MASADA ANSWERS THE RODDY VS THE WORLD CHALLENGE 1/9 IN CONCORD, NC

Sat, January 9th – Concord, NC – 7pm Bell Time

Ring of Honor is starting off 2016 HOT with a huge return to the Charlotte area on the WINTER WARRIORS TOUR! All your favorite ROH stars are headed to Concord, NC on January 9th for our very first television taping of the year. This event features the opening round matches of the 2016 ROH TOP PROSPECT TOURNAMENT! But in addition to the brightest, upcoming stars in professional wrestling, ROH officials are lining up even more matches to set the stage for our biggest year ever. Just signed for January 9th…

ROH World Television Championship
RODERICK STRONG vs MASADA

RODDY VS. THE WORLD! Now that he’s finally reclaimed the ROH World Television Championship, Roderick Strong has proclaimed he’s defending it against anyone and everyone. He’s known as “Mr. ROH” and for good reason: over his career, Strong has defined Ring of Honor. He is a Triple Crown Champion and Survival of the Fittest winner whose athleticism and explosiveness have only increased in the past year!

But at FINAL BATTLE, we saw shades of a more opportunistic, less honorable Roderick Strong in his defense against Bobby Fish. Strong viciously took advantage of a miscommunication and added a new layer of ruthlessness to RODDY VS. THE WORLD!

Strong is going to need every bit of aggression he can muster on January 9th when he defends his championship against MASADA! Masada is an internationally traveled star renowned for his special brand of violence. Masada is a completely unique competitor unlike anyone else, not just in ROH but in all of professional wrestling. In addition to his trademark brutality, Masada is also an accomplished wrestler who can go hold-for-hold with the best. It’s this unexpected combination of skills that makes him nearly impossible to scout and unforgettable to watch!

This stop of the ROH WINTER WARRIORS keeps getting bigger and bigger. Don’t miss the very first ROH event of the year! You can be there LIVE to see the first round of the ROH TOP PROSPECT TOURNAMENT, Roderick Strong vs. Masada, and so much more.
