Match Set For ROH United Honor: London

ROH issued the following:

The ROH World Champion Dalton Castle has been battling injuries since winning the Championship from “The American Nightmare” Cody at Final Battle 2017. But despite these injuries, Castle has defeated Punishment Martinez, Jay Lethal, and “The Villain” Marty Scrull while defending the Championship on three continents.

Lately, these injuries have seemingly caught up to Castle, forcing the Champ to postpone his defense against Matt Taven. A pinched nerve in Castle’s back has limited the use of his back and his hip and legs and may be an explanation for the pins that Scurll at Masters of the Craft and Cody at Bound by Honor scored on Castle.

With Castle in his most vulnerable state, Castle has signed to defend the ROH World Championship in London against a man coming off three pinfalls at the War of the Worlds Tour but only if Castle is medically cleared to compete!

ROH WORLD CHAMPION DALTON CASTLE vs. CO-HOLDER OF THE IWGP HEAVYWEIGHT TAG TEAM CHAMPIONSHIP EVIL

The ROH World Champion has his back against the wall, battling a series of lingering back injuries that have worn him down physically and mentally and he has drawn one of the hottest international stars in EVIL for Honor United – London! EVIL is at the top of his game and has to be considered the War of the Worlds Tour MVP, scoring three pinfalls in three matches across four nights in two countries!

While EVIL is one-half of the IWGP Heavyweight Tag Team Champions, he also is an accomplished singles star, having held the NEVER Openweight Championship! Will Castle be medically cleared to compete and, if so, will he leave the UK with the title in tow or will Everything be EVIL with the championship heading to Japan?
