A reliable source has informed PWInsider.com that a cease and desist letter has been sent to Global Force Wrestling by Ring of Honor due to infringement upon ROH’s brand in radio and television ads that promote Friday’s GFW Television taping in Las Vegas, NV at The Orleans casino.

The ad apparently referenced the appearance of ROH stars at GFW’s show on 7/24. Given that Friday is also Ring of Honor’s “Death Before Dishonor” iPPV in Baltimore, MD, it would appear it would unlikely that very little, if any, of ROH’s talent would be appearing for GWF in Las Vegas.

It should be noted that ROH has a strong TV presence in Las Vegas, airing on at least two different stations. ROH also just ran in Las Vegas last week, so they are very cognizant of what goes on in the market.

So is Jarrett just falsely advertising? I can't see ROH having any precedent to be upset about KUSHIDA or other NJPW guys being used and Sabin isn't wrestling on that show for GFW anymore because he got injured, so I'm not sure what's up.

they are promoting a bunch of companies, but it's a commercial from before Sabin got injured, my guess is the ROH thing goes for Sabin unless Roode's opponent is from ROH.
