Backstage, "Hangman" Adam Page states that he is one of the best heavyweights in the world, and demands a title shot in Ring of Honor.
Shane Taylor beats Eli Isom. After the match, Shane Taylor continues to attack Isom after bringing a steel chair into the ring, and is about to stomp the chair after wrapping it around Eli Isom's neck when Cheeseburger runs out and fights Taylor to no avail. Flip Gordon then runs in and Spears Taylor before hitting him with the steel chair. Afterwards, Flip Gordon asks Bully Ray if this is what he wanted when he told him to get extreme, then says he doesn't care what kind of match they have as he will fight him anywhere, anytime. Bully Ray then shows up and pretends to be impressed with Flip Gordon, then says that if Flip Gordon can't decide what kind of match he wants, the crowd can decide for them. He then says the crowd is not getting a TLC match, especially not tonight, and that Flip is getting nothing as he has done everything to him that there is to do and he has beaten him. After calling Flip Gordon a bottom-feeder while saying he is a God, he then asks Flip is he is a betting man. Flip tells Bully Ray he bets he can beat his ass tonight, then Bully Ray tells Flip Gordon to show up at the ECW Arena in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania and bring his best guy with him to fight Bully's best guy. If Flip's guy win, he can do anything to Bully Ray that he wants. If Bully's guy wins, then Bully gets to do whatever he wants to Flip. Flip accepts the challenge, and Bully Ray decides to make it easier on Flip by telling him that his guy next week is "The Last Real Man" Silas Young. He then tells Flip that his guy had better win next week, or else it will be the end of Flip Gordon.

Cheeseburger and Jushin "Thunder" Liger beat The Dawgs (Rhett Titus and Will Ferrara).
Dalton Castle says so many questions are in the air, and one of them is who the next challenge for the ROH World Championship will be, considering "The Villain" Marty Scurll claims he has a shot at the title after beating and "The American Nightmare" Cody Rhodes claims the same and also holds a victory over him. Regardless of whoever it is, he is more than ready to get in the ring with either of them.
Sumie Sakai retains the ROH Women of Honor Championship against Jenny Rose.

Kazarian there is nothing they will not do to take the titles back. Scorpio Say says he will never get tired of beating up The Young Bucks (Matt and Nick Jackson), and they have a score to settle with The Kingdom (Matt Taven, Vinny Marseglia, TK O'Ryan). Daniel say The Kingdom may be the first six-man tag champions and Bullet Club (Matt Jackson, Nick Jackson, "Hangman" Adam Page) may be the most popular six-man team, but they are the best.
We hear from "The Last Real Man" Silas Young, who says there are two kinds of people : those who are proud of the work and those who whine and cry until they are given what they want. He says that the latter best describes Austin Aries, who gets a shot at the ROH World Television Championship despite not being in the company for years. Next week, everyone will find out why he is not only "The Last Real Man," but also why "The Greatest Man That Ever Lived" is the biggest joke he's ever heard.
SoCal Uncensored ("Almighty" Christopher Daniels, "The Heavy Metal Rebel" Christopher Daniels, Scorpio Sky) beat The Kingdom (Matt Taven, Vinny Marseglia, TK O'Ryan) by disqualificaiton after Kazarian swings a steel chair only to hit the top rope, causing it to rebound and hit Karazian in the head. TK O'Ryan tries to pin Kazarian, but referee Paul Stone sees the chair as everyone else in the match surround Paul Stone, Matt Taven and Freankie Kazarian and stops the match.

He's been where Hogan's been and he's beaten the same people that Hogan has beaten, and now he's here to take on the big boys. He'll wait as long as it takes to get a title shot. Hogan tells him that he doesn't have to prove himself to him and accepts his challenge for the title for next week. Both men then get in a shoving match and have to be held back.
Next week: Sabu! Michael Wallstreet!
Steve "Mongo" McMichael is carrying a small dog in a devil costume at the end of the show.
