FTR vs. Briscoes double dog collar Tag Team title match set for ROH Final Battle

As Tony Khan alluded to on a media call earlier Wednesday, there was a plan for ROH Tag Team Champions FTR for Saturday’s Final Battle and that plan was a third meeting with The Briscoes.

But the third match has a unique stipulation: a double dog collar match.

While The Briscoes didn’t appear on Dynamite Wednesday, the news of the match was delivered at the end of the show by the Gunns via a holiday card drawn in blood. It came after FTR unsuccessfully challenged The Acclaimed for the AEW Tag Team titles.

The two teams first met at April’s Supercard of Honor when FTR defeated The Briscoes for the ROH Tag Team titles. They met again at July’s Death Before Dishonor in a 2/3 falls match that FTR also won.

The other new addition to the card will see ROH Six-Man Tag Team Champions Dalton Castle & The Boys defend against The Embassy’s Brian Cage and the Gates of Agony. The build began on this week’s AEW Dark: Elevation and Dark and continued between Castle and Cage in Wednesday’s Diamond Diamond Ring battle royal.

Here’s the current card for Saturday’s ROH Final Battle from Dallas, Texas, with Zero Hour pre-show matches expected to be announced Friday:
