										<content:encoded><![CDATA[</p>
<p>Jeremy Borash recently appeared on Jim Ross&#8217; <a href="https://www.podcastone.com/The-Ross-Report">Ross Report</a> podcast. Here are some highlights from the interview:</p>
<p><b>Scott D’Amore and Don Callis running Impact Wrestling:</b> “The transition has been great and I think with Scott D’Amore we’ve seen what he [has] brought to the table. I’ve worked with him for well over a decade… actually, way longer than that, come to think of it. Now, it [has] been too long I’ve actually worked with him now, so he [has] been along the ride and he [has] been one of those guys you know is going to be right in the thick of things with you. As far as Don Callis goes, I’ve met him and worked with him a few times and I think he represents a good corporate side of things. He has experience in the boardroom, which is important these days. Actually, as a media company, you’ve got to know what you’re doing in there. And as things progress, it’s not necessarily hitting the reset button because I think that has been done a few times. Really, I think a whole new outlook from a business standpoint on where this is going and where it needs to go to survive.”</p>
<p><b>How The Hardys wanted to bring in Borash for their latest WWE run:</b> “We [Borash and the Hardys] wanted to continue to work together no matter where it was. Yeah, it was one of those [things] where we had such chemistry together that we really felt like after at some point, things could have gone in any direction and we really could have gone on to call our own shots as well. Obviously, there [were] different things that happened and it was one of those things that happened so fast. And we just had such a great chemistry together creatively. We had series options. We had a lot of things on the table before it all happened and they ended up going back to WWE.”</p>
<p><b>Anthem’s Ed Nordholm letting Matt Hardy use the “Broken” gimmick in WWE:</b> “I’m happy to see it and one thing that has been very cool, I was talking to Ed Nordholm and he kind of lifted the traditional copyright/intellectual property issues that I think have plagued [pro] wrestling for a long time. I still think it’s ridiculous that Cody Rhodes has to just be called Cody. He’s fine. He can make it work, but it’s you know, come on. So lifting the wrench that has been kind of tightening on these things for a long time. I’m happy, so if Matt wants to use the ‘Broken’ [Hardys] stuff, I guess he’s free to do it. Great! And I think it’s one of those things that give talent a little more freedom with their creative and kind of hold onto something. At least with Impact Wrestling, if something is created there, you can take it with you and I think that’s really revolutionary, I think, in some ways because in a lot of ways, you’ve got to be your own guy and as the landscape’s changing, that’s an interesting direction that’s taking.”</p>

<p>Cody Rhodes recently spoke with <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2LZoW9OPw8Y" target="new">Wrestledope.com</a>. Here are the highlights from the interview:</p>
<p><b>Being free from WWE</b>: “The Feeling, the sensation behind it is, it’s exciting to cherry pick and select and be your own boss and to be in control of your own brand, however it’s a lot of work.”</p>
<p><b>Wrestling Kurt Angle in UK</b>: “To have a record crowd for What Culture, to be in there with Kurt Angle and not to be just like Kurt Angle plus garnish. For it instead to be, Kurt Angle V Cody Rhodes, our second match actually, it was very vindicating. It’s also nice, you know, the greatest revenge in all the world is success so it’s nice to be vindicated.”</p>
<p><b>British Wrestling stars working in the United States</b>: “In America, we have “The British are coming!”, when it comes to the Revolutionary War but I always equate it to the current situation with guys like Will and Marty and Zack where they are literally like invading America with their talent and the effect and the ramifications of that so it’s cool to come over here(UK)”.</p>
<p><b>Exclusive contracts in the business</b>: “I understand why not. But there is allot of dated minds and allot of old school mentality. It’s like were almost reverting to the most traditional which is just a dang handshake like Hey I’m glad to be here and I’m going to give you my absolute best. I worked for a big corporation for a decade for the majority of my youth. Now I really like the opportunity to essentially play my music on as many brands and stuff as I can and Ring of Honor and Impact have been exceptional. They have been exceptional about that, there has been no pushback, and it’s all lined<br />
