January 13th: Erick Stevens had a groundbreaking weekend in Boston and Edison as he defeated both Austin Aries and Bryan Danielson to retain his FIP World Heavyweight Title. Stevens credits being a champion as pushing him to up his game and reach the next level. Stevens really showed the fans of Boston and Edison what kind of character he is when he insisted on pinning both of his top notch challengers. Stevens is just getting started. He has agreed to make his already scheduled 1/25 bout in Dayton against Davey Richards a FIP World Heavyweight Title Match. We are watching a young talent emerge in Erick Stevens.
January 13th: The tests for Stevens will continue on 1/26 in Chicago. Austin Aries has challenged Stevens to a Dream Partner Tag Team Match. Stevens has accepted. Aries has revealed his choice to be Bryan Danielson. These two competitive rivals showcased what kind of teamwork they are capable of on 12/30 in Manhattan. Stevens has countered by choosing a man that he teamed up with to gain a big win last time in Chicago. It will be Aries & Danielson vs. Stevens & Jay Briscoe on 1/26 in Chicago. Save 33% on tickets now.
January 13th: One pair of belts that won't be on the line in Manhattan are the Intergender Heavyweight Tag Team Titles Of The World that Larry Sweeney introduced last Saturday in Edison, NJ. Sweeney crowned his clients Chris Hero & Sara Del Rey as the first champions. This is what is known as "agent talk." It is just a ploy so Sweeney can say his clients have more credentials so he can justify raising their fee. Sweeney told ROH officials to raise ticket prices so his new "champions" can be paid more. ROH officials have stood up to Sweeney and told him that they refuse to recognize these obviously ridiculous titles. Sweeney says that we have not heard the last of this issue.
January 13th: ROH World Champion Nigel McGuinness will defend the ROH World Title against Go Shiozaki at the historic Korakuen Hall in Tokyo, Japan on January 20th. Check the article on the main page of www.ROHwrestling.com for much more information including some info on Shiozaki coming to ROH.
January 13th: Jimmy Jacobs & Tyler Black retained the ROH World Tag Team Titles in an insane Ultimate Endurance last Friday in Boston. The match was so wild that ROH wants to bring it to the Midwest. All the factions and teams are running neck-to-neck as challengers. The scheduled Tag Team Scramble in Chicago will now be changed to an Ultimate Endurance. It is elimination rules. The first fall with all four teams is a Tag Team Scramble, the second fall with the remaining three teams will be I Quit and the third fall with the last two teams will be for the ROH World Tag Team Titles. No one can present action like ROH and Ultimate Endurance fueled by faction warfare.
