TV title changes hands at ROH War of the Worlds: Toronto
The ROH Television Championship changed hands at Thursday night’s War of the Worlds show in Toronto.
Shane Taylor defeated Jeff Cobb, Brody King, and Hirooki Goto in a four corner survival match to win the TV title. The story of the finish was that Cobb lost the championship without being pinned. Cobb hit the Tour of the Islands on King, but Taylor gave Cobb a knee strike and then hit Greetings from 216 on King to win the title.
Taylor grabbed the championship from Cobb after the match and told him to get to the back of the line.
Prior to losing the title, Cobb had retained against Taylor at ROH’s 17th Anniversary pay-per-view this March.
The War of the Worlds tour will continue in Grand Rapids, Michigan on Saturday with a show airing live on HonorClub. The tour will then conclude with a set of TV tapings in Villa Park, Illinois on Sunday.
