The Kingdom (Matt Taven, TK O'Ryan, Vinny Marseglia) show up to start tonight's show. TK O'Ryan tells the fans that what is about to happen in the ring should have happened a long time ago. As he speaks, he demands that referee Todd Sinclair to stand in the corner and not move, and that ring announcer Bobby Cruiser look at him while he is talking. He says that The Kingdom has been silenced for far too long, and now they will finally be heard out. Sinclair is forced to hold Matt Taven's purple facsimile of the Ring of Honor World Championship as Vinny Marseglia announces that the conspiracy is dead, then TK O'Ryan forced Bobby Cruise to read from a list. Bobby Cruise runs down all of Taven's accomplishments in Ring of Honor as well as his career (as well as Taven's claim that he is responsible for Ring of Honor and New Japan Pro Wrestling selling out Madison Square Garden), then Matt Taven - who has been standing in the center of the ring - is coronated with the "Ring of Honor World Championship" as Bobby Cruise is forced by TK O'Ryan to name him the world champion. Sinclair is then forced by Marseglia to raise Taven's hand.
Kenny King beats Chase Owens with a roll-up after feigning a knee injury.
We hear from Coast To Coast (Shaheem Ali and LSG), who talk about their undefeated streak in 2018 as well as their recent victory against The Kingdom (Vinny Marseglia and TK O'Ryan). Next week, they face The Briscoes (Jay and Mark Briscoe) for the ROH World Tag Team Championships.
Before the next match, Flip Gordon says he has no problem fighting Shane Taylor, then calls out Bully Ray for putting his partner through a table at Death Before Dishonor to ensure the odds were against him in a match that Bully Ray not only chose, but made famous. He managed to put both Bully Ray and his partner "The Last Real Man" Silas Young through a table only for Bully Ray to screw him over. He wants to know what kind of match Bully Ray wants before Bully Ray suddenly shows up. He says that Flip Gordon should be more concerned with Shane Taylor than with hi, then asks if he is under his skin for kicking him in the balls and keeping him down. As Bully Ray continues to speak, Shane Taylor brings a steel chair to the ring, and as Flip Gordon turns around towards Shane Taylor, Silas Young shows up out of the crowd and hits Flip Gordon with a low blow before Shane Taylor hits Flip with the steel chair at Bully Ray's command. Bully Ray mockingly calls for help from the back as Shane Taylor and Silas Young have their way with Flip Gordon before Bully Ray asks Flip Gordon if he knows who he is.
We hear from The Briscoes (Jay and Mark Briscoe), who say that Coast To Coast (Shaheem Ali) have no chance in Hell of beating them for the ROH World Tag Team Championships.
We hear from Jay Lethal, who talk about the G1 Supercard at Madison Square Garden in New York City.
The Kingdom (Matt Taven, Vinny Marsegalia, TK O'Ryan) are seen leaving the arena.
Next week: Coast to Coast (Shaheem Ali and LSG) vs. The Briscoes (Jay and Mark Briscoe) for the ROH World Tag Team Championships! Jeff Cobb vs. Punishment Martinez for the ROH World Television Championship! Chris Sabin vs. "The Villain" Marty Scurll!
The Young Bucks (Matt and Nick Jackson) beat The Addiction ("Almighty" Christopher Daniels and "The Heavy Metal Rebel" Frankie Kazarian), Best Friends (Trent Barretta and Chuckie T) and Los Ingobernables de Japon (EVIL and SANADA) in a Four Corners Survival Match.

Honor Roll - Ring of Honor recap for December 16, 2017
The Addiction ("The Almighty" Christopher Daniels and "The Heavy Metal Rebel" Frankie Kazarian) beat Coast To Coast (Shaheem Ali and LSG). After the match, LSG says the same thing happens over and over. They have been in ROH for a year, but they have accomplished nothing and failed at every opportunity. They have not won one match that matters, and when he asks what they have to do, Shaheem Ali takes the microphone and says they have to win their match, or else they shouldn't be doing this. He then tells LSG "One more match...do or die."
