Grudge Match für ROH „14th Anniversary“ Pay-Per-View am 26. Februar 2016 in Las Vegas, Nevada offiziell bestätigt

Just one week after some of ROH’s athletes journey to Japan for a weekend of collaborative events, some of the top stars from NJPW – including current IWGP Heavyweight Champion OKADA – will travel to Las Vegas and compete at the 14TH ANNIVERSARY! And the very next night, February 27th, Ring of Honor is back at Sam’s Town Live! for an ROH television taping featuring all of the fallout from the 14 ANNIVERSARY!

Just signed for February 26th as ROH celebrates its 14TH ANNIVERSARY:

BJ WHITMER VS. ADAM PAGE

BJ Whitmer has always been a bully. But the true lows of his character were never more apparent than when he pulled Adam Page into The Decade as his young boy. Supposedly in the name of „respect“ and „paying dues,“ Whitmer bullied and berated Page for a year. But rather than stand up for himself, like most hoped would happen, Adam Page seemed to learn all the WRONG lessons from his so-called mentor!

In short order, Page got his own young boy: Colby Corino. Colby’s inclusion in The Decade was spun by Whitmer as giving a bright young athlete the opportunity to learn from a veteran. Obviously, this „opportunity“ was nothing more than a slap in the face for Colby’s father, Steve Corino. The bitterness between Whitmer and Corino is nothing new, and with Whitmer now claiming to be a real father to Colby, it got intensely personal. So personal that Corino violated the provisions of his ROH broadcaster contract and got into a physical altercation, forcing Nigel McGuinness to suspend him from commentary and the suspiciously familiar Mr. Wrestling 3 to take his place.

Colby Corino was an entrant into this year’s ROH TOP PROSPECT TOURNAMENT, a major opportunity for him to step out of the shadow of The Decade. Although Colby fought his hardest, he was no match for the massive Punisher Martinez. After the match, BJ Whitmer attacked Colby, destroying him with six exploder suplexes while goading Mr. Wrestling to take his mask off and do something about it. Whitmer then added another layer to his psychological warfare, telling Colby he still loves him. The entire scene was extremely disturbing and fans were left to wonder who would finally put a stop to BJ Whitmer’s twisted mind games.

Just weeks later, BJ Whitmer once again grabbed a microphone and took over an ROH ring. This time, he and Adam Page wanted to address rumors swirling in the locker room that Corino convinced someone to take out BJ Whitmer for him. Whitmer seemed to take this threat lightly, claiming Corino doesn’t even have any friends in wrestling anymore. But Whitmer should have been paying closer attention to his own camp – or had „eyes in the back of his head,“ as Corino warned – because he was suddenly attacked by ADAM PAGE himself!

We know very little about the motivations of Adam Page at this point. How long had this resentment against BJ Whitmer been brewing? Is he really in league with Corino, or his goals even more personal than that? One thing is for sure: on February 26th, it’ll be BJ WHITMER VS. ADAM PAGE live on pay-per-view at the 14TH ANNIVERSARY!
