Cody Rhodes To Work For TNA And ROH

Source: WrestlingNews.co

Cody Rhodes will be working for TNA and ROH at the same time, according to the latest Wrestling Observer Radio. Dave Meltzer said that he spoke with Rhodes at PWG’s Battle Of Los Angeles over the weekend.

Rhodes’ deal is unique because wrestlers never work for TNA and ROH at the same time. TNA Wrestlers are allowed to work on the independents but they aren’t allowed to work with a company that has a TV deal. In this case, Rhodes would not be under contract to either company.

He will be working with Mike Bennett and Maria Kanellis in TNA and Rhodes’ wife Brandi will be involved in the feud. She did ring announcing for her husband at BOLA. He will be working with several people in ROH but his opponent of choice is Adam Cole. Cody does not have the rights to the “Cody Rhodes” name, he is using it on indy shows but will not be able to use the “Rhodes” name on TV. It’s a shame because the Rhodes name dates back over 50 years. Hopefully, he can work out something with WWE.

ROH Announces New Six-Man World Tag Team Championship

Ring of Honor announced yesterday that they have created a new ROH World Six-Man Tag Team Championship:

Six-man tag team matches have been a highlight of Ring of Honor events for years, and now competitors in those bouts will have something to fight for other than pride and the winner’s share of the purse.

The inaugural ROH World Six-Man Tag Team Champions will be crowned in an eight-team tournament that begins at the end of September. This will be the first time in six years that ROH has created a new title.

Teams expected to compete in the tournament include: Bullet Club, The Cabinet (Rhett Titus, Kenny King and Caprice Coleman) and the current World Tag Team Champions The Addiction (Christopher Daniels and Frankie Kazarian) and Kamaitachi.

Six-man matches are a staple of Lucha Libre (where they are referred as trios matches), and with ROH’s recent partnership with Mexico’s CMLL promotion, the timing couldn’t be better for ROH to introduce a six-man tag title.

New Japan Pro-Wrestling, also a partner of ROH, introduced the NEVER Openweight 6-Man Tag Team Championship this past January with a tournament that was won by The Briscoes and Toru Yano.

ROH’s new championship will mark the first time a major U.S.-based promotion has had a six-man tag team title in nearly 25 years.

Roy McClarity, Pat O’Connor & Yukon Eric were the first NWA 6-Man Champions crowned over 60 years ago. In the ‘80s, the NWA created a six-man tag title that was held by the likes of Dusty Rhodes and The Road Warriors, and in World Class Championship Wrestling, the legendary feud between The Freebirds and The Von Erichs often revolved around that promotion’s six-man tag title.

The tournament gets underway at All Star Extravaganza weekend in Lowell, MA on Sept. 30th and Oct. 1st, and continues on Oct. 29th in Baltimore.

The finals will take place at Final Battle on Dec. 2nd at The Manhattan Center’s Hammerstein Ballroom.
