1. Kevin Steen +2 [F-CINQ] vs. Eddie Edwards +3 - 6:58

- Kevin Steen of S.C.U.M. knocked off Eddie Edwards in our first match. After getting the pin following an F-Cinq Steen mockingly shook the hand of Edwards. Steen looked into the camera and said he wanted a shot at Homicide’s title!

2. The Young Bucks {0} (Matt Jackson +0 & Nick Jackson +0 [X]) vs. C + C Wrestle Factory {0} (Caprice Coleman +1 [Running High Knee in Corner] & Cedric Alexander +0) - 5:00

- Coleman and Alexander surprised the Young Bucks with an upset victory in the second match. Both teams struggled to gain any sort of momentum but the Bucks were slowly making headway, even hitting Coleman with ‘More Bang For Your Buck’. The finish came out of nowhere when Coleman knocked Nick out with a running knee and covered him before Matt even realized what had happened!

3. Jay Lethal +0 [Dragon Suplex] vs. Rhett Titus +0 - 0:14

- This was a textbook squash match. Lethal took charge and never gave Titus a chance.

- The next match was scheduled to be between Michael Elgin and Kyle O’Reilly, but while the two competitors were observing the Code of Honor Davey Richards charged the ring and attacked Elgin! Rhino came out to even the odds and the match was changed to a tag team match!

4. The House of Truth {2} (Michael Elgin +2 & Rhino +7 [Running Powerslam]) w/ Truth Martini {2} vs. {2} Kyle O’Reilly +3 & Davey Richards +5 [X] - 30:11

- Tensions were high in this impromptu tag match. Richards and O’Reilly effectively as a team as they isolated Elgin and cut the ring in half. Repeated interference from Martini and Rhino prevented Elgin from losing the match, but it seemed to be just a matter of time before he was pinned or submitted. The House of Truth’s fortunes changed when Elgin was able to muster the strength to deadlift Powerbomb Richards and then make the tag to a fresh Rhino. Rhino cleaned house, clobbering both of his opponents. Rhino finished Richards off with a running powerslam.

- Richards and O’Reilly didn’t take the loss lightly! Both men recovered and attacked Rhino while he was celebrating his victory! After a series of kicks Richards locked Rhino in the cloverleaf and leaned into it, refusing to release the hold while O’Reilly kept Elgin and Martini at bay. Finally the officials were able to separate Richards from Rhino. Rhino struggled to get to his feet and needed to be helped to the back.

5. Steve Corino +1 vs. Roderick Strong +0 w/ Truth Martini {0} - 1:40

- Strong easily overwhelmed Corino and trapped him in the Strong Hold for the quick submission win.

6. Jimmy Jacobs +0 vs. Grizzly Redwood +0 - 0:00

- This match never took place. Before the match began Jacobs took the mic from the ring announcer and addressed Redwood. He said that he recognized what a great wrestler Grizzly Redwood was but that none of these fans ever would. Jacobs offered Grizzly a spot in S.C.U.M. which Redwood accepted as the fans booed.

7. Team Mike {1} (Mike Mondo +3 [X] & Mike Bennett +0) w/ Brutal Bob {0} & Maria {0} vs. Wrestling’s Greatest Tag Team {0} (Shelton Benjamin +0 [PAYDIRT] & Charlie Haas +0) - 5:05

- WGTT continued to be unmatched in the RIng of Honor tag ranks. Mike and Mike looked completely out of their depth against Benjamin and Haas. Benjamin got the pin on Mondo after hitting Paydirt.

WGTT are so good, I had to ship them off to WWE from my ROH fed because they just couldn't be beat

1. Steve Corino +3 vs. Mike Mondo +0 [Jumping Big Boot] - 4:09

2. The Young Bucks {1} (Matt Jackson +0 [X] & Nick Jackson +4) vs. {0} Kyle O’Reilly +0 & Davey Richards +0 [ANKLE LOCK] - 6:46

- O’Reilly and Richards succeeded in grounding and neutralizing the Jacksons. Nick and Matt struggled to get any momentum going and were always cut off by a submission or suplex from either O’Reilly or Richards. The finish occurred when Richards trapped Matt in an ankle lock in the middle of the ring and Nick was unable to make the save.

3. Eddie Edwards +1 vs. Rhett Titus +0 [MUFF DRIVER] - 1:43

- Rhett Titus surprised everyone by getting a huge upset win over Eddie Edwards. After a flurry of offense Titus went for his Muff Driver and it got him the win.

