That bit on management not being happy with Nana is interesting, though it seems really early to be teasing that kind of tension. From a storyline perspective, it is curious that Nana brought in Outlaw Inc, which seems to be counter to the direction Nigel is going. With Outlaw Inc. and Jimmy Jacobs both having problems with Nigel, and potentially Jay Briscoe when he returns, it could be quite interesting but I hope they don't turn it into a "destroy" ROH angle so soon after SCUM. If it's mostly focused on Nigel's role as a matchmaker, I could live with that (though even that seems too similar to Steen vs Cornette). I don't know... I'm more than willing to see where this goes, but right now the possibilities don't feel very fresh to me.

- This past Friday & Saturday night Ring of Honor brought the best pro wrestling on the planet to Chattanooga, TN and Birmingham, AL! We want to thank everyone who supported us over the weekend and we appreciate all of the great feedback. These events will be available very soon on VOD.

- Ring of Honor is back on the road to Philadelphia on Friday September 20th and Saturday the 21st for “Death Before Dishonor XI”! This will be one of the most important weekends in the history of ROH and we invite everyone to attend and witness history unfold. It will be the moment of a lifetime for either Michael Elgin, Kevin Steen, Adam Cole, or Tommaso Ciampa as one of them will enter Saturday as the new ROH World Champion. Click HERE for an updated look at the ROH World Championship Tournament brackets and join us in Philadelphia for the moment of a lifetime!

- Two title matches have officially been confirmed for Saturday September 20th as World TV Champion Matt Taven defends against Jay Lethal and the World Tag Team Champions reDRagon (Kyle O'Reilly & Bobby Fish) defend against C&C Wrestle Factory (Caprice Coleman & Cedric Alexander) and The Forever Hooligans (Rocky Romero & Alex Koslov) in a Triple Threat Tag Team Match! Tickets for our first ever “Ring of Honor Wrestling” TV Taping in Philly are available HERE.

- The Barrister R.D. Evans returns from his injury at “Death Before Dishonor” and is looking for revenge. With Evans recently away from his offices, Veda Scott has helped ease the load by handling the affairs of "God's Gift" QT Marshall as well as handling a majority of Evans legal paperwork.

- Ricky Marvin is excited to make his ROH US debut at "Death Before Dishonor" and officials are just as excited to see how his style translates in an ROH ring. Both of his matches over the weekend against Roderick Strong and Davey Richard could possibly steal the show.

- As we know Jay Briscoe will present the ROH World Title belt to the winner of the tournament. Jay Briscoe is still a few months away from being cleared to wrestle but his brother Mark will be in action on September 21st in Philly!

- What does Outlaw Inc. have planned for Philly?


- This week on "Ring of Honor Wrestling" TV the ROH World Championship Tournament continues as Jay Lethal faces Adam Cole in a Quarter-Final match! Plus Kevin Steen battles Brian Kendrick and Roderick Strong goes one-on-one with Matt Taven in First Round Matches. Click HERE to see if ROH airs in your area.

- ROH World TV Champion Matt Taven has not been very successful during non-title matches and Truth Martini recently let him know after his loss against Jay Lethal last Saturday in Birmingham. It is known that Truth Martini has requested that Taven's championship be up for grabs at all times in order to motivate the current champion. Nigel has yet to respond to Martini's request.

- The latest DVD to hit the ROH Store is "Manhattan Mayhem V" from New York City. Top matches include The American Wolves defending their newly won World Tag Team Titles against reDRagon, a first time ever dream tag team match with The Young Bucks vs. The Forever Hooligans, and three Quarter Final matches in the ROH World Title Tournament with Karl Anderson vs. Michael Elgin, Kevin Steen vs. Roderick Strong, and Tommaso Ciampa vs. Michael Bennett! Plus much more including extras and commentary from Prince Nana and Kevin Kelly! Click here to order yours now!

- Also, the new ROH "DESIRE" Logo T-Shirt is available for purchase right HERE.

- Michael Bennett scored one of the biggest wins of his career last Saturday in Birmingham against former ROH World Champion Davey Richards. ROH officials have taken notice and, especially with Maria in the ear of the office, it is hard not to take notice of a man who can defeat Richards. Bennett wants more competition and has went on record claiming to have the best Piledriver in all of pro wrestling.

- Speaking of Davey Richards, Davey will be touring England during the month of October while partner Eddie Edwards heads to Pro Wrestling NOAH in Japan.

