There's a new Television Champion in ROH.
At tonight's ROH War of the Worlds event in Toronto, Shane Taylor won the ROH Television Championship in a fatal four-way bout that also featured Jeff Cobb, Hirooki Goto, and Brody King. The finish saw Taylor take out Cobb after Cobb had hit Tour of the Islands on Brody King. Taylor followed up with Greetings From 216, pinning King to win the title.
After the bout, Cobb tried to show some respect by handing the title to the new champion. However, Taylor was having none of it, snatching the belt from Cobb and telling him that he is now at the back of the line despite not being involved in the decision.
