Update: ROH In Manhattan TONIGHT (2/16)

Update: ROH In Manhattan TONIGHT
Friday, February 16, 2007

Here is a quick update for TONIGHT's event at the Manhattan Center, just a block from Madison Square Garden in the heart of Manhattan.

We are sorry to report that Davey Richards will not be able to wrestle on tonight's event due to an injury he suffered in training. We assure you that there will be a top quality replacement for Richards in the Four Way Fray.

Everyone at ROH is so proud to kick off the Fifth Year Festival at the Manhattan Center. The New York City fans have meant so much to ROH since the very first show. The NYC fans who used to take the bus trips and drive to the first Philly shows spread the word and created the buzz that made ROH grow.

New York City saw ROH's historic and memorable First Anniversary Show at the legendary Elk's Lodge in Queens, NY. Manhattan has become the place to be to witness ROH live. The first Manhattan event, "Manhattan Mayhem" in May of 2005, set a new standard for excellence. Since that time Manhattan has hosted one must see show after another including "Joe vs. Kobashi" and "Glory By Honor V: Night 2" (Wrestling Observer show of the year for 2006). The thing that made these shows so special was the atmosphere created by the rabid NYC fans.

We are honored to kick off the 5th birthday party in NYC. You better believe that the party will be hot all night at the Manhattan Center. Tickets will be available at the door tonight. Here is a quick look at all the info you need to know:
