By Jason Powell, ProWrestling.net Editor (@prowrestlingnet)

Ring of Honor issued the following press release on Monday to promote their two 18th Anniversary related events that will be held in Las Vegas, Nevada on March 13-14.

Ring of Honor has begun its 18th year of delivering the best professional wrestling on the planet, and the company will celebrate its birthday with two huge events in the fight capital of the world – Las Vegas, Nevada.

The weekend begins on Friday, March 13 with the “18th Anniversary” pay-per-view at Sam’s Town Live. Then on Saturday, March 14, the company presents a very special event ,  “ROH: Past vs. Present” – at the same venue.

Championships will be defended and scores will be settled on the 18^th Anniversary pay-per-view, while ROH Past vs. Present features ROH stars from throughout its history taking on your favorite stars of today.

ROH PRESENTS
18TH ANNIVERSARY (PAY-PER-VIEW)
FRIDAY, MARCH 13, 6:00 PM PT

ROH: PAST VS. PRESENT
SATURDAY, MARCH 14, 6:00 PM PT.

SCHEDULED TO APPEAR ARE AT THIS TIME:

DOUG WILLIAMS, HOMICIDE, MATT SYDAL, NECRO BUTCHER AND ALLISON DANGER.

Powell’s POV: I like the idea of the Past vs. Present theme and it will be interesting to see what additional names from the company’s past will appear. I’m still not crazy about the company continuing to run its pay-per-view events on Friday nights opposite Smackdown when Saturday seems like a more logical night without pro wrestling competition more often than not. That being said, the re-signings of Marty Scurll and Bandido, the renewed relationships with NJPW and the NWA, the Free Enterprise show on February 9, and the Past vs. Present themed show are good signs that ROH is working hard to pull out of the 2019 slump in this new year.
