 The next Pure title match will take place on next week's ROH TV.

On Saturday’s AEW Collision, it was announced that Katsuyori Shibata will wrestle Nick Wayne on next week’s edition of ROH television. Shibata also announced that he would be wrestling at AEW WrestleDream on October 1. However, he didn’t announce who he would face.

Since winning the Pure Championship earlier this year, Shibata has been making regular title defenses. Some of his most recent championship matches have had him defeat the likes of Daniel Garcia, Josh Woods, Lee Moriarty, and Alex Coughlin. He also appeared at Forbidden Door earlier this summer, losing a four-way match for the AEW International title involving Garcia, Zack Sabre Jr., and then-champion Orange Cassidy, who emerged victorious.

Wayne made his debut for AEW back in July and has associated himself with Darby Allin. On this week’s Dynamite, they defeated Angelo Parker and Matt Menard. He also participated in the recent AEW World Title Eliminator Grand Slam Tournament, losing to Allin in the quarterfinals.
