"Glory By Honor VII" is set for September 20th at the New Alhambra/former ECW Arena in South Philadelphia and the lineup is now taking shape. Kensuke Sasaki and Katsuhiko Nakajima have been signed to compete on this event to make it a true supercard. They will be in singles action and both of their matches are now announced.

Sasaki is a true legend in Japan and has held many of the most important and prestigious championships in the country. He made his reputation in the United States in World Championship Wrestling and now the powerhouse will finally return to America. Sasaki sent an open contract to ROH and said he would take on anyone that would step up. Claudio Castagnoli has accepted the challenge. Castagnoli, with a newfound attitude (see the new ROH Video Wire at www.ROHvideos.com to see what we mean), says he will demonstrate his strength and power against Sasaki. This will be a heavyweight battle.

Nakajima has quickly risen as one of the most exciting and popular athletes in Japan. He is known as the hardest kicker in the sport. Bryan Danielson, upon hearing that Nakajima is headed to ROH, immediately called the ROH offices and requested a match. Danielson said he wants to compete against Nakajima. ROH officials didn't hesitate to sign Danielson vs. Nakajima. It is official for September 20th. It doesn't get any better than this.
