Ring of Honor originally planned to have Chris Hero be the mystery partner for Eddie Edwards in a match against Roderick Strong and Jay Lethal at Final Battle. However, Hero was late arriving due to working for Combat Zone Wrestling the same night. An audible was called with B.J. Whitmer teaming with Edwards, and having Hero appear at the end of the night.

Powell's POV: The feeling of multiple sources is that the audible of having Hero appear at the end of the show worked out better than the original plan because it ended the show on a high note. For that matter, it was far less predictable, as it seemed everyone had Hero pegged to be the mystery partner of Edwards.
