Kenny King vs. Jay White: This is a late addition to the show, playing off of King and The Rebellion attacking White and the Machine Guns while also trying to recruit their friend Lio Rush. White is a NJPW young lion, in the US on his learning excursion and is really good for his experience level. They worked back and forth, keeping a really nice pace early. King had control, White hit the dropkick, and King then cut him off with a leg lariat. White fought back, taking King down and paying tribute to Honma with a falling kokeshi. King quickly sent White to the floor and then wiped him out with a corkscrew dive. Back in and King missed a springboard leg drop allowing White to hit the back elbow.

King hit the toss up facebuster, and then a bridging fisherman’s buster for the near fall. They traded strikes back and forth, but White hit a flatliner and a German but King cuts him off with a spinebuster. White then laid in strikes, and hit a suplex into the buckles and King got the ropes. White up top, gets cut off and King follows him up and they battle up top. King back flips off, hits a jumping enziguri and looks for a cradled superplex, but White shoves him off and hits a high cross, King rolls through and White then rolls him up and picks up the win. Jay White defeated Kenny King @ 10:00 via pin

Sabin hit a dive; Young cut off Cheeseburger and nearly died on a dive. Cheeseburger caught on a dive, allowing Martinez to hit a sweet step up dove onto the pile.

ROH Six-Man Title Match: Champions The Kingdom vs. Dalton Castle & The Boys: We got the big brawl to begin, Castle hit some suplexes and the Boys hit dives. Castle and the Boys took control, with Castle using the Boys as weapons; slamming them onto the champions. It didn’t last long as one of the Boys got slammed off of the apron, it looked like it sucked big time. The Kingdom took the heat, triple teaming the injured Boy, and choking him out in the ropes. Castle distracted the ref, the Boys pulled the switch and Cabana tried to tell the ref. Castle got the hot tag, and then started to suplex fools around, and scored the near fall. Castle flubbed a catch, but Taven covered it well going for a pinning combo to save the spot. Castle then went back for the German right away, which I was not a fan of. Castle hit BangARang for a near fall; it broke down as the Boys hit double dropkicks. O’Ryan hit a springboard moonsault to the floor, but his shins crashed into the barricade, which had to suck so bad.

Scurll then started to stomp the shit out of Rush’s arm and hands, and then isolated the arm and started to often up Rush for the chicken wing. Scurll was basic, vicious and straightforward in his attack, maintaining focus well. Rush escaped the finger break spot, with a grade A pimp slap. Rush did a really good job on the comeback, constantly selling the left arm and fighting back one handed. Rush up top, had to roll through as Scurll moved out of the way.
