TNA has been pursuing Kyle O’Reilly & Bobby Fish, known as reDRagon. Their ROH contracts have expired & TNA wants them to come & work a fued with The Wolves.
Tonight might be Matt Hardy’s last night with ROH because they weren’t happy about him working TNA’s recent New York City tapings.
The competition between TNA & ROH continues as TNA has been calling up ROH talents without contracts. ROH is on a strict budget so a big talent bidding war is unlikely.

In a video AJ Styles says he will be watching the Ring Of Honor pay-per-view Best In The World & that he wants a shot at the ROH World Title.
It is being reported various sites including TMZ that UFC fighter Tom Lawlor better known to his fans as “filthy” could be joining the wrestling promotion known as “Ring of Honor” (ROH). Apparently Lawlor made an appearance for the organization sometime last month as a manager of reDragon duo and a permanent deal has been in the works ever since. UFC gave the fighter their blessing for him to work in ROH during his downtime. It is believed that Lawlor will continue managing the duo with the possibility of eventually getting in the squared circle.
The deal is apparently close to being finalized and if all goes well Lawlor will appear at the ROH “Best in the World” ppv later this month. For a full article on this story click here http://m.tmz.com/#Article/2014/06/08/tom-lawlor-roh-wrestling-ring-of-honor-ufc
