March 4th: Jay & Mark Briscoe have returned from Japan where they took GHC Heavyweight Tag Team Champions Naomichi Marufuji & Takashi Suguira to the limit at last weekend’s Budokan Hall event. ROH will add this match as a bonus item on a future DVD. As soon as The Briscoes landed they vowed revenge on The Age Of The Fall. They want TOATF on PPV in a No Rules Tag Team War. Jay & Mark Briscoe will battle a TOATF team when ROH tapes PPV on March 16th in Philadelphia. The Briscoes promise the damnedest fight you’ll ever see on PPV. It is unknown who will represent The Age Of The Fall as Tyler Black and The Necro Butcher are both in the mini-tournament to determine who will challenge Nigel McGuinness for the ROH World Title in the main event of that show.

However, you can rest assured you will see only the best matches when ROH tapes PPV in Philly. We list the current lineup below.