- The Ringmasters Challenge between Roderick Strong and Adam Cole last Saturday was definitely a test of endurance, skill and heart. Two of the best collided and while Cole did nothing "wrong", his method of attaining victory was once again questionable.

- Kyle O'Reilly and Cedric Alexander had a fantastic one-on-one showdown last Friday in Chattanooga and it is a match that you definitely want to see.

- Despite their losing effort, Alabama Attitude (Mike Posey & Corey Hollis) impressed over the weekend as a team and look better every time they compete.


- The Honor Rumble returns on September 28th in Hopkins, MN and the winner of the Honor Rumble will get an Instant Reward in the form of an ROH World Championship bout the same night! The four men still involved in the World Title Tournament (Tommaso Ciampa, Kevin Steen, Adam Cole, and Michael Elgin) will NOT be participants in the Honor Rumble but we can confirm that previous Honor Rumble winner Jay Lethal will compete. What a fun night it will be and you can get your tickets right HERE.

- We want to take the time to give a special thanks to all of the great fans who watch our television show each week making it a ratings success! The loyal fans watching on WLOS in the Ashville, NC and Spartanburg, SC area and WRLH in Richmond have made us a huge hit and we appreciate it. Our show continues to draw rave reviews and we are proud of the continuous growth and quality of our presentation. If you want true pro wrestling then this is your show!

- The latest edition of "Ring of Honor Wrestling" TV is now available to Ringside Members and we invade Toronto with the ROH World Championship Tournament raging on! The First Round matches airing on this episode include "Unbreakable" Michael Elgin vs. Paul London, Michael Bennett vs. BJ Whitmer, and Tommaso Ciampa vs. Silas Young! If you are not a Ringside Member, but would like to become one click HERE.

- The next ROH Try-out/Seminar Camp will take place on Saturday December 7th & Sunday December 8th at the ROH Dojo in Bristol, PA. If you are a pro wrestler looking for valuable advice then this is the place to be. We have a fantastic system with fantastic instructors and we guarantee a wonderful experience! Please click HERE for more information.

Can we not have Bennet piledrive anymore? or just for like, ya know, a few months? It kinda looks bad.
Also, RoH need to start proofing their copy. It looks really bad.

- Last Friday's DEATH BEFORE DISHONOR XI is now Available for On Demand Viewing at just $14.95 right HERE. Plus you can add the DVD for only $9.95 more!

- Ring of Honor returned home to Philadelphia & The National Guard Armory last Friday night, September 20th, for “Death Before Dishonor XI” and a new World Champion was crowned as the tournament came to an unforgettable end. Adam Cole defeated Michael Elgin honorably, in the middle of the ring, to become the 19th World Champion! Following the match, Jay Briscoe, like a man, presented the new champion with the title belt and even shook Cole's hand...but when Jay turned around, Cole super kicked him in the back of the head and then nailed Elgin with the title belt across the face in a dishonorable act that will never be forgotten!

- During the tournament finals last Friday night at “Death Before Dishonor XI”, Michael Elgin hit Cole with the Elgin Bomb but Todd Sinclair was clipped by Cole's feet on his way up which briefly rendered him unable to make a three count. Many people feel that this would have undoubtedly been the end if the referee was accidentally hit. After watching the replay, ROH officials do not hold Todd Sinclair accountable given the positioning in which both men abruptly turned during the course of the move. Cole's shoulders were obviously down for 3 seconds and the question remains whether Cole would have kicked out if the ref was in place?

- Former World Champion Jay Briscoe will be in the house THIS Saturday night Hopkins, MN! Jay will not be cleared to wrestle or eligible to return to ROH action until November but Jay will be there and he has something to say.

- Tommaso Ciampa spent the night before his wedding in the hospital as a result of Adam Cole repeatedly kicking Ciampa in the head while having him locked in the Figure Four. Ciampa's knee was aggravated plus he suffered a concussion during his war with Cole. Ciampa took it to the next level in Philly and will return to ROH action on October 26th at "Glory by Honor XII" in Chicago Ridge, IL.

- Before the show started last Friday night at “Death Before Dishonor XI”, Steve Corino entered the building demanding his reinstatement and was thrown out by security. Due to the entertainment value of Corino's delusional antics we will include this as an extra on the DVD release.

- Last Friday BJ Whitmer announced that he was choosing to end his in-ring wrestling career due to injury. BJ Whitmer is the toughest man in ROH history as well as a locker room leader. We will miss BJ and his contribution to ROH will never be forgotten. Fans that are wishing to send positive thoughts to BJ can send them to @BJ_Whitmer on Twitter.

