Honor Roll - Ring of Honor recap for January 19, 2019

Eli Isom beats Facade to advance in the mini-tournament to decide a #1 contender for the ROH World Television Championship. Both men show respect after the match.

We hear from Kelly Klein, who says that she beat three opponents to become ROH Women of Honor Champion, and that she is so confident that she will keep the title that she will not only defend the title against anyone anywhere, but that every match against her will be for the title.

We hear from Jay Lethal, who says that there are men all over the world who want the ROH World Championship, and that he hasn't forgotten what Matt Taven has done as of late. He says that Taven will eventually get what is coming to him.

It is announced that next week, The Kingdom (Matt Taven, TK O'Ryan, Vinny Marseglia) will be defending the ROH World Six-Man Tag Team Championships against Villain Enterprises ("The Villain" Marty Scurll, Brody King, PCO).

Rush beats TK O'Ryan in his ROH debut. After the match, Vinny Marseglia shows up, but it is just a distraction that allows Matt Taven to hit Rush in the back with his facsimile ROH World Championship. After this, Taven, O'Ryan and Marseglia grab steel chairs, place a steel chair on top of Rush's head and smacks it into Rush's skull with three steel chairs.

Rhett Titus replaces Caprice Coleman on commentary for the next match.

Before the next match, The Beer City Bruiser says that he has realized that "The Last Real Man" Silas Young sucks for using him as a means to get to the top and saying that their friendship means nothing. He also tells Silas that instead of a wrestling match, they must have a fight, and asks referee Todd Sinclair to make the match no-disqualification.

"The Last Real Man" Silas Young beats The Beer City Bruiser in a no-disqualification match to advance in the mini-tournament to decide a #1 contender for the ROH World Television Championship.

Honor Roll - Ring of Honor recap for May 5, 2018

Caprice Coleman guests on commentary this week.

Coast To Coast (Shaheem Ali and LSG) beat The Beer City Bruiser and Brian Milonis.

We hear from Jay Lethal, who says that without ROH gold around his waist, he is lost. He has went to management, and has been told to rack up a few more wins if he wants championship gold. He has decided to do one better and beat the people who have beaten him, and he will wrestle as many matches as he has to in order to stand on top with gold around his waist. He may be lost right now, but that will soon change.

The Young Bucks (Matt and Nick Jason) want to go at it for the ROH World Tag Team Championships with The Briscoes (Jay and Mark Briscoe) one more time, since they put on a show and because they want to invite The Briscoes to a superkick party. That match will happen next week.

Before the next match, Rhett Titus says that Will Ferrara will tear Jonathan Gresham into calamari. He then guests on commentary for the next match.

Jonathan Gresham beats Will Ferrara, then Ferrara and Rhett Titus attack Gresham after the match until The Motor City Machine Guns (Chris Sabin and Alex Shelley) make the save.

We hear from Cody and Marty Scurll. Cody says that the #1 contender will face Dalton Castle at Best In The World on June 29th, and Scurll says it is him and that he will beat Dalton Castle for the ROH World Championsip. Cody takes Scurll aside and tells him that Bullet Club is fine and that he had his shot, and to go with him on this. Nevertheless, Scurll tells Castle he will beat him for the ROH World Championship again.

We hear from SoCal Uncensored ("Almighty" Christopher Daniels, "The Heavy Metal Rebel" Frankie Kazarian, Scorpio Sky), who say that The Kingdom (Matt Taven, Vinny Marseglia, TK O'Ryan) proved they are as dumb as they look when they stole the six-man tag titles, pissed off Bullet Club and infuriated them. Scorptio Sky says they should pay attention to tonight's main event, as there is nothing stopping them from taking back what is theirs. Daniel says the difference between them and The Kingdom is that they do not play by the rules and that they will end The Kingdom any way they see fit.

Before the next match, Shane Taylor says that for eight years, he ran the streets of Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania the same way he rules ROH right now, and that is being paid to beat people down and knock them out. No matter how much money he makes, however, there is only so much money to go around, and that leads to guys like Ryan Nova who do not even have a spot on the roster, as the money they make could just as easily be in his pocket, and he might as well knock people out until he is the only one left.

