RING OF HONOR NEWSWIRE

June 11th: There was a shocking turn of events last Saturday in Philadelphia. Davey Richards violently left the No Remorse Corps by attacking Roderick Strong. Richards has joined Sweet & Sour Inc. and hired Larry Sweeney as his agent. This will be covered in the next ROH Video Wire. Strong now finds himself at war against Sweet & Sour Inc. We do not know where Rocky Romero stands. Strong insists that he will keep the No Remorse Corps going without Richards.
 
June 11th: Larry Sweeney says he wants to eliminate Strong quickly. He will send Chris Hero after Strong on 6/27 in Dayton. It is official that it will be Roderick Strong vs. Chris Hero when ROH returns to Dayton. Get your tickets now at ROHwrestling.com.