Shane Taylor beats Eli Isom by referee stoppage after he knocks Isom out with a right hand to Isom's face.
The Young Bucks (Matt and Nick Jackson) will be facing Rocky Romero and Best Friends (Trent Baretta and Chuckie T) tonight. They then say that they are bringing their best friend, then "The Villain" Marty Scurll shows up. The Bucks tell Scurll it's not him, and Scurll walks away. They then bring out "The Clearner" Kenny Omega out from behind them.
It's time for Coleman's Pulpit. This week's guest is Brandi Rhodes. Brandi talks about her role in WAGS Atlanta, debuting January 3rd. When asked about her career, Brandi does not think that beng married to "The American Nightmare" Cody Rhodes gives her an edge. She also takes about being a figure skater for 17 years before becoming a professional wrestler. Coleman proposes bringing Brandi Rhodes back when she gets her first ROH win, and Brandi proposes signing an autograph after WAGS Atlanta finishes its first season.
Bullet Club (Matt Jackson, Nick Jackson, "The Cleaner" Kenny Omega) beat Rocky Romero and Best Friends (Trant Baretta and Chuckie T) with the Cease and Desist on Rocky Romero.

Honor Roll - Ring of Honor recap for November 11, 2017
Punishment Martinez beats Josh "The Goods" Woods to move on to the Four Corners Elimination Match for the ROH World Television Championship at Final Battle.
Mark Briscoe says people are calling him an idiot for competing tonight despite being injured, but he has earned his title shot and he will win the ROH World Television Championship. Jay Briscoe says he knows how he feels about this, but he will be in his corner tonight. Mark is okay with this.
Jay Lethal shows up. He says he is here to get something off his chest, and things have not been going great for him lately. It seems that every time he tries to get focused and back on the road to becoming ROH World Championship, someone or something comes along and sidetracks him, which frustrates him as he is always asked what is next for him. He says he is the greatest in the world and has done some things that others in the locker room have dreamed about. All that is next for him is becoming a two-time ROH World Champion. As much as it pains him to admit, the current ROH World Champion is "The American Nightmare" Cody Rhodes. He says Cody has not been here that long and not may have defeated him, but on the top of that list is his name. Suddenly, the lights go off, then "The Villain" Marty Scurll shows up. He says he is not here to fight, bicker or cause a spot of bother, as he likes Jay Lethal and thinks he is all right. He could not help but overhear him talking about goals, and talks about his goals for when he came to Ring of Honor. He wanted the best competition the company had to offer, and he wanted to wrestle all the best wrestlers in the world. Not surprisingly, Jay Lethal is one of them, but the Jay Lethal he wanted to face is not the one who stands in front of him who wants to shake hands, but the one who was not afraid to bend the rules, whether it be a handful of tights, put feet on the ropes, or cut corners where he had to. He wants a vicious, ruthless Jay Lethal that can be described as villainous. Jay Lethal says that he and Scurll are nothing alike, as he is the greatest in the world, and the only difference between them is that he did it because he wanted to and Scurll does it because he has to. Scurll questions if he does not have to do these things, and says the Lethal he is looking for is the same one who was dual champion. He asks if he does not want to be that guy anymore, then he might as well put the clown costume with the shtick back on (a reference to his old "Black Machismo" gimmick from TNA/Impact Wrestling), because it was at least entertaining. Lethal approaches him, but Scurll stops him and says that the fans who chanted for him because he was a badass are now chanting for him and wearing "Villain Club" T-shirts. He says that at the end of the day, money talks, and at Final Battle, he will face Lethal as his hand-picked opponent. Lethal tells him he accepts his challenge, and says that Scurll seems to know the "old" him well. Since Scurll is a smart man who does his studying, he created this "Villain," and tells him to be careful what he wished for, as he will get the badass he asked for and even see some new tricks.
