Bandido was scheduled to defend his ROH World Championship against Gresham in the main event. Unfourtanetly, Bandido contracted COVID-19 which prevented him from being on the card. <strong>Jay\u00a0Lethal<\/strong> stepped up and took the match against Gresham on short notice.<\/p>\n<p>During <em>Hour One<\/em> of <em>Final Battle 2021<\/em>, the stipulation was added that the match would be for the original ROH Championship. Gresham won the match and ROH went on hiatus after. Gresham defended the title against a variety of wrestlers in promotions such as <strong>GCW, IMPACT,<\/strong>\u00a0<strong>TERMINUS,<\/strong>\u00a0<strong>PROGRESS, DEFY,<\/strong> and many others. We will see if he continues to do so, now that ROH is under new ownership. Gresham now holds the only top prize in ROH. His win is fitting as his goal has been to restore the honor in Ring of Honor. He also has been key to revitalizing the Pure Divison in ROH. We will see who steps up to challenge him first now that he is the undisputed champion.<\/p>\n<p><em>To see where you can watch ROH on <a href=\"https:\/\/www.rohwrestling.com\/tv-listings\" target=\"_blank\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">TV<\/a>\u00a0or see the latest episode of\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.rohwrestling.com\/watch\" target=\"_blank\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">ROH TV<\/a>\u00a0click here.
