A big win over Nigel McGuinness leads to three straight losses for Mike Mondo, that's a bummer. I wanted Ciampa & Bennett to retain, but DEM BOYS are tough. More great action from a fun read and I look forward to more my friend...

Great victory by Roddy Strong... And even though the match never even got off the ground, you gotta like it when Jacobs & Corino take care of business in S.C.U.M.-like fashion... The Wolves are an awesome team, but I was very surprised at how easily they got past TWGTT... Would like to see a rematch there... Taven has been tearing it up in your ROH... Big win over a tough competitor like Homicide... And speaking of big wins... Reach for the sky! 'Cuz Dem Boys are wearing the gold! Love it! Sorry Crimson Cross... The main event fell a little shy of the bar set by the previous two matches... But, any losses for Adam Cole cannot be considered all bad... Entertaining stuff, my friend... Looking forward to more... Bring it on!

Thanks for the comments fellas! RING OF HONOR Television Taping #13 April 1st, 2015o William J. Myers Pavilion Baltimore,MarylandMike Mondo versus Tommaso CiampaMondo's losing streak continues as Ciampa punished him from the opening bell and after landing a running knee in the corner- was covered for the three count. (** 1/2) C & C Wrestle Factory versus The Kingdom"We did it! We did it!" is exactly what Coleman & Caprice were chanting with the crowd after this match as they shocked the world and ended their winless streak! Unfortunately, The Kingdom's first match as a team, even with interference from Bob and the luscious Maria, Matt Tavern would fall to Coleman's C & C CONNECTION COMBO to end the match. (1/2 *) Nigel McGuiness versus Rhett TitusNigel smacked the taste out of Rhett's mouth and pounded Titus mercilessly for nearly ten minutes. However, McGuinness would miss a turnbuckle charge and Rhett Titus countered with a MUFF DIVER for the upset victory. (***) Young Bucks versus House of Truth (w/ Truth Martini)The Young Bucks put on a show with their high flying antics but it would be the ground-and-pound wrestling of Martini's group that would prevail. After a failed MOONSAULT by Matt Jackson, Rhino leveled the Young Buck member with a GORE! for the win. (* 1/4) Homicide versus BJ WhitmerThe most exciting thing in this match was the ROH crowd chanting "BJ Weiner" whenever Whitmer mounted any type of offense! Sadly the chants weren't very long and Homicide easily put Whitmer down with a piledriver. (**) reDRagon versus World's Greatest Tag TeamA surprisingly one sided bout! Charlie Haas caught Kyle O'Reilly early with a series of HAAS OF PAINS and Haas tagged out to Benjamin. Shelton blasted O'Reilly with a PAYDIRT and had the referee slap the mat three times. (** 1/4) Roderick Strong versus QT MarshallA fantastic bout! The action went back and forth for several minutes but it would be Strong that blasted Marshall with a SICK KICK out of nowhere for the pinfall. (****) Adrenaline Rush versus S.C.U.M.Jimmy Jacobs and Corino owned their opponents with several finishers and using illegal objects. Sadly, they went to the well once too often, and the referee caught Steve Corino using a chain to choke ACH. The ref had no choice but to call for the bell and award Adrenaline Rush the match. Adrenaline Rush continues the winning streak. (**). Adam Cole versus El GenericoWow! El Generico tossed around Adam Cole and Cole responded by putting the hurt on the "Mexican Luchadore"! Back and forth for close to eight minutes but Generico went for the BRAINBUSTAAAHHH!!!! but Cole countered with his own finisher- FLORIDA KEY! Adam covered his opponent and the rest was academic. (***). ROH World Tag Team Championship Non-Title Match:Briscoe Brothers(ch) versus American WolvesThese two met a few cards ago and the match was an instant classic! Umm...this particular one wasn't as the Briscoes meant business this time around and handled the Wolves like rag dolls! Everytime either of the Wolves would get started, the Briscoes beat them down until Mark BRiscoe caught Eddie Edwards in a shooting star press for the title defense. (** 1/2). **MAIN EVENT** ROH World Heavyweight Championship Non-Title MatchKevin Steen(ch) versus Jay LethalMan...Steen has dominated during his reign and Lethal (much to the chagrin of my 13 year old ) didn't stand a chance! Steen bullied the challenger ,and without even breaking a sweat, put "The Greatest First Generation Star's" shoulders down for the three after a PACKAGE PILEDRIVER! (*) Thanks for joining us and hope to see you next time around.

Time for Mike Mondo to move on, I think (maybe to make room for a different Mondo on the roster... LOL!)... Unexpected victory for C&C Factory... Seems like even they were taken a bit by surprise... Enjoyed the win by reDRagon... And both Strong and Marshall turned in quality performances, as they squared off... But, I would've liked to see El Generico defeat 'Cry-Bay-Bay' Cole (whoops! maybe he's not a whiner at all in this particular fed... sorry)... The final two matches weren't the greatest of the night, but I'm sure they served their respective purposes... Solid action, my friend... Color me entertained!

