Samoa Joe will defend the ROH World Championship at ROH Final Battle.
Juice Robinson appeared in a video during the December 2 episode of AEW Rampage and challenged Joe to a match at the pay-per-view. Robinson referenced his background as a former three-time IWGP United States Champion with New Japan Pro-Wrestling and made it clear that he wants to prove himself in America.
Robinson made his AEW debut when he faced Jon Moxley in an AEW World Title Eliminator match on the September 28 episode of AEW Dynamite. He has also worked for IMPACT Wrestling, where he is a former IMPACT World Tag Team Champion with David Finlay. “Rock Hard” also continues to wrestle at NJPW STRONG tapings.
