Following is from the ROH Newswire for March 06, 2008, at ROHwrestling.com…
This Sunday in Philadelphia, The Hangmen Three will face the The Vulture Squad of Ruckus and Jigaw (with Julius Smokes and Mercedes Martinez), with the winning team getting a title shot for the ROH World Tag Team Titles in Orlando. The match in Philidelphia will be filmed for DVD and the Title match in Orlando will be taped for PPV.
Roderick Strong will defend his FIP Championship against Necro Butcher in Edison, NJ on 4/12 with a currently unnamed stipulation. These two butted heads previously at the 6th Anniversary Show in New York City and this rematch is almost guaranteed to be just as brutal.
In fanfest news, all the Dragon Gate stars will be meeting with the fans from 12PM-3PM. The fanfest will feature fifty cent hot dogs and sodas, 30 free copies of “The Backstrech – My First Decade Playing The Game” by Eric Floyd, and various other merchandise for the fans to pick up.
The first match from Ring of Honor’s new “Vaulted Classic” series appears to be CM Punk vs. Homicide from “ROH Gold.”
