Zack Sabre Jr. Claims NJPW World TV Championship in Impressive Victory
In a thrilling match at Ring of Honor Wrestling in Nashville for Honor Club on August 24, Zack Sabre Jr. emerged victorious in his challenge against Christopher Daniels for the NJPW World TV Championship. The British wrestler showcased his technical prowess and determination, ultimately securing the title and solidifying his position as one of the top contenders in the promotion.
The match started with an intense exchange of holds, with both wrestlers showcasing their technical skills. Daniels managed to ground Sabre with a side headlock, but the champion quickly transitioned to targeting his opponent’s arm. Daniels retaliated by focusing on Sabre’s neck, delivering a series of neckbreakers to gain the upper hand. However, Sabre’s resilience came into play as he executed a powerful shoulder snap, bringing Daniels down to the mat.
Sabre relentlessly pursued Daniels’ left arm, but the challenger’s right arm remained functional, allowing him to mount a comeback. A series of lariats from Daniels shifted the momentum in his favor. Just when it seemed like Sabre was in trouble, he landed a powerful kick to Daniels’ left side. However, Daniels quickly turned the tables with a Complete Shot, followed by a Koji Clutch that had Sabre in a precarious position.
Determined to retain his title, Sabre fought his way out of the hold. Daniels attempted to execute his finishing move, Angels Wings, but the damage done to his arm hindered his success. Sabre capitalized on the opportunity and locked in a double armbar submission, ultimately forcing Daniels to tap out. With this hard-fought victory, Sabre claimed the NJPW World TV Championship, moving to V11.
Continuing his impressive title reign, Sabre faced the challenge of Metalik the following week on ROH. In a display of technical mastery, Sabre dominated the match from the start, targeting Metalik’s arm with brutal efficiency. Despite Metalik’s valiant efforts, including a reverse slingblade and a breathtaking tope con giro, Sabre remained resilient.
In a desperate attempt to secure victory, Metalik executed a swinging DDT and attempted to deliver the Metalik Driver. However, Sabre countered with his signature double armbar submission, leaving Metalik with no choice but to tap out. Sabre’s successful defense marked his 12th consecutive victory, further solidifying his status as the reigning NJPW World TV Champion.
Looking ahead, Sabre is set to face Boltin Oleg for the TV title on September 8 in Korakuen Hall. Wrestling fans can expect another thrilling match as Sabre continues to establish himself as a dominant force in the NJPW World TV Championship scene.