up exactly how we hoped.”</p>
<p><b>Impact backstage environment</b>: “My experience was the utmost engine operating at peak efficiency. Billy and Dixie were extremely wonderful. All had feedback, creative input. My experience from the time I went and filmed with the Corvette in Nashville to when I left the tapings to come overseas was wonderful.”</p>
<p><b>Working with Billy Cogan</b>: “I’m passed the concept of, oh he’s not a wrestler, he shouldn’t be involved in wrestling. He is an entertainer and they fall in line. An entertainer with a ton of equity, worldwide experience, proven. It’s Billy man, he’s famous!, he’s a rock star!. I thought he was wonderful, great for pro wrestling. He had some music made for me and didn’t know I wanted to use my other music. That was one of the hardest moments of perhaps my life. To see his face when I heard the music and know that I’m going to ask him to use my other music. Especially someone who is a musician. It’s a moment frozen in time. Me and Billy’s’ relationship I want to build off that moment to where we are good buds because that was a tough one!.”</p>
<p><b>Leaving WWE</b>: “I did make every effort I possibly could. It just was a matter of, no faith in me at a certain juncture turns around well you know what I don’t have faith in you guys either. But let’s not end on such a sour note. It’s rather dramatic and seems sourer than it really is. It’s not, the Rhodes in WWE have a wonderful history. I’m glad they let me go, they are the house that built me and you never now I might be there again one day”.</p>

<p>While speaking to <a href="http://www.pwi-online.com/" rel="noopener" target="_blank">The Pro Wrestling Illustrated</a> podcast, Cody Rhodes addressed rumors of former WWE Superstar CM Punk possibly appearing at his upcoming 10,000 seat arena event and mentioned that he can be a part of it if he wanted.</p>
<p><em>“The first thing everyone said when this story broke was, ‘You’ve got to get CM Punk.’ I love CM Punk. The fans never gave up on CM Punk. If CM Punk wants to part of ‘All In,’ he can be part of ‘All In.’ But I am not putting it on him to draw those 10,000 seats. If we did have CM Punk, we would not tell you we had CM Punk—unless we didn’t sell any tickets (laughing).”</em></p>
<p>Rhodes also commented on the possibility of Daniel Bryan being a part of the show.</p>
<p><em>“The main thing is I want Dan to be happy and healthy. But I know Dan knows what we’re thinking and when we’re thinking. So if that’s something that, if we could, that would be wonderful match. And I think it would be wonderful to do it for the Ring of Honor world title, being it that he has such roots with the company of old. The company today doesn’t look anything like it used to so I think that would be interesting. But we’re exploring all kinds of options.”</em></p>

<p>Cody Rhodes indicated on Twitter that The Bullet Club is in Atlanta tonight, which is the same city that RAW takes place. Rhodes posted the photos of the group in front of a Cracker Barrel with the captions “Atlanta” and “Family lunch,” as you can see below.</p>
<blockquote class="twitter-tweet" data-width="550">

</blockquote>
<p><script async src="https://platform.twitter.com/widgets.js" charset="utf-8"></script></p>
<p>As many are aware, the last time the Bullet Club was in the same city as RAW, they “invaded” in a move reminiscent of D-Generation X’s WCW invasion. The move got the group a lot of attention, though it also resulted in the Young Bucks receiving a cease-and-desist over the use of the “Too Sweet” hand gesture and got Jimmy Jacobs fired from the writing team.</p>

										<content:encoded><![CDATA[</p>
<p>Cody Rhodes posted the following in regards to criticism he has received regarding his recent remarks about WWE bringing back the Starrcade and War Games events.</p>
<p><em>&#8220;Received a lot of praise, but also a good deal of criticism in regards to my remarks on Starrcade &#038; War Games&#8230;with that said I&#8217;d like to clarify my position and clear up some confusion. As I try to climb the ladder in my sport, with every arena I walk into, I carry my Father&#8217;s legacy. It is also my job to protect it. Literally. As head of his estate, I try to always honor and never exploit. There&#8217;s no guidebook on how I&#8217;m supposed to do that. I loved him. He was my best friend and his death was a shock. My comments are certainly from the heart, but they are measured and I stand by them. </em></p>
