Ring of Honor has officially announced the location for the Death Before Dishonor event.

On Friday afternoon (June 22, 2018), the Baltimore-based promotion revealed that they would this upcoming pay-per-view event at the Orleans Arena in Las Vegas, Nevada on Friday, September 28, 2018. Also, they will hold a TV taping at the same venue the following night.

Tickets for the two events go on sale Wednesday, Aug. 1 at 10 a.m. local time for HonorClub members and Friday, Aug. 3 at 12 p.m. local time for the general public.

It was noted in the announcement that was released that it will mark the third year in a row that Las Vegas has hosted this event.

Although no names were advertised for this show, it was noted that it would feature “all of the top ROH stars.”

The next ROH PPV, Best in the World, is slated to go down on Friday, June 29, 2018 in Baltimore, Maryland at the UMBC Event Center and will be headlined by Dalton Castle defending the ROH World Title against Cody and Marty Scurll in a Triple Threat Match.

Adam Cole has revealed who would be his dream opponent at WrestleMania.

During a recent interview with WFF while in the UK this past week for the NXT UK Championship Tournament, the NXT North American Champion spoke about various topics.

Cole did discuss the pressure of making his debut with the sports entertainment company. If you recall, he made his debut at NXT TakeOver: Brooklyn III last August in Brooklyn, New York at the Barclays Center.

“Very nervous. So, it’s exciting when you think, ‘Okay, I’m going to make my WWE debut in NXT,’ but in my brain, I was a successful independent wrestler for ten years and I had gotten to wrestle all over the world. But WWE is a whole different animal and in my mind I’m thinking, ‘I really, really hope these people care and they know who I am. I hope they react and make noise when I come out.’

Finally, when it did happen and they reacted the way they did, I had such a sense of relief and was just so happy they responded the way they did. It was a big combination of emotions: excitement, nerves, fear, pressure, and all that stuff, but it ended up being one of the best nights of my life.”

It’s just a matter of time before the WWE calls Cole up from NXT to the main roster. Cole also talked about when he is on the main roster, who would he want to wrestle at WrestleMania, which is the biggest event of the year for the sports entertainment company.

“AJ Styles would be my number one pick. The reason being I wrestled him twice before and I didn’t beat him, either time. On top of that, I think AJ is the best pro wrestler that I’ve ever been in the ring with. I think he’s absolutely number one. His ability is just second to none, so to get the chance to wrestle him on that stage would be really cool and on top of that I can beat him. [Laughs]”

The promotion officially announced during a recent episode of their MLW Radio podcast that former WCW United States Champion will be coming out of retirement to compete in a match at the Battle Riot/Fusion TV taping that goes down in New York City on July 19th.

The Battle Riot match is a mash-up of a battle royal, royal rumble and anything goes street fight that will feature 40 wrestlers with new participants entering the ring every 60 seconds.

The way that this match will work is when an elimination can come by pinfall, submission or by throwing an individual over the top rope. The winner of this match is slated to get a World Heavyweight Title Shot in the future.

Several wrestlers have already been announced for the match including John Morrison, Kevin Sullivan, ACH, Davey Boy Smith Jr., Teddy Hart, Rich Swann, Pentagon Jr., Jimmy Yuta, Jake Hager, Swoggle, Lance Anoa’i, and “PCO” Pierre Carl Ouellet.

Konnan appeared to work his final match back in 2013 when he took part in a six-man tag match that saw him team up with El Mariachi and Kafu to beat Derek Sanders, Oliver John and Vaquero Fantasma.

The promotion will be announcing more participants for the match in coming weeks. Tickets for this event start at just $20 and you can buy them at this link.

There is one UFC star who has offered to help train Alexa Bliss for her pending showdown with Ronda Rousey.

That star is UFC Women’s Featherweight Champion Cris Cyborg, who wanted to fight the former UFC Women’s Bantamweight Champion when Rousey was still competing as a pro-MMA fighter.

As noted, Rousey beat Nia Jax by DQ in a WWE RAW Women’s Championship match at the Money in the Bank pay-per-view event once Bliss attacked Rousey. After the match, Bliss cashed in her MITB contract to win the title from Jax.

Moving along to the opening segment on this week’s episode of Monday Night RAW in Grand Rapids, MI at the Van Andel Arena on the USA Network. Rousey attacked Bliss and was later “suspended” for 30 days as a result of her actions.

Rousey will be back on television next month to start the build for her match at the upcoming SummerSlam pay-per-view event.

WWE has yet to officially announce when Rousey would wrestle Bliss but the expectation is that this match will happen sooner rather than later. Cyborg tweeted out the following:

“Let me know # @AlexaBliss_WWE if you need help training Judo takedown and armbar defense!”

Let me know # @AlexaBliss_WWE if you need help training Judo takedown and armbar defense!

If you recall, the sports entertainment company decided to call up the group that consists of Eric Young, Killian Dain, and Alexander Wolfe from NXT to the main roster and placed them on the SmackDown brand shortly after WrestleMania 34 in April.

WWE has aired vignettes to hype their debut since then. They recently made their live event debut earlier this month at a live event in Waco, Texas.

Ring of Honor has made a change to a key match at the upcoming Best in the World PPV.

Now, Martinez will defend the TV Title against Page in a Street Fight at Best in the World.

What are your thoughts on this upcoming match?

