ROH: Zwei Titelmatches für Dragon Lee

Wie f4wonline berichtete, hätte der Wrestler Dragon Lee zwei Titelmatches von ROH zugesichert bekommen.

Dragon Lee war der Unglücksrabe der amerikanischen Wrestling-Liga ROH (Ring of Honor). Nachdem er sich eine Ruptur am Trommelfell zuzog, verpasste er die so wichtige Großveranstaltung „19th Anniversary“. Denn dort sollte er eigentlich zwei Titel verteidigen, den ROH Tag Team und den ROH TV Championship. Für das Tag Team Titelmatch sprang Bestia del Ring ein, während Kenny King für den TV Titel zur Hilfe kam. Beide Titel verlor Lee dennoch, weil seine Ersatzpersonen nicht gewinnen konnten.

Jetzt jedoch sicherte ROH Lee zu, um die zwei Titel erneut anzutreten, die er persönlich nie verlor. Bei der Episode von „TV“, am 12. Juni, wird er, zusammen mit Kenny King auf die amtierenden ROH Tag Team Champions Tracy Williams & Rhett Titus treffen. Für die Chance auf den TV Championship von Tony Deppen wird er zu einem späteren noch unbekannten Zeitpunkt antreten.

Nachfolgend die offizielle Mitteilung von ROH:

RETURNING DRAGON LEE TO RECEIVE MATCHES FOR ROH WORLD TV AND WORLD TAG TITLES

Dragon Lee is on his way back to ROH and he’s looking to regain the two titles he “lost” during his absence.

As announced on “ROH Week By Week,” Lee and fellow La Faccion Ingobernable member Kenny King will face ROH World Tag Team Champions Tracy Williams and Rhett Titus of The Foundation in a title match on “Ring of Honor Wrestling” the weekend of June 12.

The bout will be contested under Pure rules, as the ROH Board of Directors has granted the request of Williams and Titus that all of their title defenses going forward be Pure Rules matches.

Lee had been the ROH World Television Champion as well as a co-holder of the tag team title with King heading into ROH’s 19th Anniversary pay-per-view on March 26, where he was scheduled two defend both titles. However, a few days before the event, Lee underwent surgery to repair a ruptured eardrum and was unable to travel.

The ROH board decided that King would defend the TV Title on Lee’s behalf against Williams, and Bestia del Ring would team with King to defend the tag team title against Williams and Titus. LFI lost both matches.

It also was announced on “ROH Week By Week” that Lee will receive his opportunity to regain the TV Title, which is now held by Tony Deppen of Violence Unlimited, on a future episode of “Ring of Honor Wrestling.”

While Lee was recovering from his surgery, the ROH board suspended LFI without pay for the entire month of May for an accumulation of lawless actions.