<p>Nobody ever claimed they needed me or Michelle&#8217;s permission. &#8220;I was told&#8221; doesn&#8217;t mean anything more than that. They didn&#8217;t have to, but they did and for that I am thankful. Dusty didn&#8217;t just name/grid/book these events&#8230;he gave them life. Starrcade he did in honor of my Sister, Teil. The PPV era would have come much later without the direct consequences of closed circuit and the large scale event concept. HOWEVER, I do understand that to the victor goes the spoils, and that my Dad&#8217;s many many creations for Jim Crockett Promotions and later WCW&#8230;they belong to WWE. They can do with them what they choose. That doesn&#8217;t mean I always have to like it though. If my Father had not been a public figure, I wouldn&#8217;t have to share him with the millions of wrestling fans out there. But I gladly do share him. I want generations of fans to know what he brought&#8230;because I feel it&#8217;s a beautiful legacy filled with treasures.&#8221;</p>
<p>You can see his tweet below:</p>
<blockquote class="twitter-tweet" data-width="550">

										<content:encoded><![CDATA[</p>
<p>The PPV opened with a series of promos from different ROH personalities playing off the idea that they are gambling with their careers since the show is live from Las Vegas.</p>
<p>We go to Ian Riccaboni and Colt Cabana, who ran down the lineup for the show.</p>
<p><strong>The Kingdom vs. Bully Ray &#038; The Briscoes</strong><br />
The teams fought to ringside early. Mark performed the Cactus Jack elbow drop off the apron. Ouch. The dives continued with Taven performing a safe dive over the top onto Mark. O’Ryan teased doing a moonsault, then turned and told the crowd to stick it. Jay performed a suicide dive.</p>
<p>After some streaming issues (probably on my end rather than on FITE TV’s end), the Briscoes and Bully performed a Doomsday Device on O’Ryan and scored the pin. After the match, Jay blew off his brother’s celebration. Jay went to ringside and grabbed a chair. Jay threw the chair at the head of O’Ryan…</p>
<p><strong>Bully Ray, Jay Briscoe, and Mark Briscoe beat Matt Taven, TK O’Ryan, and Vinny Marseglia</strong></p>
<p>he broadcast team spoke at ringside and announced that Kenny Omega will wrestle at the Global Wars events. They also claimed that “Hangman” Adam Page was missing. They held up a flier that they said the Young Bucks were passing out for the missing Page. They said the Bucks would have to defend the six-man tag titles in a handicap match if Page didn’t show up… A pre-taped video aired with the Bullet Club members searching for Page. They all got together at the end and simultaneously asked, “Where’s Hangman?”…</p>
<p><strong>Marty Scurll vs. Chuck Taylor</strong><br />
They went back and forth with some nice wrestling before facing off.  Scurll took him down to the mat and began working over his wrist.  Taylor reversed and returned that strategy.  Scurll yanked his hair to take Taylor down.   Taylor responded by shoulderblocking him down.  Taylor used a lucha takedown and a dropkick on Scurll.  Scurll nailed Taylor and sent him into the barricades down on the floor, then superkicked him from the apron.  Scurll continued to work over Taylor, locking him in a straitjacket. Taylor tried to fight him way out but was nailed with a lungblower.</p>
<p>Scurll set up for a move but was nailed with an enziguiri, then a second.  Scurll reversed a suplex attempt and nailed a brainbuster, snapped his fingers and locked on a crossface chicken wing.   Taylor made it to the ropes, necessitating a break.  Taylor caught Scurll with an overhead suplex into the buckles, then tried to regain his win.  Taylor worked over Scurll but missed a moonsault off the top, then hit a superkick.  Scurll nailed a tope into a tornado DDT.  He tossed Taylor back in but was caught with a sit-down powerbomb.</p>
<p>Scurll went to snap his fingers but Taylor nailed the Eat Defeat.  He went to the top but Scurll knocked his legs out from under him and snapped his fingers on the other hand.  He nailed a superplex but Taylor hooked him in a small package position for a two count.  Taylor placed him on the top and snapped him down into a piledriver but Scurll got his foot on the rope at the last second.  Taylor hit a big tope con hilo to the outside.</p>
