WHITMER UPDATE, NEW GLOBAL WARS PPV BOUT, KOFF ON ROSS REPORT AND MORE ROH NEWS

By Mike Johnson on 2016-04-28 11:42:00

BJ Whitmer passed all his concussion testing earlier this week for doctors at the University of Cincinatti Sports Medicine.

Added to the 5/8 Global Wars PPV is The Young Bucks & The Guerrillas of Destiny vs. KUSHIDA & The Motor City Machineguns & Matt Sydal.  That PPV lineup is ridiculously great.

ROH COO Joe Koff is on  this week's edition of The Ross Report podcast with Jim Ross, talking a number of topics.  Koff noted they would consider moving to two hours at some point.  That idea has been bounced around for awhile internally.  He also noted that if WWE was interested in licensing the ROH archives for the Network, he would be happy to have that conversation.  Note he said license, not buy.  WWE has licensed material from ROH in the past, specifically for the CM Punk documentary.  It's a really good listen at www.JrsBarBQ.com.

Ring of Honor will return to West Warwick, Rhode Island this Saturday at the Civic Center, featuring:

*The Briscoes vs. reDRagon vs. The Motor City Machine Guns.

*ROH champion Jay Lethal w/Taeler Hendrix vs. "INKSanity" Vinny Marseglia 

*The All Night Express (Kenny King & Rhett Titus) vs. The Young Bucks

*Moose vs. Kazarian.

*ACH vs. the debuting Kaimatachi

*Taeler Hendrix vs Sumie Sakai.