Shane Taylor quickly beats Ryan Nova by referee stoppage after he knocks Ryan Nova out. After the match, Shane Taylor stays at ringside and takes a payment from The Kingdom (Matt Taven, Vinny Marseglia, TK O'Ryan).

The Kingdom (Matt Taven, Vinny Marseglia, TK O'Ryan) beat Dalton Castle and The Boys. During the match, "Almighty" Christopher Daniels tries to take the ROH World Six-Man Tag Team Championships away from Shane Taylor, but Shane Taylor does not let him. In the midst of this, which distracts the referee, The Boys switch positions. Later in the match, Matt Taven hits Dalton Castle from behind with a championship belt, and is able to hit the Climax on one of The Boys to lead The Kingdom to a win. After the match, The Kingdom continue to attack Dalton Castle and The Boys, and put a steel chair around Castle's right wrist before Taven stomps on it from the top rope in an attempt to injure Castle.

Honor Roll - Ring of Honor recap for March 10, 2018

Shane Taylor and Flip Gordon are the last two survivors of a battle royal after Shane Taylor turns on Caprice Coleman. Both men will face off later tonight in a match that will determine the #1 contender to the ROH World Television Championship.

We hear from The Kingdom (Matt Taven, Vinny Marseglia, TK O'Ryan). Taven asks who many times he has to tell the truth about the conspiracy about them, as they are not getting what they deserve while Bullet Club is dying, as ROH is "putting all their eggs in the Bullet Club basket." Suddenly, "The Heavy Metal Rebel" Frankie Kazarian and "Almighty" Christopher Daniels show up and say ROH has conspired against them as well. Marseglia and O'Ryan want none of this, but Taven hears them out. Daniels tells Taven this is an opportunity to create their own numbers game to take out Bullet Club and change the pecking order in ROH.

We hear from The Kingdom (Matt Taven, Vinny Marseglia, TK O'Ryan). O'Ryan says he does not trust SoCal Uncensored, but Taven tells him every army needs its pawns, and that every civil war has torn a nation - or a club - apart. Marseglia tells every member of Bullet Club to bring an umbrella, as it will be raining blood next week.

Deonna Purrazzo guests on commentary for the next match.

We hear from "The American Nightmare" Cody Rhodes, who says that Bullet Club is doing just fine.

Honor Roll - Ring of Honor recap for February 10, 2018

Dalton Castle says he is always ready, always limber and never surprised. After noticing The Boys are behind him, he says not much surprises him, and as soon as he won the ROH World Championship, he knew he was the biggest target in ROH. Therefore, when he was attacked from behind by Punishment Martinez, he was not surprised, as he would have done the same thing if he had to him. He tells Punishment Martinez he is not getting in the ring with the same man he has known in the past, and that he will get in the ring with a champion who is willing to protect what he has earned and has no other plan than to come out swinging and do whatever he can to leave Nashville, Tennessee as ROH World Champion.

The Beer City Brusier and Brian Milonas vs. Coast To Coast (Shaheem Ali and LSG) comes to an end after Kenny King runs to the ring and brawls with "The Last Real Man" Silas Young, taking their brawl to the ring in the process. This leads to the match becoming a six-man tag match after the commercial break.

Coast To Coast (Shaheem Ali and LSG) and Kenny King beat "The Last Real Man" Silas Young, The Beer City Bruiser and Brian Milonis.

The Dawgs (Rhett Titus and Will Ferrara) are not happy with Coast To Coast's (Shaheem Ali and LSG) recent win, and Rhett Titus says it is time to send Coast To Coast packing.

We hear from Madison Rayne and "The Exotic Goddess" Mandy Leon prior to their first round match in the Women of Honor Tournament.

Deonna Purrazzo guests on commentary for the next match.

"The Exotic Goddess" Mandy Leon beats Madison Rayne to advance to the quarterfinals of the Women of Honor Tournament. Both women show respect after the match.



After the show went off the air last week, "The American Nightmare" Cody Rhodes wants to know where The Young Bucks (Matt and Nick Jackson) were as he was getting beaten up. The Young Bucks tell him that they had just gotten into the building. Cody reminds them that everyone wants Bullet Club to break up, and tells them that he expects better from him. "The Villain" Marty Scurll then shows up with a fan sign, but The Young Bucks aren't in the mood.