<p>Taylor tossed Scurll into the crowd and nailed a big dive over the railing onto him.  He tossed Scurll into the ringside area and hit a cannonball into the ringside area.  Back in the ring, Scurll cut him off and tried to use his feet to get the pin but referee Todd Sinclair caught him.  He shoved Todd.  Todd channeled Tommy Young and shoved him back.  Taylor rolled him up for a two count.  Scurll caught him in the crossface chicken wing and forced a submission.</p>
<p><strong>Winner: Marty Scurll</strong></p>
<p>Bully &#038; Briscoes vs. The Young Bucks &#038; Hangman Page later tonight.</p>
<p>They announced that Kenny Omega will be working all four nights at the Global Wars dates.</p>
<p>They teased that Hangman Page won&#8217;t be appearing, playing off the Being the Elite Youtube series.</p>
<p><strong>Las Vegas Street Fight: Punishment Martinez vs. Jay White</strong></p>
<p>Lots of brawling and weapons.  Martinez brought a chair into the ring but White flung it into his face as he came off the ropes.  White showed some nice intensity as he worked over Martinez.  He began nailing a series of German suplexes but had his ears clapped before he could do a third.  White ducked him shot and nailed a Flatliner.  He grabbed the chair and worked him over with a series of shots across the back.</p>
<p>Martinez made a comeback and drilled White with a Falcon Arrow.   White made a comeback and went to use a trash can lid but when he saw Martinez daring him to bring it on, instead used a series of strikes and chops.   White was sent to the floor and Martinez hit a crazy running dive over the corner to the floor on White.  That was pretty damn impressive.</p>
<p>Martinez went to the top but White nailed him with a chair.  White nailed a judo throw off the top for a two count.  He set up and nailed the Kiwi Crusher for another two count.  White set up a series of chairs and attempted to suplex Martinez through them.   The first time I saw someone do this in CZW in 2001, I&#8217;d never have guessed the spot would still be done 16 years later.  Martinez fought back and suplexed White onto the chairs, then hit an inverted DVDR through the chairs.  He covered White, who kicked up at the last second.</p>
<p>Thumbtacks were brought into the equation.  White was chokeslammed onto them and pinned. </p>
<p><strong>Winner: Punishment Martinez</strong></p>
<p>They showed tacks embedded in White&#8217;s back in after the match.</p>
<p><strong>ROH Six Man Tag Team champions The Young Bucks &#038; Hangman Page vs. Bully Ray &#038; The Briscoes</strong></p>
<p>Bully stopped Jay in the aisle and asked him if was OK after earlier.  Foreshadowing!</p>
<p>The Bucks came out alone.  They said earlier that if Page didn&#8217;t appear, the Bucks would have to defend the belts alone.  Maybe Genichiru Tenryu is going to show up?</p>
<p>Page showed up in street clothes, tunning out with his hands taped together and his mouth taped.  He used axehandles to nail the Briscoes and even hit a moonsault off the top while his hands was taped up.  That was cool, but hardly a move for heels.  The crowd chanted &#8220;Welcome back!&#8221;</p>
<p>The Briscoes attacked all the members of the Bullet Club. The Briscoes cleaned house until Page nailed a lariat. Bully backdropped Nick Jackson. Bully nailed some clubbering until he was caught with a double superkick. Lots of all over action. Jay went sent to the floor while rebounding as the ropes were held open by Page. Page hit the moonsault off the apron into the shoulderblock on Jay.</p>
<p>The Briscoes and Bully took control on Matt Jackson and nailed him with the Wazzup. They called for the tables. Mark grabbed one and Jay set it up against the ropes, then smashed it into Bully&#8217;s face.  Mark stood there outside shocked. Jay looked at Bully and walked out. Page scrambled into the ring and scored the pin.</p>
<p><strong>Winners: The Bullet Club</strong></p>
<p>After the match, Jay yelled at his brother that they were the best tag team on the planet, &#8220;not that motherf***er.&#8221;</p>
<p><strong>ROH TV champion KUSHIDA vs. Kenny King</strong></p>
<p>They are doing the hometown challenger deal with King.  They showed King&#8217;s daughter and KUSHIDA&#8217;s mother at ringside, which was a nice touch.  King was on the floor at one point and embraced his daughter.   King hit a nice series of moves.  KUSHIDA went to the floor, where he got some advice from his mom.   Some nice back and forth action early.</p>
