Prince Nana purchases Tully Blanchard Enterprises at ROH Death Before Dishonor (original) (raw)
The Embassy has returned to Ring of Honor.
In a backstage interview during ROH Death Before Dishonor Zero Hour, Prince Nana appeared and told Lexy Nair that he has purchased Tully Blanchard Enterprises from Blanchard, which consists of ROH World Champion Jonathan Gresham, Brian Cage, and The Gates of Agony (Toa Liona and Kaun). Immediately after, it was revealed that the group would be going under The Embassy name.
Cage and the Gates of Agony proceeded to wrestle on the ROH Zero Hour card, defeating Alex Zayne, Blake Christian, and Tony Deppen. Gresham will compete later in the show, defending the ROH title against Claudio Castagnoli.
The Embassy was a stable in ROH going as far back as 2004, led by Prince Nana. Notable names that were part of the stable at one time include Jimmy Rave, Alex Shelley, Abyss, Necro Butcher, Erick Stevens, and Tommaso Ciampa, among others.
Tully Blanchard Enterprises was formed at the ROH Supercard of Honor event in April, with Blanchard managing Gates of Agony and Cage. Two weeks ago on AEW Rampage, Gresham turned on tag team partner Lee Moriarty and joined forces with TBE. Blanchard was seen with the group as recently as this Friday’s Rampage, where they were shown in the crowd during a Castagnoli promo.
