Honor Roll - Ring of Honor recap for August 6, 2016

Jay White beats Will Ferrara.

Shibata is coming to ROH at Death Before Dishonor on August 19th...

Mark Briscoe is in the ring. He says he was supposed to be the special guest for The Fish Tank, but says he has delved into the inner workings of the segment and says it's nothing but communist propaganda and divisive rhetoric. He says that it is a front for Bobby Fish to perform mind control, and asks the producers to play his music when Bobby Fish shows up. He then says he will not guest on The Fish Tank and instead host his own show, The Chicken Shack, with Bobby Fish as the segment's very first special guest. Mark Briscoe then introduces Bobby Fish. Fish says he looks like a million dollars while Briscoe looks like an unmade bed. After some odd questions ("Which came first: the chicken or the fish" and "The last time you were in Las Vegas, did you really marry an Ethiopian pigeon?"), Mark Briscoe makes it clear he plans to take the ROH World Television Championship from Fish. Fish then asks Mark Briscoe who he would be if he did, and says that he would be Jay Lethal's secondary title, because as soon as he wins it, it goes back to number two as Fish brought it to the forefront after making Tomohiro Ishii tap out. This gets Mark Briscoe fired up, and security holds him back as Bobby Fish tells him that Vegas is coming and the clock is ticking.

The Addiction (Christopher Daniels and Frankie Kazarian) say that the conspiracy continues and the deck is stacked against them, as they've beaten The Motor City Machine Guns (Chris Sabin and Alex Shelley) and War Machine (Hanson and Rowe) before and now they have to retain the ROH World Tag Team Championships again.

Jay Lethal retains the ROH World Championship against Colt Cabana. Colt Cabana shakes Jay Lethal's hand after the match, then Jay Lethal asks ROH Commissioner Nigel McGuinness to come to the ring. He does, and tells Nigel McGuinness that there is somebody left to defend the title against: Adam Cole. He asks Nigel to lift the ban on Adam Cole so he can get revenge against him at Death Before Dishonor. McGuinness refuses, saying that if he gives Adam Cole a title shot, he will come across as a hypocrite. Adam Cole shows up and says "You've got to be kidding me," before asking if anybody believes what's happening, thinking that Lethal and McGuinness are in cahoots. He says that unless Jay Lethal defends the title against him, his title reign means nothing. He says that the locker room refers to Lethal as a little bitch instead of the greatest first-generation wrestler, and Lethal tells McGuinness that the only way to set him straight is to beat him on pay-per-view in front of the entire world, and begs McGuinness to reconsider. McGuinness lifts the ban on World title shots for Adam Cole, and Lethal will officially defend the ROH World Championship against Cole at Death Before Dishonor.
