Honor Roll - Ring of Honor recap for December 9, 2017

"The Last Real Man" Silas Young guests on commentary for the next match.

Caprice Coleman pays off Shane Taylor - who accompanies him to the ring - with an envelope full of money.

Kenny King retains the ROH World Television Championship against Caprice Coleman after fending off Shane Taylor at ringside. After the match, Punishment Martinez shows up and misses the spinning kick only to eat one from King. Shane Taylor gets in the ring, and King tries to fend him off, but Taylor and Martinez together prove to be too much. "The Last Real Man" Silas Young gets in the ring, confronts them, then takes the boots to him. Martinez, Taylor and Silas all fight over who wants to take the boots to Kenny King.

The Addiction ("The Almighty" Christopher Daniels and "The Heavy Metal Rebel" Frankie Kazarian) show up. Daniels demands silence, and says they were attacked cowardly by War Machine (Hanson and Raymond Rowe) the last time they were in action. He says that Raymond Rowe injured a fan as War Machine tried to injure them and end their careers, and he has been suspended for 30 days. He says that when scandal turns a talented man into a pariah, he demands that both members of War Machine be suspended. As Kazarian says he does not care about the injured fan, Hanson runs in and attacks both men. Kazarian gets back into the ring with a steel chair and attacks Hanson repeatedly with it. The Addiction then tape Hanson to the middle rope with electrical tape, then Daniel grabs a box cutter he has pulled out from underneath the ring and proceeds to cut some of his beard off. He then asks Kazarian if he has ever seen Reservoir Dogs before teasing giving Hanson "the Vincent Van Gogh treatment." Security gets in and tries to detain The Addiction, but Hanson breaks out of the tape as The Addiction are busy with security and cleans house.

The Briscoes (Jay and Mark Brisco) show up, asking "Do you know who we are?" Jay then says they are the guys who will tell the fans the truth, and says the truth is that Bully Ray and Tommy Dreamer are nothing but cowards. He has asked what it will take for Bully Ray and Dreamer with them. They have ruined Bully's retirement, laid Dreamer out in his own backyard, and even trashed the Team 3D Academy. He says if they wouldn't come to them, they would come to Bully Ray and Dreamer, but they still have not answered the challenge. He then says Bully Ray and Dreamer are worse than cowards and that they are bitches. Suddenly, Bully Ray and Tommy Dreamer show up, but security run in from behind and stop them from getting in the ring, and Joe Koff has to run to ringside to talk Bully Ray and Tommy Dreamer out of it. Jay then asks if anyone thought they would ever see the day that Bully and Dreamer would take orders from a short old man. Joe Koff finally gets in the ring and tells The Briscoes he makes the matches around here, not them, and that they have disrespected everyone here tonight, including himself and every single fan who has ever had their backs. He tells them to be careful what they wish for, because their wish will come true. They will have their match at Final Battle and it will be brutal, extreme and "effing hardcore." After Joe Koff leaves, Bully and Dreamer go at it with The Briscoes, and security has to scramble to keep both teams apart.

"The Villain" Marty Scurll guests on commentary for the next match.

Matt Taven beats Jay Lethal. During the match, "The Villain" Marty Scurll tosses his umbrella into the ring. Jay picks it up, then after much hesitation, throws it back at Scurll. Matt Taven rolls Jay Lethal up and grabs the tights to get the win.

"The American Nightmare" Cody Rhodes is in the ring. Dalton Castle soon joins him for the contract signing for their match at Final Battle. Dalton tells Cody he looks ridiculous in his fur coat. Cody then eats an hors d'oeuvre before telling Castle he has to try them...after removing them all from the plate. When told he is not feeling the gravity of the situation by Ian Riccoboni, Cody says he is the ROH champion, then he and his wife Brandi Rhodes drink some champagne. Dalton then says he will break Cody's heart, then visit his uncle - who is a wiz at chemicals - and whip up a strong, easy-to-use adhesive. He will then fix his heart, put it back in his chest, then break it again when he takes the ROH Championship, because when Cody came to ROH, he got excited and he wanted to like him due to his love for wrestling and what he could do for the company. When he came here, however, he saw a "boy" who was unworthy of being ROH Champion as he is overdressed, overpaid and overrated. Cody drops his fur coat and tosses his sunglasses out as he tells Dalton to sign it. He does. Cody tosses his suit on the ground, signs it, then Dalton takes his champange and drinks it. Dalton Castle and an angry Cody Rhodes stare down, with Cody raising the ROH Championship into the air to end the show.
