ROH TV #103 July 11, 2015 Amsoil Arena, Duluth MN
Monster Mafia vs The Briscoes After last weeks attack and debut of Josh Alexander The Briscoes wanted a match this week. Things got a bit hairy at the start as Page and Alexander just dominated Mark. They tried putting Mark away several times, but he would always get the shoulder up or kick out. Finally Jay got tagged in and went to work. He just pounded away on Alexander and would not let up. After a nice dive outside onto Alexander Mark got the tag and finished things off. After a mighty headbutt Jay tagged back in and The Brothers hit Alexander with a DOOMSDAY DEVICE and that got the pinfall.
Cedric Alexander vs Donovan Dijak w/Truth Martini Dijak was having his first match as a full fledged member of the HOT and he did not disappoint. Cedric did his best to take the rookie down a peg, but Truth Martini was also on the outside offering advice and Dijak took everything in stride. Both men went back and forth for a good bit, until Cedric tried to get cute with a move off the top. Donovan jumped to his feet and caught Cedric as he was about to dive, and Cedric went flying alright, straight into the middle of the ring. As Cedric staggered to his feet Dijak lined up and blasted Alexander with a big boot right to the mush. That earned Dijak the pinfall victory and the House of Truth is really off to a great start.
Tommaso Ciampa vs Lance Hoyt Ciampa tried to out power Hoyt which was a big mistake as Hoyt was a man on a misson. He just destroyed Ciampa at every turn as The American Psycho dominated The Sicilian Psychopath. Ciampa did his best to take Hoyt down, but Hoyt would not hear of it, and pounded Ciampa down, before eventually finishing him off with a TEXAS TORNADO.
Austin Aries vs Michael Elgin Poor A Double never knew what hit him. Elgin beat Aries down and then would look over his shoulder to see if Thatcher was going to show up. Aries would try and capitalize on Elgins paranoia but Elgin was in no mood for that crap and cut Aries off to continue the beat down. A short time later Elgin was finished messing around and planted Aries with an ELGIN BOMB and got the win.
See you all next week!

ROH TV #104 July 18, 2015 Amsoil Arena, Duluth MN
We are one week from Death before Dishonor and things are just getting to a fever pitch! No more wasting time let's hit the ring!
The HOT music hits and out come Truth Martini followed by The Age of The Fall. The current longest reigning Tag Champs are all smiles as they hit the ring.
TB: "Death before Dishonor is in one week, and currently we have no challengers." JJ: "Now normally this would be upsetting to us, but then again it just means we will stay World Tag Team Champions for another month!" TM: "That is right Jimmy, and as long as you are part of the House you will remain Tag Team Champions. But, I have arranged a Tag match tonight, with the winners facing you two for the titles next week." TB: "Truth, it doesnt matter who fights tonight, we will take that winning team out at Death before Dishonor, and add them to the list of ever team in ROH that we have defeated in the last 13 months, so get them out here!"
The Young Bucks vs The Kingdom w/Maria What started out as a good match ended rather badly. The Bucks and Kingdom each controlled the match for awhile until toward the end it settled down to Nick vs Michael. Neither man could get a clear advantage over the other and they were both frustrated at not putting their man away. Then as they brawled near the ropes Nick tossed Bennett out and then followed to continue the brawl. They fought all around the ring and when the ref tried to get them back in, Bennett shoved him to the side and clocked Nick. That was plenty for the ref to call for the DQ and now The Bucks will go to Death before Dishonor to face The Age.
Moose w/Stokely Hathaway vs Roderick Strong Moose was finally being put to the test against a worthy opponent in Roddy Strong. Roddy did his best to take Moose out, but Moose was just too strong for Strong and soon it was Roddy on the back foot. Moose kept pressing his advantage and Strong could do nothing. Then Moose nailed Strong with a lariat and set himself up in the corner. As soon as Roddy got up and turned around Moose took Strong out of his boots with a SPEAR and got the pinfall.
Dalton Castle vs Rhett Titus Dalton was looking to get another shot at Jay Lethal as was Titus. Both men took it to each other trying to score the pinfall. Back and forth they battled for about 5 minutes until Rhett got the control he wanted and kept up the attack. Just a couple of minutes later Castle was hurt enough that Titus hit a MUFF DRIVER and that kept Dalton down for the count.
