Tuesday, December 04, 2007
Ring Of Honor and KOCH Vision have reached an agreement to release a series of exclusive ROH DVDs. The first two DVDs are set for an April 1st release in retail outlets nationwide.
"Blood Stained Honor" and "Stars Of Honor" will be the first two releases. Both DVDs will be 180+ minutes and feature new commentary tracks on some classic matches. As a bonus the packaging will include a ROH limited edition trading card. There will be six cards total. The suggested retail price will be $14.98.
"This is an exciting opportunity for Ring Of Honor," ROH President Cary Silkin said. "This will make the ROH product very accessible to a whole new audience. We are very proud of both these DVDs and feel they will be great for any new or longtime ROH fan."

for a full disclosure, i was heavily involved with this project, from both ROH's and KOCH's side.
seeing this come to fruition is a dream come true - for me, and for other people. i know i worked my ass off on so many levels, from choosing cover art photos (i'll post the covers sometime tonight or tomorrow) to selecting the matches.
if you guys don't buy these, i am so giving each and every one of you a muscle buster to the floor.

yea, to give Bobo credit, i solicited his opinions on what matches should be included on these DVDs. he gave a pretty good list, and it was whittled down slightly, but no question that the original list was Bobo's...

Blue Hen was with me... what an introduction!
We are still trying to find our seats and Carnage Crew are throwing Ring Crew Express through tables lol...
Believe the main event was Alex Shelley taking a crack at Aries for the belt.
Punk had his Candido tribute on his arm....

Chris Jericho said in a recent interview that he got his new finisher, The Codebreaker, from watching Naomichi Marufuji do it on a Ring of Honor tape. He figured it would be a cool finisher and so he's using it now.
