Ricochet’s challenger for ROH Final Battle revealed
Ricochet’s opponent for Final Battle has been revealed.
ROH confirmed on Tuesday that Ricochet will defend his newly-won National title at Final Battle this Friday against Dalton Castle. It will mark the first time he’s defended the title since winning it at Full Gear last month.
It was previously announced that the first-ever National Champion would be defending the title at Final Battle. Ricochet emerged as the winner in the Casino Gauntlet battle royal at Full Gear, pinning Kevin Knight.
When introducing the title, it was said that the National title would be defended across various promotions, including ROH, CMLL, and NJPW. Following Full Gear, Tony Khan revealed that the latter two companies expressed interest in future title matches.
