aforementioned “Border Wars 2013” event, but has come up short each time. Those losses have only made him even hungrier to lay claim to a title many fans have felt Cole was destined to hold since the day he first started with Ring of Honor. Despite the recent questionable actions of Cole, he has shown that all the tools are at his disposal, it is just a matter of putting it all together to become champion. Can Cole finally do it? He will take his first steps on the path to the World Title on July 27th in Providence and, should he succeed, it will continue on in Toronto, New York City, and Philadelphia!
There are nine slots left to be filled in the World Title Tournament! Check back tomorrow for the next two entries into the field and head on over HERE to get your tickets for the tournament events in Providence, Toronto, NYC, and Philadelphia!!!

THE 8TH ENTRANT IS NAMED!
And it's another return to the fold...
Seven men have stepped up thus far to enter the World Tag Title Tournament, nine more are still to be named before it kicks off in Providence on July 27th, and one of those men has officially been set as of this morning:
Sonjay Dutt
It has been over two years since Sonjay Dutt has entered into the ROH ring to compete with his last bout taking place at “Final Battle 2010” where he fell to Eddie Edwards and to Roderick Strong one night prior at “Tag Title Classic II”. His history with ROH, while not the deepest, has seen Dutt involved in one of the biggest shows in ROH history with “At Our Best”, challenging for the World Title against Bryan Danielson at “Death Before Dishonor IV” in the midst of the war with CZW, and spending a great deal of 2009 competing against men like Delirious, Tyler Black, and El Generico just to name a few.
Now Dutt makes his return to ROH in hopes of adding the World Title to his already illustrious championship resume and his path to that dream will start in Providence, RI on July 27th! From there the championship road leads to Toronto and New York City before ramping up in Philadelphia during “Death Before Dishonor XI” weekend! Tickets for all of these events are on-sale right here in the ROH Store and check back later today for the next man to join the field!

LUCKY ELEVEN...
The Tournament Gets A Lethal Injection!
The number eleven is a lucky one when it comes to the game of craps and for our next entrant's sake, hopefully that parlays over to the World Title Tournament that begins on July 27th as part of the “Ring of Honor Wrestling” TV Tapings in Providence! Just who is that next man?
Jay Lethal!!!
Lethal has had his eyes set on the World Title since the day he returned to Ring of Honor in 2011 after a lengthy absence and nearly fulfilled that dream in a pair of bouts with Davey Richards during The American Wolf's title reign as well as twice against Kevin Steen during his reign. Now, in Providence on the 27th, Jay's dream will begin anew when he has his 1st round battle during the ROH TV Tapings.

Tickets for all these events are available right here in the ROH Store and check back tomorrow for the announcement of the next two entrants into the World Title Tournament field!

THE 12TH MAN...
Michael Bennett Has His Eyes On The prize!
The field for the World Title Tournament is almost complete with 11 of the 16 competitors announced. With the tourney set to kick-off on July 27th when ROH heads to Providence, RI for a round of “Ring of Honor Wrestling” TV Tapings the names have been coming out fast and furious on ROHWrestling.com.

Now, with a new fire underneath him, the next man to join the tournament is hungry to prove himself deserving of the hype that preceeded him:
Michael Bennett!!!
The man recently declared that “The Prodigy is dead” but what that means for his future remains to be seen. One can be certain though that on August 3rd in Toronto, when Bennett begins his quest to claim the World Title, that the ROH faithful will find out exactly what it means.
There are still four men left to be named to the World Title Tournament; make sure you check back here at ROHWrestling.com to see who draws the number many consider unlucky: 13!

ENTRANT NUMBER 13!
Two men but only one spot...
Triskaidekaphobia...
It's the fear of the number 13 and let's just hope that neither of the two men who will vie for the 13th spot in the World Title Tournament suffer from it because this is the opportunity of a lifetime.
On July 27th in Providence, while the World Title Tournament is kicking off around them, Silas Young and the newly-signed Adam Page will go one-on-one with the winner claiming that thirteenth spot in the tournament! For both men it is the opportunity of a lifetime and it is one earned because of how they impressed Match Maker Nigel McGuinness in their recent bout on ROH TV. The winner will then head on to “All Star Extravaganza V” on August 3rd in Toronto where he will compete in his First Round match-up!
For either Silas Young or Adam Page this could be the start of a dream come true and all starts in Providence! For the man whose dream lives, it will continue on in Toronto, New York City, and Philadelphia over “Death Before Dishonor XI” weekend and tickets for all those events can be found right here in the ROH Store!
Numbers 14, 15, and 16 are still to be named so make sure you come back to ROHWrestling.com next week to see who the last three competitors in the World Title Tournament will be!!!

THE FINAL ENTRANT...
Chicken is back in business!
Earlier today we announced that the 15th entrant into the World Title Tournament would be determined by your votes on our official Facebook page. We also said that Nigel McGuinness had secured the last entry in the field and he has now confirmed that 16th, and final, name with ROHWrestling.com...
Mark Briscoe!!!
Mark has been out of action since the June 23rd TV Tapings in Baltimore when he was viciously assaulted by S.C.U.M after already having to bow out of Steel Cage Warfare due to injuries suffered during his "Best in the World 2013" World Title bout against brother Jay the previous night.
While Jay Briscoe is still slated to be out of action for the next 3-6 months due to the severe shoulder injury that forced McGuinness to strip him of the World Title, Mark has informed ROH officials that he expects to be cleared by the doctors from his recent concussion come July 26th!
With that in consideration, Nigel McGuinness has named Mark Briscoe as the last entry into the field with his first round match-up taking place on July 27th in Providence!
That's not all though; McGuinness has also informed of us of the first official Opening Round match-up for the tournament and it will be Mark Briscoe versus Adam Cole! In addition, we have also learned that the winner of that bout will move on to "All Star Extravaganza V" in Toronto for their second round match-up!
With one man left to be named tomorrow based on your Facebook votes, you can expect the other first round match-ups to also be set in the coming days. The road to the title begins in Providence and leads us straight back home to Philadelphia in September... tickets for all of the events are available right here in the ROH Store!
This is the summer of honor!
