Kenny Omega Facing Cody Rhodes At ROH Supercard Of Honor XII? Latest episode of Being The Elite

Related image

Below is the latest episode of Being The Elite, which features the fallout from Cody attacking Kenny Omega at NJPW New Beginning earlier this week. In the video, Cody and Brandi Rhodes go skiing while Matt Jackson’s wife asks him what happened in room 710. Matt said that he wasn’t ready to talk about what transpired in the room.

 The end of the video features Nick Jackson looking into the future. It cuts to Colt Cabana and Ian Riccaboni at ROH Supercard Of Honor XII talking about a matchup later that night that people thought they “would never see in the history of wrestling.” Riccaboni then revealed the match: “The American Nightmare” Cody vs. “The Cleaner” Kenny Omega.

Cody and Omega have been teasing a split since last summer, when Cody attempted to “throw in the towel” for Omega during his IWGP Heavyweight Championship match against Kazuchika Okada at Dominion in June, which ended up in a draw. Omega attempted to get Cody’s wife, Brandi, to do the same during Cody’s title match against Okada the following month at NJPW’s G1 Special. Things came to a head last Sunday at New Beginning when Cody hit Omega with the Cross Rhodes following an argument after Omega lost the IWGP United States Championship to Jay White. Cody then grabbed a steel chair, but Koto Ibushi ran out to make the save for Omega and chased the Bullet Club off.

Nothing has been announced from ROH so far regarding the main event for Supercard Of Honor XII, so it’s possible that it was just a gag for the episode. Omega and Cody are confirmed to be wrestling on the show, as are The Young Bucks, Ibushi, Hiroshi Tanahashi and ROH World Champion Dalton Castle, although no matches have been officially announced yet.

ROH Supercard Of Honor XII takes place during WrestleMania weekend on Saturday, April 7th at the Lakefront Arena in New Orleans, LA.

The 10,000 seat event Cody Rhodes and The Young Bucks are planning to self-finance in 2018 has now been confirmed by all parties and the ROH champ has an ideal main event in mind.

Cody appeared on Sirius XM‘s Busted Open today and revealed that his dream opponent for the main event is Daniel Bryan, whose WWE contract will expire next summer.

Rhodes said he can’t reveal too much until the location is locked down, but reiterated that they are “swinging for the damn fences.”

Cody Rhodes And The Young Bucks Planning Self-Financed 10,000 Seat Event In 2018

The Young Bucks and Cody Rhodes are planning something big for 2018. Pro Wrestling Sheet has learned the Bullet Club members are in talks with multiple venues to put on a 10,000 seat event.

As you may recall,The Wrestling Observer’s Dave Meltzer tweeted earlier this year saying ROHwouldn’t sell out a 10K seat show “any time soon” and Cody responded saying he’d “take that bet.”

Sources tell The Sheet that Cody has been dedicated to making it happen since, so the trio recently decided to take things into their own hands by self-financing the event — which is tentatively being called “All In” — and things have been rapidly progressing the past few weeks towards an official announcement.

Cody tweeted a photo last weekend showing the group on a scouting mission with Marty Scurll.

The Sheet reports that the current front-runner locations for the show are Chicago, London, San Francisco and Ontario, California (where Bullet Club’s WWE invasion took place).

The Sheet’s sources say Matt Jackson, Nick Jackson and Rhodes are looking to partner with ROH, who they have exclusive domestic contracts with, but it’s unclear if an official deal has been worked out yet.

bullet club invades raw being the elite video

Videos of Bullet Club “invading” Raw have been hitting social media all day, but now this week’s Being The Elite episode chronicling the whole thing has been released … and it’s hilarious.

The episode shows the group rolling up to Raw in Ontario today in a stretch limo and then standing on the back of it to cut promos on a megaphone to air their grievances in public.

This includes Matt Jackson exclaiming that he wants to be able to say “suck it” without getting bleeped, “Hangman” Adam Page griping about being “kidnapped” and (for some reason) Cody Rhodes reciting a monologue from the movie Independence Day.

Those who’ve been keeping up with the show also get a tease at the end in regards to the ongoing saga of the WWE Stooge.

cody rhodes roh ring of honor domestically exclusive contract

“The American Nightmare” Cody Rhodes says he’s no longer a free agent and has inked a domestically exclusive contract with Ring of Honor for the next “several years.”

Cody’s manager put out a press release stating, “After an incredible run like no other this past year that saw Cody compete all around the world in promotions such as New Japan Pro Wrestling, Impact Wrestling, The Crash, APW, PWA Canada, and Northeast Wrestling just to name a few, The American Nightmare has decided to ink a domestically exclusive contract with Ring of Honor Wrestling, where Cody is currently the World Heavyweight Champion.”

Rhodes adds, “I grew up in this business, I’ve seen its peaks and valleys…I know we are entering an unprecedented time in pro wrestling/sports entertainment and it’s time to put my flag in the sand. Joe Koff and his team put together such a generous offer…with some non-wrestling projects on the horizon that I hope to announce soon, and the potential of starting a family down the road…it was a perfect fit. Myself, Marty Scurll, Hangman Page, Matt and Nick Jackson…it’s the dream team…like the 1992 dream team. I have several goals in mind for myself and for ROH and I can’t wait to get started.”

The exact terms/length of the deal weren’t included, but they claim it’s “the most generous offer in Ring of Honor history and Cody will be in an ROH ring for the next several years.”
