Man Up was a professional wrestling pay-per-view promoted by Ring of Honor. It took place on September 15, 2007 at the Frontier Fieldhouse in Chicago Ridge, Illinois, the site of the second PPV taping Driven, and first aired on November 30.[1][2] The name of the show takes it name from the popular catchphrase "Time To Man Up" of the Briscoe Brothers who are featured in the main event of the show. This PPV also marked the first appearance of Jimmy Jacob's new stable The Age of the Fall. The Wrestling Observer Newsletter named this the best overall show of 2007.
