August 27th: The latest edition of the ROH Videowire is now available online at http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TXIEttq3LGs. Check out comments from the Briscoes, Colt Cabana, and the Dark City Fight Club. In addition, take a peak at The Homecoming II – now available on DVD, and Roderick Strong has words for Nigel McGuinness! And finally, Claudio Castagnoli talks fashion and Nigel McGuinness is ready to hurt someone!

August 27th: Speaking of the Briscoes, they had a direct warning for Nick and Matt Jacks on. “No disrespect,” Jay Briscoe stated. “But we’re gonna teach y’all boys a thing or two.” While the Briscoes say that the Bucks remind them of themselves at a younger age, the Bucks took exception to their comments. “We have all the respect in the world for Mark and Jay. They are tag team wrestling, “said Matt Jackson. “But we’ve learned a lot and travelled the world as well and we’re not some punk kids that they’re going to roll around with and then cast off. In fact, maybe the Briscoes are taking us lightly. Well, after we meet in Dayton, how about we do it again – at Glory By Honor VIII!” ROH officials were quick to act, and regardless of the outcome in Dayton, the rematch has been signed! It will be Briscoes/Young Bucks II on September 26th in New York City!

August 27th: Upcoming hip-hop artist Kidd Russell wanted to use ROH as the backdrop for his new music video for “Rush (Rock remix)”, and ROH was happy to oblige.

Then on September 11th, Black will face the man that injured Jerry Lynn at the last set of tapings – “The Pretty Boy Pitbull” Kenny King!
