For the first time ever, Ring of Honor will be holding a special two-day tryout camp and seminar on Saturday and Sunday, November 12th and 13th at ROH’s headquarters and wrestling academy in suburban Philadelphia. This camp will provide those who attend the rare opportunity to be seen and evaluated by officials and pro wrestlers from Ring of Honor. The seminar will be organized by ROH’s top officials as well as Jim Cornette.
“Our one day seminars that we have held in the past have all been a huge success.” Cornette said. “This time you get twice as much evaluation and personal time with the officials. These camps have been the catalyst for us signing Michael Elgin, Mike Bennett, Tommaso Ciampa and others. We hope to find exceptional talent like those great athletes that would fit the ROH roster. Remember though that this is not just a try-out because everyone will learn something new and we can guarantee that.”

His latest release, Born To Fight, is out on DVD next week and the grappling legend reckons his current Twitter banter with Punk could turn into a full-blown scrap at WWE's showpiece pay-per-view event.
Austin, who was the face of the WWE's revamped Tough Enough series, told SunSport: "I think Punk is a great guy.
"I'd say he looks up to me for what I did in the ring back in the day — and I look up to him for what he is doing now. I'd say it's a case of mutual respect.
"I hear the stories and if the stars aligned and all things worked out to benefit us all — the WWE, myself and Punk — I'd say that he is the guy I'd pick to face.
"I'm sure I could get another match out of this carcass of mine."...More?
