RING OF HONOR NEWSWIRE

February 27th: ROH officials are getting ready to head to the UK for the close of the Fifth Year Festival this Saturday and Sunday in Liverpool. It really shows ROH's growth and means so much to everyone in ROH that the UK fans have made it possible for us to end the 5th birthday party in England. If you thought last year's UK tour was something, wait until you see what ROH has in store for you this weekend. There will be tickets available at the door on both nights. It will be a very emotional weekend as Samoa Joe says goodbye to ROH. Joe wanted to wrestle Homicide in his final match on Sunday. These two have been rivals basically since Joe started in ROH. Their rivalry paved way to a friendship that was built on a mutual respect. Homicide gained the victory when these two last had a singles match in January. Now Joe wants to compete against Homicide one last time in ROH. Saturday night is personal for Joe as he faces Nigel McGuinness. Joe was pinned by Nigel in a tag match last Saturday. Don't forget that Nigel also defeated Joe for the Pure Title in 2005. These two have had issues since Joe has been calling out NOAH. Now they will have one final match on Saturday. This will be positioned as the main event on Saturday's event. For more info on these events check the "Schedule" section on ROHwrestling.com.

 

February 27th: Matt Cross was taken out by the No Remorse Corps of Roderick Strong & Davey Richards last Saturday in Chicago. Austin Aries selected Cross as his tag partner against Strong & Richards earlier on the card. After the match, Strong attacked Cross. Strong powerbombed the already shaken up Cross on a guardrail that was flat across the entrance ramp. Strong has truly showed no remorse recently with his attacks on Aries, Delirious and Cross. It is obvious that Delirious wants revenge on Strong as he chased him in both Dayton and Chicago. This situation is just heating up.

 

February 27th: This weekend will see the ROH World Title defended in Tokyo, Japan while the ROH World Tag Team Titles will be defended in England. Who could have guessed this five years ago when ROH was born at the Murphy Rec Center?
