Tag Team Scheduled For First ROH Appearance Since 2006
Ring of Honor refers to Jody Fleisch and Jonny Storm as “trailblazers.”
Back in the early 2000s Jody Fleisch and Jonny Storm were wrestling on the same events as CM Punk, Samoa Joe, and AJ Styles at Ring of Honor. The company has been through a lot in the last decade or so and now Storm and Fleisch are set to return during the ROH Honor Re-United tour this August.
The following is an excerpt from the press release at ROHWrestling.com.
Two men that made their Ring of Honor debuts at June 22, 2002’s Road to the Title at the Murphy Rec Center return to ROH competition on the Honor Re-United Tour! The UK’s Jody Fleisch and Jonny Storm, who were opponents on that fateful night, have seen their profiles grow and grow, with Fleisch in the midst of a career renaissance competing all over the globe and Storm making his mark in competition in RevPro, Chikara, and other top-flight organizations and return to ROH action as a tag team on the Honor Re-United Tour!
Fleisch and Storm have a decade-plus of tag team experience teaming together with accolades that include being the first-ever 1PW Tag Team Champions and have stated they are looking to make an instant splash into the most competitive tag team division in the world in ROH! Fleisch and Storm at young ages early in their careers built their lineages that include bouts against ROH pioneers Christopher Daniels and AJ Styles and more recently against some of the top independent stars in the world and they will be in tag team action in Doncaster and London!
The team will be wrestling two nights of the tour but their opponents have not been announced. In their last match with the promotion, they wrestled the current ROH Tag Team Champions The Briscoes.
Also during the tour, ROH will be holding the International Cup which will give one wrestler a shot at the World Championship. Already announced for the tournament are Jimmy Havoc and Joe Hendry.
