Ring of Honor comes to Morristown, NJ tonight w/ CM Punk's final match
On Saturday, June 18, 2005 at 1:17 AM EST Ring of Honor comes to Morristown, NJ tonight with their third installment in the Death Before Dishonor series. The show will have the following card:
Austin Aries defends the ROH World Title against CM Punk. Punk earned this title match by defeating Jimmy Rave in a steel cage in Chicago on May 14th. This will be Punk's final ROH match before presumably signing with WWE. In a strange bit of irony, Punk is getting a similar send-off to that which current WWE Cruiserweight Champ Paul London got when he left for WWE. London received a ROH World Title match against Samoa Joe at the original Death Before Dishonor in 2003. Punk promised to go out with a bang in his live journal. This match alone should be enough for any indy fan to go to the show, but there is eight other matches on the card, including:
Low Ki vs Jay Lethal
AJ Styles vs Prince Nana of the Embassy's mystery opponent
Samoa Joe defends the ROH Pure Title against Colt Cabana
ROH Tag Team Champions BJ Whitmer & Jimmy Jacobs defend against Jimmy Rave & Fast Eddie of the Embassy
There will be a Four Corner Survival featuring Azrieal, James Gibson, Homicide, & Nigel McGuinness
Roderick Strong & Jack Evans of Generation Next take on Izzy & Deranged of Lacey's Angels
The Carnage Crew take on The Ring Crew Express in an Anything Goes Match
Plus, Lacey takes on Cindy Rogers.
