Jeff Cobb's reign as NEVER Openweight Champion has quickly come to an end.
The ROH World Television champion originally won the title back at the ROH-NJPW G1 Supercard show in Madison Square Garden; Cobb defeated Will Ospreay in a really good opener that saw the Ring of Honor star connect with his finisher to get the three count.
Unfortunately, Cobb isn’t able to showcase his talent amongst the New Japan roster as during night one of NJPW's Wrestling Dontaku event, Taichi defeated Jeff Cobb to win the NEVER Openweight Title.
The bout against Taichi was his first championship defense. Taichi is now a two-time NEVER Openweight Champion. He first won the belt back in Sept. 2018, which was a reign that lasted 47 days.