<p>King nailed the chinchecker and cinched in a Muta Lock.   They went to the floor, where KUSHIDA nailed a running dropkick off a chair into the barricade.  Back in the ring, the champion continued to work over King&#8217;s arm, including a dropkick to the wrist.  He rode King to the mat, trying to wear down his arms.  He locked on a variation of cattle mutilation.</p>
<p>KUSHIDA worked over King, who made a comeback and scored a two count with a bridging suplex.  He grabbed KUSHIDA for a move but was caught with an armbar submission.  King powered up and nailed a powerbomb to break it.  They battled to the floor, where KUSHIDA nailed a rana into the ringpost and then hit a dive off the top to the floor.  The crowd loved the dive.</p>
<p>They went back and forth until King was locked in the Hoverboard lock.  King was able to escape each time but the third time he was locked in, King fought hard to escape.  The crowd was chanting for King.  He escaped but was nailed with a big right hand.  King responded in kind.  King finally caught him with a big spinebuster that looked awesome.   They continued battling back and forth with punches, going nose to nose.</p>
<p>KUSHIDA went for a springboard elbow but was caught in an electric chair.  They went back and forth until King caught him with a spinning slam and scored the pin.</p>
<p><strong>Winner: Kenny King</strong></p>
<p>King celebrated with his daughter after the match.  KUSHIDA showed respect after as well.</p>
<p><strong>Last Man Standing: Jay Lethal vs. Silas Young</strong></p>
<p>They went to the floor early.   Lethal nailed a suplex off the barricade.  Lethal was looking for something under the ring but Young attacked him and worked him over on the floor.  Young was now looking for something under the ring but Jay nailed him.  Lethal removed some of the mats from the floor and drilled Silas with a side Russian Legsweep.</p>
<p>Lethal pulled a table from under the ring and set it up on the floor.  He nailed an uppercut and worked him over.  Back in the ring, Young brought a belt into the ring but Lethal nailed a handspring into a dropkick.  He cracked Young with the belt.  Young told him if he wanted to be a man, go ahead and hit him.  Lethal began beating the hell out of him with the belt.    Young took a hell of a beating and had a lot of welts rising.</p>
<p>This brought out Beer City Bruiser, who was whipped but overpowered Lethal.   He worked over Jay as Young set up a table on the floor.  Bruiser went for a splash off the top through Lethal on the table but Jay escaped and Bruiser destroyed the table.  Lethal nailed an Ace Crusher off the apron through another table on Young, which looked brutal.</p>
<p>The battle continued.  Young got his hands on the belt and began whipping Lethal.  He beat Lethal for a long time, then set up a chair.  Lethal and Young battled until Lethal nailed the Lethal Injection on the chair.  Lethal taped Young&#8217;s arm to the ropes.  Lethal was kicked off and bounced into the rereree.  They banged heads and Lethal was busted open.  Referee Todd Sinclair was out on his feet. </p>
<p>Young worked over Lethal, and demanded the referee begin counting him out.  Lethal was hit with Misery.  Young told the ref to stop counting him out and hit a Lethal Injection on Jay.  Jay got to his feet but was nailed with a ladder.   Lethal came back and nailed a handspring into an Ace Crusher.  He set up the ladder on the floor, followed by a table underneath.  Young tried to nail him with a chair but Lethal beat him first and placed him on the table.</p>
<p>Lethal went to the top, teasing a flying elbow but Young attacked and nailed him over and over with a chair.  They battled to the top the ladder, where Young ziptied him to the ladder.  They battled until the ladder tipped over and they went through the ladder.  Young made it to his feet before the ten count and was declared the winner.</p>
<p><strong>Winner: Silas Young</strong></p>
<p><strong>ROH Tag Team champions The Young Bucks vs. The Motor City Machineguns</strong></p>
<p>All the back and forth stereo tag team action with big moves and lots of reversals, playing up the idea they were mirror images.  Matt held Shelley for Nick to suoerkick him.  Matt nailed backbreaker but scored a two count when Sabin interfered.  The Guns came back with a kick into a DDT, which the crowd booed as they liked the Bucks so much.</p>
<p>They continued, even whipping out the Dream Sequence.  Matt Jackson cut off Sabin with a superkick.  He went to work over Shelley and the Bucks turned the Guns into double sharpshooters.  It was lots of really faced paced back and forth action.  Shelley hit a nice dive to the outside  The Guns hit stereo kicks in the corner.</p>
