ROH TV #90 March 14, 2015 Amsoil Arena, Duluth MN
WGTT vs The American Wolves The Wolves and Greatest Tag Team put on a dance tonight. Haas and Benjamin started off in control for awhile but it did not take long for Richards and Edwards to comeback. Soon Eddie was taking it to Charlie and then some. Whenever Shelton would try and help Davey would cut him off. Benjamin like a good heel would protest but the ref would not hear of it. Then Davey got the tag and went to work on Haas. In no time at all Haas was locked in the ANKLE LOCK and with no where to go he was tapping right away. After the match was over Shelton tried helping Charlie up, but Haas shoved Benjamin away questioning him on why he did not save Charlie from tapping. Shelton tried to explain himself but Haas wasnt hearing it, and shoved Shelton down again before leaving on his own.
Nigel comes out to the ring next and he doesnt look happy. NM: Ladies and Gentlemen, I am out here tonight to give an update on the main event for Super Card of Honor. Since Kevin Steen and Michael Elgin cannot stay away from each other, for the good of the main event, I have banned both men from the building until we get to California for Super Card of Honor! There will be no sneek attacks and no more injured superstars. If I see Michael Elgin enter this building anytime in the next week, he will forefit the match and I will find Kevin a new opponent. If I see Kevin Steen anywhere around I will cancel the match and strip him of the ROH Title! Now onto the show!"
Women of Honor Match Barbi Hayden vs Sara Del Rey The ladies make a very rare appearance tonight. Hayden and Del Rey put on a really good match. For the beginning towards the middle Hayden controlled and dominated Sara which was a rare sight to see. Sara tried her best, and finally got back into things and beat Barbi around the ring. Then Sara threw Hayden into the ropes and tried a sunset flip. Hayden had the presence of mind to cradle Del Rey's legs and the ref counted the three.
TD Thomas vs Matt Sydal TD was having his first singles match against Matt Sydal. Thomas used all of his CAPOEIRA experience to take it to Sydal. Matt tried his best to get into the match and keep some momentum going into Super Card of Honor. Sydal was just off his game tonight and had nothing to offer as Thomas ran right through him and eventually finished Matt off with his FLURRY OF CAPOEIRA KICKS.
Bryan Danielson vs AJ Styles Things were going along nicely in this match until the end. Both men were going back and forth with each other countering everything and then some. Pretty soon it became a game of anything you can do I can do better. It wasnt long before they spilled out of the ring and continued brawling all over the place. The ref tried to get them back in but they were not listening and he eventually had to count Danielson and Styles out. The fans were not happy at the double countout but it couldnt be helped.
See you all next week!

ROH TV #91 March 21, 2015 Amsoil Arena, Duluth MN
We are one week from Super Card of Honor, and tonight promises to be explosive, so lets get to the action!
Adrenaline RUSH vs War Machine This was a quick 3 minute match. ACH started off with Ray Rowe and it went about how you would expect. ACH tried his quickness and Rowe just blasted him into the ground. An Avalanche belly to belly suplex and T-Bone suplex flattened ACH into the mat, but he would not stay down for the count so Hanson was tagged in and together Hanson and Rowe finished ACH off with WAR MACHINE. Thomas made no attempt to make the save as Hanson got the three count. TD seemed really upset that he didnt get into the match and he picked up a wobbly ACH. ACH tried to apologize for his lack of offense, but something in Thomas seemed to snap and he blasted ACH with his FLURRY OF CAPOEIRA KICKS before leaving the ring to boos.
Brian Cage vs Chris Hero Hero was in a good mood following his last win, while Cage was in a bad mood that his friend and partner wasnt allowed in the arena. It turned out to be a a bad night for Cage. Hero was all over him from the start of the match, and never let Cage get anything in. Cage did survive 2 DEATHBLOWS, so Hero teed up and when Cage got to his feet Hero blasted him with a CYCLONE KILL and got the win.
Adam Page vs Jay Lethal This turned out to be a sad debut for Adam Page. Lethal was totally in control right at the bell. A low blow by Lethal started off, followed by a Lethal Combination put Page right on the mat. Jay then went in for the kill and finished Page off with a LETHAL INJECTION. It appears that Jay Lethal has all the momentum going into his title match.
Austin Aries vs Rhino Well Aries tried his best to fend off the assault of Rhino, but it was not meant to be. Whatever A Double tried Rhino stopped him cold. Then Rhino went into Man Beast mode and just demolished Aries. When Austin kicked out of a side belly to belly suplex, Rhino got angry. Rhino set himself up in the corner and when Aries finally got to his feet, Rhino took Austin right out of his boots with a GORE!. The pinfall was just academic after that.
We will see you next week at Super Card of Honor!

