Austin Aries Comments On Nakamura Rumors
As noted, former TNA & ROH World Champion Austin Aries is making a return to Ring Of Honor this summer, being billed on the July 17th ROH live event in Las Vegas, Nevada.
Aries is returning to ROH for the first time in five years, and noted that he is bringing former TNA Knockout Thea Trinidad (Rosita) with him. While an opponent for Aries has not been named yet, Aries did shoot down rumors of him facing Shinsuke Nakamura. As reported, there’s been a photo of a match between the two, but Aries said although it would be a great matchup, the photo is a fan mockup.
Yes. Someone got creative with the photoshop. It’d be one hell of a match though. https://t.co/zt1P8y8osq
