ROH TV Champion Marty Scurll vs. Adam Cole: Scurll refuses the handshake. Nice back and forth beginning, with Scurll doing some World of Sport shit to piss off Cole. Scurll did his bird dance, leading to Cole cutting him off and hitting a shining wizard. Scurll quickly fought back, escaped the attempted last shot and attacked the arm and they brawled to the floor. They both threatened to use weapons on the floor, they seemingly agreed to not use them but that led to Scurll trapping Cole in the ring skirt and then leveling him with the superkick. Back in the ring, Cole managed to fight back and hit the ushigoroshi; the crowd has been great so far. Cole then lit up Scurll with superkicks, they then traded kicks and Scurll hits the brainbuster for the near fall. Scurll fires up the crowd; he goes for the chicken wing and eats an enziguri and shining wizard for the near fall. Cole slowly took control and worked over Scurll, but as he celebrated Scurll grabbed his hand and did the winger break spot, followed with knees and kicks but Cole then hit the superkick and hit the package piledriver (from KO with love) for a GREAT near fall. Cole then grabs the TV Title, Scurll grabs his umbrella; hits Cole with it and hits the piledriver for another great near fall. The crowd is losing their shit here. Scurll looked for a trombone but Cole reversed it and hit one of his own for 2. Scurll then did the finger break spot to both hands, hit the pile driver and locked in the chicken wing and Cole tapped. Champion Marty Scurll defeated Adam Cole @ 13:10 via submission
Matt Taven & Vinny Marseglia vs. Beer City Bruiser & Silas Young: Silas Young subbed for the injured TK O’Ryan when the Kingdom lost the six-man titles. They started off with the crazy fists brawl, and then spilled to the floor. Marseglia then hit a dive as the Kingdom worked the heat on Young. The Bruiser returned to make the save, he and Marseglia yelled at each other. Bruiser hit a running cross body, Young cut off Taven and then Bruiser did the earthquake sitdown on Marseglia. Young and Marseglia brawled, Taven returned and after a suplerplex, he and Bruiser hit frog splashes. Bruiser to the floor, but as Taven makes his way to the floor, Bruiser recovers and hits a cannonball off of the apron. Marseglia takes time to light up a cigar, takes it in the ring and tries to burn out Young’s eye, but Young easily fights him off, hits misery and spokes the cigar as he picks up the pin. Beer City Bruiser & Silas Young defeated The Kingdom @ 7:05 via pin

ROH Six Man Tag Team Champions The Briscoes (Mark & Jay) & Bully Ray vs. The Guerrillas of Destiny (Tonga & Loa) & Hangman Page: The Briscoes worked a quick beginning stretch with Tonga, Loa tagged in after a bit and cut off Jay and beat him down in the corner. Good aggression by Loa early, he and Jay then largely beat the shit out of each other until Mark tagged in and then they beat the hell out of each other. Tonga tagged back in as this continues to be an ass beating contest/straight up brawl. Ray tagged in and went face to face with his former students. It’s a nice sub-story to the title match. Ray offered handshakes, they accepted and then attacked and Tonga beat the shit out of him with ground and pound. Bullet Club isolated Ray in their corner. Ray would fire up but Loa cut him off and then Tonga returned but Ray fought off Bullet Club, headed up top and hit a high cross onto all three men. The champions then did the wassup elbow drop, and Ray told tem to get the tables. Bullet Club cut off the Briscoes and then beat down Ray. It’s chaos all around the ring as Page works over Ray with rights. Ray then cuts him of with the spear and gets the tag to Mark, he runs wild, hits the XPLODER on Tonga and brawls with Loa. Jay in now, Mark then hits a dive to the floor and Page his the shooting star press off the apron. Bullet Club isolates Jay, with Page attacking and renewing their rivalry. Mark tags back in, hits the fisherman’s buster and it breaks down with everyone in. Page and Jay up top now, Mark and Ray over and they hit a doomsday device to Tonga and Page. 3D on Loa and that’s that.

Texas Bullrope Match: Cody vs. Jay Lethal: Lethal is dressed in 1980s Crockett apparel for this match (jeans with knee pads on top, cowboy boots and a t-shirt). Cody goes Terry Funk with jeans and a “Lethal Sucks Eggs” shirt. Cody stalls before the bell, refusing to be tied to Lethal. This is a pinfall or stoppage match, no touching the corners bullshit. They brawled right away, with Lethal choking out Cody with the rope. It’s all Lethal early, laying in the chops and ripping off Cody’s shirt. Cody tries to keep the cowbell away from Lethal and slowly starts to fight back, and they go to the floor as Lethal ties up Cody with the bullrope and then beats on him with the cowbell. Lethal then posts Cody, who is now busted open. Lethal then drives the cowbell into the cut, and pulls him to the apron and ties Cody in the ropes and again attacks the cut. Lethal wipes Cody’s blood on his shirt as he continues the attack. Lethal to the floor, grabs a chair and lays Cody on it but Cody uses the rope to pull Lethal off the ropes and into the chair. Cody works jabs, but Lethal cuts him off and Cody uses the rope to counter the Lethal combination. The crowd is really getting into this and Cody goes to the floor, nails Lethal with the cowbell and pulls out an old clear mask, but then opts for the table. He sets it up, looks for a suplex, Lethal fights it off and hits a dropkick but Cody holds on. Cody then hits a springboard dropkick and attacks the knee and locks in the figure four. Lethal then uses the bell to escape the gold. More bell attacks by Lethal, and he heads up top; Cody then tosses him off and through the table on the floor. Cody follows to the floor, and rolls Lethal back in and kicks him in the balls and follows with the disaster kick and cross Rhodes, but Lethal kicks out. Cody then sets Lethal up top, takes off a boot and waffles Lethal with it. Coy then tries a superplex, but Lethal shoves him off the top and then follows with the elbow drop, but Cody used the cowbell to block it. Cody tries beautiful disaster and Lethal hits the cutter to counter and follows with Lethal injection and picks up the win. Jay Lethal defeated Cody @ 17:30 via pin

Some fun back and forth between Ferrara and the Guns to begin, Shelley tags in and the Guns work double teams and clear the ring. Sabin press slams Burger to the floor onto his opponent. Taylor and Titus took the heat on Ferrara, with Taylor easily controlling over the much smaller Ferrara. Titus knocks the Guns to the floor to keep the heat, but Burger gets the hot tag and works the Kojima like chops on Titus, who no sells then.

Will Ospreay & Volador Jr vs. Dragon Lee & Jay White: IT’S TIME FOR THE FLIPPY BOY SPECIAL and I mean that in a good way, this should be a ton of fun. White and Ospreay started off, actually showing some restraint and not going completely wild. After a glitch in the stream, White and Lee worked the heat on Volador for a bit, but Volador made the comeback and tagged in Ospreay. Ospreay was all fire dup, working kicks and springboard attacks. Great change of pace with Ospreay getting in here, hit the back handspring kicks and running shooting star press.

Ospreay back in and hits a step up shooting star press to the floor; White Germans Volador but as he goes up top, Volador cuts him off and HITS THE SUPER RANA off the very top and that’s good enough to pick up the win.
