    That one hurts, I love the Boys, and they are literally part of a storyline in ROH as we speak. The storyline involves them being missing and possibly eating by bears, but…I guess they have been eaten by bears!

    I was wondering the same thing, why in the middle of a fucking storyline? I’m led to believe these are complete releases, but some of the dirt sheets keep using AEW releases, I’m wondering if maybe they are still on a paid-per-appearance deal with ROH, if not, WTF is going on here? First, the PPV is no longer exclusive to B/R, and now sudden talent releases after being told he wouldn’t do that, it’s all so strange to me.

    I just got lucky on that ball, I was trying to piece together the WM weekend cards from the various companies and the story popped up.

    What I learned, there is going to be wrestling from 11AM to after Midnight everyday staring on Thursday… and some of these crazy bastards are wrestling 4-5 times in two days. Crazy.
