Chris Sabin beats Scorpio Sky. After the match, Alex Shelley says that he and Sabin have been a tag team for about twelve years, and when they came to ROH many years ago, their goal was to make it to the top of the mountain, and they did it. Alex Shelley says he feels he does not have much left to offer to pro wrestling as a whole, and that The Motor City Machine Guns are no longer needed. Shelley says he has come to this conclusion after having his teeth put back into place a third time, as a visit to the dentists makes you wonder how you got there. He says that this may be either retirement or a "see you later," and asks Chris Sabin to validate everything and prove they were the best tag team in professional wrestling for a period of time. The crowd chants "Thank you!", but Shelley says he should be saying that to the fans, and says he and Sabin's individual talents were what made them a great tag team in addition to the fans. Shelley then asks Sabin to fulfill his potential however he can and become a great singles competitor, hopefully by starting with the ROH World Television Championship. As Shelley and Sabin hug, Punishment Martinez shows up and pulls both men apart before driving Sabin face-first into a steel chair. He is about to do the same to Shelley when Scorpio Sky runs back into the ring with a steel chair, driving Martinez out.
We hear from Kenny King, who says he is at a crossroads between who he is now and the champion he wants to be. He says that he cannot stop, and his path has led him to "The Villain" Marty Scurll. Tonight, he plans to take a page from Scurll's playbook and make a villain bend the knee.

Karen Q beats Jenny Rose. During the match, "The Gatekeeper" Kelly Klein gets on the apron and tosses her mouth guard into the ring, distracting Jenny Rose and giving Karen Q the schoolgirl pin for the win. After the match, Klein stomps Jenny Rose, then Karen Q tells Klein that she did not need her help to win. After Karen Q leaves, Klein continues to stomp Jenny Rose and then slams her dentist's bill on her in revenge for Jenny Rose chipping one of her front teeth.

We hear from The Kingdom (Matt Taven, TK O'Ryan, Vinny Marseglia). Marseglia congratulates "The American Nightmare' Cody Rhodes and The Young Bucks for getting on the same page. He says that Cody and The Bucks feed off of each other and as a result, ROH has handed them a six-man title shot that they do not deserve. O'Ryan tells them to get on whatever page works best for them, as they will rip that page from the manual and burn it until there is nothing but dust.
