RING OF HONOR MAY HAVE JUST RUN LAST EVENT BEFORE LIVE FANS IN 2021 AND OTHER NEWS


 

Following tonight's Ring of Honor Death Before Dishonor PPV, the promotion has run its last currently scheduled event in front of a live crowd this year.  There had been plans to run several house shows this fall but the decision was made to hold off on those events due to the COVID-19 Delta variant and concerns over how it may affect touring.

ROH will tape their next rounds of TV tapings before a closed set tomorrow and Tuesday in Philadelphia at the 2300 Arena.  There are also tapings set for November in Baltimore.   


Going forward, decisions will be made on a "week to week" basis as to when they run again before live crowds.

A decision as to whether the promotion's next planned PPV, Final Battle, will be held before live fans has not yet been determined,  That show is tentatively set for Baltimore as well.


Chris Hero was backstage tonight working as a producer for the PPV.

The announced injuries for Jay Lethal, Rhett Titus and Tracy Williams were simply storyline to explain why they were not wrestling on the PPV.  They will be in action at this week's TV tapings.


Jake Atlas, Alex Zayne and Taylor Rust will be taking part in this week's TV tapings. 

Atlas obviously got banged up towards the end of his match with Rust tonight.  


Lenny Leonard was brought in to do commentary for the ROH Women's World title bout at the PPV tonight.  He is not slated to work this week's TV tapings.
