of 19154 for the "Respect Is Earned II" pay-per-view taping.
Belltime is 7:30pm and there will be tickets available at the door. Nothing
beats bleacher seats in Philly at the air conditioned National Guard Armory.
The Philly crowd made "Take No Prisoners" such a special event that
it didn't take ROH officials more than three seconds to decide to tape
"Respect Is Earned II" at the National Guard Armory. ROH hopes that
"Respect Is Earned" will become known as ROH's signature PPV. It is
sure to be another great atmosphere and intense show in Philly so get your
tickets at the door and see the PPV weeks before everyone else.
June 5th: We have late breaking, huge news for this Saturday in Philly. Word

going to crash the PPV taping and confront Ruckus. Now they won't have to
crash the taping. Jigsaw of The Vulture Squad has challenged Kingston to a
match. It will be Kingston vs. Jigsaw this Saturday in Philadelphia. Check the

battlefield in Philly when The Vulture Squad and BLCKOUT collide. Jigsaw will
