RING OF HONOR NEWS AND NOTES

By Mike Johnson on 2012-02-10 08:40:44
Added to the 3/4 Tenth Anniversary Internet PPV in New York City at the Hammerstein Ballroom are Mike Bennett, Maria Kanellis, Michael Elgin and TJ Perkins.  To pre-order the show, which will be headlined by ROH champion Davey Richards & Kyle O'Reilly vs. Adam Cole & Eddie Edwards, click the poster below:

Expect some additonal events to be announced as Internet PPVs once they get past the Showdow in the Sun Wrestlemania weekend Internet PPVs.

Ring of Honor is holding a weekend sale where anyone who buys ROH on HDNet Volume 10 on DVD will receive another Volume of their choice for free.   For details, visit www.rohwrestling.com.

There's lots of talk of the Anniversary show being a springboard to really push Cole and O'Reilly as singles stars for the company.  Their work has been top notch over the last year, so it's certainly deserved.

ROH Final Battle 2011 will be released on DVD this Tuesday.

ROH announced there will be a meet and greet with the roster Fort Lauderdale weekend.

Last weekend's ROH on Sinclair TV is now available for all Ringside members on www.rohwrestling.com.  The paid Ringside Membership has added a number of titles to their VOD section, including the 2002 Crowning A Champion event which featured Low Ki winning the ROH title in an incredible four way match.  I think the Murphy Rec Center was 120 degrees that night and Christopher Daniels, Ki, Doug Williams and Spanky (Brian Kendrick) were beyond impressive working a 60 minute match under those conditions. 

There are plans for some additional CHIKARA appearances at events to build toward the 4/28 double header in Chicago Ridge, IL.

As we noted a few week of so ago, Rhett Titus is scheduled to return to the ring the first weekend of March at the 3/3 Baltimore, MD TV Taping and 3/4 NYC Internet PPV.

Jim Cornette will be bringing a ROH challenger to face NWA champion Adam Pearce onThursday 3/29 NWA Ring Warriors event in Fort Lauderdale.  For details, visit www.ringwarriors.com.  Ring Warriors' Howard Brody goes way back with Cornette, includig helping him close Smoky Mountain Wrestling in the black via an International TV syndication sale for SMW tapes.

*ROH Tag Team champions Jay & Mark Briscoe defend vs. ROH campion Davey Richards & Kyle O'Reilly