"The American Nightmare" Cody Rhodes says "Hangman" Adam Page does not care about Dalton Castle's moment; all he cares about is protecting the fraternity of Bullet Club. Page says The Boys are gone forever, and that Dalton Castle will not kiss Cody's rring as he will not make it to Final Battle.
Kenny King retains the ROH World Television Championship against Mark Briscoe before the match can even start after Jay Briscoe tosses in the towel. After the match, Punishment Martinez shows up from out of the crowd and attacks Kenny King. Shane Taylor shows up, then Martinez and Taylor brawl in the ring. Kenny King tries to get back at Martinez only to be pulled off by Taylor, then "The Last Real Man" Silas Young and Cheeseburger get in the ring. This starts a five-man brawl which ends after Kenny King hits everyone else with a tope con hiro to the outside.
It's time for Coleman's Pulpit. This week's guest is Shane Taylor. Taylor says he has always been violent, and he is taking opportunities instead of waiting for them. As for whether or not he is a hired hitman, he asks Colleman what it looks like, and says he is okay with doing other people's dirty work for a price. He also asks "What's honorable?," then says he could either pander to the fans and wait for someone to throw him a bone, but he decided to take things into his own hands. As for what makes him tick, he has a family to take care of and a three-year-old daughter whom he wants to have a better than he had that is free of constant violence, and he will do anything he has to do to whoever he has to do it to in order to provide that better life.
The Motor City Machine Guns (Chris Sabin and Alex Shelley) guest on commentary for the next match.
Best Friends (Trent Barrett and Chuckie T) beat The Addiction ("The Almighty" Christopher Daniels and "The Heavy Metal Rebel" Frankie Kazarian). The Kingdom (Matt Taven, Vinny Marseglia, TK O'Ryan) are seen watching the match on the stage. Later on in the match, Daniels tries to introduce a chair into the match, but War Machine (Hanson and Raymond Rowe) show up and take it away from him. This distracts Daniels and allows Chuckie T to get the win. After the match, Chuckie T

Honor Roll - Ring of Honor recap for October 28, 2017
"The Heavy Metal Rebel" Frankie Kazarian says that Jay Lethal has a case of "boo-boo face" after he cost him a shot at the ROH World Championship, and now he has earned a victory at the Honor Rumble while Lethal has earned a thrashing. "The Almighty" Christopher Daniels says that he and Kazarian are going to bullshit all over everything people love about wrestling, and that they are going to do the same to whatever Lethal wants to do, too.
"The American Nightmare" Cody Rhodes guests on commentary for the next match.
The Kingdom (Matt Taven, Vinny Marseglia, TK O'Ryan) show up with Taven and Marseglia carrying signs reading "Conspiracy!" before the next match. When Jonathan Gresham shows up, he rips one of the signs out of their hands and throws it out of the ring.
Jonathan Gresham beats TK O'Ryan by disqualification. During the match, The Motor City Machine Guns (Chris Sabin and Alex Shelley) show up to even the odds, but they are ejected, as are Matt Taven and Vinny Marseglia. After this, O'Ryan shoves the referee, but the referee shoves back and O'Ryan shortly falls victim to an ankle lock submission. Marseglia drags the referee out of the ring during a bridge pin, and this leads to The Kingdom (Taven, O'Ryan, Marseglia) rushing into the ring to stomp Gresham. Ending the match, Sabin and Shelley run back in to clear the ring out.
"The American Nightmare" Cody Rhodes announces that now that he is a company man, he will right some of the wrongs in Ring of Honor, one of which is an upstart who looked for an opportunity a few weeks ago. He feels like defending the ROH World Championship, and says he will do just that against the upstart: Scorpio Sky. Sky bends down and kisses Cody's ring, then starts the match with a schoolboy pin for a near-fall.
"The American Nightmare" Cody Rhodes retains the ROH World Championship against Scorpio Sky with the American Nightmare.
