June 5th: It looks like there might be a new greatest match in ROH history. Fans and critics are now seeing the double DVD of the 3/31 "Supercard Of Honor" event and raving about the Blood Generation vs. Do Fixer six man tag team match. This is a top match of the year candidate. This event is so good that the Bryan Danielson vs. Roderick Strong contest is also a match of the year candidate. Here are what some critics are saying about the six man featuring the stars of Dragon Gate:

"This is one of the greatest matches in history...you must get that DVD," Dave Meltzer on last night's Wrestling Observer Live

"I just watched, hands down, the greatest pro wrestling match I've ever seen....I've seen most, if not all, of the best matches, internationally and domestically of the past three decades, and this one beats them all. It's state of the art. As this match gets seen by more people you're going to hear half smart internet critics criticize it for being a spot-fest. Ignore them. They'll be dazzled by the spots, as you will be, because they're faster, more spectacular and more precise than anything ever seen in this business. This match, though, is much more than spots," Bruce Mitchell in his blog yesterday on PWTorch.com.

June 5th: We know that gas is expensive and we want you to be able to afford to go to ROH shows this summer. Right now at ROHwrestling.com there is a 20% off on ALL tickets sale for the following shows: 6/17 in Manhattan; 6/23 in Detroit; 6/24 in Chicago; 7/15 in Philly; 7/28 in Dayton; 7/29 in Cleveland; 8/4 in Long Island; 8/5 in Edison; 8/25 in St. Paul. You can now get ringside and general admission ticket for 20% off, but act now because the sale ends on Wednesday night at ROHwrestling.com.

June 5th: Homicide has been MIA since walking out of last night's show. We hope to have an update on him and if he is really done with ROH this week in the ROHwrestling.com Newswire. Homicide feels he was ripped off in the finish of the World Title match last Saturday and quit the promotion. He didn't even return to the locker room as he walked straight out the front door from the ring after the match.

June 5th: ROH Tag Team Champions Austin Aries & Roderick Strong surprised everyone when they dropped the Generation Next name. Aries and Strong felt that the name didn't apply to them anymore. The original goal of Gen Next was for four upcomers to get aggressive about taking all the spots and getting to the main event. All the members of Gen Next, especially Aries & Strong, have accomplished that so the name simply doesn't apply to them anymore. We are not sure if Aries & Strong will remain a faction with Jack Evans and Matt Sydal. We also don't know how Evans and Sydal will react to the name being dropped. We will have to wait until Evans and Sydal return to ROH on July 28th in Dayton to find out what Evans and Sydal think of this whole situation.

June 5th: The entire Milestone Series is now released on DVD. You can pick up all these shows as part of the buy 3, get 1 free sale on all ROH show, Straight Shootin' and Secrets Of The Ring DVDs.

June 5th: Roderick Strong told the ROHwrestling.com Newswire that he considers his 6/23 match vs. KENTA in Detroit as the biggest test of his career. Strong says he can't wait to chop KENTA and show him what a hard chop really is. Strong states that he is ready for any kicks that KENTA might use as retaliation.
