Wheeler Yuta Defeats Katsuyori Shibata For ROH Pure Title On 11/25 AEW Rampage
Wheeler Yuta has become the first-ever three-time ROH Pure Champion by defeating Katsuyori Shibata on the November 25 AEW Rampage.
Yuta did not win the match by pure means as he low-blowed Shibata and used the seatbelt combination in order to defeat him.
After the match, instead of shaking Shibata’s hand, he kicked him in the balls and dropped him with a DDT. HOOK, the FTW Champion came in to make the save.
They’ve taken this #ROH Pure Championship bout to the outside of the ring!
