Honor Roll - Ring of Honor recap for January 22, 2026

Before the next match, "Smart" Mark Sterling talks about how he has not been attacked since 128 days ago when his bicep was ripped to the bone thanks to Story Denali. He then says that if the Dallas Cowboys had even one athlete the caliber of The Premier Athletes (Tony Nese, Ariya Daivari, Story Denali), then they would have made the playoffs instead of watching from the sidelines like the fan. He then gives the fans the chance to tell The Premier Athletes that they rule only to be told they suck.

Adam Priest and "The Dynamite Kid" Tommy Billington beat The Premier Atheletes (Tony Nese and Ariya Daivari) after Priest rolls up Nese. After the match, The Swirl ("Vanilla Baby" Blake Christian and "Big Shotty" Lee Johnson) and Jay Lethal attack Billington and Priest, with The Premier Athletes joining in. Lee Johnson and Jay Lethal put Billington and Priest in stereo Figure Four Leg Locks before they and Blake Christian go further on the attack while The Premier Athletes leave.

Satnam Singh beats Josiah Jean and Dante Leon in a two-on-one handicap match.

Cru (Lio Rush and Action Andretti) beat Alec Price and Jordan Oliver.

Dalton Castle and The Outrunners (Truth Magnum and Turbo Floyd) beat Auzzy, Hitt and Gino Medina in a six-man tag match.

We hear from "The Virtuosa" Deonna Purrazzo, who says that being part of Madison Rayne's last match means more than she can put into words. She says she has work to do in creating her legacy as the very first ROH Pure Women's Champion, then issues an open challenge to anyone anywhere, as she is a fighting champion by design and excellence is required.

"Taiga Style" Lee Moriarty beats "Daddy Magic" Matt Menard by submission with the Border City Stretch in an ROH Pure Championship Proving Ground Match. After the match, the rest of Shane Taylor Promotions (Shane Taylor, "The Captain" Shawn Dean, "Bad News and Tattoos" Carlie Bravo, Trish Adora) go on the attack on Matt Menard just before he can shake hands. Shane Taylor Promotions - including the mystery girl - retreat when Skyflight (Scorpio Sky, Darius Martin, Dante Martin, Zayda Steel) rush to the ring. All the while, Moriarty is disappointed that the attack occured.

Diamanté and Billie Starkz Londyn Dior and Rachael Ellering.

Big Bill and "The Bounty Hunter" Bryan Keith beat KM and "Mr. All Day" Will Allday.

Ace Austin beats Johnny TV.
