Shibata & more New Japan stars announced for ROH’s next PPV

NEVER Openweight champion Shibata is heading to Ring of Honor for the first time for the “Death Before Dishonor” PPV on August 19 in Las Vegas.

Shibata, who is arguably the hardest-hitting wrestler on New Japan’s roster, joins a loaded talent roster from NJPW heading to Vegas.

ROH also announced Wednesday that former IWGP World champion Naito and EVIL from the L.I.J. are booked for Vegas.

Plus, Guerrillas of Destiny and Yujiro Takahashi from the Bullet Club have been added.
