Ring of Honor News Wire: 7/12/2014

Ring of Honor is proud to announce that Christopher Daniels and Frankie Kazarian have signed contracts with the company. Both men have stated they are looking to continue the tag team Bad Influence. Daniels is an accomplished tag team star and is a former 6x NWA World Tag Team Champion, 2x TNA Tag Team Champion, 1x IWGP Junior Tag Team Champion, 2x RoH Tag Team Champion and a 1x WWC Tag Team Champion. Bad Influence were voted Tag Team of the Year in 2012. They are expected to make an immediate impact in the RoH Tag Team ranks and some are speculating that they could capture the tag titles by the end of the year.

Ring of Honor is coming to Chicago, IL on Friday and Bad Influence will be making their debut. They've drawn tough opponents out of the gate as they'll be taking on Caprice Coleman an Cedric Alexander the C&C Wrestle Factory. Will Bad Influence live up to the hype or will C&C Wrestle Factory spend Bad Influence packing?

RoH World Tag Team Champions the Young Bucks will be putting the titles on the line against the team of PPRay. The Bucks shocked the world when they won the belts on the 5th of July. Will PPRay make this a short reign for the champs or will the Bucks prove that they are in it for the long haul as champions?

Hometown hero Colt Cabana will be in action against House of Truth member Mike Mondo. Colt's promised his hometown fans a big show as always but Mike Mondo is looking to spoil the Cabana homecoming.

Tommasso Ciampa and Jigsaw have one thing in common. They've both been unsuccessful at beating Mike Bennett for the RoH Television Championship. This contenders match will sort out who should be getting the next shot at Bennett's Television Championship. Ciampa came so close to RoH gold twice in the span of three days and came up short both times and Jigsaw pushed the champ to the absolute limit. Who will get a chance at redemption?

Michael Elgin will be in action against Delirious. It's the strong man vs. the wild man. Who will come out on top here?

Jay Lethal and Adam Cole will square off in singles action. Both men have had a quiet feud over the past several weeks. This one is about bragging rights and moving up the contenders list. Who will come out on top?

Roderick Strong, Adam Pearce, BJ Whitmer and Jimmy Jacobs are standing in the locker room.

Strong: The list of targets for the Decade is ever growing so I decided to call in an old friend. The first name that popped into my head was Adam Pearce. I know everyone is asking themselves how that works. Didn't Adam Pearce leave Ring of Honor like all those guys you're after right now? No, he did not. Adam Pearce was fired from Ring of Honor against his will. His heart has been with Ring of Honor since he first joined. Now, he's back and AJ Styles is going to be his primary target.

Pearce: Get that camera a little closer on me there. AJ Styles, I know you think you're pretty hot stuff. A big national tv star for all of those years and the toast of New Japan Pro Wrestling right now. But you're looking at a 5x NWA World Heavyweight Champion right here. I've been kicking around this sport just as long as you and I've wrestled all the same guys that you have. I'm not going to be intimidated or star struck because I'm getting in the ring with AJ Styles. I signed on with the Decade because all of these guys thought Ring of Honor was beneath them when the big paydays were offered. I've looked over Roderick's list and I plan to take out each and every one of you.
