Here’s your Fight Size wrestling Update for Ring Of Honor’s ‘Final Battle’ PPV.
– Following the main event of ‘Final Battle’, according to PWInsider the crowd chanted for both SCU and The Young Bucks to not leave. Nick Jackson stated that the Hammerstein Ballroom is one of his favorite venues to wrestle in and he was joined in the ring by Matt Jackson, Adam Page, Marty Scurll and Cody. Matt Jackson got on the microphone and made it clear that he was not going to be delivering a emotional speech but he thanked the fans and Cary Silkin and added that without Cary none of what they’ve done would’ve been possible. Matt thanked Joe Koff and Greg Gilliend and told the fans to tune into ‘Being The Elite’ and that ‘The Elite’ would be back in New York City again.
