EC3 Match Added To ROH Glory By Honor XVIII Night 1

EC3 vs. Brian Johnson is now official for Night 1 of ROH's Glory By Honor XVIII event.

Ring of Honor has announced that EC3 and Johnson will face off for the first time ever at Glory By Honor XVIII Night 1 in Philadelphia next month. The storyline is that EC3 inserted himself into the ROH World Title picture with his Best In the World win over Flip Gordon, who is challenging ROH World Champion Bandido on the same night as EC3 vs. Johnson. A potential win over EC3 would be the biggest of Johnson's career.

ROH Glory By Honor XVIII Night 1 and Night 2 will air on Friday, August 20 and Saturday, August 21 from the 2300 Arena in Philadelphia. The events will air live on HonorClub. Below are the updated cards:
