According to reports, Ring of Honor has attempted to book Kurt Angle for a series of events, but were said to have been turned down and told that Angle won't be taking outside bookings at this time. While it is a possibility that Angle will work for ROH down the line, that is not the case at this time.

ROH World Tag Team Champion Claudio Castagnoli had a tryout at WWE's Deep South Wrestling territory this past week. According to reports from the tryout, he did very well and many are expecting that he will be offered a deal if he hasn't already by now. Castagnoli's size will definitely help his chances as that is something WWE always looks at when searching for new talent.
