The professional wrestling world is arguably as healthy as it has been these days since the death of WCW back in 2001 with companies such as Ring Of Honor, New Japan Pro Wrestling and IMPACT Wrestling among others offering an alternative to the WWE, who has had a stranglehold on the business for over 17 years now. Fans who are looking for something outside of WWE will now have another promotion to watch as Ring Warriors has released the following today, announcing they have secured a broadcast deal with WGN America:
