Random News

- Mark Briscoe apparently re-injured his knee on Friday in Dayton, Ohio. No word yet on if he will miss any ring time.


- ROH beefed up their production values for their PPV taping Saturday night in Chicago. They used a boom camera, several hard camera spots and other things to make the product look better on PPV. This taping will be the first ROH PPV to ever air on Directv in January.


- Ace Steel returned at the Chicago taping and will most likely be used more in the future as new booker Adam Pearce is friends with him.


- There was a ton of fan backlash toward the Friday show in Dayton. The main event was a bait and switch with the ROH World Title not being defended as previously announced and a couple of the matches had lame finishes as well.

Monday, October 27, 2008

Tickets are now on sale. October 27th: Recent reliable sources claim that bitter foes Roderick Strong and Erick Stevens have been seen together recently in intense discussion. When approached, Erick Stevens only smiled and said, “Desperate times...”. October 27th: The Briscoe Brothers have had an open contract for ROH’s Montreal debut for some time. In surprising news, newcomer Kenny Omega has signed the “dotted line” but as of now does not currently have a partner. We’ll have more on this as it develops. October 27th: Kevin Steen is excited for the prospect of becoming a double champion in ROH. If he can somehow outlast his other 2 challengers and supplant Nigel McGuinness in Montreal he’ll accomplish just that. “I’m so proud to be champion for ROH,” Steen said, “but being THE champion would mean that much more. What better a place than in my own stomping grounds to make history.” October 27th: Nigel McGuinness, meanwhile, won’t find anything any easier should be remain champion after Montreal. He’s signed on to face the Necro Butcher in Toronto title match or not. The Butcher has been a one-man wrecking crew since going on his own without the Age of the Fall, and now has McGuinness, and potentially the World Title in his sights. But before he gets that opportunity, he’ll have to get past the challenge of the newest AOTF member, the mammoth Brodie Lee, in Montreal. October 27th: Bryan Danielson has requested a meeting with ROH officials to discuss his involvement in Toronto’s event. October 27th: The Big Ten Sale is back at www.rohwrestling.com.

Dave Meltzer is reporting that the new Ring of Honor booker is former NWA World Heavyweight champion Adam Pearce. Pearce replaces long time ROH booker Gabe Sapolsky, and is apart of a new direction for the Philadelphia based promotion.


Ring of Honor Cary Silkin owner is looking to appeal to a new audience, and wants to move to creative direction to a more 1970's style of wrestling. Silkin felt that the current product didn't appeal to enough wrestling fans. The new direction will feature less high spots, more traditional wrestling, more simple heel vs. babyface booking, and less complexity. The DVD sales based business has started to loss money, and ROH will look to start cutting cost to save money.


The new direction begins on 11/7 in Toronto.
