- Lots of big news broke this week at Ring of Honor as we roll into Philadelphia with HDNet to complete the World Television Title Tournament as well as more for the best wrestling television show on the air today! For a special look into the four men still in the running to become the very first ROH World Television Champion, check out
this link! Tickets for this historic weekend will be available at the door in South Philly!
- The main event for "The Big Bang!" in Charlotte has been announced! Tyler Black will defend the ROH World Championship against both Austin Aries and Roderick Strong in Charlotte! ROH on HDNet Executive Producer Jim Cornette made the call; and as everyone will see on this coming Monday's edition on ROH on HDNet, the temperature got very hot and boiled over when the competitors found out! For more on ROH's huge debut in Charlotte, check out this link. The worlds of Ring of Honor and Lucha Libre collide in the Queen City on April 3! Get your tickets now at www.rohwrestling.com, or if you can't be there in person, watch it all unfold LIVE on iPPV at www.GoFightLive.tv!
- Fans attending our Phoenix debut on March 26th can now find themselves immersed as part of the "Honor Experience"! As announced at ROHWrestling.com earlier this week, the Honor Experience will feature an entirely FREE meet-and-greet before the 3/26 event with the Stars of Ring of Honor as well as ROH on HDNet Executive Producer Jim Cornette, and just announced, the original Diva – Tammy "Sunny" Sytch! This is your chance to interact with your favorite ROH personalities, with special 8x10 photos will available for purchase to commemorate our Arizona debut. Just another way for us to say ‘thank you' for supporting ROH!
- Fan voting for the big tag team Main Event for March 20th in Ontario has gone to an entirely new level! Over 2,200 votes have been cast since the polls opened, and you wouldn't believe what match types are being suggested! Let your voice be heard at ROHFansVoice@gmail.com! Tell us what kind of match you want Aries and King to face Black and Strong in! Fan voting ends on March 12!
- Tag Team action has been signed for March 20 in suburban Toronto as the six-time ROH World Tag Team Champions, Mark and Jay Briscoe, will take on Players Uno and Dos – The Super Smash Brothers! Remember that this is only one day removed from the huge Six-Man-Tag in Michigan where the Briscoes will team with Tyler Black to face the American Wolves and Chris Hero. Will the brothers Briscoe come into Canada at 100%? The Smash Brothers are no strangers to upsets; can they take advantage and score the win of their wrestling lives to earn a shot at the World Tag Team Championship?
- Pick 6 action has been signed for Dearborn, Michigan on March 19th. After a great showing versus Tyler Black back at "Death Before Dishonor VII, Night Two", the impressive Tyson Dux returns to Ring of Honor action against "The Pretty Boy Pitbull" Kenny King! Can Dux impress once again and get himself into the title mix in ROH, or will King shut him down before he even has the chance to shine? Tickets for Dearborn are on sale now at www.rohwrestling.com!
- The battles between Alex Koslov and Rocky Romero are among some of the best in AAA and fans at "Final Battle 2009" saw them lock horns in a tremendous match that ended in controversy. Did Koslov tap to Romero last December? Koslov says no. This grudge gets settled in Phoenix! Take a look at this video for a sneak peek at what can be expected from these two on March 26th!
- Romero won't be done in Phoenix when his match with Koslov is over. He has signed for singles action on day two in Phoenix on March 27th. "Mr. Azucar" Rocky Romero will oppose Kenny Omega! Omega returns to Ring of Honor after a highly successful Japanese tour for DDT and New Japan, while Romero looks to make a statement in ROH. These two incredible international stars will come together for battle in Phoenix! Can Romero solidify his status in the ranks of ROH, or will Omega show "Azucar" a few tricks he's learned overseas? Get your tickets now and find out!
- Colt Cabana has been the angle on El Generico's shoulder; trying to snap him out of the funk that he's been in since that day in December. It seems that Cabana's method of choice has been competition, and it seems to be slowly working for the generic luchador. On March 27th in Phoenix, Cabana's set up another healthy dose of competition as he and El Generico will oppose the American Wolves! Cabana feel to Eddie Edwards in Round One of the World TV Title Tourney, and Generico fell to Davey Richards in a great match at the "8th Anniversary Show". Both men will see if they can redeem themselves in Phoenix!
- Speaking of Cabana, ROH is happy to support Total Extreme Comedy as they present a night of pro-wrestling comedy at the Gammage Auditorium on the Campus of Arizona State University on Saturday night, March 27th! See Colt Cabana, Bruce "Brother Love" Pritchard, and Mick Foley as they share stories from the road as well as shed their own humorous light on the world of professional wrestling. Fans of Ring of Honor can save 15% on tickets when they go on sale on March 8th by using the ticket code "ROH" at the box office, over the phone, or with Ticketmaster! Thanks to our friends at Total Extreme Comedy for making this available. For more, check out www.totalextremecomedy.com!
