Newswire For The Week Of March 13th!!!
3/14/05
ROH
March 14th: Samoa Joe & Pure Champion Jay Lethal defeated CM Punk & Spanky last Saturday to earn a shot at the ROH Tag Team Titles. The match will take place on 4/2 in Asbury Park, NJ when ROH Tag Team Champions Dan Maff & BJ Whitmer put the belts on the line vs. Joe & Lethal!!!
March 14th: No one knows why Stevie Richards went after CM Punk last Saturday. The only thing that Richards told ROH officials is that he will be back. We aren't sure why especially since Richards is under WWE contract. We will find out when Richards returns to ROH later this week right here in the Newswire at ROHwrestling.com.
March 14th: It's official!!! The 4/2 ROH World Champion Austin Aries vs. Homicide winner will defend the belt on 4/16 in the Boston area against the undefeated James Gibson. The 4/2 Aries vs. Homicide loser will face Bryan Danielson on 4/16.
March 14th: Right now ROH officials are discussing the title petitions to determine who will get a shot at Jay Lethal's Pure Title on 4/16 in Boston. If Lethal & Samoa Joe win the Tag Titles on 4/2, Lethal will have to wrestle twice and defend both belts in the same night.
March 14th: The 2/19 "Third Anniversary Celebration Week: Part 1" double VHS set is now out and ready for immediate delivery from ROHwrestling.com. This home release clocks in at over five hours and features roughly one hour of highlights, which includes clips from every show in ROH's 3rd year. There are also guest appearances on the home release by Jim Cornette and Bobby "The Brain" Heenan. If you order by 3pm at ROHwrestling.com or by calling 215-781-2500 your order goes out that day.
March 14th: There is no more Special K in ROH. Dixie & Azrieal won the name last Saturday by defeating Lacey's team of Izzy & Deranged. In an interview that will be seen on the home release, Dixie & Azrieal dropped the name. They said that Special K represents partying and they are serious about their careers now. Lacey has given her faction of Deranged, Izzy, Cheech and Cloudy a new name. They will now be known as Lacey's Angels. We are seeing Lacey's true colors now as she claims to be ROH's smartest businesswoman.
March 14th: ROH officials have been able to rule out any members of The Embassy for the attack on Jay Lethal backstage on 3/5. Lethal was jumped by someone and had his eye badly swollen. ROH's investigation found that all members of The Embassy had an alibi as they were in Prince Nana's limo eating shrimp cocktails. ROH officials are still looking into the possibility that Nana paid someone to attack Lethal.
March 14th: ROH officials have decided that the 4/2 New Japan USA Best Of American Super Juniors tournament matches will have no bearing on ROH records or title petitions since these are New Japan USA matches as sanctioned by the NWA. Tickets are now on sale for this huge event in the legendary Asbury Park Convention Center. The final two participants will be named this week in the Newswire at ROHwrestling.com. |

Thank all that's holy. I hated Special K, just a useless group of spot monkeys. I guess Aries days are probably numbered since I don't see him retaining against Homicide and James Gibson.
I'd also like to add I got a RoH catelog in the mail this weekend and saw a shoot interview with LIGER!!!
The Last Free Voice - March 15, 2005 12:06 AM (GMT)
Would ROH really put the belt on Gibson? I mean... so soon?
Mad Dog - March 15, 2005 12:15 AM (GMT)
Why not? He's probably the biggest name they currently have on the roster right now. He was pretty over at a time in the WWF before his burial.
And yes I realize Samoa Joe and co. are big names on the indy circuit.
dynamite kido - March 15, 2005 12:39 AM (GMT)
I would REALLY be interested in ROH if they put the belt on Gibson. Anyone know what kind of gimmick he's doing in ROH?

Oh my...Gibson for the RoH title already?! I don't think I care though! If anything, I'm overjoyed!

Richards, Gibson, Cornette, and Heenan!!! This gets only beter!

Well, screw you too, RoH! I should go to the next RoH show in the Boston area and proclaim myself new head of Special K and reform it!

Hey-hey! None of that about Special K! They were my spot monkeys, dammit!
And don't forget what the commentators would say: "If these spoiled rich kid ravers could just go straight, they would be next top talent here in RoH."

Forget Gibson! Put the RoH Title on Richards!

So far he's just "glad to be wrestling" James Gibson.
Though when he wrestled Spanky in Dayton he was wearing Dukes of Hazzard Tights. Seriously. They had the 01 on the ass, and the rebel flag on each side. But he didn't "act" redneck.

I wonder if that's just because of where he left off in the WWE.
whitemilesdavis - March 15, 2005 05:55 PM (GMT)
I could be because the General Lee tights were about the coolest thing I've ever seen.

Seriously.
I'd mark out for Snitsky if he wore Dukes of Hazzard tights. Ok, not really, but there aren't any cooler tights in wrestling. If there was an Oscar for coolest tights, James won it by far.

If you guys are talking about the orange trunks with '01' on the back and the confederate flags on the sides, yes, those rule the world. I think he wore them on Smackdown a couple times last year.

That's the ones. They are by far the best trunks I've EVER seen.

He should start calling them his Daisy Dukes.

Only if his new entrance music would be the sound of the General Lee repeatedly blowing it's horn.
whitemilesdavis - March 16, 2005 02:45 PM (GMT)
Glad to see somebody knows good wrestling. I also think a manager named Boss Hog is in order.
dynamite kido - March 16, 2005 02:59 PM (GMT)
Being accompanied by his manager Boss Hogg and his financial consultant Roscoe P. Coltrain.....
whitemilesdavis - March 16, 2005 03:05 PM (GMT)
That's good stuff. At some point "a mysterious figure from his past" can come haunt him for a while. Enter Crazy Cooter.
Big F'N Swigg - March 17, 2005 02:10 AM (GMT)
I think he should carry a floppy eared hound dog to the ring as well.

See, now that's a stupid idea.
TehDoct0r - March 17, 2005 04:47 PM (GMT)
Regarding the Special K thing, I'm kinda sad to see it go, only because Lacey's Angels sounds pretty gay. But I must say, Cheech's reaction to the loss was fantastic. He took off the Special K shirt he was wearing, held it in his hands, and looked at it with the most heartbroken look on his face. Golden.

Here's the real question at hand about Special K.....
Now, what are they going to do with their parents money?

Go back to wrestling school! And become top, world class athletes for Ring of Honor! (The remainder of Special K have to participate in a scared straight program with Raven and then be mocked by CM Punk.)

That's not a bad idea. Have them disappear and return as moody hipsters who know too much for their own good.
whitemilesdavis - March 18, 2005 09:45 PM (GMT)
Sounds like the whole Raven / Kanyon/ Hack story from WCW. Well, that story never played out, but I think it was headed in that direction.
