“The Fallen Angel” Christopher Daniels has held the ROH World TV Title since December 12, 2010 when he defeated current ROH World Champion Eddie Edwards in Louisville, KY. After winning the belt, Daniels vowed to be a fighting champion, whether it is on TV, iPPV, or otherwise; and largely stood by that promise as he successfully retained the belt on 6 separate occasions. Then came The House of Truth…
At “Honor Takes Center Stage: Chapter 2”, Christopher Daniels shocked the world by lambasting El Generico upside the head with The Book of Truth and laying out Colt Cabana with The Angel’s Wings. Daniels had elected to stand beside Truth Martini, Roderick Strong, & Michael Elgin as a full-fledged member of the HoT.
ROH officials, in lieu of garnering a new television show after “ROH on HDNet” ended, placed the belt on hiatus, much to the glee of Daniels. Yet “The Fallen Angel” expressly stated that he would still carry the belt to ringside with him on all live events lest anyone forget who the “only TV star in ROH” truly is. But would he put up the belt on his own merit? Just look at his recent bouts against Colt Cabana and El Generico to answer that question.
Cheat to win against Cabana once at “Revolution: USA”, a loss to El Generico at “Revolution: Canada”, and a loss to Colt in their rematch at “Supercard of Honor VI”; right now there are two different men who hold pinfall victories over the “champion”, two men who both have a legitimate claim on challenging for that title. And with the news of Ring of Honor’s impending debut on Broadcast TV, ROH officials have reinstated the World TV Title, and Daniels will make his first defense live on iPPV at “Best in the World 2011”!
As for his opponent: none other than the man who bested him in Toronto, the first of the two individuals who pinned Christopher Daniels, “The Generic Luchador” El Generico! For the first time, Generico will challenge for the ROH World TV Title, and it will all go down live on iPPV with GoFightLive!
