A bloody good time from America's best pro wrestling company

"Ring of Honor, while known for some of the best technical and scientific matches in the U.S., also has a darker side.
Because the wrestlers in ROH have such a passion to win, many a rivalry has culminated in bloodshed, and here are some of bloodiest, most violent matches in Ring of Honor history.
The DVD kicks off a now-legendary cage match that saw Jay Briscoe try to wrest the ROH World Title from Samoa Joe. By the end of the match, Jay Briscoe was bleeding so heavily, the blood was literally oozing out of his head and coagulating before it hit the mat!
In another match on the card, CM Punk and Jimmy Rave took their feud to new levels of bloodshed in a dog collar match that saw Punk nearly collapse from blood loss!
A third match saw Team ROH, consisting of Samoa Joe, Adam Pearce, and BJ Whitmer, take on the invading marauders from rival promotion Combat Zone Wrestling, who brought a team that featured Chris Hero, Super Dragon, and the infamous Necro Butcher. The six men fought all over the building, using anything they could find as weapons, and as a result, the carnage and chaos levels were off the charts!
Other violent matches on this card include:
***The Second City Saints (CM Punk and Ace Steel) vs. the Prophecy (Dan Maff and BJ Whitmer) in a Chicago Street Fight.
***Generation Next (Austin Aries, Roderick Strong, Jack Evans, and Matt Sydal) vs. The Embassy (Jimmy Rave, Alex Shelley, Abyss, and Prince Nana) in a steel cage.
***Colt Cabana vs. Homicide in a Ghetto Street Fight.
***Colt Cabana vs. Jimmy Jacobs in a Windy City Death Match.
***Kevin Steen and El Generico vs. Jay and Mark Briscoe in Boston Street Fight.
Many of ROH's legendary, and bloodiest moments are included on this DVD, a can't miss title for any fan of wrestling who loves seeing the blood, sweat, and tears of of their favorite sport!
Add to the fact that this release features a limited edition trading card, as well as new commentary for some matches, it's a title that has to be owned by every wrestling fan!
And don't forget to check out ROH's other brand new release, Ring of Honor: Stars of Honor, featuring some of the all-time greats who have wrestled in the squared circle for Ring of Honor.
