War of the Worlds 2017 - The Results

Before the next match, "The Last Real Man" Silas Young calls out KUSHIDA for wearing a New York Yankees jersey before getting a cheap shot on KUSHIDA and stomping on the jersey.

Dalton Castle beats Bobby Fish, KUSHIDA and "The Last Real Man" Silas Young in a Four Corners Survival Match.

"Hangman" Adam Page beats "The Heavy Metal Rebel" Frankie Kazarian after grabbing the middle rope.

War Machine (Hanson and Rowe) beats Los Ingobernables de Japon (EVIL and Sanada) and Search and Destroy (Chris Sabin and Jonathan Gresham). Search and Destroy shakes hands with War Machine after the match.

"The Aerial Assassin" Will Ospreay beats Jay White. Both men show respect after the match, but after Jay White leaves, Punishment Martinez shows up and attacks Ospreay. Jay White gets back in the ring, but he does not fare any better. Martinez then leaves through the crowd.

Before the next match, Bully Ray - who appears in the upper section of the crowd - tells Hirooki Goto and Roppongi Vice (Trent Baretta and Rocky Romero) that he has some good news and some bad news. The bad news is that the three of them are going to get the ass-whipping of their lifetimes, and the good news is that the match is officially a no-disqualification match.

The Briscoes (Jay and Mark Briscoe) and Bully Ray retain the ROH World Six-Man Tag Team Championships against Hirooki Goto and Roppongi Vice (Trent Baretta and Rocky Romero). After the match, Bully Ray starts an "ROH" chant.

The Young Bucks (Matt and Nick Jackson) retain the ROH World Tag Team Championships against Los Ingobernables de Japon (Tetsuya Naito and BUSHI).

We see the presentation of IWGP's newest championship: the IWGP United States Championship. Jay Lethal is announced as one of the participants in a tournament to determine the first United States champion, but "Nagman" Adam Page shows up showing his disgust with Lethal being picked over him. Page is ejected from the ring by security.

Hiroshi Tanahashi beats Adam Cole. The crowd chants "Thank you, Adam!" as The Young Bucks (Matt and Nick Jackson) get into the ring and hug Adam Cole, then the arena goes dark. We see "The Cleaner" Kenny Omega on the video screen, who says this is Adam's special moment and curtain call and wishes he could be there, but cannot. Nevertheless, he sends his special thanks, telling him that his tenure in Bullet Club and professional wrestling has been long and storied, but like all fairy tales, there has to be a hero and there has to be a villain. He then tells Adam Cole that he is fired, and that he is replaced by the man sitting next to Kenny Omega: "The Villain" Marty Scurll. The light eventually come on, and Scurll is now in the ring. Scurll takes off his mask, and opens his umbrella to reveal there is a Bullet Club logo on it. Scurll waves goodbye as The Young Bucks hit Cole with a pair of superkicks. Scrull then opens his jacket to reveal a Bullet Club shirt underneath before smacking Cole with another umbrella. Scurll then holds Cole up by the neck with the umbrella handle, and The Young Bucks - figuratively, literally and symbolically - kiss Cole goodbye.

"The Almighty" Christopher Daniels retains the ROH World Championship against Jay Lethal and "The American Nightmare" Cody Rhodes. During the match, Lethal sends Cody into Daniels, who is standing on the apron, and Daniels falls into a table. Cody kicks Lethal into referee Todd Sinclair and proceeds to kick Lethal in the groin. When Lethal goes for a Lethal Injection, Cody turns it into a Cross Rhodes, but Lethal kicks out. Cody goes for a Figure Four Leg Lock, but Daniels gets back into the ring and hits Cody with the Best Moonsault Ever to retain.

Best In The World is June 23rd!