Thanks for the comments Pariah! RING OF HONOR Television Taping #14 April 8th, 2015 NORTH ATLANTA TRADE CENTER Norcross,Georgia Nigel McGuinness versus Bryan Danielson"The American Dragon's" debut was a huge success as he stunned not only the crowd but Nigel with numerous high impact moves (including a series of MMA ELBOWS) and would catch the Englishman in a cross body block from the top turnbuckle for the pinfall. (** 1/2) C & C Wrestle Factory versus The KingdomMaria Kanellis was furious about the Kingdom losing to the Connection and immediately demanded a rematch! Still riding high on their first win, C & C granted that request! Tsk...tsk...old habits are hard to break I guess because The Kingdom dominated their opponents with numerous tag team antics(and Maria interfering when the need arose). In the waning moments of the match, Matt Tavern executed an ARM TRAP HEADLOCK DRIVER on Caprice Coleman to garner the three count. (**) Jay Lethal versus Rhett TitusAt the opening bell, Lethal came out with guns ablazing as he tossed Titus around with a Dragon Suplex and used a LETHAL INJECTION maneuver early but would only get the two count. Rhett never was able to recover and mount an offense and Lethal would apply a second LETHAL INJECTION minutes away from the first for the victory. (* 1/2) Young Bucks versus American WolvesThese two teams pulled out all the stops and gave the arena fans an exciting bout. After several near pitfalls, Davey Richards performed a duplex on Nick Jackson and the two went tumbling over the top rope onto the arena floor! It was obvious that Nick Jackson fell onto the floor weird because he was unable to regain his footing and would be counted out by the referee. (** 3/4) El Generico versus Tommaso CiampaA one-sided contest! The "Mexican Luchadore" used a standing moonsault right out of the gate and picked up the Sicilian to execute a textbook BRAINBUSTTTTAAAAHHHH!!!! for the duke. (DUD) reDRagon versus S.C.U.M.This match was one of conflicting styles as one side wanted to wrestle and the other wanted to brawl! Unfortunately for redrawn, the team that wanted to brawl came out on the winning side as Jacobs and Corino used foreign objects to cheapen the fans experience! At the five minute mark, Jimmy Jacobs would jab the RAILROAD SPIKE in Bobby Fish's eye and would roll the flailing star up for the referee to slap the mat three times. (*) Homicide versus BJ WhitmerOnce again, the only highlight of Whitmer's match was the "BJ Weiner!" chants as Homicide simply beat Ohio native nearly unconscious. After Homicide seemed to have had enough, he used a Tope con Hilo for the win. (** 1/2) World's Greatest Tag Team versus House of Truth(w/ Truth Martini)Solid action! The action swayed back and forth with several near pins occuring and even Martini stuck his nose in the bout (got dropkicked for his trouble by Haas)! However, it would be Benjamin catching Elgin in a sunset flip for an unexpected pin. (**). **ROH #1 Contender's Match**Adam Cole versus Roderick Strong"Mister ROH" didn't waste anytime and quickly used a jumping knee strike/rolling elbow combo and put Cole o his heels early. After a Gibson Driver, Roderick clamped on the submission maneuver STRONGHOLD! Cole tried to reach safety but didn't quiet make it and would tap out only inches away from the bottom rope. (DUD) ROH World Tag Team Championship Non-Title Match:Briscoe Brothers(ch) versus Adrenaline RushThe team of Adrenaline Rush has gone undefeated up to this match but would be simply outclassed by the Briscoes! ACH and TD were given a lesson in redneck kung fu and how to "MAN UP!". It was only a matter of time before the new tandem fell and at the eight minute mark- Mark Briscoe caught ACH in a DOUBLE FOOTBALL TACKLE for the defense. (**) **MAIN EVENT** ROH World Heavyweight Championship Non-Title MatchKevin Steen(ch) versus QT MarshallOnce again, Steen was dominating and signaled for the cannonball splash but QT Marshall pulled poor Todd Sinclair (the ref) in front and Todd took the brunt of the splash! Marshall signaled for his finisher but Steen grabbed him and performed a huge musclebuster that flattened the challenger! Sinclair regained consciousness and called for the bell- he awarded the bout to Steen as a result of a disqualification! (DUD) Thanks for joining us and hope to see you next time around.
RELEASED: Mike Mondo

Great debut for the American Dragon... Was also happy to see Strong defeat Cole to become the number one contender and The Briscoes successfully retaining the gold against Adrenaline Rush...
Looks like Bobby Fish might be out of action for a bit, courtesy of the Zombie Princess and a RAILROAD SPIKE... Yikes!
Plenty of great action on this episode of ROH TV... Nice work!
