Last Man Standing match set for ROH Best in the World PPV
A Last Man Standing match between former tag team partners is set for ROH’s Best in the World pay-per-view.
On this week’s edition of ROH Week By Week, it was announced that Josh Woods will face Silas Young in a Last Man Standing match at Best in the World. The PPV is taking place at the Chesapeake Employers Insurance Arena in Baltimore, Maryland on Sunday, July 11.
Woods defeated Young in a Pure Rules match on the latest episode of ROH TV. Young then interrupted a post-show interview with Woods. Woods wanted to get back on the same page with Young and asked if they were good. Young faked like things were fine between them, but he then low blowed Woods and challenged him to the Last Man Standing match at Best in the World.
Young turned against Woods at ROH’s 19th Anniversary PPV this March. They’re 1-1 in matches against each other since then. Young’s win against his former protege came when he used the ropes for leverage while pinning Woods during a match on ROH TV last month.
Best in the World will be the first ROH show with fans in attendance since February 2020. Brody King vs. Jay Lethal has also been announced for the PPV.
