ROH news and video thread

[chrom]

There's talk of bringing in NJPW talent for The Supercard of Honor show over WrestleMania weekend.

[PrinceD]

So Rocky Romero is being advertised for the Milwaukee & Chicago shows next month & he's claiming to bring a new tag team partner with him. Any guesses as to who it could be?

I'm guessing Cliff Compton.

No thanks on Compton. If we're lucky, Silas Young. Unlucky, it's Beer City Brawler. Wildcard though could be Louis Lyndon.

If this mystery partner is also going to be his new partner in NJPW, then it would have to be another junior heavyweight. I'm thinking someone along the lines of Trent Barreta.

First name that came to my mind was Chris Sabin.

[PrinceD]

Willie Mack sent out a tweet saying that he will be at the PPV show. Maybe that's who it is?

Hope so. Willie Mack in ROH would be great. Was disappointed when WWE let him go

[chazraps]

Have Mack and Romero ever tagged together? Their styles seem like they've have good chemistry.

[darkpatriot]

lots of good guesses/ideas on this one.

[The Scuba Guy]

Considering Romero's not supposed to come in until the middle of March in Milwaukee and Chicago, I'd say Sabin is more likely than Willie Mack.

If Willie Mack is actually competing at the 13th Anniversary, which I kind of doubt, then I could see him facing Matt Sydal, as he is still listed to appear but has no match.

[543Y2J]

Willie Azuka Mack or Chris Azuka Sabin...hmmm

Win win situation

[chrom]

So anyone catch Bullet Club vs ACH/Sydal/Cedric? Was it as good as reported?

SIX MAN MAYHEM SIGNED FOR THIS SATURDAY IN ATLANTA
Saturday, February 21st, 2015 - North Atlanta Trade Center



We are just days away from the ROH WINTER WARRIORS TOUR in Atlanta! On February 21, we make our final stop before the 13TH ANNIVERSARY pay-per-view and every single ROH star is looking to make a last minute statement. At the pay-per-view, World Champion Jay Briscoe puts his title on the line against three challengers. And we can now confirm that all three top contenders will be in action in Atlanta - all in the same match!

6-MAN MAYHEM MATCH
ROH WORLD TV CHAMPION JAY LETHAL VS. HANSON VS. CEDRIC ALEXANDER VS. MICHAEL ELGIN VS. TOMMASO CIAMPA VS. JIMMY JACOBS

Just one week before they challenge for the ROH World Championship, Hanson, Tommaso Ciampa, and Michael Elgin will all battle in the same ring! But joining them will be three other ROH stars, upping the stakes even higher.

On a recent episode of ROH TV, Elgin, Hanson, and Ciampa faced each other in a triple threat match to determine the number one contender to Jay Briscoe's championship. That match had to be thrown out when it devolved into total chaos! "Chaos" remains the name of the game concerning the World Championship, and now Atlanta adds three more hungry athletes into Elgin/Hanson/Ciampa turmoil.

But with these three challengers so wholly focused on each other, could that leave them vulnerable to their other opponents in this Six Mayhem Match on February 21st? Cedric Alexander and Jimmy Jacobs are both looking for a big win to push them into title match consideration. And what better way to grab the attention of ROH officials than pulling out a victory in a huge match like this Six Man Mayhem? Plus, ROH World Television Champion Jay Lethal will also compete - and he's been virtually unstoppable in recent months.

All of these clashing styles and motivations are set to collide in Atlanta in a trademark ROH Six Man Mayhem Match! Don't miss the final build toward Ring of Honor's 13TH ANNIVERSARY! To get your tickets to this stop on the WINTER WARRIORS TOUR, click HERE!

Just watched it. It's f***ing crazy and worth going out of your way to see. The latest episode is great all together and highlights what a badass roster ROH has right now.

I'm fairly positive Moose is gonna have a really successful career. He's got the size and presence, and he and Elgin had a really cool (although sometimes clunky) match together, Moose is coming along pretty well.

6 man bullet club tag match was insane. the finishing stretch holy s***

SYDAL VS ALEXANDER SIGNED FOR LAS VEGAS
Sunday, March 1st, 2015 – Live on Pay Per View



It was on a live interview posted this morning with Mike Johnson on www.pwinsider.com that ROH COO Joe Koff revealed another major match-up that is signed for Ring of Honor's 13th Anniversary Spectacular, live on Pay Per View Sunday March 1, 2015 in Las Vegas, Nevada. Its #Reborn against the individual most have projected as being a future champion in Ring of Honor. It is Matt Sydal taking on the very gifted Cedric Alexander.

