Shane Taylor is the new Ring of Honor TV Champion. He won the title at ROH’s War of The Worlds. He was a contender for the TV Title, and succeeded in winning it. It was a Four Corner Survival Match and by winning, he took the title away from Jeff Cobb. This is Taylor’s first title victory at ROH
Taylor’s victory was a surprise for many fans. He spoke about his victory on the WINCLY Podcast.
"Me describing it to you wouldn't do it justice, but to see all of the shocked faces…it was incredible. I live for those moments – the moments that make people look stupid, the moments that shock the world and shake up landscapes. That's what I live for and that's what I was able to do in Toronto," said Taylor before
He won the title by not actually pinning Cobb. He was questioned about it.
"Woah! Woah! Woah! I didn't beat him," Taylor asked about Cobb. "…If two teams are playing in the Super Bowl but one team is missing a player due to injury, does that Super Bowl not count? It's no different here,” said Taylor
In recent years, Ring of Honor has grown. They are at the moment, one of the best indie wrestling promotions of the world. Ring of Honor still has a long way to go before they start challenging the WWE.
