Officials from NJPW and ROH have been working around the clock to finalize matches for the War of the Worlds Toronto stop. And Toronto will get a rematch three years in the making!

JAY LETHAL vs. KUSHIDA

The Franchise of Ring of Honor Jay Lethal saw his star rise to new heights throughout his second reign as ROH World Television Champion. For 567 consecutive days, Lethal held the ROH World Television Championship, defending the championship a record 35 times. But Lethal would not have gotten to 35 had he not succeeded in one of his very first defenses against NJPW star KUSHIDA at the very first War of the Worlds event!

KUSHIDA came within a blink of an eye of capturing Lethal’s World Television Championship just over a month into Lethal’s record-setting 19 month reign the first and only time these two met. Now, four years later, KUSHIDA, who has since become a four-time IWGP Jr. Heavyweight Champion, defeating the likes of Kota Ibushi, Bushi, and Kenny Omega along the way, gets another opportunity to face Jay Lethal!

Lethal has been on a hot streak in singles competition that rivals almost any other point in his career, recently winning an instant classic versus Bobby Fish at Manhattan Mayhem, defeating “The American Nightmare” Cody in a historic Bullrope Match at Supercard of Honor XI, and earning a spot in the main event of the War of the Worlds Pay Per View following a win in a Four Corners Survival Match. But KUSHIDA is up for the challenge – KUSHIDA has said he wants to challenge for singles gold in ROH and a win over the number one contender for the ROH World Championship would go a long way to secure a title shot! Three years in the making, these two do battle once more in Toronto!

The stars of ROH and NJPW will be competing with and against one another on the War of the Worlds Tour and there is nothing like being there LIVE! Don’t miss your opportunity to witness the best in professional wrestling do battle. Tickets are moving fast and are now limited – don’t hesitate, get yours today!

And keep it locked into ROHWrestling.com for the full list of NJPW stars headed Stateside and for match signings!
