Honor Roll - Ring of Honor recap for February 17, 2018

"The Almighty" Christopher Daniels talks about his and Scorpio Sky's history with The Young Bucks (Matt and Nick Jackson), and says he, Scorpio Sky and "The Heavy Metal Rebel" Frankie Kazarian will take the ROH World Six-Man Championships from them and Adam Page, as "the end is near." Meanwhile, Matt Jackson is excited that he, Nick Jackson and "Hangman" Adam Page will face SoCal Uncensored (Daniels, Kazarian, Scorpio Sky) with the six-man titles on the line. Adam Page yells that he will break SoCal Uncensored, and The Young Bucks have to calm him down.

Jay Lethal beats Flip Gordon. After the match, Colt Cabana announces that Jay Lethal will take on Dalton Castle for the ROH World Championship at ROH's 16th Anniversary Show. Jay says he will become a two-time ROH World Champion, then "The Villain" Marty Scurll shows up demanding to know why he is not getting a title shot. Jay reminds Scurll he has defeated a long list of people and that he beat him at Final Battle. Scurll says that if he is so confident that he can beat him, then he would like to be the first person Jay Lethal defend against. Jay Lethal says he likes to think himself a man of the people, and says he will have no problem beating him again. Scurll says "Perfect," then leaves.

We hear from Brandi Rhodes and Karen Q before the next match.

Brandi Rhodes beats Karen Q with an inside cradle to advance to the quarter-finals of the Women of Honor Championship Tournament after faking an ankle injury.



"The Villain" Marty Scurll walks in on Dalton Castle's backstage promo, and proposes that should Dalton Castle retain the ROH World Championship against Jay Lethal, he should become the next person Dalton Castle defends the title against. Dalton Castle tells Scurll that he has no idea what he is getting himself into, but Scurll tells him to think about it.

Next week: Kenny King vs. "The Last Real Man" Silas Young for the ROH World Television Championship!

SoCal Uncensored ("Almighty" Christopher Daniels, "The Heavy Metal Rebel" Frankie Kazarian, Scorpio Sky) beat Bullet Club (Matt Jackson, Nick Jackson, "Hangman" Adam Page) to win the ROH World Six-Man Championships...almost. During the match, Daniels is tapping to a Sharpshooter by Matt Jackson, but Kazarian has referee Todd Sinclair distracted. Nick Jackson takes out Kazarian with a senton bomb to the outside, but Scorpio Sky takes one of the six-man titles and smacks Matt Jackson in the head with it to get the win. After the match, Bully Ray shows up, and says that he has watched every single match backstage since Final Battle, and says ROH is a lot like the Wild West and doing whatever they want to do to win. He says that Ring of Honor lacks honor, and that he has just got off the phone with ROH CEO Joe Koff, who has told him to do whatever he needs to get some order back into the company. Bully Ray states he does not want to be a boss, a general manager or an authority figure; instead, he will be an enforcer, and he is going to enforce the Code of Honor that guys like Nigel McGuinness started a long time ago. He tells SoCal Uncensored that he will not get away with what they have been doing as of late anymore, and asks the crowd if they should restart the match. The crowd excitedly agrees, and Bully Ray rules that the match will be restarted, and Bullet Club hit SoCal Uncensored with a round of superkicks before Daniels falls victim to the Meltzer Driver, allowing Bullet Club to retain.
