FTR (Cash Wheeler &amp; Dax Harwood) put the ROH titles on the line while Jeff Cobb &amp; The Great O-Khan (United Empire) put up the IWGP titles. Roppongi Vice (Rocky Romero &amp; Trent Beretta) will be the other participants. The winning team walks away with both sets of titles.<\/p>\n<p>FTR are also the AAA Tag Team Champions, but those titles are not on the line.<\/p>\n<p>This past Wednesday, Orange Cassidy and Roppongi Vice defeated Will Ospreay and Aussie Open (Kyle Fletcher &amp; Mark Davis) of the United Empire. After the match Cobb &amp; O-Khan came out to join their United Empire cohorts. FTR came out to even up the odds for Cassidy and Roppongi Vice.

Both women have recent connections to AEW Women\u2019s Champion Thunder Rosa. Martinez was \u201chired\u201d back in the winter by then-champion Dr. Britt Baker to take out Rosa. That didn\u2019t happen and Martinez and Rosa worked out their differences. Deeb recently challenged Rosa unsuccessfully for the AEW title at Double or Nothing.<\/p>\n<h4>Hook vs. DKC<\/h4>\n<p>It\u2019s been a while, but Hook will be in action on Rampage as he takes on The DKC from the L.A. Dojo of New Japan Pro Wrestling. We last saw Hook in the ring in tag action with his unofficial tag team partner of late, Danhausen as they defeated \u201cSmart\u201d Mark Sterling and Tony Nese on the Double or Nothing Buy-In Show. Hook was last in singles action on the May 4th edition of Rampage when he defeated J.D. Drake.<\/p>\n<p>The DKC has wrestled primarily on the New Japan Strong show, which airs weekly on the subscription-based New Japan World service.<\/p>\n<p><em>Follow Frank on Twitter @FrankPeteani.
