ROH News: Former WWE Superstar Added To Survival Of The Fittest
Now that Ring Of Honor has wrapped up Glory By Honor weekend with the pay-per-view in Baltimore Friday and then television tapings yesterday in Philadelphia, the promotion looks forward to upcoming events including the 13th annual Survival Of The Fittest on November 4th.
A handful of names had already been announced for the tournament that will see First Round winners advance to a 6-Man Elimination Match where the survivor earns a future ROH World Title shot. To this point, Marty Scurll, Andrew Everett, Tracy Williams, Flip Gordon, Jonathan Gresham and Colin Delaney have all been entered into the field.
Today, ROH has now revealed another participant as the former Justin Gabriel, ‘The Darewolf’ PJ Black, will get his shot at a championship opportunity:
The 13th annual Survival of the Fittest returns to Ring of Honor on Sunday November 4, emanating LIVE from Columbus, OH’s Express Live, broadcasting LIVE for all HonorClub Members! First-round match winners will compete in a six-man elimination match at the end of the night. The winner of the Survival of the Fittest Finals will receive a future Ring of Honor World Championship opportunity!
Eleven individuals have won the previous twelve Survival of the Fittest Tournaments, with seven out of eleven individual winners eventually winning the ROH World Championship! With the list of former winners a true who’s who of professional wrestling, including current ROH World Champion Jay Lethal, the only three-time ROH World Champion Adam Cole, Bryan Danielson, Roderick Strong, and more, this year’s winner has a chance to add their name to a list of legends with an opportunity to write their name in the history books as a potential future ROH World Champion.
The seventh entrant in this year’s tournament is a South African native who has competed all over the globe since becoming a professional wrestler at age 16. Risk taking, high flying, death defying international star “Darewolf” PJ Black makes his ROH debut in Survival of the Fittest 2018!
PJ Black has rightfully earned a reputation as one of the most innovative high flyers in wrestling, developing the style through early travels across Africa and Europe. Black came to the United States in 2008, competing in main events of major Pay Per View events as a young competitor. Now, Black creates his own schedule, wrestling where he wants, when he wants, recently adapting the Lucha style and competing for the NWA Worlds Heavyweight Championship. And his eye has turned to the ROH World Championship!
Can “Darewolf” make history and earn a ROH World Championship opportunity on his first night? Join us in Columbus or stream Survival of the Fittest LIVE for HonorClub to find out!

Former WWE Star Reveals How Company Tests Wrestlers for an “Attitude Problem”
A former WWE star took to social media to explain, in brief, how WWE evaluates its talent to determine whether they have an “attitude problem.” The post offered a glimpse into the company’s behind-the-scenes vetting process, suggesting that behavior and professionalism are actively monitored during a wrestler’s time with the promotion.
While the explanation was limited, the revelation underscores WWE’s focus on maintaining locker-room culture and managing talent dynamics. Fans and industry observers may read the post as further evidence that character and conduct behind the curtain can be as consequential as in-ring performance.

WWE Backlash Match Sparks “Clone War” Debate in Wrestling Community
Wrestling fans and insiders are abuzz after a match at WWE Backlash was accused of “copycatting” a formula previously used by an independent wrestler, a situation some are calling a new “clone war” in the industry. The controversy highlights growing concerns about creative overlap between major promotions and the indie scene.
The debate raises questions about originality and recognition, with observers wondering whether mainstream companies should acknowledge or adapt indie ideas more transparently. As the story spreads, fans and performers alike are watching to see how promotions handle influence, credit, and creative borrowing moving forward.
