TWO STARS DEPART RING OF HONOR

Mike Bennett and Maria Kanellis have finished up with Ring of Honor as of yesterday's TV Taping. The pair and ROH were not able to come to terms on a new deal.

Kanellis and Bennett's departure was not really a surprise and their exit had been expected internally within ROH for some time. There were signs dating back at least 4-6 weeks that ROH and the couple were not on the same page after Kanellis wrote on Twitter that ROH was advertising her for dates after her contract was done.

With their departure from ROH, it also likely means that the pair are done with New Japan Pro Wrestling.

While there have been reports floating around Bennett's partner Matt Taven was also done this weekend, those would be incorrect as he is signed with ROH through March or Apil 2016 we are told.

Kanellis and Bennett, when saying their goodbyes, told several different people we heard from that they were TNA-bound and would start with the promotion in January.
