Ring of Honor Newswire for August 23, 2012

– Ring of Honor’s debut in Rahway, NJ on October 6th is going to be one to go out of your way to see. ROH Executive Producer Jim Cornette has been looking ahead to the rest of ROH’s year and is aiming to have title contenders in place as insurance policies just in case Kevin Steen remains the ROH World Champion through his currently scheduled title defenses. Given the limited number of title opportunities left in 2012, Cornette is desperately scouting the ROH locker room looking for qualified individuals who have yet to challenge Steen to step up and prove they deserve an opportunity. We currently have a poll up on our Facebook page asking fans who they want to see challenge Steen and the results are quite interesting and could possibly be something that influences Cornette’s decision.

– In addition, announced yesterday, Jay & Mark Briscoe face Eddie Edwards & Adam Cole in a 1st Time Ever Tag Team Encounter and there’s a potential tag title situation depending on the results of the upcoming tournament!