It's time for Coleman's Pulpit with Caprice Coleman. Tonight's special guest is Kenny King. King says it feels good to bring the TV title back to America, and says he is a fighting champion and will defend the title anywhere, anytime. King says he believes in himself, and that Ring of Honor simply gave him the opportunity and he turned it into championship gold. Caprice says that Ring of Honor has been sleeping on King, and that he is just now seeing his full potential.
Before the next match, "The Heavy Metal Rebel" Frankie Kazarian says that he and "The Almighty" Christopher Daniels despise all the fans in the building. The show cuts to a commercial break as he speaks.
After the break, "The Almighty" Christopher Daniels is seen talking on the top rope. It does not take long for KUSHIDA and Jay Lethal to show up.
KUSHIDA and Jay Lethal beat The Addiction ("The Almighty" Christopher Daniels and "The Heavy Metal Rebel" Frankie Kazarian) with a Hoverboard Lock to Daniels.

Honor Roll - Ring of Honor recap for March 25, 2017
The Addiction ("The Almighty" Christopher Daniels and "The Heavy Metal Rebel" Frankie Kazarian) show up. Chistopher Daniels takes the cover off a table to reveal a bottle of appletini drink and a wine glass, which he has a sip of to celebrate his recent ROH World Championship win. At the 15th Anniversary Show, he says Adam Cole was younger, faster and more technically sound than he was, but he was definitely not stronger as Kazarian created a plan that bamboozled Bullet Club and gave him his first ROH World Championship, which he says is sweeter than his drink of choice. Kazarian announces that he earned a shot at the Television title at the 15th Anniverary Show, and tells "The Villain" Marty Scurll he's coming for his title. Kazarian says that he and Daniels will always be brothers, and will always be the addiction you can't kick. Suddenly, Dalton Castle shows up. He asks about the appletini, saying "Is that a drink?" Daniel tells him "It's not a drink, it's an experience" and tells him to take it slow. An astounded Dalton Castle asks what it is, and when told it's an appletini, Castle says it is wonderful. When Kazarian looks for another glass, The Boys show up and bring him one...a big one. After the rest of the appletini is poured, they have a toast, and Castle congratulates Daniels for winning the ROH World title, saying his title victory was well-deserved. Castle doesn't envy him, however, as he has to wrestle him and he doesn't want to wish that upon anybody. Suddenly, Adam Cole shows up with The Young Bucks (Matt and Nick Jackson), and says Daniels and Kazarian screwed him out of the ROH World Championship and that they will pay for what they have done. As for Dalton Castle, the idea of ROH World Champion compared to him is laughable, and at Supercard of Honor, it will not be Daniels vs. Castle, as the only man who deserves a shot at the World title is himself. Kazarian can't comprehend why Cole would want to get in the ring with Daniels again as "Daniels kicked Adam Cole in his Adam hole." Kazarian then realizes there's three of Bullet Club and three of them, and challenges Cole and the Bucks to a six-man tag match tonight. Cole accepts.
"The Villain" Marty Scurll calls himself the most dominating ROH World Television Champion in ROH history, and tells the roster to come and have a go if they think they're hard enough. All of a sudden, after the end of the promo shoot, Kenny King shows up and challenges him to a match for the ROH World Championship against him and The Rebellion (King, Rhett Titus, Caprice Coleman). Scurll accepts.
The Hardys ("Broken" Matt Hardy and Jeff Hardy) retain the ROH World Tag Team Championships against The Briscoes (Jay and Mark Briscoe). After the match, The Young Bucks (Matt and Nick Jackson) state that they will bring the house down again at Supercard of Honor, and challenges The Hardys for both the ROH World Tag Team Championships and the Superkick Party championships in the match The Hardys made famous: a ladder match.
Dalton Castle and The Addiction The Addiction ("The Almighty" Christopher Daniels and "The Heavy Metal Rebel" Frankie Kazarian) beat Bullet Club (Adam Cole, Matt Jackson, Nick Jackson).

Honor Roll - Ring of Honor recap for February 25, 2017
Special thanks to prowrestling.net for helping me get caught up.
