ROH News: Big 6-Man Tag Announced For Glory By Honor TV Taping In Philadelphia

Published

While Ring Of Honor will be heading to the UMBC Event Center in Baltimore, Maryland this Friday night for the Glory By Honor pay-per-view, there is still the matter of the Glory By Honor television tapings two days later on Sunday, October 14th in Philadelphia.

No matches had been revealed yet for the television tapings, however yesterday ROH announced the first one as Jonathan Gresham, ROH World Champion Jay Lethal and a mystery partner will square-off with The Kingdom:

The Kingdom Conspiracy has been declared dead and buried as Matt Taven, who for months has been calling himself the Uncrowned Ring of Honor World Champion, now has a purple version of the Ring of Honor World Championship in tow and is calling himself The Real World Champion. Taven’s claim is not without merit: denied of his scheduled title match in Lowell, MA in front of a record crowd filled with friends and family due to an injury to then-World Champion Dalton Castle, Taven then fought Castle, Jay Lethal, and Cody with the title on the line in Fairfax, VA. With the referee checking on a downed Lethal, Taven had the Champion pinned, devoid of any cheap shots, foreign objects, or cheating for over eight seconds.

Lethal would win the World Championship and defend the Championship in the UK against Mark Haskins, against Flip Gordon at All In, against Jonathan Gresham in an Iron Man match, and against Will Ospreay at Death Before Dishonor while Taven would fulfill commitments in Mexico, where he has become one of CMLL’s biggest stars. Taven wrestled in the Main Event of CMLL’s signature 85th Anniversary and has seen his star soar and his stock rise. That rise was marked with a punctuation when Taven and his Kingdom attacked Lethal following his title retention against Ospreay in Vegas. Jonathan Gresham, an opponent Lethal respects and a man with whom he has defeated the Young Bucks, attempted to make the save but the numbers were too much. Now, Lethal and Gresham want revenge and promise to bring a mystery partner to even the odds in Philly!

ROH WORLD CHAMPION JAY LETHAL, JONATHAN GRESHAM, & MYSTERY PARTNER vs. THE KINGDOM (“THE REAL ROH WORLD CHAMPION” MATT TAVEN, TK O’RYAN, & “THE HORROR KING” VINNY MARSEGLIA)

The Kingdom called their shot at Death Before Dishonor. With Matt Taven supposedly in Mexico ahead of his participation in CMLL’s signature yearly event The International Gran Prix and TK O’Ryan and Vinny Marseglia not scheduled to be in Las Vegas, the trio attacked Lethal, Ospreay, and Gresham, attempting to make the save, before unveiling a ROH World Championship with purple leather, claiming it is the real World Championship belt.

With The Kingdom standing tall over the fallen Lethal and Gresham, Taven began to pontificate and mentioned after the Pay Per View broadcast had concluded that he is the Real World Champion and will even defend the Championship as such.

The claim did not stand well with Lethal and, following the beatdown, Lethal wants to get his longtime rival in the ring. The two had a classic rivalry in 2014 over the ROH World Television Championship and the embers have been stoked once again, with Taven defeating Lethal at the end of 2017 and Lethal avenging his loss in May of this year in the UK. But Lethal isn’t alone in looking for revenge – Gresham, who was also left laying, wants to get his hands on The Kingdom! The two say they have the perfect partner and want to give The Kingdom a taste of their own element of surprise in Philly!

Who will Lethal and Gresham bring to Philly to face the two-time ROH World Six-Man Tag Team Champions, a team that includes a man calling himself The Real World Champion? Join us to be the first to find out!

Chairshot News Report: TNA Impact Results, AEW Speculation For Ricochet & Shane McMahon, Vince McMahon, More!

WWE Ricochet AEW

Your Wrestling News for July 5, 2024, including TNA Impact, Ricochet, Shane McMahon, his daddy Vince, and more!

Welcome to your daily dose of pro wrestling news–and analysis you can trust! We take all wrestling news with a grain of salt here at The Chairshot, and we hope to steer you in the right direction.

Results: TNA Impact (July 4, 2024)

Here are your results from Thursday night’s edition of TNA Impact (originally taped on June 28 at the 2300 Arena in Philly):

  • Trey Miguel vs. Leon Slater ends in a no-contest after WWE NXT star Charlie Dempsey attacks everyone.
  • Dani Luna battled Jody Threat to a time limit draw in the 10-Minute Challenge. They were granted the customary “5 more minutes” but were attacked by Alisha Edwards & Masha Slamovich. During the match it was revealed that Nic Nemeth had been attacked backstage.
  • Frankie Kazarian defeated Mike Santana by countout to advance to the TNA World Championship Match at Slammiversary.
  • Matt Hardy & Reby Hardy beat Eddie Edwards & Alisha Edwards.
  • Joe Hendry pinned Jake Something to advance to the TNA World Championship Match at Slammiversary.

No surprise that Joe Hendry advanced to the world title match, but Santana-Kazarian could have gone either way. A promo video to end the show implied that Kazarian was the one who took out Nic Nemeth backstage, seemingly creating a story for them within the Slammiversary title match. No shocker that The Hardys won the tag team match, but a great surprise with Charlie Dempsey getting involved in the opener. That TNA/NXT collaboration continues to be a lot of fun.