- After Whitmer sadly announced his retirement from in-ring competition and thanked the fans last Friday, he did a surprising thing by calling Jimmy Jacobs out to the ring. BJ made it clear that without Jimmy Jacobs there would be no BJ Whitmer and despite their heated past, Jimmy has been by Whitmer's side since he was injured in Toronto. Whitmer explained that if Jimmy didn't stop Steve Corino during Steel Cage Warfare, then Corino would have set the ring on fire. Whitmer asked Match Maker Nigel McGuinness to give Jacobs an opportunity and not let the career of 2 men come to an end. Taken aback, Nigel acquiesced and stated that Jimmy would get his opportunity to prove himself starting the following night during the ROH TV Tapings. That night he faced off with Silas Young in a bout that will air on the October 26th edition of ROH TV and, as it turns out, it will mark the first of five Trial Series matches for Jacobs. Nigel said that should Jacobs be victorious in three of those five bouts, he will be awarded a World Title match on November 15th when ROH returns to Jimmy's home state of Michigan! When asked why he would offer Jacobs this fantastic opportunity at gold Nigel responded with "Any man who can get though 3 of the 5 men that he has to face in an honorable fashion deserves a shot. It is motivation for Jacobs to do the right thing and channel his energy toward honor."

- This week on "Ring of Honor Wrestling" TV the ROH World Championship Tournament continues with the Semi-Finals from Philadelphia! "Unbreakable" Michael Elgin faces Kevin Steen and Adam Cole battles Tommaso Ciampa in a quest for the gold!

- THIS Saturday night Ring of Honor heads to The Eisenhower Center in Hopkins, MN for a big live event featuring a World Title Match, a TV Title Match, the debut of a highly demanded tag team, and a lot more! To view the entire card click HERE and you can get your tickets right now HERE.

- This Saturday the ROH TV Title will be defended in a Triple Threat match as champion Matt Taven defends against Davey Richards and Roderick Strong. Truth Martini recently went to Match Maker Nigel McGuinness petitioning that all of Taven's matches be TV title matches in order to light a fire under him. Nigel has agreed to make this Saturday's bout for the TV Title and if the title changes hands we will air it on ROH TV! Davey Richards & Roderick Strong have both defeated Taven at recent ROH events and we could easily see history made in this match. Also note that Truth Martini will NOT be in Minnesota!

- In the main event on Saturday night October 5th in Baltimore it will be a dream tag match pitting reDRagon (Bobby Fish & Kyle O'Reilly) against Michael Elgin & Jay Lethal and, at the request of the champions, the World Tag Team Titles WILL be on the line! Will the ROH Faithful in Baltimore see a repeat of Providence? Be there in Baltimore to find out by purchasing tickets HERE.

- JUST SIGNED for October 5th in Baltimore it will be ACH vs. Kevin Steen!

- Last Friday in Philadelphia, Cedric Alexander pinned ROH Tag Team Champion Kyle O'Reilly after hitting Overtime. C & C Wrestle Factory can get the job done but luck has not been on their side in Championship matches. It cannot be denied that every time they challenge for the belts there seems to be an unlucky distraction keeping them from attaining their ultimate dream.

- On Saturday night February 8th, 2014 ROH returns to The Alamo State for another big live event! That night we head back to the San Antonio Shrine Auditorium, located at 901 North Loop 1604 West, San Antonio TX, 78232 with a 7:30pm bell time. Tickets for this 2/8/14 event are on-sale NOW for Ringside Members and on Friday September 27th at 10am EST for the General Public. If you're in the San Antonio area, make sure you catch “Ring of Honor Wrestling” every Sunday at 5pm on KABB and every Saturday on KMYS at 9pm!

- 5 new t-shirts have hit the ROH Store...
Kevin Steen "Package Piledrive Everybody" T-shirt is available HERE.
Tribute To Philly Wrestling T-shirt is available HERE.
Jay Briscoe "Wage War" T-shirt is available HERE.
Mark Briscoe Has A Posse T-shirt is available HERE.
Michael Bennett T-shirt is available HERE.

- The latest DVD to hit the ROH Store is a 2-disc set presenting some of the best action that has gone down on "Ring of Honor Wrestling" TV since our 2011 debut through the 100th episode that aired in August 2013. This is a great addition to your collection that we highly recommend. Order today right HERE.