Ian Riccaboni is now on commentary following the departure of Kevin Kelly and Steve Corino, and Bobby Fish guests on commentary this week.
"The Almighty" Christopher Daniels is in the ring. He talks about how he was on the first ever ROH show, and how his destiny is to be ROH World Champion. Suddenly, Adam Cole shows up. He ridicules Daniels for being over 40 years old and says he will be World Champion forever, then notices that Daniels is ready to fight and tells him that he's in luck. If it's a fight with Bullet Club Daniels wants, it's a fight with Bullet Club he'll get. Daniels is then attacked from behind by Hangman Page, and as Cole is about to hit Daniels with the World title, "The Heavy Metal Rebel" Frankie Kazarian makes the save. Kazarian then grabs the microphone and asks for a tag team match before declaring that Daniels will be the next champion.
Adam Cole and Hangman Page beat The Addiction ("The Almighty" Christopher Daniels and "The Heavy Metal Rebel" Frankie Kazarian) after Page puts his legs up to counter the Best Moonsault Ever and rolls him up.
John Skyler beats Sean Carr to advance to the quarterfinals of the 2017 Top Prospect Tournament.
The Kingdom (Matt Taven, TK O'Ryan, Vinny Marseglia) say that no peasants have ever toppled a kingdom, in reference to The Rebellion (Kenny King, Rhett Titus, Caprice Coleman). Marseglia says that he farted in "The Big Dog" Rhett Titus' dog food and the only thing he can do is breathe in the greatness. It is then announced that the winners of this match will take on Dalton Castle and The Boys at the next pay-per-view.
The Tempura Boyz (Sho and Yo) are about to have a match with The Motor City Machine Guns (Chris Sabin and Alex Shelley) when the Machine Guns fail to come out. Riccaboni asks for a camera to show what's going on backstage, but nothing is show, and it is implied that something has happened to The Motor City Machine Guns before the show cuts to a commercial break.
"The Villain" Marty Scurll retains the ROH World Television Championship against Donovan Dijak with the crossface chickenwing. After the match, Lio Rush, who is seen watching the match from the stage, gets in the ring and stares down with Scurll. Scurll turns away, then hits him with the Television title, and is about to put him in the crossface chickenwing when The Rebellion (Kenny King, Rhett Titus, Caprice Coleman) runs in. Scurll flees, then The Motor City Machine Guns (Chris Sabin and Alex Shelley) show up along with other people in the locker room to close out the show.

Honor Roll - Ring of Honor recap for November 26, 2016
Alex Shelley guests on commentary for the next match.
Lio Rush beats Jonathan Gresham. Both men shake hands after the match, then The Motor City Machine Guns (Chris Sabin and Alex Shelley) get in the ring and says that both men in the match hold nothing back and give everything that they have. Shelley says that for him, the best part of wrestling in ROH is not just representing the company, but thinking the same way that everyone in the crowd thinks as a match like that made him a fan of pro wrestling. Sabin says that they have been watching them for the last few months, and agrees that both men are the future of ROH. He shakes their hands, and says that they show honor and respect, the characteristics that the foundation of Ring of Honor was built upon.
Kyle O'Reilly looks back on Future Shock (Adam Cole and O'Reilly). He says that Adam Cole exudes confidence, but his insecurity can be seen deep in his eyes, and through spite he ruins every single chance he has at the ROH World Championship. He says that Cole should have let it die, but he poked the dragon and started a war that he could not finish. O'Reilly says that Cole created "The Violent Artist," and at Final Battle, the river will overflow its banks and consume Cole, and Cole will drown as he takes the ROH World Championship. O'Reilly says that he made him famous and was the best thing to ever happen to Adam Cole, but he will soon become the worst.
The Briscoes (Jay and Mark Briscoe) beat The Addiction ("The Almighty" Christopher Daniels and "The Heavy Metal Rebel" Frankie Kazarian).
