Shane Taylor To Challenge RUSH For ROH World Title

ROH is delivering with The Experience. 

Ring of Honor ran a poll on The Experience Facebook group asking fans who they would like to see challenge RUSH for the ROH World Championship. Fans voted for Shane Taylor to be the next challenger and ROH intends to deliver. 

Kevin Eck wrote in his Eck’s Files that Taylor will be an upcoming challenger for RUSH and the ROH World Title. A date for the bout has yet to be set. 

From ROH: 

Shane Taylor isn’t the only one who feels he deserves an ROH World Title shot.

Taylor was the winner by a wide margin of a poll on the ROH The Experience Facebook group page that asked which top contender should challenge two-time ROH World Champion RUSH.

Honor Nation demanded it, and ROH is going to deliver it.

The Taylor-RUSH match will happen as a direct result of the fans making their voices heard. It’s what The Experience, ROH’s groundbreaking fan engagement initiative, is all about.

A date has not yet been set for the first-time-ever singles match between the two hard-hitting competitors. 

Taylor is coming off a big win over two-time former ROH World Champion Jay Briscoe at Final Battle last month. RUSH, who scored a controversial victory over Brody King at Final Battle, has only been pinned once in ROH since making his debut in December 2018.

Fightful will report on when the match will take place once ROH announces the date.
