Nigel McGuinness agrees to WWE contract in principle
Categories: nigel mcguinness , pro wrestling , roh , wwe |
Ring of Honor wrestler Nigel McGuinness has agreed to a contract with World Wrestling Entertainment, according to an official ROH press release. McGuinness is the second ROH prominent wrestler in recent weeks to agree to such a deal, coming soon after Bryan Danielson did the same.
The British national was a longtime heel mainstay of Ring of Honor, performing as its Pure Champion before losing the title in a unification match. McGuinness later won the Ring of Honor World championship outright. As with Danielson though, McGuinness had been placed by ROH into a less prominent position over the past several months as he explored outside options.
McGuinness will be allowed to complete his Ring of Honor run over the next month, working the same farewell cards as Danielson in Boston, Philadelphia and New York. ROH management just has to hope against hope that it can either hold on to its remaining top talent or successfully transition to its next generation of wrestlers.

Bryan Danielson agrees to WWE contract in principle
Categories: bryan danielson , pro wrestling , roh , wwe |
Former Ring of Honor champion Bryan Danielson has agreed to a contract in principle with World Wrestling Entertainment, reports ROH's own Web site. Danielson was widely considered the best pure U.S.-based wrestler not already under a deal to WWE or TNA, largely avoiding attempts till now to cash into the spotlight.
The signing comes after rumors that WWE is attempting to siphon off the best ROH talent in response to the ROH's HDNet show having moved to Monday nights, the same night as WWE Raw. Danielson had wrestled recently for ROH without an exclusive contract, allowing him the chance to jump to WWE when this latest opportunity arose. To his credit, he'll still make ROH's September shows.
While some purists are already complaining about the jump, the simple reality is that Danielson deserves the chance to cash in for his much vaunted efforts. With Ring of Honor's shaky financial status, there was simply no guarantee of a future there for him. If Danielson eventually lands on ECW or Smackdown, viewers should still get the chance to see quality wrestling from him. That's the important thing.

"ROH on HDNet" to make Monday slot debut
Categories: hdnet , pro wrestling , roh , television |
The weekly Ring of Honor Wrestling television program is set to make its Monday night debut this August 17 for HDNet, nine days after concluding its run on Saturdays, in an attempt to broaden its audience beyond its cult base.
Ring of Honor hopes not only to establish itself as the "wrestling" alternative to the more "entertainment" oriented WWE but to also piggyback off the preexisting "WWE Raw" audience. ROH will air in the 8 p.m. EDT slot, the hour before Raw for eastern/central U.S. viewers with a replay at 11 p.m. EDT. For west coasters, that means airings at 5 and 8 p.m. Pacific time.
The initial Monday episode will feature Tyler Black against Nigel McGuinness in a battle of long time Ring of Honor rivals. Kevin Steen will face Eddie Edwards in the promoted semi-main event matchup.

Ring of Honor's HDNet program to move to Monday nights
Categories: hdnet , pro wrestling , roh , television |
Ring of Honor Wrestling's weekly HDNet television program will be moved from Saturday to Monday nights, effective this August 17. Maintaining an 8 p.m. Eastern time slot, "ROH on HDNet" will effectively serve as a surrogate lead-in to "WWE Raw."
The official ROH/HDNet joint press release exclaimed that "pro wrestling returns to Monday night," a spin on the Ring of Honor's attempt to serve a more purist professional wrestling product than the entertainment-oriented Raw.
To be sure, HDNet should get at least a minor increase in the viewership of ROH wrestling from the jump away from Saturdays. However, what remains unaddressed are the continuing issues that HDNet has in securing carriage on the major cable systems. Without such access, the impact of this move will be limited.

Austin Aries new ROH champion, wins three-way match
Categories: austin aries , jerry lynn , pro wrestling , roh |
Austin Aries won a three-way match against both defending champion Jerry Lynn and challenger Tyler Black to win the Ring of Honor title. The title won at Manhattan Mayhem III in New York is the second for Aries as he became the first two-time ROH Champion in company history.
Black had earlier pinned Lynn to eliminate the veteran champion's title reign but could not complete the victory in the three-way elimination bout. The top heel Aries defeated rising babyface Black with a brainbuster to claim the title. PWInsider.com noted in its writeup that Aries had won his first title over Samoa Joe with the same finisher.
Lynn's earlier booking as champion had been heavily criticized by longtime ROH fans who didn't appreciate (or want to appreciate) its significance. Ironically, the same longtime supporters have generally backed the title change to Aries despite (or because) of his being a swarmy heel character. ROH is really a different sort of promotion in that way.
Any hopes that Ring of Honor can pull out of its post-Saplosky malaise now rest on Aries' ability to draw in core fans who want to see him as champion and casual fans willing to back Tyler Black's efforts to beat him.