CM Punk vs Timothy Thatcher Thatcher was looking to rebound and take Punk out, but Punk and Elgin had other ideas. Right away Timothy threw Punk into the ropes and both went down on a double clothesline. At that point Elgin made his presence known. Thatcher eventually got up and went over to jaw jack with Elgin. That allowed Punk to to come over and wonder what was going on and as the ref backed Punk away Elgin sucker punched Thatcher and left. Punk saw none of this however but did see Thatcher on the ground and decided to pick him up and drag him over to the corner. Punk lifted Thatcher up onto the turnbuckle then climbed up himself and drove Thatcher into the mat with his PEPSI PLUNGE. That was enough for the win and again because of Elgin Timothy Thatcher loses yet again.
We will see you all next week for Death before Dishonor!

Impressive win for Moose... And looking forward to The Young Bucks getting a crack at Age of the Fall for the tag straps...
Always delighted to see the Straight Edge Superstar in action... Too bad his victory over Thatcher was tainted by Elgin's involvement...
Bring on Death Before Dishonor... Great stuff!

Death Before Dishonor July 25, 2015 William J Myers Pavilion, Baltimore MD
Welcome to Death Before Dishonor! It is going to be a great night of action so lets get to it!
ACH vs Adam Page w/BJ Whitmer This was a solid opener! Both guys shook hands before the match and then went at it. This was an evenly contested back and forth match. Neither man would have the advantage for very long before the other would cut him off. Finally ACH settled into a rhythm and never let Page back into the match. After a bit more time ACH hit Page with Fatality and that was enough for the three count.
ROH World Tag Team Title Match The Young Bucks vs The Age of The Fall(c) w/Truth Martini What a match this was! Both teams put it all on the line, The Bucks trying to win the titles and The HOT trying to keep them. The Bucks had a giant superkick party and Black and Jacobs were up to their dirty tactics. It was just poetry in motion as everybody flew around the ring. Many finishers were exchanged, but kickouts always happened. At one point Nick Jackson had Tyler Black pinned but Black reversed the pin. In turn Jackson reversed the reverse but Black managed to kick out. From that point though it was all Age of The Fall. They got angry and went on the attack as Truth Martini just cackled at ringside. Of course behind the refs back Jimmy produced his spike and blasted Matt right in the face with it. As Tyler cut Nick off Jimmy made the pin and got the three. The unprecedented reign of The Age of The Fall continues!
AJ Styles vs El Generico Wow, many people expected this to be a very good match, but it turned out to be very one sided. AJ dominated Generico at every turn. Whenever the Generic Luchador tried to mount some kind of offense Styles was right there to knock him back down to earth. 7 minutes in, AJ blasted Generico with a perfect springboard 450 splash and that was enough for the three count. Both men did shake hands after the match, but Generico looked none too happy, and I am sure there will be a rematch down the road.
Lance Hoyt vs Moose w/Stokely Hathaway And the string of domination continues. Hoyt was confident coming into the match that he would get revenge for his Inspire Pro boys. Moose however turned out to not be the coward we all thought he was. Moose crushed Lance right out of the gate and never let up. Hoyt did fire up for about a second before Moose practically decapitated him with a lariat and got the win.
ROH World TV Title Match Rhett Titus vs Jay Lethal(c) w/Truth Martini Lethal approached this match as if Titus was beneath him seeing as they have faced off so many times in the past. Titus was looking to return to his former glory as TV champion after 2 years away from the title. Well Jay was not in a giving mood tonight and destroyed Rhett Titus. It only took 5 minutes of Lethal smacking Titus around before Jay became bored and planted Rhett with a LETHAL INJECTION to pick up the victory and keep his reign intact.
Jay Lethal wasnt finished yet. He decided to inflict even more punishment on Rhett Titus and was beating him all over the ring. Officials and refs tried to intervene but Jay was just relentless. Finally from the back ran Kenny King! The fans came to their feet as King hit the ring and Lethal finally bailed before any more damage could be done. King helped his former partner to his feet and they embraced! The All Night Express is finally back together!