Adam Cole looks back on Future Shock (Cole and Kyle O'Reilly), then looks back at the past year. He has done what he has set out to do: win the ROH World Championship and keep Kyle O'Reilly from winning it. He says that O'Reilly is a step behind him, and that being the best can be miserable. He takes nothing away from O'Reilly's talent, but he says that O'Reilly will never be him. He says that we wants to move forward, and that he shouldn't have to say that he is better than him at this point. He tells O'Reilly that Final Battle is his last chance to either choke or win the big one.

Honor Roll - Ring of Honor recap for July 9, 2016
Donovan Dijak beats Jason Kincaid.
ACH says that the crowd is his track on repeat, and that everything he's been through are the lyrics. The only way to complete the song is to win the World Television Championship, and he'll have to get through Mark Briscoe to become #1 contender.
Before the next match, The Addiction ("The Almighty" Christopher Daniels and "The Heavy Metal Rebel" Frankie Kazarian) promise that they will retain the ROH World Tag Team Championships.
Mark Briscoe tells ACH that he's a good athlete, but there's a difference between natural athletics and destiny. He's no stranger to gold now that he's one-half of the IWGP Heavyweight Tag Team Champions, and now he wants some singles gold in ROH.
The Addiction ("The Almighty" Christopher Daniels and "The Heavy Metal Rebel" Frankie Kazarian) retain the ROH World Tag Team Championships against "The Last Real Man" Silas Young and The Beer City Bruiser.
Kyle O'Reilly respects Jay Lethal for taking him seriously as a competitor and never ducking him, and once again they square off for the World title. This time, they'll both find out who the best in the world really is.
Bobby Fish is in the ring for a special live version of The Fish Tank. Fish brags about being ROH World Television Champion, but today isn't all about him. It's about his two special guests who are fighting each other for a shot at this title: ACH and Mark Briscoe. ACH shows up first, followed by Briscoe. Briscoe tries to figure out what "ACH" means, and comes up with wild guesses such as "A Child Hero," "Acrobatic Cat-Like Horseman" and "Ass Cheeks Hughes." ACH cuts in and says that the main difference between him and Briscoe is that Briscoe has a legacy and that he does not, and he has to get through both Briscoe and Fish to start his before telling him "ACH" stands for "Annihilating Chickens' Hopes." Both men are ready to fish, and Fish cuts The Fish Tank short so that he doesn't get roughed up.
Mark Briscoe beats ACH to become #1 contender for the ROH World Television Championship. Both men show respect after the match, then Mark Briscoe and Bobby Fish stare down to end the show.
Next week: Roderick Strong vs. Dalton Castle! Kyle O'Reilly vs. Jay Lethal for the ROH World Championship!

Honor Roll - Ring of Honor recap for April 2, 2016
Thanks to Voices of Wrestling for the recap, because I was totally unable to watch it this week due to WrestleMania being seven hours long and burning me out.
Before the opening match, Jay Lethal says that Donovan Dijak has gotten his attention after Dijak broke Truth Martini's neck. Lethal feels Dijak doesn’t deserve a shot at the world title, and that Dijak shouldn’t even be in Ring of Honor. He says it was Truth's idea to bring Dijak into The House of Truth after Dijak won the 2015 Top Prospect Tournament. Lethal says that he’s now going to do things his way, and that he’s coming for Dijak.
reDRagon (Bobby Fish and Kyle O'Reilly) beat "The Rainmaker" Kazuchika Okada and Gedo.
The Briscoes (Jay and Mark Briscoe) talk about how War Machine (Hanson and Rowe) has never beaten them, and how they can’t claim to be the world's best tag team until they do. The Briscoes haven’t held the tag titles in more than three years, and that War Machine aren’t the only ones with something to prove.
Adam Cole beats KUSHIDA.
Dalton Castle says that whenever he sees someone, he thinks about how to fight them. With "The Last Real Man" Silas Young, however, it's more of a matter of what to fight him with. He considers bringing a colander so he can fill Young's pants up with bring shrimp and throwing him in a tank with a narwhal. Next week...he's getting weird.
