Honor Roll - Ring of Honor recap for January 28, 2017

Special thanks to PWPonderings.com for helping me catch up with the main event.

The show begins with Adam Cole bragging about how he took the ROH World Championship back from Kyle O'Reilly at Wrestle Kingdom 11 and became the first-ever three-time ROH World Champion.

The Young Bucks (Matt and Nick Jackson) guest on commentary during the first match.

The Tempura Boyz (Sho Tanaka and Yohei Komatsu) beat Coast to Coast (LSG and Shaheem Ali) and the team of Cheeseburger and Will Ferrara. After the match, The Young Bucks (Matt and Nick Jackson) admit they made a challenge for the tag team titles to get The Broken Hardys ("Broken" Matt Hardy and Brother Nero) to show, but then they decided while they were on commentary to give the winner of the three-way tag match that took place a shot at the ROH World Tag Team Championships. They then superkick Sho and Yo, then introduce Adam Cole. Cole says that he is a god, a living legend and a history maker as he is Ring of Honor's first-ever three time World champion. He says that this makes him different from everyone, including the challengeers he has coming up such as Dalton Castle (whom he calls a gimmick) and Bobby Fish (who he says he might as well get rid of now that he's gotten rid of Kyle o'Reilly), and Jay Lethal and Jay Briscoe (saying he's beaten them before and that he can beat them again). He says that 2017 will be a great year as Bullet Club will continue to run the show and Adam Cole will continue to run Ring of Honor. The Young Bucks then "too sweet" Adam Cole.

"The Villain" Marty Scurll retains the ROH World Television Championship against Juice Robinson (perhaps best known as CJ Parker from NXT). After the match, Scurll says he came to Ring of Honor to compete, but hasn't seen any competition.

Chris Sabin says that six men will prove there is competition for "The Villain" Marty Scurll in Ring of Honor. He goes on to say that since iron sharpens iron, those six men will battle to earn the right to challenge for the ROH World Television Championship.

Jay Briscoe beats Jay Lethal to continue on in the Decade of Excellence Tournament.
