"Ring Of Honor's third PPV, "Man Up"....was from a wrestling standpoint, up there with the best PPVs of all time. Seriously." - Dave Meltzer, 12/3/07 Wrestling Observer Newsletter
"After hearing about this PPV for months, it was exciting to finally see if ROH could live up to the hype, and they certainly delivered. Specifically, the Briscoes vs. Steen & Generico exceeded months of hype to deliver the tag match of the year and a top five contender for overall match of the year....This might have cemented Briscoes vs. Steen & Generico as feud of the year in pro wrestling." - James Caldwell, PWTorch.com
"Order the Ring Of Honor pay-per-view. Order it. Order it. Order it....Morishima vs. Danielson is incredible to watch....I can't endorse this one enough....I really think it's worth checking out" - Buck Woodward, PWInsiderelite.com hotline.

December 4th: There is no date yet for when the "Trios Tournament" will be rescheduled. The "Trios Tournament" was canceled in Chicago due to severe travel problems due to ice on the roads. Some wrestlers didn't arrive at the building until after belltime. Others were involved in a car accident and never made the event. We are relieved to report that besides some bumps and bruises everyone is ok from the car accident. We want to thank the fans of Chicago for understanding the circumstances that led to "Unscripted III" and for being a great crowd. ROH is at its best when it faces adversity and that is because of the support of the fans. ROH is set for its return to Chicago on 1/26. Already signed is ROH World Champion Nigel McGuinness vs. FIP World Heavyweight Champion Roderick Strong. We won't know the stipulation or what titles are on the line, if any, in this match until January. Great tickets still remain for 1/26 now at ROHwrestling.com. Save 15-20% on tickets until Thursday morning at ROHwrestling.com.

December 4th: It is with great sadness that we have to report the loss of Tammie and Joseph Hamaoui. She was a big part of the ROH/FIP family. Tammie was the wife of FIP promoter/ROH production staff member Sal Hamaoui. FIP has postponed live events until further notice. Condolences can be sent to: Moss Feaster,
13401 Indian Rocks Road, Largo, FL 33774. ROH/FIP booker Gabe Sapolsky had the following to say about Tammie:
"Tammie Hamaoui was a truly wonderful person. She made my life easier and welcomed me into her home. Her life was disrupted regularly for ROH production and FIP. She greeted every imposition with a smile. She made it possible for Sal to work countless hours throughout the day and night on ROH and FIP. She treated everyone with respect and courtesy. She showed appreciation to every fan who bought a ticket from her at the front desk or drink at the food counter at FIP events. She lived her life for her kids and loved them with her entire heart and soul. She will be missed by many, especially her son Anthony, 10, and daughter Alicia, 12. The world lost a saint. Sal asks that you keep her and Joseph in your prayers."
