Rey Horus signs new contract with Ring of Honor
ROH Six-Man Tag Team Champion Rey Horus has signed a new deal with the promotion.
“It didn’t take long for Rey Horus to make an impact in Ring of Honor, and the company is pleased to announce that the exciting Mexican star will make ROH his home after signing a new contract,” ROH announced today. Mas Lucha reported that the contract is for two years.
In Horus’ ROH debut, he lost to Flip Gordon at Final Battle Fallout in December 2019. Horus, Bandido & Flamita then defeated Villain Enterprises (Marty Scurll, Brody King & Gordon) to win the ROH Six-Man Tag Team titles in January. That was Horus’ second match for ROH.
Horus & Alex Zayne had been scheduled to face PCO & King at ROH’s 18th Anniversary pay-per-view this month, but all ROH shows through the end of May have been canceled due to the coronavirus pandemic. Horus, Bandido & Flamita were also supposed to defend their Six-Man titles against Will Ospreay, Rocky Romero & Amazing Red at Supercard of Honor XIV.
Horus & Flamita were set to team together in the NWA’s Crockett Cup next month, but the NWA has also suspended events until June.
Horus was known as Dragon Azteca Jr. during his time in Lucha Underground.
