With only one WWE pay-per-view event until the WWE Royal Rumble, a big focus will be on the Ring of Honor and New Japan Pro Wrestling side of things as they put forth two of their biggest cards of the year within a month of each other.
Ring of Honor's Final Battle takes place December 15, and features many names that are familiar to even casual fans.
