Update – Omega pulled from ROH show, replaced by New Japan title match

Kenny Omega has been pulled from Ring of Honor’s show in Philadelphia this weekend.

“Due to circumstances out of his or Ring of Honor’s control, ‘The Cleaner’ Kenny Omega will not be in Philadelphia on Saturday, March 12 to compete at ‘The Conquest Tour’ event,” ROH announced Monday.

ROH announced that New Japan star KUSHIDA will replace Omega and defend one of New Japan’s top titles in Philadelphia.

ROH later announced that KUSHIDA will defend the IWGP Jr. Hvt. Title against A.C.H.

KUSHIDA noted over the weekend that he was going to be in Philadelphia for the show, setting up Monday’s changes.