War Machine is on fire, as they head toward their tag title shot... Hope that Black & Jacobs are enjoying what could be their final days as champions...
Cool to see Nigel taking the bull by the horns to ensure that Steen and Elgin are both healthy going into the upcoming PPV... Nice work by the ROH matchmaker...
Like the rest of the fans, I was definitely left wanting more after the double count-out between Styles and Danielson... Any chance of a rematch?
Entertaining, as always... It's obvious to see you're on a roll... Full steam ahead! And thank you for keeping Punk in the rotation... It's always cool to see him active (even though he lost a heartbreaker to Alexander)... Great stuff!

Super Card of Honor March 28, 2015 The Sports House, Redwood City, CA
Welcome to Super Card of Honor! We have an action packed night for you all and we dont want to waste anymore time so lets hit the ring!
Charlie Haas vs Shelton Benjamin Haas and Benjamin kicked off Super Card of Honor. These two had a blow up a couple of weeks ago and it goes into tonight. Charlie and Shelton know each other so well that this made for a really interesting match. Haas would control the match for a little while until Benjamin countered a move and went on a streak of his own. Back and forth they went for 10 minutes until Shelton really went on a tear. He hit Haas with PAYDIRT 4 times in a row, but Charlie kicked out every time. Shelton was really frustrated by this and changed things up a bit to really pound Haas into the ground. Satisfied with his work, Benjamin hit Haas with one more PAYDIRT and this time Haas stayed down for the count. Wrestling's Greatest Tag Team has come to an end, and now we see where Haas and Benjamin go from here.
ACH vs TD Thomas This was another match made out of a blow up and team split. ACH wanted to teach TD Thomas a lesson for turning on him, and TD just didnt seem to care anymore. What happened was Thomas dominated ACH pretty much the entire match. Thomas used all of his ability to keep ACH down and from flying. Finally though Thomas made a mistake and ACH took advantage. He blasted Thomas with everything he had then finished things off with ACH'S BIG BANG ATTACK to send his former partner packing.
ROH World Tag Team Title Match War Machine vs The Age of The Fall(c) What a difference a couple of weeks makes. Black and Jacobs are finally home to roost after losing the CZW Tag Titles last week, and they were hell bent on keeping the ROH Titles. Hanson was on the receiving end of their anger and Rowe never got into the match. Black and Jacobs just pounded on Hanson in what was a departure from 2 weeks ago when it was War Machine doing the dominating. Black did what he does best, then tagged in Jacobs for cleanup duty. Jimmy did what he always does and that is go for blood. Toward the end Jacobs behind the refs back blasted Hanson in the face with his RAILROAD SPIKE and when Rowe tried to make the save Black knocked him out of the ring and Jimmy got the three count. The Age of The Fall once again retain their ROH Tag Team Titles!
