A new bout has been set for Death Before Dishonor.
As announced on today's episode of AEW Control Center, Mercedes Martinez is officially set to defend the ROH Women's World Championship against former partner Serena Deeb at the upcoming Death Before Dishonor pay-per-view. The match came about after Deeb turned on Martinez on the July 9 edition of AEW Rampage, which led to 'The Professor' standing over Martinez while holding the championship.
