Through hard work & dedication...through blood, sweat, and tears, CM Punk fought his way to the top of the ladder in Ring of Honor. His skill inside the squared circle, his verbal gifts, and his innate charisma made him a figure that demanded attention from each and every person that watched his journey from unknown Midwestern talent to worldwide superstar.

Widely regarded as the best wrestler in the world today, Bryan Danielson is a master of his craft. His rise to the top of the independent wrestling scene didn't happen overnight, and this set chronicles his journey to become the Best in the World.

2004 was a turbulent year for Ring of Honor but also one of growth & change. From first-time travels to Chicago and St. Paul to the rise of Austin Aries and the debut of legends like Mick Foley & Ricky Steamboat, it was twelve full months of excitement and, as always, the best wrestling on the planet.

A Legend and an icon; the man known worldwide as Samoa Joe was one of the men upon whose hard work, drive, and determination Ring of Honor was built. His World Title reign set records that still stand, over 7 years since it was brought to an end, but what happens when something that epic comes to an end? This is that tale, the store of how Samoa Joe cemented his position as a true legend whose legacy is still felt to this day by every ROH wrestler, especially the World champions that have followed.

The concept of the first ever Style Battle tournament is simple. EVOLVE took eight wrestlers, each representing a different style, and pitted them against each other in a one night single elimination tournament. This was a special event focused on determining the best style of wrestling and did not effect each wrestler's record. The only win that matters is the man left standing at the end of the night. He will go down in history as the first Style Battle winner.
