Tony Khan says William Regal will be at ROH Supercard of Honor, teases show-ending surprise
Ring of Honor owner Tony Khan pulled out a play from his AEW playbook in hyping up tonight’s ROH Supercard of Honor on Friday: teasing a surprise.
During a Friday appearance on Busted Open Radio, Khan said that he feels tonight’s ROH show will be the best one they have done in “a really, really long time” and that it will be fun to take over the keys to a new business.
He then said that for those in attendance and watching at home, “Everyone will want to stay until the end of this one,” later saying he has “fun stuff” planned through the end of the show.
Khan also revealed that William Regal will be in attendance Friday and “keeping a close eye” on the ROH TV title match between champion Rhett Titus and challenger Wheeler Yuta.
Yuta, an AEW roster member, has been hinting at wanting to join Regal’s Blackpool Combat Club with Jon Moxley and Bryan Danielson which has caused issues with his Best Friends teammates. Yuta lost to Danielson on last Wednesday’s Dynamite.
Tonight’s show is the first under the Khan regime.
