Ring Of Honor Wrestling has issued the following, revealing new Field Of Honor event details, including a Tag Team Dream Match at ROH Field of Honor featuring ROH World Champion & Television Champion Jay Lethal teaming with Shinsuke Nakamura against reDRagon:
TAG TEAM DREAM MATCH AT ROH FIELD OF HONOR
Ring of Honor Wrestling debuted in 2014 at MCU Park in Brooklyn, NY for the inaugural Field of Honor event. That night was filled with the stars of ROH displaying the Best Pro Wrestling on the Planet.
ROH returns to Brooklyn on Saturday, August 22nd to present FIELD OF HONOR ’15 at MCU Park again in Brooklyn. This year, stars from NJPW will be joining us for even more incredible action!
“Wrestling has a rich history at ballparks dating back almost a hundred years and we are excited to return to MCU Park, to celebrate that history by partnering with the Brooklyn Cyclones,” said Joe Koff, COO of Ring of Honor.
Tickets for this event are be on sale now and can be purchased by clicking HERE (http://purchase.tickets.com/buy/TicketPurchase?agency=CYC_WRESTLING&pid=7999268)!
Tickets also available by phone at 718-507-TIXX, or in person at the MCU Park Box Office.
Dream Match is how you would label the next match that has been signed for Field of Honor:
ROH WORLD CHAMPION & WORLD TELEVISION CHAMPION JAY LETHAL & SHINSUKE NAKAMURA vs reDRagon
ROH Matchmaker Nigel McGuinness’ mission of making this a once in a lifetime event continues. Jay Lethal is backing up his claim to be the best first generation wrestler. He is the first competitor in ROH history to hold two individual championships at the same time. His tag team partner is no stranger to championship glory. Shinsuke Nakamura is a 3x time former IWGP Heavyweight Champion, 4x IWGP Intercontinental Champion and a former IWGP Heavyweight Tag Team Champion.
reDRagon are also no strangers to holding gold. Bobby Fish & Kyle O’Reilly have held the ROH World Tag Team Championships 3 times, as well as being former IWGP Jr Heavyweight Tag Team Champions. The duo have proven themselves to be one of the greatest tag teams not only in ROH history but in all of professional wrestling.
Kyle O’Reilly has a history with Jay Lethal that eats at the champion. Kyle holds a submission victory over him in a Champions Challenge match and took Lethal to a time limit on another occasion. Whispers of Lethal not being able to defeat O’Reilly have started to seep into the psyche of the champion and he doesn’t like it. Nakamura and Fish do not have history, but their unique personalities and hard hitting styles draw a lot of comparisons.
Truth Martini will have his dream pairing ready! He will be looking to prove that Lethal is the best as he claims. Can the off the charts charismatic Nakamura and the at times pompous Lethal get along? Does reDRagon have the edge because they are a consistent tag team? Do not miss out on this potentially once in a lifetime match up. Be there in person to witness history!