The Motor City Machine Guns (Chris Sabin and Alex Shelley) beat The Addiction ("The Almighty" Christopher Daniels and "The Heavy Metal Rebel" Frankie Kazarian). After the match, The Addiction attack the Machine Guns until KUSHIDA and "Reborn" Matt Sydal go after The Addiction. The Young Bucks (Matt and Nick Jackson) then show up and superkick KUSHIDA and Sydal. The Machine Guns then brawl with the Bucks, and it turns into an all-out wars where KUSHIDA, Sydal and the Machine Guns come out on top.

Before the second match, Truth Martini introduces Chris La Russo, who just so happens to be also be a lawyer, much to Martini's delight. Unfortunately for him, he gets the thumbs down from Truth Martini as Martini and Daddiego leave him high and dry. Before the fifth match, The Addiction attack The Young Bucks from behind, and after the match, they attack The Young Bucks again in revenge of being beaten fairly quickly, and land Celebrity Rehab on one of the Bucks. When Roppongi Vice show up for the next match, they fight with The Addiction first and toss them out of the ring. Officials keep The Addiction from re-entering the ring.
In anticipation of War of the Worlds happening next week, we look back at the match between the team of "The Rainmaker" Kazuchika Okada and Shinsuke Nakamura and The Briscoes (Jay and Mark Briscoe) from last year.

Mark Briscoe beats Adam Page when Page is distracted by BJ Whitmer, who thinks Mr. Wrestling III is really Steve Corino. After the match, Whitmer, still believing Mr. Wrestling III is Corino, tells him to be a man for once in his life in front of Corino's son Colby. Mr. Wrestling III gets in the ring, and Whitmer demands he take off his mask and reveal he is Corino. Mr. Wrestling III insists he is not Steve Corino, and says he knows Corino, too. He says that Corino knows someone who can take him down, and tells Whitmer, Page and Colby Corino to get out of here while they still can.
"The Last Real Man" Silas Young shows up and grabs the microphone. He describes what happened to him at Final Battle as "a disappointment" after all he did to make Dalton Castle's Boys into men. He wants them back, and gives The Boys an ultimatum: be boys or be men, and do the right thing or else you'll be sorry.
Before the next match can start, The Young Bucks (Matt and Nick Jackson) show up and attack reDRagon (Bobby Fish and Kyle O'Reilly) before super kicking everyone in the ring, including ring announcer Bobby Cruise.

"The Last Real Man" Silas Young tries his best to teach The Boys to change a tire and drive a stickshift.
War Machine (Hanson and Rowe) beat "The Last Real Man" Silas Young and The Beer City Bruiser. Young and the Bruiser take their anger out on The Boys after the match.
Steve Corino shows up. Nigel McGuinness talks to Corino, and says he cannot reinstate him as a color commentator due to breaking the zero-tolerance policy set forth when he attacked BJ Whitmer the first time. He understands what Corino did, but cannot condone it. This leaves McGuinness only one option: to reinstate him as a wrestler. BJ Whitmer versus Steve Corino is official for Final Battle. Corino said that the punch to the face of BJ Whitmer with a roll of quarters brought back the rush of being a pro wrestler again, and it felt great. He never guessed that after 21 years, he would still be in the ring and cheered, especially after 79 tours of Japan tore him up, but he took it without complain. Recently, he found out he had a pain in his neck, and that he needs surgery to fuse three vertebrae in his neck or else he can't wrestle again. He says that if this is goodbye, he thanks Ring of Honor for keeping him around and making memories when they didn't. He thanks a number of people involved in the company from in-ring to backstage. When the crowd chants "Thank you, Steve," he says "No...thank you." After saying that he is still an evil man and takes a bow, he meets with everyone on commentary one last time before heading to back.
