The signing was announced on ROH Week By Week, a new news broadcast by the company hosed by Quinn McKay. It’s a quick segment in the middle of the broadcast that transitions into an ad for a Flip-focused documentary that was posted three weeks ago.
The show also includes highlights from the last ROH show back in February, an announcement of new guests of the ROH podcast, and footage of Dalton Castle looking cross with his cat. That’s one way to keep fans involved!

Ring Of Honor has since issued the following press release regarding Flip’s new contract:
Ring of Honor is pleased to confirm that Flip Gordon, one of the brightest young stars in pro wrestling, has signed a multi-year deal to remain with the company.
The signing was first announced on the premiere episode of “ROH Week By Week.”
“Ring of Honor has been my home for the last three years and I’m very excited to say that I’m not going anywhere for years and years to come, because ‘The Mercenary’ has signed a new multi-year, million-dollar deal,” Gordon said. “Now it’s time to win some ROH gold!”
The freakishly agile Gordon, who has a background in amateur wrestling, mixed martial arts and gymnastics, has come a long way in pro wrestling in a short time. The native of Kalispell, Mont., signed with ROH in 2017 after spending just over two years on the independent circuit.
After an impressive rookie year in ROH, Gordon was voted the Breakout Star of 2018. That year, Gordon got the better of Bully Ray in an intense feud and won the Sea of Honor tournament on the Chris Jericho cruise by defeating Silas Young, Marty Scurll, Dalton Castle and Jay Briscoe in succession.
Gordon shocked the wrestling world last year by joining Villain Enterprises and adopting a more ruthless attitude and in-ring style. He won a 20-man battle royal at Free Enterprise this past February to earn a future shot at the ROH World Championship.