ROH World Heavyweight Title Match Timothy Thatcher vs Michael Elgin(c) Thatcher never stood a chance. This "World" Title match lasted just under 30 seconds. Elgin nailed Thatcher with a hard elbow right at the bell, then destroyed him with a Buckle Bomb that had Thatcher in a tremendous amount of pain. Elgin just smiled and went for the pin, and Thatcher was in too much pain to even bother kicking out.(snake eyes roll) In no time flat Michael Elgin has upped his superiority over ROH!
The next day roh.com reported that the Buckle Bomb jarred something in Timothy Thatchers neck and back and he will be out of action for an undetermined amount of time.
"Thank you for joining us tonight, we will see you next week for all the fallout on ROH TV!"

Holy snap! Elgin looked like a monster... And the team of Jacobs & Black refuse to let go of those belts...
Styles and Moose both dominated their opponents... Great to see those two climbing up on the rankings, as I expect either could give Elgin a better run for his money than he's seen lately... Unfortunate turn off events for Thatcher though... Hope he's not sidelined for too long...
Death Before Dishonor certainly delivered the goods... Nice work!

ROH TV #105 August 1, 2015 Amsoil Arena, Duluth MN
Welcome to ROH TV! Following Death before Dishonor we have now learned that after taking a Buckle Bomb, Timothy Thatcher suffered a freak injury and will be out of action for at least 2 months. Nigel has promised that he will find a replacement challenger for Michael Elgin and will reveal that man tonight! Let's not waste anymore time and hit the ring!
The House of Truth w/Truth Martini vs The All Night Express Dijak and new HOT bodyguard Joey Diesel were the HOT members tasked with taking out the ANX. Titus wanted to get his hands on Jay Lethal again, but tonight was not the night. He settled for the lesser mortals in Dijak and Diesel. Both teams went back and forth with each other for the majority of the match until finally ANX settled into a rhythm and King and Titus picked Dijak and Diesel apart. At almost 15 minutes in King and Titus hit Joey Diesel with their ONE NIGHT STAND finisher and as Titus cut Dijak off Kenny got the pinfall victory.
Silas Young vs Dalton Castle w/The Boys Silas was not a fan of Castle and his antics by any means. Throughout the match he kept saying that Dalton was going to become a real man, while at the same time berating The Boys. Dalton did maker a couple of token comebacks, but they did not last long as Young cut him back off. When Silas thought Castle could take no more, he finished things off with a PEE GEE WAJA PLUNGE to take the victory.
Nigel McGuinness came down to the ring ahead of the next match. He had a grim look on his face as he got the mic. NM: "As you all are aware Timothy Thatcher suffered a very bad injury to his neck and back last week. I have been told that Timothy will be out of action for at least 2 months maybe longer. With that in mind, I now have to find a new challenger for Michael Elgin, given that I do not trust him to do it. I have found that challenger and he will have a match tonight. That man is Drew Galloway!" The crowd goes nuts at this announcement, and Nigel is back to smiles. "Yes I am very excited to have signed Drew and I know he will make a fine addition to the ROH roster. That brings me to next month. In September we will be holding a very special event titled Tag Wars: Lethal Lottery! How it works is 20 teams will be randomly drawn to face each other. The remaining teams will face off in a battle royal and the winner of the battle royal will receive a title shot of his choosing! Starting next week and over the next several weeks we will be holding a match between two random teams. I look forward to seeing how this all turns out!"
Christopher Daniels vs Roderick Strong Strong has decided to shift his focus and entered the TV Title division. Daniels was his first step in climbing that ladder. Daniels did what he could to derail Roddy, but Strong was not to be denied tonight. Roddy did everything in his arsenal to keep Daniels down, but Chris did manage to get one comeback in and plant Strong with ANGEL'S WINGS but Strong got the shoulder up just in time. From there Strong got back into things and hit Daniels with everything possible, before knocking Daniels into next week with a SICK KICK that got the three.
Brian Cage vs Drew Galloway We heard that Elgin was not happy one bit that Nigel once again picked an opponent who has done nothing in ROH. Galloway was looking to make an impression and prove he had what it takes to be World Heavyweight Champion. Elgin decided to send his partner out there to take care of Drew. Cage worked the power game while Drew worked the ground and pound. It took a bit of back and forth but eventually Galloway and his ground and pound won out. Cage had no answer for anything Galloway was hitting him with and in the end Galloway hit Cage with Thee Move which got the three. Drew Galloway has taken his first step toward Michael Elgin and the World Heavyweight Title.
