Ring Of Honor Wrestling sent out the following:
reDRagon are returning to New Japan
In their own words current Ring of Honor World Tag Team Champions, Bobby Fish & Kyle O’Reilly describe themselves as “The very best at what we do, hands down!”
The stylish duo have never backed down from a challenge in their time as a team in Ring of Honor, beating such outstanding tag teams as The Forever Hooligans, Outlaw Inc, Caprice Coleman and Cedric Alexander and The Young Bucks. While building their resume as the very best in Ring of Honor, they forced the world to take notice.
Taking specific notice was New Japan Pro Wrestling (NJPW). NJPW is home to some of the best tag teams, teams that reDRagon have already wrestled and defeated. During 2 ROH/NJPW combined events in 2014 Global Wars and War of the Worlds, NJPW officials got the chance to witness reDRagon first hand.
Those officals watched at War of The Worlds as reDRagon with UFC’s “Flithy” Tom Lawlor reclaimed the Ring of Honor World Tag Team titles from then champions Nick & Matt Jackson, The Young Bucks in stunning fashion.
After witnessing what many are calling the match of the year in 2014, NJPW officials invited reDRagon to compete at the prestigious G1 Climax finale at the Seibu Dome in Tokorozawa, Saitama, Japan. They debuted and faced New Japan JR Tag Team Champions The Time Splitters, Alex Shelly and KUSHIDA. While Fish & O’Reilly didn’t come out as dual champions, they left an impression felt to this day.
That impression has led to Fish & O’Reilly being forced to miss ROH’s live event on October 25, 2014 in Lakeland, as well as Survival of The Fittest events on November 7, 2014 and November 8, 2014 in Columbus, Ohio and Toledo, Ohio respectively.
The reason for missing these live events is reDRagon will represent Ring of Honor in New Japan Pro Wrestling’s annual Super Jr Tag Team Tournament! This annual event features 8 of the best tag teams in the world vying to prove they are truly the best.
“We plan on touching down in Japan and forcing the other 7 teams to bow down and kiss the feet of the greatest tag team on god’s green, reDRagon” Said Fish. “It’s an honor to be viewed as one of the best, but Bobby and I know, we are the very best! New Japan Pro Wrestling got a small taste of the greatness of reDRagon last August, now they to get to experience a whole new level of domination” added O’Reilly.
Never one to be humble Bobby Fish wanted to add some words in closing “We aren’t coming to take part boys, we are coming to take over!”