- The latest edition of "Ring of Honor Wrestling" TV is now available to Ringside Members and the ROH World Championship Tournament continues with 3 big Quarter Final matches! "Unbreakable" Michael Elgin suffered a rare loss in New York City last April and he has the chance to even the score against "Machine Gun" Karl Anderson! In addition, Michael Bennett faces Tommaso Ciampa and Roderick Strong battles Kevin Steen.

- To see how you can sign up for Ringside Membership for as low as $7.99 per month click HERE! In addition to advance ticket sales, you also will save 15% off your merchandise purchases, have early access to ROH TV every week, and much more!

- If you are hesitant on becoming a Ringside Member then become a GA Member for FREE right HERE.

- The main event of "Glory by Honor XII" on October 26th in Chicago Ridge, IL will be a Champions vs. All-Stars 8-Man Elimination Tag Team Match! The match will have a 2 hour time limit and if anybody eliminates the World Champion then they will receive a future World Title shot. More details will be available soon but this has the makings of being an unbelievable contest. Order your tickets for our return to the Windy City right HERE.
Well, PWG did beat ROH to announcing Kevin Steen vs. ACH first, but ROH will be holding it first.

Future Shock reunion in the GBH main event, if reDRagon keep the belts til then. I like this, hopefully it plays an important part of the match, rather than just something Kevin Kelly has to point out for it to get notice, like Jimmy and BJ in the SCUM feud.

At some point, I'd like to see a heel Future Shock tag, just to have it. It doesn't even need much more of an excuse than Bobby Fish is unavailable or has been booked in a big singles match, so Nigel decides to fuck with them because people would be interested.

Truth won't be at the 3-Way? hell yeah. Can be even better now.

ACH vs Steen? YES!
In BM? :cry: .. still should be fun.

I really, really don't care about C&C atm. They lost all the momentum they had in May. Cedric needs get a singles run because I don't see this team going anywhere and he's 100 times better than Caprice.

And Future Shock reunion should be fun. Made me care about the match a little more now. Taven, Fish, O'Reilly and Cole all in the same team sounds entertaining as hell.

Ignoring that they've lost momentum, Caprice has sadly lost the ability to be good and interesting in the ring. He always looks so uncoordinated and half his stuff doesn't land right or look like it hurts.

I'd be really into turning them heel and Caprice managing Cedric. I don't care if Cedric's good on the mic and been hiding it this whole time, but Caprice is too good a talker to get rid of. But he just sucks in the ring now.

It would really be hot-shotting the belts, but it could be interesting if Lethal and Elgin win the tag titles. It would mix things up, and give Elgin something to do until Cole is done with Briscoe. It could also add to the 8-man by having Elgin and Cole on the same team. Hell, you could go further and have Davey take the TV title (I can see this happening to give him the triple crown too), make the 8-man as Cole, Davey, Lethal and Elgin vs reDRagon, Eddie, and Strong. Would add some interesting dynamics that I think could make it a great match

And (I haven't seen anything after ASE yet) am I the only one who could see Davey going out on his own as a more playful heel, and Eddie forming the DojoBros in ROH with Strong? Would be something a bit more fresh, and give Strong something to do again rather than just floating about.

Oh hell yeah that'd be absoltuely awesome, I love heel Davey and the Dojo Bros could be a great addition to the tag divison and gives both Strong and Edwards a purpose

- Last Saturday night Ring of Honor returned to The Du Burns Arena in Baltimore, MD for the final time in 2013 and it turned out to be another fantastic night of wrestling!

- Thank you to all of our Baltimore fans who have helped make The Du Burns Arena one of our favorite spots.

- You never know what is going to happen at an ROH event as Roderick Strong surprised everyone when he interrupted ROH World Champion Adam Cole's interview last Saturday in Baltimore. Strong said that he and Cole have unfinished business as they have done battle 6 times in ROH and they are 3 & 3. Strong laid down the challenge and although Cole refused, Strong had an ace up his sleeve! He had already been to Nigel McGuinness and the Match Maker set the World Title match for the main event! The fantastic No DQ/No Countout main event rocked the house however Strong came up short and Adam Cole was successful in his second defense.

- Speaking of never knowing what is going to happen at an ROH event, Heather McBain and Justin Scartocci got engaged at last Saturday's ROH event in the middle of the ring! Congratulations to Heather and Justin!

- Although ACH lost, many are saying that Kevin Steen vs. ACH from last Saturday was ACH's best match in ROH to date.