Bryan Danielson vs AJ Styles These two were having a rematch from 2 weeks ago that ended in a double countout. This match was much different. Danielson and Styles just beat the ever loving crap out of each other and enjoyed every second of it. Bryan would control the match for a spell then AJ would get control, and back and forth they went. Then Danielson would make a mistake and Styles capitalized. AJ flipped and kicked his way to total control of the match before finally catching Danielson with the STYLES CLASH and getting the win.
ROH World TV Title Match Matt Sydal vs Jay Lethal(c) Wow what a match! These two just beat on each other and their hatred showed. Sydal had control for a good bit and pounded away on Lethal. At one point Matt hit Lethal with a flawless SHOOTING SYDAL PRESS and went for the pin. Suddenly from out of nowhere Truth Martini rushed the ring and distracted both the ref and Sydal. That allowed Lethal to catch his breath but Sydal just went back on the attack. Eventually Jay got himself control of the match and went to work on Matt. Lethal did everything he could to keep Sydal down, but once again Matt made his comeback. After yet another SHOOTING SYDAL PRESS Truth again interjected himself into the match, and this time it cost Matt dearly. While Sydal was dealing with Martini Lethal got to his feet and attacked. With Truth laughing at ringside Jay lined Sydal up and then tossed him into the ropes. When Sydal rebounded off Lethal blasted a LETHAL INJECTION and picked up the win retaining his title. Truth Martini jumped into the ring following the match and handed Jay his TV Title belt. Then smiling he put his hand out, the fans were torn and tried to tell Lethal not to do it, but Jay ignored them and smiling himself shook hands with Truth Martini. Jay Lethal appears to be the first member of the new House of Truth!
ROH World Heavyweight Title Fight Without Honor Match Michael Elgin vs Kevin Steen(c) Now this was a war! Both Steen and Elgin beat the holy hell out of each other. Elgin attempted a powerbomb through a table on Steen, but Steen countered with a back body drop putting Elgin through the table. Later on Elgin threw a chair right into Kevin's face busting him open. When Elgin saw the blood, he smiled and moved in for the kill. Pounding away on Steen, Elgin did what he could to get the win and the title. Then a returning El Generico came out and tried to help Steen. It worked to a point as Steen got control of the match back, and tossed Elgin outside. Kevin followed Michael out and just tossed Elgin into the guard rail like a sack of potatoes. Once back in the ring Elgin managed a comeback and just hit Steen with Buckle Bomb after Buckle Bomb. Steen would not give up however so Elgin once again picked Steen up and flattened him into the mat with a Black Hole Slam. That was finally enough for Elgin to get the three count, and we have a new ROH Champion!
NEW ROH WORLD HEAVYWEIGHT CHAMPION: MICHAEL ELGIN
Elgin is now a 2 time ROH Champion and he holds the belt high to the boos of the crowd as Brian Cage comes out to celebrate with his partner and Super Card of Honor comes to a close. Join us next week for the fallout on ROH TV!

