Yuta previously defeated <strong>Josh Woods<\/strong> at Supercard of Honor earlier this year to win the title for the first time. He was defeated by Daniel Garcia at Death Before Dishonor in a feud that has been part of the larger Jericho Appreciation Society versus Blackpool Combat Club program.<\/p>\n<p>The match started off hot as both men used their closed fists to the face in the opening moments of the match. From there Garcia made it difficult for Yuta as he forced Yuta to use all three of his rope breaks early in the match. Garcia also had all three of his rope breaks available to him when Yuta had used all three of his.<\/p>\n<p>Yuta turned things around and won the match after a series of strikes to the head and neck forced the referee to stop the match in true Blackpool Combat Club fashion. The Blackpool Combat Club is hoping to continue the momentum as <strong>Claudio Castagnoli<\/strong> will challenge <strong>Chris<\/strong>\u00a0<strong>Jericho<\/strong> for the ROH World Championship in the main event of the night.<\/p>\n<p>Stay tuned to Last Word on Sports for More Final Battle news as it becomes available.<\/p>\n<p><em>Header photo credit \u2013 ROH.
