For those who have asked, merchandise from G1 Supercard will be available on the ROH website but between shipping the remainder of their inventory back from NYC and then heading back out on the road, there's no timetable as to when.

Bandido's last independent date was the Wrestlecon Mark Hitchcock Supershow a week ago and he is with ROH exclusively going forward.

The $300 registration fee includes each day’s activities plus lunch and critique by the ROH staff. The fee covers both days and there are no refunds issued if you don’t attend both days. Attending both days is crucial to get the full benefit of the teaching and feedback.

All areas of professional wrestling will be covered from in-ring technique to out-of-the-ring attitude and conduct.

We will videotape personal interviews as well as sample promos. We will also be watching each attendee work out in the ring. There will be exhibition matches that will be critiqued in detail.

Conditioning, appearance, mindset and potential will also be evaluated.

We will get a complete look at the talent, and then detail for them either what they’re doing right, or what they need to improve on to make it in Ring of Honor and/or to become an all-around better wrestler.

The attendees who show they have what ROH wants, will be offered opportunities that may include, but are not limited to the possibility of, being booked on live ROH events, being invited to train at the ROH Dojo, or the goal of any attendee... being offered an ROH Developmental Contract.

Due to the overwhelming response to these seminars, acceptance to the ROH Combine is extremely limited.

Rush spoke with SoloWrestling.com about the possibilty of having Los Ingobernables in the United States, commenting, "Sure. I'm gonna stay a lot of time in ROH. A lot. Big plans are comming for the big ingobernable. In Mexico Los Ingobernables were born. We are in Mexico, in Japan and in others parts of the world. It would be great to have them in ROH with wrestlers from the ROH's roster. I'd love to do it during my time here. I'm studying english. I need and I want to form Los Ingobernables here in ROH too". 

Bandido spoke with them about wanting to work with NJPW, noting, "I'd love to. It would be a dream come true to represent Mexico in the Best of the Super Jr or in any other New Japan tournament.   Before signing with ROH it was impossible for me, because you have to be signed to CMLL in Mexico if you wanna do something like that. But now that I have this contract with ROH I hope the partnership helps." 

Bandido also spoke about the possibility of working CMLL in Mexico now that he's contracted exclusively with ROH, noting, "I'd rather do Japan. Actually, I trained in CMLL and they never gave me an oportunity.  When I talked with them, they told me that there was no plan for me, and that's fair. Now I have a bigger name and I'm doing more things, so I think I'm gonna work more outside Mexico now rather than stay there." 

On Flamita potentially coming to ROH, Bandido commented, "I hope Flamita gets an oportinuty soon so they (ROH) can see how good he is and that he can be part of this company. We are working on dates and schedule, but I hope he comes to ROH sooner than later.   That's a proposal I had, the Mexa Blood in ROH, but yeah, that's all the office."
