March 30th: Larry Sweeney was none too happy to see that Bobby Dempsey survived the first of the two remaining contracts under Sweet-N-Sour control. Now we’ve learned that Sweeney has been scouring the globe for a challenge that Dempsey won’t be able to overcome. When asked where he’s been searching, Sweeney spouted, “Places. All kinds of places. Big places, small places, in between places. I’ve been searching in the deepest, darkest, places too. See you in Houston, Dempsey.”

March 30th: Signed for April 17th in Montreal as part of ROH’s big return to the great white north are two matches. Prince Nana brought Jimmy Rave back to ROH, and Colt Cabana spoiled that return. Nana says it should have been a return to glory, one of reverence. But in New York it wasn’t, so now the “crown jewel” will come to Montreal with a purpose – defeat Cabana and receive the adoration he deserves. It’ll be Cabana versus Rave in Montreal! Also signed for Montreal is a SHIMMER showcase match, pitting Daizee Haze against LuFisto! The Haze just was successful in freeing Delirious from the clutches of the Age of the Fall, and now she’ll tangle with one of Canada’s finest wrestling women!

March 30th: Signed for suburban Toronto on April 18th are two big encounters. Roderick Strong and Jay Briscoe had a fantastic match in suburban St. Louis that saw Roddy earn the victory. The ROH faithful gave both men a standing ovation after the match, and both men shook hands. Briscoe immediately told Roddy that he wanted to run it back, and both men have signed the dotted line for Toronto! It’ll be Strong/Briscoe II on 4/18! Also signed is a special Six Man Tag Team attraction. In Pittsburgh, Austin Aries exposed an alliance of sorts with Kenny King and Rhett Titus. Now they’ll all work together for the first time in ROH as they will oppose the team of Kenny Omega and the ROH World Tag Team Champions, Kevin Steen and El Generico! Aries and Omega have battled on National TV, and the champs have faced, and beaten, Titus and King. This time it’s three-on-three, and it happens on April 18th in Markham! Tickets are now on sale for 30% off to both events in Canada at www.rohwrestling.com!
