On Friday, EJ Nduka, a wrestler for ROH, used Twitter to reveal he had intervened in a fight on a plane. He tweeted,
“I just intervened in a fight onboard a plane. A flight attendant thanked me afterward, saying, ‘Thank you for defusing the situation calmly, as I wouldn’t have been able to do anything.’ She added that ‘you literally could have held them both by their hands and thrown them.'”
Later, in a press release, House of Glory declared a singles match between Dijak and Mike Santana set for the HOG’s debut in Chicago at the Logan Square Auditorium on September 5. The release reads,