These two have a history together as they teamed with ACH to take on The Bullet Club, comprised of "The Phenomenal" AJ Styles & The Young Bucks on a recent episode of Ring of Honor Television. The match is already being talked about as an early match of the year candidate.

To find out when RING OF HONOR WRESTLING airs in your area click HERE, or become a Ringside Member to watch every Monday by clicking HERE.

While they have traveled different paths, they share the same goal of winning a single's title in Ring of Honor. Sydal has had a storied history in Ring of Honor. He has tasted championship gold in ROH as part of the World Tag Team Champions with Christopher Daniels, yet he has never held an individual title.. His return to ROH in 2014 was met with great fan fare and his desire to win championship gold in ROH is at an all time high. As a veteran who definitely has the talent to pull out a victory, can Sydal overcome the obvious talents and hunger of Alexander?

Cedric Alexander is thought by many to be one step away from greatness at any moment. In 2014 he sent notice to the wrestling world with a big wins over Roderick Strong at War of The Worlds and Best in the World. We can now watch the evolution of Cedric. Beating Sydal in a one-on-one match-up with the world watching could be the next step!

Sydal is fighting to get back to the top and Cedric is fighting to get there. It’s a battle of 2 of the most athletically gifted individuals in professional wrestling today. No doubt ROH World Champion Jay Briscoe and ROH World Television Champion Jay Lethal will have eyes on the winner of this one.

Ring of Honor's 13th ANNIVERSARY is without a doubt a must-see event! If you can't be there live, you can watch on Pay-per-View. For a list of provider click HERE. To purchase your tickets for March 1st in Las Vegas, click HERE!

Holy shit Sydal vs Alexander as well! With an already stacked card! Don't want to raise my expectations too high, but potential show of the year right here.

REDRAGON ARE BACK FROM JAPAN & HEADED TO ATLANTA
Saturday, February 21st, 2015 - North Atlanta Trade Center



Bobby Fish & Kyle O'Reilly left the United States to embark on a tour of of Japan on January 28th, 2015 as the reigning IWGP Junior Heavyweight & ROH World Tag Team Champions.

The duo would continue their domination of the tag team world with a string of victories over various combinations featuring young talents such as Sho Tanaka & Yohei Komatsu, proven star KUSHIDA and legends Tiger Mask IV and Jushin "Thunder" Liger.

reDRagon was piling up the wins just as they have done since forming in late 2013. They were primed to defend the IWGP Jr Tag Team Championship in a three way match up featuring The Time Splitters, Alex Shelley & KUSHIDA and The Young Bucks, Nick & Matt Jackson. Riding the wave of victories, Fish & O'Reilly appeared unstoppable. The duo would shockingly lose the IWGP Jr Tag Team Championships without being pinned as The Young Bucks put away KUSHIDA to regain the championships.

'It doesn't surprise us that The Bucks somehow got those titles off us without pinning Kyle or I" said Bobby Fish via telephone from Sendai, Japan. "Those two realized they couldn't beat us last August in Toronto and were still railing from the embarrassment of the live Fish Tank on ROH TV".

"Have no fear, the 2 man smash machine, reDRagon is the still the best tag team on the planet." offered Kyle O'Reilly. "It takes a person with a real lack of character to celebrate winning something that they didn't really win and the Young Bucks are clearly showing a lack of character right now!! Nicholas, Matthew, enjoy your time in the sun. On Sunday March 1, 2015, live on Pay Per View at the 13th Anniversary Spectacular, we will once again prove to you and everyone else that reDRagon is the greatest tag team of this or any era!"

Prior to getting to the 13th Anniversary Spectacular both members of reDRagon will be in singles action as Ring of Honor returns to Atlanta, GA this Saturday, February 21. Bobby Fish will take on the new IWGP Heavyweight Champion "The Phenomenal" AJ Styles in a non-title contest. Kyle O'Reilly will take on likely the hottest singles competitor in Ring of Honor right now, "Mr. ROH" Roderick Strong. As always check back at www.rohwrestling.com for the latest updates to this fantastic card. To purchase ticket click HERE

Though still the ROH World Tag Team Champions, reDRagon is not content to stand still . Regaining the IWGP Junior Heavyweight Tag Team Championship is obviously important. Getting back on track with a successful title defense in Las Vegas will certainly help that cause. The Young Bucks are riding high after regaining the championship and are looking to create history once again by winning the ROH World Tag Team Championships for a second time. You will certainly not want to miss what is going to be an incredible night in this amazing rivalry. Ring of Honor's 13th ANNIVERSARY is without a doubt a must-see event! If you can't be there live, you can watch on Pay-per-View. For a list of providers, click HERE. To purchase your tickets for March 1st in Las Vegas, click HERE!
