Kevin Steen on tag partner El Generico
April 23rd: We [ROH] regret to inform the fans that El Generico will not be able to perform this weekend in Dayton or Chicago. He is meeting with his orthopedic surgeon today to review his MRI, but as of this morning, he was still unable to bend his knee or put any weight on it. Kevin Steen was in contact with ROH officials this morning as well, confirming Generico’s replacement for the weekend. Steen asked us not to announce anything until he has had a chance to address the fans himself, and to that end we offer a letter we received from Steen today at http://www.rohwrestling.com/news/article.aspx?id=2744. Both matches that were scheduled for Steen and Generico will take place this weekend, which opens up a bunch of new possibilities.
ROH in Montreal (Steen dominates Grenier)
Kevin Steen Dominates Sylvain Grenier
ROH Montreal results 04/17
by Michael “Llakor” Ryan
Kevin Steen led his “Best in the World” Trios team (featuring El Generico and the American Dragon Bryan Danielson) to victory against the team of Sylvain Grenier and the ROH Tag Team Champions, the American Wolves (Davey Richards and Eddie Edwards) in the main eventof the Rong of Honor show in Montreal Friday night. As El Generico prowled the ring, keeping Davey Richards at bay, Kevin Steen trapped Sylvain Grenier in the Sharpshooter while Brian Danielson tortured Eddie Edwards with his trademark Cattle Mutilation chickenwing. While to this observer Edwards and Grenier’s submissions were simultaneous, backstage Sylvain Grenier was lobbying anyone who would listen to convince them that Edwards had tapped first. The victory brought the crowd of about 450 to their feet chanting “Meilleur du Monde!” and sent the crowd home happy.

ROH 7th Anniversary Show fan report
Reported by NDX from OWW Genesis:
Opening contest, Rhett Titus and Kenny King vs. Erick Stevens and Roderick Strong. A solid opener that saw nice pacing a good series of spots. Titus and King are going to do well in ROH in the future as a tag team, but this evening belonged to Chooch and Strong. In the end, Chooch hit’s the Doctor Bomb for the win on the now Addicted to Vicodin Rhett Titus.
