ROH News: Marty Scurll’s ROH World Title Shot On The Line At Final Battle

‘The Villain’ Marty Scurll will put his ROH World Title shot on the line at Final Battle!

As we get closer and closer to Ring Of Honor’s next big event, Final Battle from the Hammerstein Ballroom in New York City on December 14th, more matches continue to be added to the card.





To this point, we’re already learned that the ROH World Championship, ROH World TV Championship and WOH World Women’s Championship will all be up for grabs. Not to mention the ROH debut of Zack Sabre Jr. against Jonathan Gresham (read about that here), on top of The Kingdom’s Matt Taven defending his ‘Real World Title’ against Dalton Castle and an I Quit Match pitting Flip Gordon against Bully Ray (see more on that here).

This morning, Ring Of Honor has announced another big match for Final Battle, as ‘The Villain’ Marty Scurll puts the ROH World Title shot he earned at Survival Of The Fittest up against SoCal Uncensored’s Christopher Daniels:

Ring of Honor’s seminal event, Final Battle, emanates from Manhattan Center’s Hammerstein Ballroom on Friday, December 14. Final Battle is ROH’s biggest card of the year and has been the site of some of ROH’s most memorable matches and this year will be no exception!

“The Villain” Marty Scurll added his name to the history books when he won the Survival of the Fittest Tournament in Columbus, OH by last eliminating Christopher Daniels with Graduation. The victory for Scurll adds yet another victory over former World Champion to Scurll’s won/loss record, making him not only the number one contender but also giving him a ton of momentum heading into a future ROH World Championship match!

But the World Championship match Scurll has in hand would have been a lifeline for Daniels. Daniels, who was told nearly one year ago in Philadelphia by ROH COO Joe Koff that his disparaging remarks and actions led him to decide that SCU’s contracts would not be renewed. Daniels’ pledges that he is a changed man have not been enough. Daniels needs leverage or a lifeline to extend his ROH stay and at Final Battle, Daniels faces Scurll for Scurll’s ROH World Title shot. If Daniels’ falls short, this could be his last ROH match!

FOR MARTY SCURLL’S SHOT AT THE ROH WORLD CHAMPIONSHIP

“THE VILLAIN” MARTY SCURLL vs. CHRISTOPHER DANIELS

For the first time, ever, Marty Scurll takes on Christopher Daniels one-on-one! For Scurll, he is putting his newly-minted ROH World Championship match on the line against a man starring down the sands of the hourglass of potentially his ROH career, Christopher Daniels! For Daniels, this may be his last shot, his last opportunity to extend his career in ROH.

Will Scurll beat Daniels and continue his roll as he looks ahead toward a shot at the ROH World Championship or will Daniels walk away the number one contender and force at least one last match in ROH? Find out LIVE as very limited tickets remain to join us in New York City for Final Battle!

Mitchell’s AEW Continental Classic Update! (11/27/23)

What a start to the tournament!

Did your picks win points?

The AEW Continental Classic is underway, with almost everyone competing. Check in here if you haven’t seen the winners and losers of week 1!

Here are your Gold League standings!

  • Jon Moxley: 1-0, 3 points
  • Swerve Strickland: 1-0, 3 points
  • Jay White: 1-0, 3 points
  • Rush: 0-1, 0 points
  • Mark Briscoe: 0-1, 0 points.
  • Jay Lethal: 0-1, 0 points

 

Here are your Blue League standings!

  • Brody King: 1-0, 3 points
  • Claudio Castagnoli: 1-0, 3 points
  • Daniel Garcia: 0-1, 0 points
  • Eddie Kingston: 0-1, 0 points
  • Bryan Danielson: Yet to Compete
  • Andrade El Idolo: Yet to Compete

 

My Thoughts:

Nothing too crazy, nothing too wild, this tournament only just got started. The only disappointing point is that they could not get Bryan “cleared to compete” Saturday night. Not sure how much of that is shoot given the bad eye, but this was kinda the problem of wanting him in the tournament over tons of other choices. Bryan wants to face Okada for WrestleKingdom 18, how is Bryan supposed to do that at his best if he’s also gonna be in a round robin, doing five top level matches in about as many weeks? And it takes away from Andrade being able to do something. Also a little surprised we didn’t even hear from Andrade on Saturday.

Now as we heard on Saturday, round two’s matches are set. Gold League will see Mark Briscoe VS Rush, White VS Swerve, and of course, Moxley VS Lethal. Nice variety there, a couple 0-1 guys facing off, as well as two 1-0 guys, and then 1-0 VS 0-1. No offense to Lethal, but he feels like an 0-2 going up against Moxley. Hard to call the other ones but that’s the fun of it. Meanwhile, Blue League sees Brody VS Claudio in a showdown to be 2-0, then Bryan and Andrade finally jump in, Bryan against Eddie and Andrade against Garcia. Sadly, feels like Eddie and Garcia are going 0-2, no way Tony Khan is booking Bryan and Andrade to lose their first shots.

In fact, that could be half the reason they did wait on those two, that’s almost too good for just a first round opener. But I still would’ve done it, same as NJPW does stuff like that for round robins, which this is all modeled after anyway.