We will see you all next week!

ROH TV #106 August 8, 2015 Amsoil Arena, Duluth MN
Nigel is in the back with both The Young Bucks and The Hooligans. NM: "Gentlemen tonight we are going to start the Tag Wars random draw! I have decided to use both of you as test subjects and have already drawn for your partners. So tonight Nick and Brian will face off against Matt and Paul! Goodluck!"
Tag Wars Pre Match Nick Jackson & Brian Kendrick vs Matt Jackson & Paul London What a way to kick off ROH TV! Naturally neither team was happy to have to face each other, but they made the best of it. London and Kendrick did go at it a few times as did the brothers Jackson. After a bit it settled down to London and Nick. They flew around each other and tried to kick each others head off but eventually London got the advantage and went on a streak from which there was no coming back for Nick. After a brief second where Matt tagged himself in and hit his brother with a moonsault, London got back in and finished things off with a perfect SHOOTING STAR PRESS to end the day with a victory.
Cedric Alexander vs Rhino Poor Cedric, was the victim of a Rhino assault. Alexander tried his hardest to overcome the brute force that was Rhino, however Rhino was having none of that. He picked Cedric apart like he was nothing and enjoyed every second of the beating he was dishing out. Cedric on the other hand after awhile offered no type of offense what so ever. He was basically a toy for Rhino to play with and when Rhino grew tired of playing around, he cut Cedric in half with a GORE! and wiped his hands of the match.
Tommaso Ciampa vs Chris Sabin Well this was a quick match in the TV division. Both men were looking to make waves and move up the rankings, but it was Sabin who got the upper hand. Ciampa tried some sort of move as he threw Sabin into the ropes, but Sabin had the good sense to stop short and plant Ciampa with a piledriver. With Ciampa out on his feet Sabin picked him up and hit HAIL SABIN to get the win in under 5 minutes.
Samoa Joe vs Michael Elgin Elgin figured he would have an easy time with Joe, but Joe had other ideas. Joe took the match to Elgin and in true fashion never backed down once. Elgin was getting frustrated at not being able to put Joe away so he just kept up with the beating and Joe absorbed the punishment. Joe went on a tear of his own in the middle of the match and almost had it won after hitting Elgin with the MUSCLE BUSTER but Elgin just kicked out, and that made Elgin very angry. After that the match belonged to Michael Elgin and Joe never got the chance to redeem himself. Elgin tossed Joe into the corner with a vicious Buckle Bomb, and as Joe rebounded out of the corner Elgin planted him into the mat with a mighty ELGIN BOMB and got the three count.
We will see you next week for another edition of ROH TV!

ROH TV #107 August 15, 2015 Amsoil Arena, Duluth MN
Tag Wars Pre Match Delirious and El Generico vs Adam Page and Kyle O'Reilly A couple of interesting pairings in this Tag Wars match to start off. Delirious and El Generico didnt seem to have a problem communicating, although they did not like each other. Sadly though O'Reilly never got into the match because Delirious and Generico worked over Page not letting him get any offense in nor allowing him to tag his partner. In a few short minutes Generico hit Page with a SPIKE BRAINBUSTER and went for the pin, but Kyle broke it up. Generico made the tag to Delirious who finished Page off with a Bizzaro Driver and got the pin while Kyle stood outside upset.
Joey Diesel w/Truth Martini vs ACH This was a pretty good match. The power of Diesel vs the speed of ACH. Both guys seemed intent on one upping the other however and it turned into a very back and forth match. Once they got to the outside however it was all Joey Diesel. He tossed ACH around like he was nothing and introduced ACH to the guardrails numerous times. Hampered now with a hurt back ACH tried his best to take the fight to Diesel. Joey had other ideas and with Truth cackling outside the ring Diesel went to work finishing ACH off. Two vertical suplexes later and ACH was in too much pain to kick out. Score one for the House.