We hear from The Briscoes (Jay and Mark Briscoe). Jay says that they don't care about The Motor City Machine Guns' (Chris Sabin and Alex Shelley) well being or if the fans cheer for them; all they care about is making statements. Mark says they plan to make one statement in particular: that they are the baddest tag tag team in the locker room, and they don't care if The Motor City Machine Guns or any of their opponents get hurt, get injured or even live or die. Jay says it's personal not just against the Machine Guns, but everyone else in the locker room, and they are taking the ROH World Tag Team Championships back.

"The Villain" Marty Scurll guests on commentary for the next match.

Dalton Castle retains the ROH World Championship against Punishment Martinez after reversing the Psycho Driver into an inside cradle. After the match, Dalton Castle slams both of The Boys into the ring apron.

Honor Roll - Ring of Honor recap for December 2, 2017

"The Villain" Marty Scurll beats The Beer City Bruiser. During the match, Jay Lethal watches the match from the stage. Later on in the match, The Bruiser accidentally squashes referee Todd Sinclair into the corner, and as Sinclair is down, Scurll grabs his umbrella, stares down Lethal as he heads towards the ring to stop him from getting in the ring, then hits The Bruiser with the umbrella as Sinclair comes to.

We hear from Dalton Castle, who says his match with "The American Nightmare" Cody Rhodes should not be a big deal. He talks about his childhood where he got into wrestling. He says nobody predicted his road through ROH and where he would be now, and even though he did not win the Top Prospect Tournament, he worked to get to where he is and that nobody gave him a free ride. He wishes this was a match about who is the best, but says Cody has made this about so much more. He says he had a shot at the ROH World Championship before, but he has learned from his mistakes from that match. He then talks about how Cody attacked him after the match, and at War of the Worlds UK, then put his boys in a box and shipped them out. He says that if Cody thinks he can make him weak by taking out his boys, then he has no idea who he is dealing with. At Final Battle, Cody will walk in as the ROH World Champion, but he will be the one to kick his ass.

Next week: Dalton Castle and "The American Nightmare" Cody Rhodes sign the contract for their match for the ROH World Championship at Final Battle.

We see footage of Jay and Mark Brisco looking for Bully Ray at the Team 3D Academy. Mark is behind the camera, and Jay is right behind him. Jay lays out two of the men in the ring, then Jay destroys some pictures in a nearby room. Jay then sees a poster listing all the injuries Bully Ray has suffered through his career, then Jay asks why Bully Ray let him and Mark take him out and what it will take to et him to come back for revenge. They then put one of the two men they laid out in the Dudley Death Drop.

It's time for Coleman's Pulpit. This week's guest is: himself. Caprice sits next to another Caprice, who says that some people have bad attitude and that he simply told Kenny King the truth. When asked if he has a personal vendetta against King and is jealous of his success, Caprice says he has nothing but respect for King and says he is TV champ for a reason, but that other people can have that opportunity. He eels he is prepared for his match for the TV title at Final Battle, as he believes the race is won not by the swift or the strong, but by the one who can endure until the end. He calls Kenny King a "ho," and says he will make him a priority and become the ROH World Television Championship.


In footage from Fort Lauderdale, Florida, The Motor City Machine Guns (Chris Sabin and Alex Shelley) retain the ROH World Tag Team Championships against The Kingdom (Vinny Marseglia and TK O'Ryan).

Flip Gordon beats "Hangman" Adam Page. After the match, Flip Gordon gets laid out by Matt Jackson, who pretends to be a referee. Backstage, "The American Nightmare" Cody Rhodes says that Flip Gordon is delusional, and that if he thinks he can take the World Six-Man titles away from Bullet Club, then he is as delusional as Dalton Castle, who thinks he can take the ROH World Championship from Cody. Cody kisses the ROH World Championship, and the show ends.

