Ring Of Honor's War Of The Worlds tour is coming to the UK.

Fresh-off the conclusion of their latest WOTW shows with NJPW in the USA and Canada, ROH have announced a set of British dates running from August 17th-20th, in conjunction with NJPW, Mexico's CMLL, and England's Revolution Pro Wrestling.

The official release notes the following:-

“RPW (Rev Pro) will host their annual ‘Summer Sizzler’, which will serve as a special Kickoff Event on Thursday August 17 at York Hall in London! From there, the stars of ROH, CMLL, NJPW, and RPW will compete at York Hall on Friday August 18 and then head the Liverpool Olympia on Saturday August 19! The tour will wrap up on August 20th in at the Edinburgh Corn Exchange to mark ROH’s first ever event in Scotland!”

No specific wrestlers have been announced far, but the tour starts four days after the conclusion of NJPW's G1 Climax tournament, which finishes on August 13th. This means we'll likely see some crossover in terms of participants, and after embarking on a highly successful string of UK shows in April, there's a strong chance Kenny Omega and The Young Bucks could feature.

War Of The Worlds will see ROH hosting their first UK shows since November 2016, when they held events in London, Liverpool, and Leicester. Ticketing information will be announced on ROHWrestling.com at a later date.
