ROH notes: Final Battle location, Jake Atlas, Alex Zayne, Taylor Rust

This story was updated at 9 PM Eastern.

PWInsider’s Mike Johnson shared several notes after Sunday’s ROH Death Before Dishonor including why it might be their last one in front of fans this year.

  • Johnson reported DBD was the last scheduled one with fans this year and that several house shows were scrapped due to concerns over COVID-19.
  • They are taking a week-to-week approach to running in front of fans again which includes Final Battle, tentatively scheduled for December in Baltimore, Maryland. Dave Meltzer said later that ROH said that report was not correct and that Final Battle will indeed be taking place in front of fans in that city in that month.
  • They will tape their next round of TV both today and Tuesday in Philadelphia’s 2300 Arena with no fans with another round scheduled for November in Baltimore.
  • Jay Lethal, Rhett Titus and Tracy Williams are only injured in storyline and will work the TV tapings along with Jake Atlas, Alex Zayne and Taylor Rust.
  • Atlas was banged up after his match with Rust Sunday, but is fine.
  • Chris Hero was once again backstage working as a producer.
  • Lenny Leonard is not scheduled to announce on this week’s tapings and was just brought in for last night’s Women’s title match.
