CAN BANDIDO BEAT THE ODDS AGAIN WHEN HE DEFENDS ROH WORLD TITLE IN FOUR-WAY ELIMINATION MATCH AT DEATH BEFORE DISHONOR?

Bandido entered his match against then-ROH World Champion RUSH at Best in the World as the underdog, but he walked out as the new champion.

The odds will be stacked against Bandido again when he puts his championship on the line against Brody King, EC3 and Demonic Flamita in a four-way elimination match that headlines the Death Before Dishonor pay-per-view on Sept. 12 at Philadelphia’s 2300 Arena.

Speaking of odds, King might be the favorite in this match. Many consider the Violence unlimited behemoth to be the uncrowned champion, as he appeared to be on the verge of defeating RUSH for the title at Final Battle in December before outside interference from RUSH’s La Faccion Ingobernable teammates cost him the match.

In King’s most recent singles match, he scored a convincing victory over two-time former ROH World Champion Jay Lethal on the same night in which Bandido beat RUSH. King also has singles wins over former ROH World Champion Dalton Castle and former ROH World Television Champion Shane Taylor.

EC3 believes that his purpose is to become ROH World Champion. He’s a two-time former TNA World Champion, but he’s a much more dangerous and focused competitor today.

EC3 is a bit of an enigma, as he adheres to the Code of Honor but doesn’t have any friends or allies in ROH. “The Essential Character” is coming off impressive wins over Flip Gordon and Brian Johnson.

The challenger in this match Bandido knows best obviously is Demonic Flamita, his former teammate in MexiSquad. Since turning his back on Bandido and Rey Horus, Demonic Flamita has fully embraced his dark side and it’s working for him.

Demonic Flamita pinned Bandido when they squared off in April, making him the last man to pin Bandido before he won the ROH World Title.

This past weekend at Glory By Honor, Demonic Flamita earned his way into the title rankings by winning a Six-Way Mayhem Match. He also scored a big win over Horus in a no-disqualification match on last weekend’s episode of Ring of Honor Wrestling.

Will Bandido overcome the odds and retain his title? Or will a new world champion be crowned? Join us live in Philadelphia, on pay-per-view or streaming for HonorClub to find out!

JOSH WOODS CHALLENGES PURE CHAMPION JONATHAN GRESHAM AT DEATH BEFORE DISHONOR IN REMATCH FROM PURE TOURNAMENT SEMIFINALS

Josh Woods got sidetracked by his feud with former mentor Silas Young over the past several months, but he never lost sight of his ultimate goal.

After defeating Young in a Last Man Standing Match at Best in the World last month, “The Technical Beast” once again is laser-focused on winning the ROH Pure Title.

Woods will get his long-awaited title shot against ROH Pure Champion Jonathan Gresham at the Death Before Dishonor pay-per-view on Sept. 12 at Philadelphia’s 2300 Arena.

Gresham suffered a fractured cheekbone and eye socket during an eight-man tag match at Glory By Honor Night 2 on Aug. 21, but he is expected to be ready to compete at Death Before Dishonor.

The last time these two met was in the ROH Pure Tournament semifinals. Gresham beat Woods en route to winning the whole thing.

Since then, Woods has worked his way up to being the No. 1 contender by scoring victories in Pure Rules matches over the likes of former ROH World Champions Jay Lethal and Dalton Castle, as well as his nemesis, Young.

Gresham has literally been unbeatable in Pure Rules Matches. “The Octopus” is 12-0 in such bouts, including seven successful title defenses. Gresham has not lost a one-on-one match of any type since December 2019.

Will Gresham continue his dominance of the Pure division? Or will Woods be the first man to beat Gresham in a Pure Rules Match and dethrone him? Join us live in Philadelphia, on pay-per-view or streaming for HonorClub to find out!
