ROH Newswire For October 13th
Written by ROH Wrestling on Oct 13, 2009 - 1:27:33 PM
October 13th: Thank You very much to the people of Collinsville and Indianapolis for two outstanding events this past weekend. In addition, thank you to the fans and the fine folks at Banana Joe's in St. Louis and the 10th Street Pub in Indianapolis for their hospitality after both events. ROH returns to suburban St. Louis on July 23rd! Tickets are on sale now at www.rohwrestling.com.

October 13th: Tyler Black returned to active competition in a big way over last weekend, securing victory in St. Louis over Chris Hero in a hard fought contest. But in Indianapolis he took it to an entirely different level by winning Survival of the Fittest 2009. The main event final, lasting over 40 minutes, was a brilliant showcase for all 6 men involved, but the two men left at the end shined brightest. Roderick Strong and Black went back-and-forth, with Black finally falling Strong with a series of superkicks. The crowd was on its feet for the majority of the contest, with many pulling for Strong to win the bout. "I can't lie," said Black. "Roddy was unbelievable last weekend. It literally took everything I had to win, and the way Roddy kept fighting back was inspiring. I told him that night that I owed him a rematch, and I will keep my word." Well it didn't take long as ROH officials worked quickly. The rematch is signed for suburban Toronto! It'll be Roderick Strong versus Tyler Black on November 14th!
October 13th: Kenny King was surprised at the aggression that Tyler Black came at him with last Saturday in Indianapolis. "I didn't expect a big softy like Tyler to act so hard," said King. "I know he's still in mourning because I took out his uncle Jerry (Lynn), so I guess I should have expected it. But I really expected that he'd end up hurt and unable to compete because that seems to be his M.O. lately. But whatever, he got lucky and won that match, it's cool. I bet you can't catch me slippin' again, Tyler. I challenge you to face me in Edison. C'mon Tyler, show me how tough you are." ROH officials are awaiting Tyler's response to King's challenge.
October 13th: Kevin Steen sustained a knee injury in Indianapolis and is scheduled to see doctors this week. It is unknown at this point if Steen will miss any time, and we'll have updates as they become available. Holden McNeil takes a look at Steen & El Generico in "Where Do We Go From Here?" at this link.
October 13th: ROH World Tag Team Champion Eddie Edwards is a soldier. Two days after successful surgery to put a steel plate and screws into his broken arm, he was in physical therapy. In fact, doctors declined to put his arm into a hard cast, allowing Edwards to move the still-broken arm much sooner. The initial prognosis was recovery in 6-to-12 weeks, but as it looks now, Edwards should be ready for action much closer to the 6 week mark. ROH officials are closely monitoring this as it relates to the World Tag Team Title situation. Initial reports are that no changes will be made should Edwards remain on path to return sooner than later. More on this as it develops.
October 13th: Edwards' partner in the American Wolves, Davey Richards, has been on fire in 2009, and that roll continued in suburban St. Louis where he and Kenny Omega had one for the ages. With the win, Omega was able to raise his stock. In Indianapolis, Richards fell victim to more games from Austin Aries, who essentially left Davey to the ‘wolves' – and defeat – this time at the hands of the Briscoes. Richards was absolutely livid post-match, but Aries was nowhere to be found. Beyond both excellent matches for Richards over the weekend, one source indicated that Davey was ‘keenly aware' of the top matches over the weekend; keeping tabs on the other top contenders to the ROH Title. We'll have more on this as we go forward.
October 13th: Just signed for Edison, NJ on November 7th: Sonjay Dutt, Erick Stevens, Sara del Rey, Necro Butcher, and Delirious with Daizee Haze!
October 13th: Delirious had a great showing in Collinsville and Indianapolis as well, taking Austin Aries to the limit last Friday and doing well in SOTF. Now Delirious is off to Pro Wrestling NOAH to take part in Autumn Navigation 2009. We will have updates starting next week from Japan as Delirious will face the best Junior Heavyweights NOAH has to offer! Best of luck to Delirious!
October 13th: Everyone at Ring of Honor expresses sincere condolences to the family of Harley Race for the loss of his wife, B.J.
October 13th: We'll be back on Thursday with the first matches for the next set of ROH on HDNet National Television Tapings in Philadelphia on November 5th and 6th, as well as match announcements for our big return to Edison, NJ on November 7th!
