Honor Roll - Ring of Honor recap for June 13, 2015

The Decade (BJ Whitmer and Adam Page) are about to face War Machine (Hansen and Raymond Rowe) when Whitmer backs out and substitutes Colby Corino in his place, saying that Steve Corino can't seem to realize how much of a man Colby has become. Raymond Rowe tells Colby he's not ready, but Colby slaps Rowe anyway and immediately gets decimated.When Colby tries to tag Adam Page in, Page leaves him high and dry. War Machine beat The Decade. After the match, Steve Corino and BJ Whitmer almost come to blows.

Cedric Alexander is in the ring. Last year, he was a breakout star. This year, he's do or die, and he has to prove to his family that his wrestling career isn't a waste of time. He needs wins, and for his first one in a while, he calls out the undefeated Moose.

In the most shocking moment so far this year, Cedric Alexander beats Moose to break Moose's undefeated streak and give him his first ever loss in ROH. When Veda Scott gives Moose a foreign object to use against Alexander, Moose is hesitant and doesn't want to use it. Alexander takes the weapon out of his hand and uses it against him behind the referee's back to get the win.

During an Inside ROH recap of the feud between The Addiction (Christopher Daniels and Kazarian) and reDRagon (Bobby Fish and Kyle O'Reilly), Adam Cole shows up to hype The Kingdom (Michael Bennett and Matt Taven) vs. Bullet Club at Best in the World.

Hiroshi Tanahashi and Tetsuya Naito beat ACH and "Reborn" Matt Sydal.

Nigel McGuinness is in the ring for the contract signing between Jay Lethal and Jay Briscoe. McGuinness says that both the TV and World titles are on the line, and that there will be a 60 minute time limit.  He also says it’s the biggest match in ROH history, given what’s on the line in it.  Both men sign the contract before they are allowed to have any final words. Lethal says he wants Briscoe at his best so that he has no excuses when Lethal proves he's the #1 man in ROH, while also namedropping his family. Briscoe tells Lethal that if he loses, he’ll "have to go back to Black Machismo". Lethal pushes the table to the side, and Briscoe and Lethal then stare each other down, with Lethal saying he made the TV title while telling Briscoe the World title made him, to end the show.

Honor Roll - Ring of Honor recap for January 31, 2015

Special thanks to Kianna Fury for the promo descriptions, which I've paraphrased. Check out her blog. You won't be disappointed.

J. Diesel, Truth Martini and Jay Lethal are unhappy with the fact that Lethal himself has to defend the ROH World Television Championship against two guys he's already beaten. One of them, ACH, plans on reclaiming the TV title.

Veda Scott briefly guests on commentary for the next match.

Moose beats The Romantic Touch.

The Decade (Jimmy Jacobs, B.J. Whitmer, Adam Page) is in the ring. Jimmy Jacobs says that he is proud of the house he has built, but he doesn't understand how people can cheer for the likes of Alberto El Patron waltzing into Ring of Honor, Kevin Steen "walking" out and A.J. Styles coming and going as he pleases. Jimmy says that while Roderick Strong is trying to get back to the top of ROH (and treating it like a monarchy), he and The Decade are going to look out for everybody else. Jimmy gives three wrestlers an opportunity to showcase their skills, but B.J. Whitmer grabs the mic and proposes a much better idea - FOUR guys should have an opportunity, and he removes himself from the match, bringing in Chris LeRusso to fill the void. B.J. Whitmer briefly guests on commentary for the next match as he watches on, much to the chagrin of Steve Corino.

The Decade (Jimmy Jacobs, Adam Page) and Chris LaRusso beat the three up-and-comers. After the match, B.J. Whitmer attacks LaRusso.

The Briscoes (Jay and Mark Briscoe) can't wait to join forces with ODB and take on The Kingdom (Maria, Matt Taven, Michael Bennett) next week.

Jay Lethal will be defending the ROH World Television Championship against Alberto El Patron at the 13th Anniversary event on March 1.

Cameron Caprice guests on commentary for the next match.

Ashley Sixx beats Dalton Castle to continue on to the next round of the 2015 Top Prospect Tournament. During the match, two men in black hoodies and red masks watch from backstage.

Adam Cole appears for the first time since Final Battle...with an broken arm. He looks around for a steel chair and stares briefly at Kevin Kelly and Steve Corino before sitting in the ring. He holds the mic to his mouth, but drops the mic before he can speak. He flips the audience off, then he leaves.

Jay Lethal retains the ROH World Television Championship against ACH and "Reborn" Matt Sydal. After the match, Truth Martini and Lethal attack Sydal and ACH until Alberto El Patron rushes, forcing them to retreat.
