Honor Roll - Ring of Honor recap for May 23, 2024

Backstage, we hear from JD Drake, who says that just because unfortunate circumstances happen does not mean that the work stops. As he says it is time to tighten up the bootstraps, Anthony Henry - who was recently released from ROH while injured but was hired back - appears and says that they will do this as a team. The Workhorsemen (JD Drake and Anthony Henry) announce it is time to clock in and punch out.

Kyle Fletcher beats London Lightning in an ROH World Television Championship Proving Grounds Match with only seconds left.

The Workhorsemen (JD Drake and Anthony Henry) beat The Spanish Announce Project (Angelico and Serpentico). After the match, Cole Karter and Griff Garrison show up and attack The Spanish Announce Project, and Cole Karter holds Serpentico down so that Griff can hit Serpentico with a chair. Angelico is able to grab Karter by the foot, allowing Serpentico to superkick Garrison and nearly hit him with the chair.

Backstage, "Daddy Magic" Matt Menard says that he has no idea where "Cool Hand" Angelo Parker is and that tonight, he has a gigantic opportunity in front of him, and if he gets a win over Mike Bennett tonight, he and Parker will get an opportunity at the ROH tag team gold.

"The Native Beast" Nyla Rose beat Riea von Slasher.

We see a vignette for Marina Shafir, who says that her father told her that life is full of problems and about how they are, and how she became her own problem. She then says that she will teach the fans as she heads out of the gym with her son.

Satnam Singh quickly beats "The Zombie Princess" Jimmy Jacobs.

We see footage of "All Heart" Blake Christian in the Best of the Super Juniors Tournament in New Japan Pro Wrestling, where Blake Christian is currently leading in the A Block.

Shane Taylor Promotions (Shane Taylor and Anthony Ogogo) beats Jon Cruz and Artemis Spencer.

"Daddy Magic" Matt Menard beats Mike Bennett after Matt Taven gets in the ring to throw powder into Daddy Magic's face only to hit Bennett with it instead. After the match, Taven attacks Daddy Magic from behind, and Bennett hits Daddy Magic with one of the tag team titles.

Backstage, Athena, Lexy Nair and Billie Starks hold an emergency Minion Empowerment Meeting. Athena says Queen Aminata has put her hands on her again, then Billie Starkz says that this is their show and that everyone else does nothing but talk, and that Queen Aminata can catch these hands and that Red Velvet has not done anything relevant as of late. Athena says she is glad they have stepped up, and while they can call themselves anything they want, Queen Aminata and Red Velvet cannot call themselves champions.

"Big Shotty" Lee Johnson, Action Andretti and Top Flight (Darius and Dante Martin) beat Cole Karter, Griff Garrison and The Premier Athletes (Tony Nese and Ariya Daivari). During the match, "Smart" Mark Sterling distracts referee Aubrey Edwards so that Griff Garrison and Cole Karter can place a metal folding chair in the corner. Suddenly, The Spanish Announce Project (Angelico and Serpentico) shows up and takes the chair away, and when Cole Karter confronts them, Serpentico sends him falling backwards on the ramp. Dante Martin then plants a distracted Griff Garrison on the mat with a half nelson bomb to get the win.

Here is the recap for tonight's show!
