Supercard of Honor III was a professional wrestling event produced by Ring of Honor (ROH). It was the third Supercard of Honor and took place on March 29, 2008 at the Orlando Downtown Recreation Complex in Orlando, Florida. As with other Supercard of Honor events, it took place in the same weekend and same metropolitan area as WrestleMania XXIV.

Contents

Eight matches were contested as part of the event, with the third being a dark match. In the main event, Muscle Outlaw'z (Naruki Doi, Masato Yoshino and Genki Horiguchi) defeated Typhoon (Cima, Susumu Yokosuka and Ryo Saito). In other prominent matches, Nigel McGuinness defeated Austin Aries to retain the ROH World Championship, Roderick Strong retained the FIP World Heavyweight Championship in a no contest against Erick Stevens, and No Remorse Corps (Davey Richards and Rocky Romero) defeated The Vulture Squad (Jigsaw and Ruckus) to retain the ROH World Tag Team Championship.

Storylines

Supercard of Honor III featured professional wrestling matches, which involved different wrestlers from pre-existing scripted feuds, plots, and storylines that played out on ROH's television programs. Wrestlers portrayed villains or heroes as they followed a series of events that built tension and culminated in a wrestling match or series of matches. [1]

Reception

Reviewing the event for Pro Wrestling Torch , Justin Parker gave the show a favorable review, describing it as "a highly recommended show [which] is ions better than the Friday night show from the same weekend and ROH's best show of the year." [2]
