Bandido has been touted as a future world champion from the moment he debuted in Ring of Honor in early 2019.
The sensational luchador will finally get his first opportunity at the ROH World Title when he challenges fellow Mexican superstar RUSH in the main event of the Best in the World pay-per-view on July 11 in Baltimore.
Bandido earned the title shot by outlasting five other competitors to win the Survival of the Fittest elimination match. He did so despite wrestling with an injured left arm and shoulder, the result of a brutal attack by Demonic Flamita after Bandido had eliminated his former friend from the match.
With his extraordinary combination of strength, speed and agility, Bandido possesses all the tools to be champion.
However, the man he needs to beat to become champion has proved to be nearly unbeatable.
Since making his ROH debut in 2018, RUSH has only been pinned once, by PCO.
RUSH is one of only five men to have held the ROH World Title on multiple occasions; he defeated Matt Taven to win the championship the first time and PCO to regain it.
RUSH has successfully defended the title against the likes of Jay Lethal, Brody King, Shane Taylor and Jeff Cobb. Before winning the title, he defeated former world champion Dalton Castle on multiple occasions, including in 15 seconds at G1 Supercard in Madison Square Garden in 2019.
Another wrestler RUSH has beaten is Bandido. Both men were undefeated when RUSH scored a hard-fought victory in a thrilling, back-and-forth match at the 17th Anniversary show two years ago.
Not only is RUSH an incredibly gifted athlete, but he’s also one of the most vicious competitors in the sport and will stop at nothing to win, including using outside interference from his fellow La Faccion Ingobernable members.
Will RUSH continue his reign of terror at Best in the World? Or will Bandido make history by becoming the first masked wrestler to win the ROH World Title?