Honor Roll - Ring of Honor recap for October 7, 2017

"The Last Real Man" Silas Young and The Beer City Bruiser show up. Silas Young shows everyone his back to show them the back of a man who "talks the talks and walks that walk." At Death Before Dishonor, Jay Lethal beat him like a dog with a leather belt, but he could not keep him down, and he was the last man standing. He has proved he is better than Lethal, and worthy of the meaty opportunity. He then mentions the goal he and The Beer City Bruiser had of getting a third man to get the ROH World Six-Man Championships with. After months of looking, they could not find a single man who could parallel them in manliness. But at Death Before Dishonor, they found a man who was as manly as they are and as real as they come. They offered him the opportunity to join them in the road to the six-man titles, and that man is Minoro Suzuki. He then says The Young Bucks (Matt and Nick Jackson), and tells them to get in the ring and accept their challenge after they step back from their Internet shows and stop putting themselves over. The Young Bucks and "Hangman" Adam Page show up, and say that they were signing autographs until they heard Silas was talking trash about them, and they are pissed because he is costing them money. They then say they are the greatest trio in wrestling today, and they are collectively known as "The Hung Bucks." If Young, The Bruiser and Suzuki want to challenge them for the six-man titles, they can do it now...then say they're joking and say they only wrestle when it is the main event.

Kenny King retains the ROH World Television Championship against Josh "The Goods" Woods after countering a Triangle Hold into a pinfall. Both men show respect after the match, and Kenny King tells the fans that it was a great moment for him to win the Television title in front of his family and how he plans on being a fighting champion. All of a sudden, Shane Taylor shows up. Kenny King says there are no cheeseburgers in the ring, and that they have history. Suddenly, Chuckie T shows up, and Kenny King mentions he also has history with him. After that, Punishment Martinez shows up. Kenny King is telling them to come and get it if they want a shot, Mark Briscoe shows up, and Kenny King says they've been at war a couple of times. King then tells all four men that if they want the Television title, they will have to bend the knee.

We hear from "The Villain" Marty Scurll, who announces that next week, he personally invites the fans to witness the celebration of "The American Nightmare" Cody Rhodes signing the most lucrative deal in ROH history, and says Bullet Club might even cause a spot of bother.

Bullet Club (Matt Jackson, Nick Jackson, "Hangman" Adam Page) retains the ROH World Six-Man Tag Team Championships against "The Last Real Man" Silas Young, The Beer City Bruiser and Minoru Suzuki. After the match, The Beer City Bruiser berates Suzuki, blaming their loss on him. Suzuki answers by fighting both Silas and The Bruiser, and security has to come to the ring to restore order.

Jay Briscoe shows up. Before he can speak, Tommy Dreamer shows up in ROH for the first time in years. Dreamer says he is here to talk to Briscoe as well as "our wrestling family." He tells him of a time that he cut he had to help him cut off his cast so he could perform at Barely Legal back in 1997, because he broke his ankle so badly that he walks with a limp. In 1998, somebody busted a beer bottle on Bully Ray's ear, and he and Bully fought off four men before Bully Ray finished his drink and told Dreamer to take him to the hospital. Bully Ray is missing a part of his ear because of that incident. In 2002, at the first ever Raw Roulette, Chris Jericho drove him head-first into the canvas and knocked him out, and it concussed him so badly that he forgot his mother had passed away three months and he forgot about the worst part of his life. Dreamer had to tell him for the first time that his mother died, and he watched him cry until he instantly stopped and asked what happened. He says studying the brain is a really scary thing, and he feels partially responsible for all the steel chairs that have been smacked into Bully Ray's head. Dreamer goes on to say that he is not here to speak for Bully Ray or fight his battles, as there is life after professional wrestling. He is worried about Bully Ray, and tells Jay Briscoe he messed up and that he does not know what is going to happen. He thanks the fans for having him, then he leaves. Jay Brisco stays in the ring for a little while, then leaves.

Honor Roll - Ring of Honor recap for July 22, 2017

Before the next match, The Young Bucks say that there is no competition in ROH when it comes to the tag team titles, and that they booked themselves into a Dalton Castle and The Boys for the six-man tag team titles, now that The Briscoes (Jay and Mark Briscoe) and Bully Ray have lost said titles. "Hangman" Adam Page then brings out "The Villian" Marty Scurll.

"The Villain" Marty Scurll beats Josh "The Goods" Woods, Vinny Marseglia, Will Ferrara, El Terrible and "The Heavy Metal Rebel" Frankie Kazarian in a Six-Man Mayhem match, despite delivering no offense during the match and by picking the bones after Kazarian hits Marseglia with a cutter. During the match, Shane Taylor shows up and levels Josh "The Goods" Woods outside of the ring as he also attacks other competitors in the match.

