In the announcement, Impact management was credited for making it happen. Sami Callihan of course, did not take kindly to that and once again citing disrespect, released another video on Twitter where he made his intentions perfectly clear.<\/p>\n<blockquote><p>No one on the ring of honor roster is safe. i don&#8217;t care if its shuffleboard, the casino, one of the concerts, i ain&#8217;t gonna stop until i punk out each and every one of you ring of honor clowns.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>Sami Callihan, who managed to turn an unfortunate and accidental swing of a baseball bat into one of the most-talked about and most controversial gimmicks in professional wrestling, has been on fire lately. Ever since the incident with <strong>Eddie Edwards<\/strong>, Callihan has taken on an attitude of showing no remorse while reminding people who claim to hate his guts, that they still pay to see him perform.
