AJ Styles did not work this past weekend but was at the shows. He injured his back wrestling Kazuchika Okada at the New Japan Pro Wrestling King of Pro Wrestling event and then exacerbated it on a long flight to Italy for an independent date. The hope is that he'll be OK as long as he rests it.
The top matches for the Final Battle PPV (which will be the first ever live PPV from the former ECW Arena since 1997, when ECW held Barely Legal) are:
*ROH champion Jay Lethal vs. AJ Styles
*ROH Tag Team champions The Kingdom vs. War Machine.
The show will also feature Brutal Bob Evans vs. Cheeseburger.
ACH suffered a concussion in Kalamazoo, Michigan on Friday. He was held out from working on Saturday in Dayton, Ohio and also pulled himself off an independent date the following day.
This Wednesday's ROH TV will feature:
*The Kingdom vs. Michael Elgin & ReDragon(said to be excellent)
*Moose vs. Donovan Dijak
*Dalton Castle vs. Cedric Alexander.
*Also appearing are ROH champion Jay Lethal, Roderick Strong, Truth Martini and more.
No update yet on Destination America and ROH coming to a new agreement. The original one was for 26 weeks of programming.
