WWE / Indie News:  James Ellsworth will defend his World Intergender Championship on Chris Jericho's cruise

What's the story?

On Wednesday afternoon, Chris Jericho made another announcement for his upcoming cruise, the Rock 'N' Wrestling Rager At Sea. In addition to James Ellsworth being a part of the cruise, he will defend his World Intergender Championship as well.

In case you didn't know...

Ellsworth became a cult favourite in the WWE shortly after he debuted in a squash match against Braun Strowman in July of 2016.

He would make a return a few months later to get involved in Dean Ambrose and AJ Styles feud before signing a full-time deal to work alongside Carmella.

The heart of the matter...

Jericho made the announcement via his Instagram account on Wednesday, and take a look at the promo that Ellsworth recorded below:

The World Intergender Championship is actually a title that Ellsworth created himself a little more than two months ago.

There has been one defence of the championship since, and it was against Joey Ryan at BAR Wrestling at the end of February. Take a closer look at the title below:

At the time of this writing, it is unknown which man or woman will face Ellsworth for the title on the Rock 'N' Rager at sea.

Some potential male and female candidates among those already announced for the cruise could be Brandi Rhodes, Deonna Purrazzo, or maybe Cheeseburger.

What's next?

Stay tuned to Sportskeeda for further announcements regarding Chris Jericho's Rock 'N' Wrestling Rager At Sea. The cruise takes off on October 27th from Miami, Florida, as it heads to the Bahamas.

Author's take...

I think Ellsworth is a great addition to the Jericho cruise and it'll be interesting to see who he defends his title against.

Hopefully, there will be a day where Ellsworth is back in the WWE again because I think he definitely adds a lot of value to the roster.
