ROH Expecting Three Names To Leave For WWE, Fish Rejected WWE Contract

It appears as though a few Ring of Honor stars are getting ready to jump ship to WWE.

According to a report in the Wrestling Observer Newsletter, ROH officials expect Ray Rowe and former champion Kyle O'Reilly to leave for WWE. O'Reilly won the ROH Title from Adam Cole at Final Battle on December 2nd, then lost it back to Cole at Wrestle Kingdom 11 approximately 36 hours ago, fueling rumors that he was headed out the door. However, the belief is that Cole will not be too far behind, even though legally, he's not even allowed to negotiate with WWE until May 1st.

Rowe is reportedly attempting to stay together with his tag team partner, Hanson, and wants to negotiate a package deal for both of them, either with WWE or staying with ROH/New Japan. The duo is known as War Machine in ROH.

Jay Lethal, Bobby Fish, Hangman Page and Christopher Daniels all have signed new contracts with ROH. Lethal signed a two-year-deal. Fish was offered a contract with WWE but turned it down to stay with ROH.
