This Saturday in Chicago will be Matt Sydal‘s final night in ROH. Sydal will wrestle career long rival Delirious for the final time. Sydal says he doesn’t care about a sendoff, he just wants to prove that he is better than Delirious. The last time these two were involved in a fall Delirious pinned Sydal. Now Sydal wants to go out on top and leave ROH to take a big money deal that Larry Sweeney negotiated for him. Can Delirious get the last laugh of this feud? It has been proven that the winner of someone’s ROH farewell is unpredictable. Bragging rights for life are on the line in Chicago.

September 11th: Last week we talked about a situation where The Briscoes had a private family photo album stolen. Pictures of Mark and Jay as kids have popped up on a despicable website that we refuse to give publicity to by naming. The Briscoes demanded space in last week’s ROHwrestling.com Newswire and we obliged. Once again they have asked for some space. The Briscoe family has released the following statement: “We just want to send a message to everyone out there since a lot of people showed concern to us. We appreciate all your concern. No one has been MANNED UP and admitted they are behind this website. Now we have been able to rule out Kevin Steen since our camper was broken into in St. Paul and Steen wasn’t there. Now this doesn’t mean that Kevin Steen is off the hook. We are going to finish our business with Steen & El Generico in Chicago in a Ladder War. We promise you that we will be at our craziest that night. Now we will not stop until we find out what sad, gutless, infantile sorry excuse for a person is behind that website. We are calling you out one more time. Reveal yourself. MAN UP!”
 
September 11th: We will have an update on Bryan Danielson in tomorrow’s ROHwrestling.com Newswire.
September 12th: We have major news for this Saturday’s PPV taping in Chicago. The biggest grudge World Title Match in ROH history has been signed. ROH World Champion Takeshi Morishima will put the belt on the line against former World Champion Bryan Danielson THIS SATURDAY in Chicago. You can now save almost 30% on tickets until tomorrow morning at ROHwrestling.com. As documented in the latest ROH Video Wire, Bryan Danielson suffered a serious eye injury against Morishima during their 8/25 bout in Manhattan and needed emergency surgery. Danielson’s doctor told him yesterday that he is recovering quickly and that he will probably be able to wrestle this weekend. Danielson will have one more check up tomorrow just to make sure. However, Danielson said he is feeling great and he wants Morishima back in the ring. Danielson said cannot wait to get Morishima in the ring. Danielson says that Morishima took his vision from him so he will get revenge by ending Morishima’s over six month ROH World Title reign. Danielson proved his toughness last year when he wrestled for months with a severely injured shoulder. ROH officials are 100% confident that Danielson is ready to go for this Saturday’s epic rematch. We will have more on this bout and another update on Danielson after his latest visit to the doctor in tomorrow’s ROHwrestling.com Newswire. It simply doesn’t get any bigger than this.
