ROH

From WJCT Studios in Jacksonville FL it’s Ring of Honor

We go backstage to Ian Ricobani who is with Lacey Lane. Lane says she knows what Persephone brings the table. Lane says that she brings is a strong Lucha style and something that you don’t want to miss and whatever it is YOU DON’T WANNA MISS IT. Lane says if you’re making a sandwich it turn it up, if your at the bar tell the owner to turn it up, if you’re in bed with your partner tell them to wrap it up because you don’t want to miss this. Lane says that she wants to go to CMLL because it’s always been a dream of hers. Lane says that if Persephone wants to retain the title she’s going to have to dig deeper than she ever before, because your not going to want to miss this and neither am i.

We go backstage to Lexy Nair who is with CMLL Women’s Champion Persephone. Persephone says that there’s some misconceptions about her so let’s clear those us up.
