The Young Bucks Challenge for the Titles!

Ring of Honor returns to the Midwest on March 7th and 8th for a huge weekend of wrestling! We are RAISING THE BAR in Milwaukee and Chicago. You have been some of our hottest, most enthusiastic crowds in ROH history. That's why we can't wait to see your response to the first confirmed match for Chicago Ridge: reDRagon vs THE YOUNG BUCKS!

The current ROH World Tag Team Champions, reDRagon, have faced - and defeated - countless top teams from around the globe. And ever since The Young Bucks were announced for Raising The Bar weekend, fans have been requesting very specific opponents for them: Bobby Fish and Kyle O'Reilly. We can now reveal that match has been set for March 8th in Chicago Ridge - and if reDRagon are still champions after the 12th Anniversary, the titles will be on the line!

The name of the weekend is Raising the Bar. Ring of Honor intends to deliver on that promise. Keep checking rohwrestling.com for updated match announcements. Here is the current list of stars scheduled to appear...more to come!

Okay, they need to stop with these X Weekend name shows. I get what they are doing, but it leads to so many obnoxiously generic names. For a big show I'm fine with it, but for a small show (last weekend's show in Texas or all of the March shows being prime examples), there is no reaosn not to wait until the show is over to come up with a name. It allows for more artful/thematic names, and also avoids the risk of calling a show something like "Raising The Bar" and then looking stupid if the show isn't awesome.

It was, but it was also very under the radar (probably due to all of the hype around both the main event of Wrestling's Finest and the London vs. Strong match which wound up never happening. I also think that it wouldn't have felt quite as big if Adrenaline Rush hadn't beaten reDRagon. It was big coming out of the show, but it didn't quite have that feel going in.

for me it was the other way around, i kinda got interested when i read that it had sold out considering neither Hero nor Styles were booked. I think ROH could have made this show bigger than it was

I remember reading that the last show in San Antonio sold very well, too, and that the crowd was very hot. I'm excited for State of the Art when it comes out. I wish they'd get more of a jump the VODs again. Wrestling's Finest still isn't out, and it happened two and a half weeks ago.
