Chelsea Green On ROH's Hiatus, Omega Touts His Experience Over Hangman, Raw Preview | Fight Size

Here's your fight size update for Monday, November 8, 2021:

- On the most recent Green With Envy podcast, Chelsea Green commented on the impending hiatus for Ring of Honor wrestling.

Ring of Honor is also closing its doors. We are still taping until I believe December 11, which is their last pay-per-view, Final Battle. So hopefully you guys tune into Final Battle on December 11. It's going to be fucking awesome. Of course, it's going to be awesome as always, but it's gonna be awesome, because it is our last time seeing each other as a Ring of Honor family, and putting on a show for everybody. It's gonna be really sad. But I really just think that we have the best locker room ever and everyone is going to come together as a team to put on the most amazing show for the fans. So I am excited about that, but also sad. It's unfortunate that everybody at Ring of Honor has lost their jobs. However, I am very excited and anxious to see kind of where they all go. know that I'll see a lot of them at IMPACT, and NWA, and we'll probably see them at AEW, too. We'll see.

- Vin Diesel recently stated on Instagram that The Rock has to return for the final Fast and the Furious movie.

My little brother Dwayne... the time has come. The world awaits the finale of Fast 10. As you know, my children refer to you as Uncle Dwayne in my house. There is not a holiday that goes by that they and you don’t send well wishes... but the time has come. Legacy awaits. I told you years ago that I was going to fulfill my promise to Pablo. I swore that we would reach and manifest the best Fast in the finale that is 10! I say this out of love... but you must show up, do not leave the franchise idle you have a very important role to play. Hobbs can’t be played by no other. I hope that you rise to the occasion and fulfill your destiny.