Moose w/Stokely Hathaway vs Chris Hero Moose finally got a good test in Chris Hero. Hero was not going to go down easily for Moose at all. Both men used their power against each other and neither could get a clear advantage over the other. 8 minutes later Moose was frustrated that he could not put Hero away so he tossed Hero outside and they started brawling. The ref made the stupid mistake of trying to get them back in the ring, and Moose just launched the ref away. That was enough to earn Moose his first DQ loss.
Claudio Castagnoli vs Drew Galloway Talk about a quality main event! Claudio and Drew took the fight to each other never letting the other get an advantage for very long. It was like they have faced each other many times before, because both guys had counters for the other. Eventually Galloway got on track and took the fight to Claudio. Drew threw everything he had at Claudio and then some. Castagnoli got so frustrated that he finally tossed Galloway outside and followed him out. Claudio grabbed a nearby chair and when the ref tried to stop him, Claudio just blasted Drew with the chair. The crowd was stunned but the ref had no choice but to call for the DQ.
We will see you next week!

ROH TV #108 August 22, 2015 Amsoil Arena, Duluth MN
Tag Wars Pre Match Cedric Alexander and Cheeseburger vs Bobby Fish and Mark Briscoe This was another interesting set of pairings for possible Tag Wars partners. This match also did not last very long. Cheeseburger and Mark started off and went back and forth for a couple of minutes before each tagging in their partners. Cedric started off hot with Fish, but Bobby quickly turned things around and blasted away on Cedric. With Alexander hurt and Mark dealing with Cheeseburger Bobby locked Cedric in his FISH HOOK DELUXE EDITION and Cedric was tapping in no time.
Mike Mondo vs Rhino Mondo was back and trying to remain relevant in the grand skeme of things. Rhino just wanted to rip Mondo apart. Mike controlled Rhino for about a minute before Rhino took Mondo out of his boots with a clothesline. Rhino then went to work picking Mondo apart, and enjoyed every second of it. Finally Mondo was stumbling around while Rhino set himself up in the corner. As Mondo turned around Rhino tore Mondo in half with a GORE! and got the three count.
The music of the HOT hit and out came Jay Lethal led by Truth Martini. Jay seemed to be in a good mood for once as he had a mic. JL: "Tonight I am out here to offer up a chance for MY TV Title! With Tag Wars coming up, I will be taking part in that for reasons I dont understand, so I will not be defending the title then. So I have been scouting and watching since Death before Dishonor and have decided to give somebody a shot." TM: "And just who would that somebody be Jay? Hahahaha!" JL: "That somebody that I will defeat and remain Television Champion is AJ Styles! AJ if you have the guts get out here and accept my challenge!"
It didnt take long for AJ's music to play and he walked down to the ring. AS: "No more talking, let's do this!"
ROH World Television Title Match AJ Styles vs Jay Lethal(c) w/Truth Martini This was a completely one sided match. AJ just dominated Jay at every turn. Lethal never got to mount an offense at any point in the match. Even Truth was pacing around outside the ring worried that his man would lose. Lethal just barely kicked out of one STYLES CLASH, so AJ got Lethal in position again and hit another STYLES CLASH. The ref counted 2 and as he was bringing his hand down for the three Truth Martini pulled the ref right out of the ring! The ref was very unhappy with this and let Truth know it by DQing Jay Lethal! AJ picks up the victory but Jay Lethal remains TV Champion.
Alex Koslov vs Michael Elgin This was an interesting main event. Koslov took it to Elgin, who again thought he would have an easy match. Koslov proved that he was here to defeat the champion with everything he had. The first part of the match was all Koslov as he juked and jived all around Elgin frustrating him. Then Koslov got sloppy and hit CONTRACT KILLER a bit too early. Elgin kicked out with vicious power and that was when Koslov knew he had poked the wrong bear. Elgin was just vicious in his beatdown of Koslov and never once let Koslov back into the match. Elgin looked to finish things off with an ELGIN BOMB, but picked Koslov up at 2. With a nasty evil smile on his face, Elgin got Koslov into position and just destroyed Alex Koslov with a mighty AVALANCHE ELGIN BOMB. That was enough for the three. Following the match Koslov could be seen holding his shoulder in extreme pain and had to be helped to the back.
roh.com reported the next day that Elgins string of injuring his opponents has continued. Alex Koslov has a severely torn rotator cuff, and it could even be a career ender.
We will see you all next week!
