Women's title match to main event ROH Final Battle

Athena vs. Billie Starkz for the Women's World Championship will be in the main event spot of ROH Final Battle. 

As announced during Thursday's Ring of Honor TV episode, the Women's World title bout will headline the Friday, December 15 show in Garland, Texas. 

After a months-long storyline with Starkz serving as Athena's "Minion in Training," Starkz snapped on the November 30 edition of the show after being snubbed as the valedictorian of Athena's MIT graduating class and the title match was made official for Final Battle. 

A Survival of the Fittest six-way to crown a new ROH World Television Champion is also set for Final Battle, with five of the six spots in that bout now filled after this week's Ring of Honor TV show. 

Keith Lee vs. Shane Taylor, plus Ethan Page vs. Tony Nese in an I Quit match are also official for next Friday's event. 

Bryan Danielson also issued a challenge for FTR & Mark Briscoe to face Danielson, Wheeler Yuta, and another member of the Blackpool Combat Club in a trios match at the show in a tribute match to the late Jay Briscoe, although that match has yet to be made official. 

Here is the current official lineup for the Friday, December 15 Final Battle show, airing at 7 p.m. Eastern time on the Honor Club streaming service: 

• ROH Women's World Champion Athena defends against Billie Starkz
• Survival of the Fittest six-way elimination match to crown a new ROH World Television Champion: Dalton Castle vs. Komander vs. Lee Moriarty vs. Lee Johnson vs. Kyle Fletcher vs. TBD
• Keith Lee vs. Shane Taylor
