Newsworthy Bite: ROH re-signed "Mr. ROH" Roderick Strong who will be taking on IWGP Champion "The Rainmaker" Kazuchika Okada in Brooklyn, NY on August 22nd. This will be Strong's 13th year with the company.

Reaction: There was some worry he would jump ship to Jeff Jarrett's Global Force Wrestling, this re-signing will continue to keep him off TV on any other promotion. Roderick's signing was big for ROH as he was a critical part of their event that's going against NXT the night before SummerSlam. Strong is an underrated talent, that could easily join NXT/WWE if he ever decided to go that route.