Superb show, all the way... Really loved the blow-up between Haas and Benjamin... And it was cool to see Age of the Fall retain the tag straps... Very impressive!
Great to see a decisive finish between Styles and Danielson... But, I'm thinking neither of these competitors will be satisfied until they've proven themself better than the other... Beyond a shadow of a doubt!
Highlight match of the show, IMO... Lethal vs. Sydal for the ROH TV Championship... Lethal joining the HoT certainly helped him secure a victory here... And I wonder how the result would have been different if Martini had not been present at ringside...
Congrats to 'Unbreakable' Elgin on claiming the World title in a stellar main event... Great stuff!

ROH TV #92 April 4, 2015 Amsoil Arena, Duluth MN
ROH TV starts off in the new week with new Heavyweight Champion Michael Elgin. He is all happy as the fans boo him on his way to the ring.
ME: "Yes, I finally got my revenge on Kevin Steen and took back MY Heavyweight Title! It was such sweet revenge too Kevin, since you denied me my revenge on Adam Cole, you were the next best thing. Now I am once again on top of the mountain and there isnt anybody that will knock me off!"
KS: "Oh Elgin, whatever will we do with you? Yes you finally beat me last week, and got your revenge, la de fricken da. But guess what Mike? I have a rematch coming to me, and I will take it at Conquest! You and me one more time for the ROH World Title, but this time, there will be no interference, no nothing. This time, we will settle this in Cage Wars!"
Inside the ring Elgin was fuming at the idea of having to be locked in a cage with Steen, but he managed to compose himself. ME: "Fine Kevin, you want me in Cage Wars, I will see you then, but make no mistake, I WILL walk out of Conquest still ROH World Heavyweight Champion!"
Roderick Strong vs Homicide Roddy has finally returned to ROH and looks to turn over a new leaf. Tonight he had Homicide standing in his way. Strong has been away for a few months and it showed because Homicide just picked Roddy apart. Unseen by the ref Cide stabbed Strong in the face with his fork a couple of times eventually drawing blood. It didnt end there as Homicide just tore through Roddy and in short order planted him with DA GRINGO KILLER to pick up the victory and spoil Strongs return.
The Kings of Wrestling w/Sara Del Rey vs The American Wolves This was a really quick match. The KOW were trying to get back on the winning side of things and get back in contention for the Tag Titles. The wolves just wanted to win. Davey and Claudio started off, and Davey almost got the win after a multiple suplex assault, but Claudio reversed the pin and was close to scoring the win himself. When Davey kicked out Claudio just set him up and nailed a RICOLA BOMB, but again Richards kicked out. Claudio then tagged Hero in to finish things off. Davey was still out on his feet after the ricola bomb so Hero teed up and blasted him with a ROLLING ELBOW SMASH. Davey got the shoulder up in the nick of time. While the ref was checking to see if Richards could continue Hero got his golden elbow pad on and had it nice and loaded up. As Davey once again got to his feet Hero went full force and nailed Davey right in the face with his LOADED ROLLING ELBOW. Claudio managed to cut Eddie off as Hero made the pinfall and got the three.
The music of the HOT hits and the fans are just livid as Truth Martini and Jay Lethal come down to the ring. All kinds of insults are being thrown at the pair but they are ignored.
TM: "Yes, I said I was going to be on the look out for brand new members of The House, and I found my first one with no problem at all HAHAHAHA! Jay Lethal is the perfect first member, being the current Television Champion and soon to be World Champion!"
JL: "That is right Truth! People have been asking me all week, why Jay, why did you join Truth Martini, he will be bad for your career. I joined up with The House to be The Best! Roderick Strong was ROH World Champion for over 1 year, and it is not Truths fault that Roddy lost the title either. I plan on taking the World Title one day, and to do that I wanted somebody by my side that I could trust to help me get there. Truth Martini is that person. Which brings me back to Super Card of Honor, Matt Sydal, you put up a pretty good fight against me, but you still lost! However you impressed me enough to give you another chance at Conquest, IF you can beat me, and that is a might big if, then the TV Title is yours. But WHEN I beat you, it is to the end of the line for you buddy! Sydal I will see you at Conquest!"
Samoa Joe vs Tommaso Ciampa This was a hard hitting match! Joe and Ciampa threw everything they had at each other. Pretty soon though it was Joe who had control and would not let up on Ciampa. Joe was all over Ciampa and would not let him back in the match at all. Finally though Joe got Ciampa up and splatted him on the mat with a MUSCLE BUSTER to pick up a win.
Bryan Danielson vs Kyle O'Reilly This was another quick match. Danielson had control for a minute until he made a mistake and Kyle took over. O'Reilly started working over the left arm of Danielson and finally locked in ARMAGEDDON. Bryan managed to make it to the ropes, so Kyle dragged him back to the middle and again locked in ARMAGEDDON. Danielson fought as hard as he could, but eventually had to tap out. This is a very big win for Kyle O'Reilly.
We will see you next week!

What a way to open things up... With 'Unbreakable' Michael Elgin answering the challenge of Kevin Steen... Those two inside the cage... With the big prize at stake... Awesome!
Homicide spoils Strong's return... Snap! Homicide always seems to be the fly in the ointment, doesn't he? But, one of the top talents in the game, without a doubt...
The match between the Kings and the Wolves was quite impressive... And it was very cool to see O'Reilly picking up such a big win over the American Dragon...
In my eyes, the shining moment was the promo you wrote for Jay Lethal... You captured him PERFECTLY! I honestly heard his voice while reading those words... Absolutely stellar work!

