Notes for tonight in Edison:

-LAX of Homicide & Hernandez vs. Jay & Mark Briscoe will be positioned as the main event. LAX proved themselves as the elite in the wrestling business by winning the 30 Minute Iron Team Match last night in Danbury. Homicide couldn’t be happier to be back in a ROH ring and Hernandez was absolutely dominating. Jay & Mark Briscoe are former five time ROH World Tag Team Champions, GHC Jr. Heavyweight Tag Team Champions in NOAH and FIP Tag Team Champions. This will be a battle of force vs. force.

-Tyler Black vs. Jerry Lynn will be a very important match for both individuals, who have momentum after last night in Danbury. Last night saw Tyler Black score perhaps the biggest fall of his career when he pinned former ROH World Champion Homicide in the Iron Team Match. Jerry Lynn defeated Claudio Castagnoli last night as he attempts to move into title contention. Both men need a victory tonight in Edison to keep their momentum going. Black told us last night that he has some words for the fans tonight.

-Just to clarify something, Prince Nana is not back in ROH and we apologize for his disruption during the show last night in Danbury.

-Jimmy Jacobs was making it sound like that he or Tyler Black might wrestle twice tonight in Edison and team with Delirious vs. Cheech & Cloudy.

-Davey Richards scored a huge submission in the Iron Team Match by making ROH World Tag Team Champion Kevin Steen tap out. Steen is nursing a sore knee going into tonight’s match teaming with El Generico against The Osirian Portal. Steen insists he will be ready to wrestle tonight. This is a huge opportunity for The Portal.

-Daizee Haze showed up last night like she just rolled out of bed and was not interested in a match. Instead, she attacked Rhett Titus at every opportunity. Haze did not have any interaction with Delirious last night after the spiking in Steel Cage Warfare last month in Philadelphia (see a clip in the new ROH Video Wire at ROHvideos.com). We still don’t have any comments from Haze about the spiking.

-Speaking of Titus, he was seen coming out of the woman’s locker room late last night after Haze left with a big smile on his face.

-FIP World Heavyweight Champion Go Shiozaki defeated Austin Aries in an almost 25 minute classic last night in Danbury. Both Shiozaki and Aries are banged up after the bout, but they will have to be in peak form tonight. Shiozaki is set to defend the FIP Title tonight against the punishing Necro Butcher. Aries will fight arch enemy Jimmy Jacobs in an Anything Goes Match.
