Already announced for SURVIVAL OF THE FITTEST 2014: Matt Sydal, Hanson, ACH, Adam Page, Caprice Coleman, Roderick Strong, Jay Lethal, Cedric Alexander, Adam Cole, Tadarius Thomas…plus TWO more names yet to be announced!
It’s an ROH tradition and this year it’s coming to Columbus and Toledo: SURVIVAL OF THE FITTEST! The most historic tournament in Ring of Honor has been won by legendary athletes such as Bryan Danielson, Delirious, Tyler Black, and Jay Lethal. It’s long been regarded as a critical step toward greatness in ROH and a huge accomplishment for whoever wins it.
This year, the finals of the tournament will take place in Toledo on November 8th! The final match of SURVIVAL OF THE FITTEST is an absolutely grueling Six Way Elimination match to determine most dominant athlete of the entire tournament! In addition, we have already confirmed THE ADDICTION VS THE BRISCOES in non-tournament action in Toledo! This is a first time ever match set for November 8th.
Today we can confirm another 1st round match up…JAY LETHAL VS HANSON!
Hanson is tearing through Ring Of Honor! Recently, the big man has had some huge opportunities against world class opponents. This weekend in Lakeland, he’s set to take on the man many call the best professional wrestler on the planet, AJ Styles
And his 1st round SURVIVAL OF THE FITTEST opponent is a Ring of Honor legend and the current ROH World TV Champion, JAY LETHAL! Along with his manager Truth Martini, Lethal represents the House of Truth – and he’s also a former Survival of the Fittest WINNER. He has the experience edge and knows what it takes to get through this grueling 2 days of wrestling. But Hanson is no stranger to tournaments himself! He started 2014 by winning the ROH Top Prospect Tournament and launched his Ring of Honor career. As the year winds to a close, what better accomplishment than another huge tournament victory! Moreover, Hanson has the size and strength advantage – over Lethal and anyone else who gets thrown in his path.
JAY LETHAL VS HANSON joins the already announced first round match of ACH VS MATT SYDAL in Columbus. And don’t forget, there are still TWO more names to be confirmed in SURVIVAL OF THE FITTEST 2014!
