Jonathan Gresham entering ROH World title division

One of ROH’s top wrestlers has their sights set on the World title.

On Monday morning, ROH uploaded a video with Jonathan Gresham announcing that he’s entering the ROH World Championship division. Gresham had been part of the Pure title division.

Gresham lost the ROH Pure Championship to Josh Woods at last month’s Death Before Dishonor pay-per-view. In the video where Gresham announced that he’s switching to the World title division, Gresham told Woods that he’s happy and proud that Woods was the one who dethroned him. Gresham said he feels confident that Woods will do things in the Pure division the same way that he did.

Gresham said The Foundation still needs numbers and still needs more Pure wrestlers. Woods shook Gresham’s hand and echoed Gresham in saying “I am The Foundation,” indicating that he’s joining the group. Jay Lethal, Tracy Williams, and Rhett Titus are also part of The Foundation.

Bandido is the current ROH World Champion. He defeated Rush to win the title at Best in the World this July.

Gresham’s announcement is available to watch below:
