The group of former Ring of Honor stars has made their presence felt in the IMPACT zone ever since. The group now known as <strong>Honor No More<\/strong> will now find themselves in a tag match at <em>No Surrender<\/em>. If they are victorious there they can stay in IMPACT. If not, they must leave the IMPACT zone.