ROH TV #93 April 11, 2015 Amsoil Arena, Duluth MN
Whitmer & Page vs Bad Influence It appears that BJ Whitmer has taken Adam Page under his wing and trying to help the young man. Tonight was his first test against Bad Influence, but Page never got into the match. BJ started things off and right from the get go Daniels and Kaz dominated him. Page being the inexperienced partner he was tried to help a few times, but it always cost him because the ref was getting him back to the corner and it gave Bad Influence a chance to double team Whitmer. At the end Daniels hit BJ with an ANGEL'S WINGS and Kaz cut Page off from the save as BJ went down for the count.
Roderick Strong vs Delirious This was a quick 2 minute match. Roddy was still frustrated about last week, and Delirious was just Delirious. The Incoherent one started things off in control, and after taking a Shadows Over Hell Roddy bailed to the floor. Delirious followed him outside right near a table, and when Roddy saw that he grabbed Delirious and put him right through it with a spine buster. The ref had no choice but to call for the DQ.
Mike Mondo vs Matt Sydal This was a pretty good match. Mondo and Sydal went back and forth with each other for the majority of the match, until Matt got control and was all over Mondo. Matt then went for a suicide dive but Mondo caught him and smashed Sydal into the mat. From there it was all Mike Mondo, and Matt offered no defense when Mondo grabbed him and spiked him into the mat with a NO FEAR DDT and got the win.
Brian Cage vs Kevin Steen Steen came into this match looking for payback, and he got that somewhat. They had a good back and forth match really taking it to each other, until both men started brawling and they spilled out to the floor. The brawl continued and for some unknown reason the ref decided to get between the men and get them back in the ring. All that did was anger Steen who promptly shoved the ref on his butt. That was plenty for the DQ.
More action next week!

ROH TV #94 April 18, 2015 Amsoil Arena, Duluth MN
We are one week from Conquest, and the action is heating up around here like never before. Let's get to it!
The Hooligans vs The Age of The Fall London and Kendrick have returned to ROH! They have been gone for a very long time, and tonight they took on The Champs! Black and Jacobs looked really good against the returning duo, and both teams took it to each other. London and Kendrick had control for a bit then Black and Jacobs eventually took over and it was all Fall from that point on. It came down to Black and Kendrick with Tyler doing everything he could to keep Brian grounded and when Kendrick made his critical mistake, Black was right there and made him pay with GOD'S LAST GIFT.
CM Punk vs Austin Aries This was a great match! Punk and Aries just went at it tooth and nail. They went back and forth and countered just about everything the other had. It wasnt until Punk messed up that A Double took over. Aries did everything in his power to keep Punk on the ground and himself in the air. Then Punk got control again and took the fight back to Aries. It was when Punk tossed Austin outside that things went bad. As soon as Punk followed him out Aries snatched him up and planted Punk through a table with a powerbomb. For some reason the ref allowed this action and let them continue. Aries got Punk out of the rubble and rolled him back into the ring. Austin then climbed the turnbuckle and flattened Punk with a perfect 450 SPLASH and got the three.
Ethan Page vs Jay Lethal w/Truth Martini This was just too quick. Lethal came into the match supremely confident in his abilities, and he totally overlooked Ethan Page. Page made him pay for that at the start, but it angered Lethal that Page would not accept defeat and lay down. They started brawling and of course fell outside. The brawl continued for a bit until Page got the upper hand. That is when Truth handed Jay The Book of Truth and Lethal smashed Page upside the head with the good book drawling the automatic DQ in the process.
2 Cold Scorpio vs Michael Elgin This was nothing more than an extended squash for Elgin. Scorpio tried to take the big man down, but nothing worked. All Scorpio did was anger Elgin and it turned into a Scorpio smash fest after that. Elgin just pounded Scorpio down with move after move, and it seemed like Elgin was just toying with Scorpio. Finally Elgin had enough and after a brutal Buckle Bomb Elgin put Scorpio into position and just destroyed him with an ELGIN BOMB to get the merciful three.
We will see you next week for Conquest!

Snap! It looks like Punk really took the fight to A-Double, but he just couldn't follow through... Not cool...