"The Almighty" Christopher Daniels says he has prided himself on never letting one loss defines him. However, when he lost the ROH World Championship to Cody Rhodes, it let a fire inside of him. After being told to cool down for a week, he is back and he wants a rematch for the ROH World Championship in a two-out-of-three falls match. That match will happen in two weeks.

The Beer City Bruiser beats Brian Milonas. After the match, "The Last Real Man" Silas Young celebrates the Bruiser on his win, and talks about how he injured Jay Lethal 29 days ago at Best in the World. He says it will be a long time before Lethal shows his face on ROH television ever again.

KUSHIDA retains the ROH World Television Championship against Jay White. After the match, Kenny King shows up and congratulates KUSHIDA as KUSHIDA and Jay White shake hands. Kenny then raises King's hand in victory, then tells him that the Television title will soon be his.

Security tries to restore order, but both men take them down before they continue brawling. Daniels eventually comes out on top in the brawl, and ring crew, officials and referees have to keep both men apart as Cody Rhodes is taken backstage.

Jay Briscoe tells Josh "The Goods" Woods he has quite the credentials, and admires him calling him out. However, he can't tell if his balls are that big, or if he is just plain stupid. He tells Woods he is swimming with the sharks, and he runs the show around here.

Jay Briscoe beats Josh "The Goods" Woods.

We see a video package of the fallout between Will Ferrara and Cheeseburger. Ferrara says he cannot advance in his career with him. He says he is a workhorse while Cheeseburger is a charity case, and tells Cheeseburger to call it a career after teaming with Jushin "Thunder" Liger in Japan, as all that is left for him is a world of hurt courtesy of him.

Before the next match, The Young Bucks (Matt and Nick Jackson) show up and make it a Texas Tornado style three-way tag team match with the ROH World Tag Team Championships on the line.

The Kingdom (Matt Taven, TK O'Ryan, Vinny Marseglia) attack The Boys before the next match The beating stops when Dalton Castle shows up, and the match finally begins.

The Bucks announces this is a new era for Bullet Club, and that nobody saw this coming unless they watched Being The Elite on YouTube. They then introduce Bullet Club's newest member: "The Villain" Marty Scurll. Scurll says that Bullet Club shocked the world at War of the Worlds, and knows that the Bucks love to throw a superkick party. Tonight, they plan to do something a little bit different: inviting the audience to a tea party with Marty. He asks security to bring out the tea, the cups and the crumpets, but instead of getting all that, he and the Bucks get Adam Cole instead. He asks why anyone would want a tea party with Marty when everyone would rather have "Story Time with Adam Cole." He confronts the Bucks for kicking him out of Bullet Club, says he is the three-time World champion, ROH franchise player and best pro wrestler on the planet, and says that Bullet Club has now made an enemy of him as well as the biggest mistake of their lives.

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.

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.

Honor Roll - Ring of Honor recap for February 27, 2016

Couldn't watch this episode due to the Oscars, so I have two sites to thank for this one: Cageside Seats and Voices of Wrestling. I definitely suggest checking out the latter as their ROH reviews are a nice read, and if you like them, you'll probably like the rest of the site, too, as they cover a lot of professional wrestling across the globe.

Dalton Castle attacks "The Last Real Man" Silas Young and The Beer City Bruiser before the start of the first match. Security rush in to remove Castle, with Castle saying "Make me proud" to The Boys. Young then grabs the microphone and scolds The Boys for squandering all the opportunities he gave them to become men, and says that if they beat him and The Bruiser, he will leave professional wrestling.

He calls out whom Steve Corino has sent out. Steve Corino shows up, and Whitmer tells him to get in the ring so he can break his neck. Corino tells Whitmer that he and everyone else in the crowd is sick and tired of him, and tells him that eventually, he will get in the ring and beat BJ Whitmer. When Corino tells Whitmer who he's contacted to take down Whitmer, it turns out to be none other than Adam Page, who turns on Whitmer and starts a brawl. Officials have to break this fracas up, and Page mows through a few of them to go at it with Whitmer some more.

Chris Sabin is in the ring.

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.