<p>They worked over Matt but Nick Jackson broke it up with a swanton.  The Guns set up sliced bread #2 off the top but again, Nick broke it up.  Matt superkicked Sabin who came back with a big lariat.    The ref got KO.  The Addiction hit the ring and attacked both teams with the story being that they are trying to ruin everything ROH fans love.   It ended up with the Bucks and the Guns double teaming to hit a double Indy Taker on the floor to take them out.</p>
<p>Everyone then went nuts going back and forth until finally the Guns scored the pin.</p>
<p><strong>Winners and new ROH Tag Team champions: The Motor City Machineguns</strong></p>
<p><strong>ROH champion Cody Rhodes vs. Minoru Suzuki</strong></p>
<p>Cody came out with his wife and several Vegas showgirls. He offered his ROH ring to Suzuki to kiss, but Suzuki grabbed his hand and bit him on the finger.   Suzuki caught him in an armbar immediately and almost submitted him.  Cody made it to the floor and escaped.  Suzuki hit a series of strikes that sent Cody back to the floor.  Cody was completely off guard.   Back in the ring, Cody got some brief offense but was again nailed.  He went to the floor.  Suzuki went for a kick off the apron but Brandi was pulled in front.  He stopped and Cody nailed his legs, knocking him to the floor.</p>
<p>Cody worked him over but Suzuki fired back.  Cody chopped him and Suzuki demanded he keep bringing it, as it had no effect.  Cody finally kicked him low and tossed him in the ring.  Cody stomped him but Suzuki sat up and laughed.   Cody tossed him back to the floor.  Cody caught him coming in and drilled him with a Dragon Screw Legwhip.  Undeterred, Suzuki grabbed an upsidfe down hanging armbar.</p>
<p>Suzuki continued working over Rhodes, kicking away at him.   Suzuki worked over Rhodes&#8217; neck and cinched in a guilllotine choke.  Rhodes escaped and hit a gourd buster.  Rhodes locked in a Yes Lock, then did a &#8220;Yes&#8221; chant.  Gee, I wonder who that was a message too?  Suzuki grabbed an anklelock and then maneuvered him into a sleeper.  Suzuki rolled him to the mat and cinched in a sleeper from a sitting position.</p>
<p>He went for the piledriver but Cody fought to escape.  He did and nailed the Disaster Kick.  Suzuki avoided a charge and went for a sleeper.  Cody maneuvered him into the CrossRhodes for the pin.</p>
<p><strong>Your winner and still ROH champion Cody Rhodes!</strong></p>

<p>Jericho welcomes Cody Rhodes to the show.</p>
<p>Rhodes says he&#8217;s going by just &#8216;Cody&#8217; right now because he couldn&#8217;t bring himself to ask WWE officials if he could use &#8216;Cody Rhodes&#8217;. He thinks they would probably grant him the rights to that name if he really asked for it, but he was happy enough to simply go with &#8216;Cody&#8217;.</p>
<p>Rhodes informs that he was recently part of a ROH television taping, where they taped several week&#8217;s worth of shows in the same day. He says they debuted the &#8216;Ring of Honour&#8217; on these tapings and he thought that went over very well. He gives props to that audience because they stayed alive and active through several episodes worth of matches.</p>
<p><img decoding="async" class="size-medium wp-image-478801 aligncenter" src="http://www.ringsidenews.com/wp-content/uploads/Cody-Rhodes-2017-NEW-300x123.jpg" alt="" width="300" height="123" srcset="http://www.ringsidenews.com/wp-content/uploads/Cody-Rhodes-2017-NEW-300x123.jpg 300w, http://www.ringsidenews.com/wp-content/uploads/Cody-Rhodes-2017-NEW-600x246.jpg 600w, http://www.ringsidenews.com/wp-content/uploads/Cody-Rhodes-2017-NEW.jpg 610w" sizes="(max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px" /></p>
<p>During this indie run Rhodes informs that he has modelled himself after Vince McMahon, Ric Flair and other old school personalities who looked at professional wrestling as a business, and always looked presentable and respectable wherever they went.</p>
<p>Rhodes says he left WWE because it was simply time. He started in WWE when he was 19 and he was there for 11 years. He was growing tired and knew it was time for a change. He worked with Zack Ryder on an episode of Superstars in his last match and after the match Mark Carrano walked past him and said, &#8220;I&#8217;ll see you tomorrow&#8221; and Rhodes responded, &#8220;No you won&#8217;t&#8221;.</p>
