Black Friday - Ring of Honor recap for November 28, 2025

Backstage, we hear from Sammy Guevara. Guevara says that Rush is injured and cannot compete next week at Final Battle, which means that the ROH World Tag Team Championships have once again been held up. This time, Guevara's partner will be The Beast Mortos as they take back the tag team titles, as they are on fire more than they are and the tag team titles will be staying where they belong.

Shane Taylor Promotions (Shane Taylor, "Taiga Style" Lee Moriarty, Anthony Ogogo) beat The Dark Order (Evil Uno, Alex Reynolds, John Silver) by submission in a six-man tag match with a Border City Stretch from Moriarty to Evil Uno.

Backstage, we hear from "Vanilla Baby" Blake Christian. He finds it funny that he is in a match on a technicality despite carrying Ring of Honor all year, but says that this is fate, and states that Rush's misfortune is now his goldmine and he is in the Survival of the Fittest Match for the ROH World Championship. He says he made a name for himself at last year's Final Battle, and this year, he will become the ROH World Champion.

The Von Erichs (Marshall and Ross Von Erich) beat Fly Def ("Fly Brother" Warren Johnson and "Zackzilla" Zack Mason) via pinfall with the Iron Claw.

In backstage footage from earlier today, we hear from Jay Lethal and Adam Priest. Lethal issues an apology to Priest, feeling that he cost them their match with The Death Riders (Jon Moxley, Claudio Castagnoli, Daniel Garcia). Priest accepts his apology, then says that they have matches coming up and that they need to find "The Dynamite Kid" Tommy Billington.

Jay Lethal, Adam Priest and "The Dynamite Kid" Tommy Billington beat The Frat House (Griff Garrison, Cole Karter, Jacked Jameson) in a six-man tag match.

Yuka Sakazaki beats Serena Deeb to advance in the ROH Women's Pure Championship Tournament after Serena exhausts all of her rope breaks.

Before the next match, "Smart" Mark Sterling says that he and The Premier Athletes (Tony Nese, Ariya Daivari, Story Denali) have a term for the fans: NARPs, or "non-athletic regular people." He says that there is nothing wrong with being regular as long as they know they will never be premier, then lets the fans tell them that they rule only to be told that they suck.

The Premier Athletes (Tony Nese, Ariya Daivari, Stori Denali) beat Charity King, Exodus Prime and Gino Medina in a six-person tag match.

The Swirl ("Vanilla Baby" Blake Christian and "Big Shotty" Lee Johnson) beat Beef and "The Main Man" Oro.

In backstage footage from Full Gear, we hear from The Demand (Ricochet, Bishop Kaun, Toa Liona). They state that they told everyone so, and that the champion is in demand. They say that if you are in demand, you can make demands, and if one does not follow demands, they get put down.

Backstage, we hear from Nigel McGuinness, who - having no idea how many more matches he has left - challenges "Taiga" Lee Moriarty to a thirty-minute Iron Man Match at Final Battle.

Komander beats Mansoor.