Shawn Michaels continues to talk about potentially working another match.

The WWE Hall of Famer recently went on record by stating that he would consider working another match if the opportunity came about.

He did bring up the idea of working a tag team match with Triple H if he did decide to compete one more time in a WWE ring.

While in the UK this week, Michaels spoke with the Daily Star about various topics. In this interview, he continued to talk about his hesitation on working another match at this stage in his life.

“I am guilty of not really wanting to work for a living. To put me in a singles match at [WrestleMania] it’s a very strenuous and anxious process, once you get in there it’s phenomenal,” Michaels said. “But to get ready for it is 100% work, and I don’t want to put myself or my family through that to go out and try and steal the show at 52 for God’s sakes.”

“If you take the younger version of me and put me in with [the younger guys] course it would be a blast,” Michaels said. “But at the same time I would like to be the younger version of me and be the ring with Harley Race and Buddy Rodgers. That’s something that can’t happen in real life. … Fans want me to nip up and have everything look like it’s 1996 or 1997, that’s never gonna happen as Father Time waits on no man.”

The WWE Hall of Famer has had a storied career in the professional industry and will go down as one of the greatest wrestlers of all time.

He has held every big championship that WWE has to offer and had some classic matches as well as a feud with the biggest names in pro wrestling. Those names would include The Undertaker, Steve Austin, Triple H, and Ric Flair.

One WWE star has made his return to in-ring action after being on the sidelines with an injury.

Big Cass is no longer under contract with the WWE.  The company officially announced the news on Tuesday (June 19, 2018):

“WWE has come to terms on the release of William Morrissey (Big Cass).”

Cass was last seen competing in the ring when he suffered a loss to Daniel Bryan in a singles match at Sunday’s (June 17, 2018) WWE Money in the Bank pay-per-view event in Chicago, Illinois at the Allstate Arena on the WWE Network. This marked the big man’s second consecutive PPV loss to Bryan.

As of this writing, there’s no word yet on what led to the WWE making this decision to release him. We’ll be sure to provide an update when we get more details.

ROH will in fact not be holding an event at the world famous Madison Square Garden in New York City next year.

It was revealed in an interview with Sinclair Broadcast Group Inc. CEO Chris Ripley by Baltimore Business Journal that came out just last week that the promotion had plans of holding a show at the arena. However, that won’t be the case.

ROH COO Joe Koff spoke with PWinsider.com on Tuesday (June 19, 2018) to promote the upcoming Best in the World pay-per-view event.

In that interview, Koff revealed that they will not be running an event at MSG due to the arena backing out after talks with the WWE.

“I’m not going to discuss beyond this statement because I am not going to litigate this in the press.  We had a deal with [Madison Square] Garden and they then told us they were backing out after communications from the WWE.  We are not able to get any other dates in any kind of discussion.

I’m expecting that our lawyers will be contacting all the parties involved and the best we can hope is that we can find a resolution, so we can bring the kind of energy and excitement that ROH and our partner New Japan to a bigger audience and to bigger arenas and to the fans of New York City. ”

Although this was not confirmed at the time, the belief was that ROH would hold the event at MSG during WrestleMania 35 weekend.

It’s also been reported that the sports entertainment company was not pleased with MSG over letting ROH secure a date with them, which is most likely why MSG pulled its date with ROH.

Also, Koff was asked if there was even a possibility of a date still on the books with MSG. His response was short and to the point.

“There is no date and the discussion is going to end here on that.”

Sami Zayn will be on the sidelines for the foreseeable future.

This is due to him being injured, according to a report by Mike Johnson of PWinsider.com. The site is reporting that Zayn had been working through an injury and will be taking time off from the road with the WWE to address it.

As of this writing, the nature of his injury has yet to be revealed.

Zayn was last seen when he suffered a loss to Bobby Lashley at Sunday’s (June 17, 2018) WWE Money in the Bank pay-per-view event in Chicago, Illinois at the Allstate Arena on the WWE Network.

He was also not backstage for this week’s episode of Monday Night RAW in Grand Rapids, MI at the Van Andel Arena on the USA Network.

MITB was the last date with the sports entertainment company for Zayn before he took time off.

Now, he’s slated to travel to Birmingham, Alabama this week to be examined. We hope to have more on this story as it develops.

Ronda Rousey has given her reaction to being “suspended” by the WWE.

As we noted earlier on the site, Rousey got her revenge on WWE RAW Women’s Champion Alexa Bliss on this week’s episode of Monday Night RAW in Grand Rapids, MI at the Van Andel Arena on the USA Network by attacking and sending her through a table.

The reason for the beatdown was due to Bliss attacking her during Rousey’s RAW Women’s Title Match against Nia Jax at the Money in the Bank PPV event. It was later announced that Rousey would be suspended for 30 days as a result of her actions.

Following the angle, Rousey took to her official Instagram account to react to the news by writing the following:

“@therealkurtangle I sincerely apologize for my behavior tonight…. Though you were the first to put hands on me, I shouldn’t have let my temper get the best of me….Despite the fact I was cheated, provoked, and disrespected by Alexa… i shouldn’t have been willing to go through you to get to her.

I’ll gladly serve my suspension … but Alexa, know that every moment you don’t see me i am thinking of you and preparing for your comeuppance. So you in 30 days #LittleMissBish.”
