A new challenger will look to dethrone Matt Taven from his kingdom.
Ring of Honor has confirmed that the ROH World Champion will defend his title against CMLL star Volador Jr. at the September 7th Global Wars Espectacular show in Chicago.
The match-up was made due to the Lucha Libre star defeating Taven in singles competition on August 3, 2018. The Kingdom member was actually pinned twice that evening, as Volador Jr. and Taven had a two-out-of-three falls match that resulted in the CMLL star regaining the NWA World Historic Welterweight title.
Now, the ROH World Champion must put the top title in Ring of Honor on the line against a man that has some serious momentum behind him going into the bout. Will Matt Taven avenge his loss and retain the ROH World title? Or will Volador Jr. defeat Matt Taven and capture the prestigious ROH World Championship? We’ll find out on September 7th!
