ROH News: KUSHIDA Added To Global Wars, First Tour Match Announced
Ring Of Honor will be off on the Chris Jericho Cruise to close out the month of October, then it’s Pittsburgh for Steel City Excellence on November 3rd, Survival Of The Fittest on the 4th in Columbus and then Global Wars 2018 kicks off in Lewiston, Maine on November 7th.
Already, a handful of New Japan Pro Wrestling stars have been announced for the tour as Los Ingobernables de Japon’s Tetsuya Naito, BUSHI, EVIL and SANADA will all be a part of the four Global Wars shows. Now, ROH has since revealed KUSHIDA as the next man from NJPW participating and today, announced the first match for the tour as Naito, BUSHI, EVIL and SANADA meet KUSHIDA, Chris Sabin, Jonathan Gresham and ROH World Champion Jay Lethal in Lewiston:
Ring of Honor makes its long-awaited debut in Maine on Wednesday November 7 at the Androscoggin Bank Colisee with the opening night of Global Wars! All four nights of the Global Wars Tour will air LIVE for HonorClub and the main event for Night 1 Lewiston has been signed!
MAIN EVENT, EIGHT-MAN TAG
ROH WORLD CHAMPION JAY LETHAL, JONATHAN GRESHAM, CHRIS SABIN, AND IWGP JR. HEAVYWEIGHT CHAMPION KUSHIDA vs. LOS INGOBERNABLES DE JAPON (NAITO, EVIL, SANADA, & BUSHI)
Two of the biggest stars in the world, Jay Lethal and Tetsuya Naito, lead their teams into battle in an eight-man tag team main event worthy of Global Wars! The Ring of Honor World Champion Lethal and the former IWGP Heavyweight Champion Naito once flirted with the idea of Lethal joining Los Ingobernables de Japon following Lethal’s successful defense of the ROH World Championship at Wrestle Kingdom in 2016.
But after one win against the team of Kazuchika Okada and YOSHI-HASHI at Honor Rising 2016, the pair lost to reDRagon on Night 1 of War of the Worlds 2016 and dissention began to show. The two would face each other one-on-one that September where Lethal defeated Naito but the two have not crossed paths since then.
In Lewiston, Lethal and Naito captain their teams, Lethal’s team filled with men who have earned his respect as opponents like Jonathan Gresham and current IWGP Jr. Heavyweight Champion KUSHIDA, as well as KUSHIDA’s new tag team partner, Chris Sabin while Naito’s teammates include long-time Los Ingobernables allies former IWGP Heavyweight Tag Team Champions EVIL and SANADA and long-time KUSHIDA rival and former IWGP Jr. Heavyweight Champion BUSHI!
Who will pick up the victory in this HUGE main event? Buy your ticket and join us LIVE or watch LIVE as all four nights are being broadcast LIVE for HonorClub!

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.