"Unbreakable" Michael Elgin quickly beats Kevin Lee Davidson. After the match, Elgin talks about his recent time in New Japan, and says it reminds him of why he's here: the ROH World Championship. He has every intention of taking the title away from Jay Lethal, and says that the gold is coming back to him when they meet in the ring.

Honor Roll - Ring of Honor recap for October 17, 2015
Jay Briscoe thinks Adam Page must have been hanging around BJ Whitmer for too long and thinks he doesn't know what he's gotten himself into...but it's all good. In the end, Jay thinks he'll be another bump on the way.
The All Night Express (Kenny King and Rhett Titus) beat The Addiction ("The Almighty" Christopher Daniels and Frankie Kazarian) after someone in a red mask shows up and distracts The Addiction. It is suspected that this mystery man is not Chris Sabin, who is banned from ringside for this match, and is the same one who interfered last night in the tag team title match.
The Kingdom (Maria Kanellis, Adam Cole, Michael Bennett, Matt Taven) show up. Michael Bennett makes a promo that is exactly similar to CM Punk's "I am a snake" promo from several years back, referring to Adam Cole turning on Kyle O'Reilly. Maria Kanellis then introduces herself, saying that while she's in a male-dominated business, she doesn't have to play by a man's rules. Matt Taven says that a year ago, they all sat down and pictured this moment, and that their success is defined by the gold that they have. As for Adam Cole, he is heading towards becoming ROH World Champion once again, and they will soon have all the gold. Cole then says he turned on Kyle O'Reilly because he considers himself the greater ROH World Champion, and says O'Reilly should not be let anywhere near it. He is sickened with Nigel McGuinness for putting O'Reilly at the top of the list for World title contenders along with AJ Styles and Michael Elgin, and says he is the only legitimate contender. Adam Cole promises that The Kingdom will one day have all the gold. All of a sudden, reDRagon (Kyle O'Reilly and Bobby Fish) show up, being held back by officials and security so that they can't enter the ring. Fish tells Cole he has no idea what he's really done, and that it is a matter of time before he and O'Reilly take the tag titles back. First things first: they want to take out The Kingdom despite it being three-on-two...and Michael Elgin shows up to become a one-man army. The Kingdom escape, and Elgin grabs the mike and says that reDRgon have back-up in the form of Big Mike as they do.

He hugs Kevin Kelly, then walks to the back.

Honor Roll - Ring of Honor recap for April 25, 2015
Thanks to Kianna Fury for some stuff.
The Addiction (Christopher Daniels and Kazarian) plan to show what they're made of when they take on reDRagon (Bobby Fish and Kyle O'Reilly) tonight for the ROH World Tag Team Championships.
B.J. Whitmer beats Moose, Caprice Coleman and Will Ferrara in a Four Corners Survival Match after tagging Moose out and stealing the victory from him. Moose and Whitmer stare down after the match, and Whitmer mocks him, threatening to fight him.
After the break, Adam Page mocks ACH, saying he is nothing more than an empty shirt that has no attitude, charisma or heart and that he wants to erase those letters from ROH. He takes an ACH shirt from a chair in the middle of the ring and is about to burn it with a lighter when ACH shows up. When ACH gets int he ring, B.J. Whitmer and Adam Page flee, and ACH calls Page out for joining The Decade with Whitmer after saying that he and Page can't slow him down. Page gets in the ring and both Page and ACH go at it. This starts a match.
Adam Page beats ACH after the distraction from B.J. Whitmer. Page and Whitmer attack ACH after the match until Matt Sydal makes the save.
Michael Elgin says that having a tag team partner does npt help him become ROH World Champion. He does not trust many people, but he has friends in high places. Those friends are the Killer Elite Squad - Lance Archer and Davey Boy Smith Jr. - and says that unlike War Machine (Hanson and Raymond Rowe), they know war.
The Addiction (Christopher Daniels and Frankie Kazarian) beat reDRagon (Kyle O'Reilly and Bobby Fish) with the help of a member of the Knights of the Rising Dawn to win the ROH World Tag Team Championships!
