April 1st: A long standing rivalry has has finally been signed for the April 10th National Television Tapings at the Arena in South Philly. One of wrestling’s most heated rivalries comes to ROH and the first meeting in Ring of Honor between Chris Hero and Eddie Kingston will take place on National Television! Hero recently said=2 0that “now isn’t the time for Eddie Kingston, now is the time for that Young Knockout Kid”. Kingston doesn’t feel that way, and he knows he has to prove himself to the fans of ROH. Kingston told ROH officials that a win over his hated rival will be more than enough to prove to the world that he belongs in Ring of Honor. Hero and Larry Sweeney are not happy about this match, and are protesting to the ROH Booking Committee. We’ll have news on more matches signed for the April 9th and 10th HDNet TV Tapings in the next Newswire.

April 1st: Two big tag team matches have been signed for April 17th in Montreal. The brash team of Kenny King and Rhett Titus have told ROH officials that they are learning more than ever under the tutelage of Austin Aries. Now they’ll get the chance to prove it as they have signed on to face Delirious and The Necro Butcher!  Titus has had his share of run-ins with Necro in the past, and he could be looking for a little retribution! Also signed for April 17th, two huge feuds have apparently come together in one big tag team battle. Tyler Black wants the blood of Jimmy Jacobs on his hands. Brent Albright wants the same from Claudio Castagnoli. Neither Jacobs nor Castagnoli were willing to sign on for a one-on-one encounter, but after a conference call with ROH officials, both men agreed to a tag team match. It seems like both Jacobs and Castagnoli are playing mind games, but its fine as it’ll be Black and Albright facing Jacobs and Castagnoli on April 17th!



April 1st: Speaking of Claudio Castagnoli, he’s signed on for a very high profile encounter in Toronto on April 18th. Castagnoli is fond of letting everyone know that he’s “very European”, and now he’s going to face a proud Chicagoan as it’ll be Castagnoli versus Colt Cabana in suburban Toronto! Cabana made a splash in his ROH return, and now he’s making moves to climb the ROH ladder once again. A victory over Castagnoli would do wonders to raise his stock!



April 1st: Also signed for April 18th in Markham is a serious grudge match. Delirious fell short in his bid for revenge against Jimmy Jacobs in Indianapolis on March 14. Now he’ll have another opportunity, as it will be Jacobs/Delirious II on April 18th north of the border. Their first encounter was a No Disqualification battle that saw Jacobs drive the Masked Lizard Man through a table before locking in his dreaded Guillotine Choke for the win. Delirious was understandably distraught afterward and now, more than ever, wants revenge. As a result, he’s asked ROH officials for, and been granted, a Markham Street Fight on April 18th!



April 1st: More stars of ROH have been confirmed for the ROH return to Dayton and Chicago on April 24th and 25th. Just signed: The American Wolves with Larry Sweeney, Tyler Black, Austin Aries, Roderick Strong, Jimmy Jacobs, Rhett Titus, and Claudio Castagnoli! We’ll have the first matchups for Dayton and Chicago next week in the Newswire!
