Matt Taven is in the ring. He says that last time he was in Baltimore, Maryland, The Righteous (Vincent, Bateman, Vita Von Starr, Dutch) sent him to the hospital for two surgeries. Since then, a lot of things have happened, but his memories have been ruined by someone he once called a friend, and as Taven says there is only one solution to this, The Righteous shows up. Vincent wants to know why he is sad and telling a sob story, as he has the attention he wanted. Before Vincent cannot say much else, Taven says that this place is not big enough for the two of them and that he has a contract for Night Two of Glory By Honor where they have one last match, as he will leave Ring of Honor forever if Vincent agrees to the match. Vincent says he does not want his career, as he built his career, but he does have something that he wants: a shot at the ROH World Championship. Taven also agrees to putting his shot at the World title on the line as long as Vincent agrees that this is the last match between them. Vincent says he has the keys now and that he will lock them both in the cage, effectively making this a steel cage match, as he agrees to the match. Taven then hits Vincent with the table in the ring before fending off the rest of The Righteous, but Vincent lays him out with a cheap shot. Bateman and Dutch then throw Taven through the neon sighn in the ladder, and Vincent tells Taven that he will bury him with his eyes above the surface to watch him become ROH World Champion after Taven buried him for four years as part of The Kingdom.