You can catch Andrew’s Review of the event here.

Ricochet Expected To Sign With AEW

Many outlets are reporting that Ricochet’s expected landing spot remains AEW, with additional reports surfacing that his agent has been working out the details on his behalf.

Personally, I’d rather see him back in WWE. Even after an initial push in AEW, he will be a novelty act much like PAC, so I don’t see the difference. But if he’s going to AEW, here’s hoping that agent does a great job and secures quite the bag for ol’ Ric.

Vince Russo Suggests Shane McMahon As A Front Man For Vince McMahon to Purchase AEW

”We saw this with WCW, it happened before. It (purchasing AEW) could be under the guise of Shane, that’s what I’m saying. Shane is as clean as whistle. Vince could be behind it without anybody knowing it, bro.”

Those are the words of Vince Russo, who on the surface seems to be spouting nonsense. Time will tell if there is something to it all, but I wouldn’t place any wagers on this one. Shane McMahon to AEW would be an entertaining shocker, but that–like many things in AEW–would quickly wear off.

Shawn Michaels Discusses NXT Releases, Referencing Drew Gulak

During the NXT Heatwave media call, Shawn Michaels was asked about the release of Gable Steveson, but also lumped Drew Gulak in his response about main roster viability:

“From my understanding, nothing on anyone’s part other than contracts being up. Certainly, in the place of Drew Gulak. From a company standpoint, there not being anything from a main roster standpoint that they were going to be using him in. In NXT, over the last year and a half to two years, we’ve been trying to get into the process of keeping it fluid. It’s all about getting to the main roster when everything is said and done. In two or three years, if that doesn’t happen, we bring other people in or see if we’re ready to move on.”

If anything, it’s a stark reminder that NXT still exists to, above all else, populate the main roster. It’s quite the delicate balance between booking your own television show and preparing for the future, one that HBK has arguably done better than Triple H himself.

Other Odds & Ends:

  • According to reports, the mini-stroke referenced by Britt Baker (DMD) on AEW Dynamite is legitimate. If so, both she and Adam Cole have been through a ton over the past 24 months.
  • Mason Madden (Mace) and Mansoor, now known as the MxM Collection, showed up in ROH when featured in a vignette on this week’s broadcast. They might not have made it in WWE, but it’s good to see them getting work, and a second chance to make this gimmick their own. YEAH!
  • Cody Rhodes continues to be the ultimate good dude, this time helping a fan who won tickets to Money In The Bank actually attend the event. The fan who won the tickets is in a wheelchair, and there were no more accessible seats left. That was, of course, until Cody got involved. Now the fan can be there and enjoy the show as intended when he won the contest. Cody wins again!

Mitchell’s AEW Continental Classic Update! (11/27/23)

What a start to the tournament!

Published

on

Did your picks win points?

The AEW Continental Classic is underway, with almost everyone competing. Check in here if you haven’t seen the winners and losers of week 1!

Here are your Gold League standings!

  • Jon Moxley: 1-0, 3 points
  • Swerve Strickland: 1-0, 3 points
  • Jay White: 1-0, 3 points
  • Rush: 0-1, 0 points
  • Mark Briscoe: 0-1, 0 points.
  • Jay Lethal: 0-1, 0 points

 

Here are your Blue League standings!

  • Brody King: 1-0, 3 points
  • Claudio Castagnoli: 1-0, 3 points
  • Daniel Garcia: 0-1, 0 points
  • Eddie Kingston: 0-1, 0 points
  • Bryan Danielson: Yet to Compete
  • Andrade El Idolo: Yet to Compete

 

My Thoughts:

Nothing too crazy, nothing too wild, this tournament only just got started. The only disappointing point is that they could not get Bryan “cleared to compete” Saturday night. Not sure how much of that is shoot given the bad eye, but this was kinda the problem of wanting him in the tournament over tons of other choices. Bryan wants to face Okada for WrestleKingdom 18, how is Bryan supposed to do that at his best if he’s also gonna be in a round robin, doing five top level matches in about as many weeks? And it takes away from Andrade being able to do something. Also a little surprised we didn’t even hear from Andrade on Saturday.

Now as we heard on Saturday, round two’s matches are set. Gold League will see Mark Briscoe VS Rush, White VS Swerve, and of course, Moxley VS Lethal. Nice variety there, a couple 0-1 guys facing off, as well as two 1-0 guys, and then 1-0 VS 0-1. No offense to Lethal, but he feels like an 0-2 going up against Moxley. Hard to call the other ones but that’s the fun of it. Meanwhile, Blue League sees Brody VS Claudio in a showdown to be 2-0, then Bryan and Andrade finally jump in, Bryan against Eddie and Andrade against Garcia. Sadly, feels like Eddie and Garcia are going 0-2, no way Tony Khan is booking Bryan and Andrade to lose their first shots.

In fact, that could be half the reason they did wait on those two, that’s almost too good for just a first round opener. But I still would’ve done it, same as NJPW does stuff like that for round robins, which this is all modeled after anyway.
