Matches for ROH War of the Worlds tour announced

Ring of Honor has announced big title matches and interpromotional bouts for their upcoming War of the Worlds tour.

The main event for Lowell, Massachusetts on May 9th has ROH World Champion Dalton Castle defending the title against Matt Taven. This will be the first singles match they’ve had against one another. Also on the card is SoCal Uncensored against the team of Jay Lethal, Jay White and Chucky T. The Young Bucks take on Hiromu Takahashi & BUSHI and Roppongi 3K will tackle Cody, Marty Scurll & Hangman Page in a six-man bout.

Toronto on May 11th has Cody vs. Jushin Thunder Liger. Punishment Martinez will take on Jay White, and Roppongi 3K will challenge ROH Six-Man Tag Team Champions SoCal Uncensored.

Royal Oak on May 12th will have a match pitting Punishment Martinez, who has been getting a big push of late, against Hangman Page, who had had some high-profile matches lately. Cody will also battle Hiromu Takahashi on the show.

Austin Aries will finally get a crack at the ROH Television title as he will face champion Silas Young at the Chicago War of the Worlds event on May 13th. Aries returned to ROH at their 16th anniversary show back in March and also appeared at Supercard of Honor, where he confronted Young after he jumped Kenny King, who Young had just beaten to win the title.

The main event for Chicago has a Bullet Club vs. Los Ingobernables theme, as all five members of Los Ingobernables de Japon will square off against Cody, Hangman Page, Marty Scurll & The Young Bucks.

The Lowell, Toronto and Royal Oak shows will be live events streamed on Honor Club. Chicago will be a television taping.
