Ring of Honor has announced that ROH and TV champion Shane Taylor have agreed to a buyout of his contract, which is effective immediately. This is believed to be a storyline, but we will provide more details as we get them. The ROH statement reads:

OFFICIAL STATEMENT ON THE STATUS OF SHANE TAYLOR AND THE ROH WORLD TELEVISION TITLE

Ring of Honor Wrestling and Shane Taylor have agreed to terms on a buyout of his contract, effective immediately.

ROH is currently in negotiations with Taylor for him to make his advertised defense of the ROH World Television Title at the Death Before Dishonor pay-per-view on Sept. 27 in Las Vegas against Flip Gordon and Tracy Williams in a Triple Threat Match.

This comes after Taylor complained last week about not being featured on the poster for Death Before Dishonor.
