Ring of Honor issued the following:

After more than a decade, FINAL BATTLE RETURNS TO PHILADELPHIA! On December 18th, Ring of Honor will present FINAL BATTLE 2015 on Pay-per-view. Plus, the very next night, we will return for the AFTERMATH and a huge television taping!

The heart and soul of ROH is in its Philadelphia roots. For the first time since 2004, FINAL BATTLE heads home! This year, we will be LIVE on PPV from the legendary 2300 Arena! FINAL BATTLE marks the culmination of a year’s worth of rivalries and competition. There’s no telling who will show up and who will leave as a champion.  FINAL BATTLE is a must-see event for all professional wrestling fans! And the next night, all of the fallout will spill into a massive ROH television event!

ROH WORLD TELEVISION CHAMPIONSHIP

“MR ROH” RODERICK STRONG VS. BOBBY FISH

We already know that the ROH World Champion, Jay Lethal, will put his title on the line against AJ Styles!  Plus, current ROH World Tag Team Champions, The Kingdom, will defend the gold against War Machine!  But the state of the ROH World Television Championship has been in question going into FINAL BATTLE.  New champion Roderick Strong just unseated Jay Lethal, and every ROH star has been clamoring for their opportunity to challenge “Mr. ROH.”

Strong himself has adopted that phrase “Roddy vs. The World” and issued an open challenge to anyone.  As an ROH Triple Crown winner, Strong has fought virtually every top star in professional wrestling and he’s not backing down from anyone.  Recently, during the filming of a promotional segment for rohwrestling.com, Roddy was interrupted by someone very interested in the open challenge…BOBBY FISH!

As a former ROH Tag Team Champion and current IWGP Jr. Heavyweight Tag Team Champion, Bobby Fish is no stranger to holding gold.  And yet, a singles championship has eluded him in Ring of Honor.  He nearly defeated former TV Champion Jay Lethal at ALL STAR EXTRAVAGANZA and as, he pointed out, Fish very recently pinned Roderick Strong.

But now we can absolutely confirm that the ROH World Television Championship match for FINAL BATTLE has been officially signed!  On Friday, December 18th, Bobby Fish challenges Roderick Strong with the title on the line. This means that all three ROH Championships will be defended LIVE on pay-per-view at FINAL BATTLE 2015!

As always, ROHWRESTLING.com is the place for the latest updates on stars and matches signed for December 18th and 19th, but don’t wait to get your tickets. ROH events in Philadelphia SELL OUT, and FINAL BATTLE 2015 is a can’t miss conclusion to our best year yet!
