September 7th: ROH officials are making their final preparations before leaving for Tokyo, Japan this week. The hype is taking over Japan as ROH officials and wrestlers will have featured interviews on Samurai TV this week. This will be an especially big weekend for ROH World Tag Team Champions Jimmy Jacobs & Tyler Black. Both Jacobs and Black will be making their debuts in Japan on this tour. Not only is it a chance to spread their message worldwide, but they have a chance to claim all the power in ROH. Jacobs & Black will defend the ROH World Tag Team Titles against Jay & Mark Briscoe on 9/13 at Differ Ariake. If AOTF retain then The Briscoes will have to work their way up the ranks to get another title shot and there is no telling when that will happen. 9/14 in Tokyo will see Jacobs challenge Nigel McGuinness for the ROH World Title. Jacobs will have the biggest platform possible to spread the word of the AOTF if he wins the World Title and holds half of the World Tag Team Titles. Black will be faced with a very angry Austin Aries on 9/14 as the Aries vs. AOTF feud goes to Japan. Word is that Jacobs is even going to Japan a few days early to help organize the first ever Japanese chapter of The Age Of The Fall. This will be a huge weekend for Jacobs and Black as they have their first matches in Japan.