- Ring of Honor returns on October 26th to Chicago Ridge, IL for “Glory by Honor XII” and the main event is a ROH Champions vs. ROH All-Stars 8-Man Elimination tag with ROH World Champion Adam Cole, World Tag Team Champions reDRagon (Kyle O'Reilly & Bobby Fish), and World TV Champion Matt Taven versus “Unbreakable” Michael Elgin, Jay Lethal, and C&C Wrestle Factory (Caprice Coleman & Cedric Alexander)! There is a great deal riding on this 2-Hour time limit bout. Should anyone on the All-Star team pin the World Champion , they will then receive a future World Title opportunity! You know that both Elgin and Lethal, especially Elgin, would love another crack at the title. This match is what ROH is all about! Tickets are on-sale now!

- Caprice Coleman & Cedric Alexander are slated to receive another Tag Team Title match very soon. C&C have been asking for a straight 2-on-2 shot at the belts without distractions since there is always some outside factor coming into play during title bouts. Caprice has said that it is NOW or never.

- On October 26th at "Glory by Honor XII" we will have a very special autograph signing with Lisa Marie Varon! Lisa has been around the world and competed against the very best women in the wrestling world, and now she is coming to Ring of Honor! Specific details will be available shortly but we can tell you that she will be available prior to the start of the event to meet with the ROH faithful in Chicago Ridge! Don't forget that you can also catch all the action from the best pro wrestling company on the planet every Wednesday night at The Squared Circle in Chicago! For more information head on over to The Squared Circle's website or follow them on Twitter @theSQDcircle!

- Jimmy Jacobs is now 1-2 in his Trial Series and will face Adam Page at Glory by Honor XII in his fourth bout. Remember, Jimmy must win three bouts to earn an ROH World Title match when we return to Dearborn, MI on 11/15.

- Mark down November 2nd, 2013 on your calendar as ROH's return to Cincinnati, OH for "The Golden Dream" and it will be HUGE! Adam Cole defends the World Title against former World Champion Kevin Steen!!! Steen defeated Adam Cole in Chattanooga, Steen ran through most of SCUM and put the final nail in the coffin at Steel Cage Warfare, plus Steen has yet to receive a championship rematch since losing to Jay Briscoe. If there is anyone who deserves the next shot it is "Mr. Wrestling" Kevin Steen! Get your tickets HERE for what is sure to be our biggest event to ever hit Cincinnati.

- Also in Cincy, vying for a World TV Title opportunity at "Final Battle 2013" will be former TV Champion Jay Lethal, Mark Briscoe, "The Sicilian Psychopath" Tommaso Ciampa, and Michael Bennett in a 4 Corner Survival! While Mark Briscoe may seem like the odd man out in that equation, he has been in pursuit of the TV Title for quite some time now...his entire life actually. Little known fact, since he was a kid it has always been a dream of Mark's to hold the Television Championship in whatever company he grew up to wrestle for. What a night November 2nd will be.

- Davey Richards in currently in England training at the legendary Snakepit.

- Don't overlook young Adam Page. Many are saying that he could one day be championship material.

- Veda Scott has been annoying a lot of people in the locker room lately. Ever since Barrister R.D. Evans gave her a position in his office she has attempted to solicit business from anybody that has a minor issue or complaint. She is being referred to as an "ambulance chaser."

- We are taping our TV leading to "Final Battle 2013" on November 15th in Dearborn, MI and Saturday, November 16 in Columbus, OH. Both of these events will be loaded! Tickets are available right here in the ROH Store!

- See the brand new ROH Champion Adam Cole this week on "Ring of Honor Wrestling" TV! In addition, Jay Lethal looks to add another TV Title reign to his resume as he challenges Matt Taven. Plus...

- Outlaw Inc. debuts on ROH TV THIS weekend!

- Jay Briscoe is not happy about the main event "Glory by Honor XII" saying "how can you have Champions vs. All-Stars without the real World Champion in it?" Jay is currently suspended from all ROH events until he is medically cleared from his shoulder injury slated to be in November.

- On Friday night April 4th and on the afternoon of April 5th, ROH will invade the John Alario Event Center, located at 2000 Segnett Blvd. in Westwego, LA! The anticipation has been building since we first made the announcement several weeks ago and now we can announce that tickets are on-sale NOW via Ticketmaster.com to Ringside Members and THIS Friday, October 11th to the general public.

- The newest DVD's to hit the ROH Store are "The Road To Greatness" Night 1 & Night 2. These events from Chattanooga, TN and Birmingham, AL feature great matches from top to bottom and you can get them now right HERE.

- Check out this great article by Jean Gaultie called "Ring of Honor: Breeding Ground for Future Wrestling Superstars".