- Before the next match began Kevin Steen took the mic and told Jay Lethal that he saw a lot of potential in him. He said that SCUM was always looking to expand and it was better to be on their side than against them. He told Lethal to think about it. Lethal told Steen, "Thanks but no thanks." As the two men followed the Code of Honor Steen went for a takedown!

4. Kevin Steen +3 [DQ for brawling] vs. Jay Lethal +5 - 11:39

- This match got out of hand right away! Steen hit Lethal with everything he had but it wasn’t enough to put his opponent down! Lethal kicked out of an F-Cinq, a Package Piledriver, a Powerbomb on the ring apron, and everything else Steen threw at him. Lethal started to mount a comeback but Steen took the fight outside of the ring and ended up getting disqualified! Things don’t seem settled between these two!

5. C + C Wrestle Factory {2} (Caprice Coleman +4 [X] & Cedric Alexander +0) vs. Wrestling’s Greatest Tag Team {0} (Shelton Benjamin +0 [PAYDIRT] & Charlie Haas +0) - 6:15

- Benjamin and Haas did what they always do, isolate and dominate. Coleman showed some signs of resilience by kicking out of the Leap of Faith three times, but when Benjamin hit Paydirt it was all over for the C + C Wrestle Factory.

6. The House of Truth {2} (Michael Elgin +7 [X] & Roderick Strong +0) w/ Truth Martini {2} vs. S.C.U.M. {0} (Jimmy Jacobs +0 [ROUGHNECKED] & Grizzly Redwood +0) - 9:00

- The S.C.U.M. team was all over Elgin, never letting him tag out. At one point Jacobs even used his railroad spike on the head of Elgin, busting him open in the process. Martini and Strong tried to interfere but to no avail! Jacobs pinned Elgin after hitting ‘Roughnecked’ with Redwood.

Non-Title Match
7. Tommaso Ciampa +0 vs. Homicide +5 [DQ for Attack with Fork] w/ Philly's Most Wanted {1} - 6:36

- Ciampa fought like a man possessed in this non-title main event! Ciampa hit big move after big move on Homicide, culminating in Project Ciampa! Philly’s Most Wanted appeared from the crowd to provide a distraction! While BLK Jeez argued with the referee Joker took Ciampa down! Once the referee had restored order Ciampa got back on the offensive. A frustrated Homicide pulled out a fork and began stabbing Ciampa in the head in full view of the official. The referee called for the bell and tried to pull Homicide off of Ciampa as the show ended!

- In the main event Homicide will defend the Ring of Honor World Championship against Tommaso Ciampa in a Fight Without Honor! Also, after last week’s match between Kevin Steen and Jay Lethal ended in a disqualification, a rematch with no disqualifications has been signed! Those matches will be later on tonight but first C and C Wrestle Factory will meet in the House of Truth in tag team action!

1. C + C Wrestle Factory {1} (Caprice Coleman +0 & Cedric Alexander +3 [X]) vs. The House of Truth {0} (Michael Elgin +0 [SPINNING SIT-OUT POWERBOMB] & Rhino +3) w/ Truth Martini {0} - 10:40

- Coleman and Alexander put up a good fight but it wasn’t enough to stop the House of Truth. Alexander kicked out of a ‘Gore’ from Rhino and took two of Elgin’s spinning sit-out powerbombs before finally getting pinned for the three count.

2. Eddie Edwards +5 vs. Roderick Strong +0 w/ Truth Martini {0} - 8:21

- Eddie Edwards lived up to the ‘Die Hard’ moniker tonight. He took nothing but abuse from Roderick Strong and barely got in any offense at all. Strong tried everything to keep Edwards down but he kept kicking out. The finish came when Edwards kicked out of a pin attempt following a sick kick and Strong converted into a ‘Strong Hold’ that got the submission.

3. Mike Bennett +0 w/ Brutal Bob {0} & Maria {0} vs. Steve Corino +0 [DQ for putting Bennett through a table] - 0:30

- This match devolved quickly and ended up outside the ring. Corino managed to put Bennett through the announcer’s table and the referee disqualified him as a result.

- In the back, Mike Mondo approached his opponent for the evening, Rhett Titus, and offered to buy himself another win like he did earlier this year. Titus told Mondo he regretted taking his money and wanted to pin him tonight to redeem himself. Mondo said that he respected that and told Titus he would see him in the ring. When Titus turned to leave Mondo attacked him from behind with a forearm to the back of the head! He beat Titus bloody and dragged him down the entrance way and threw him into the ring! He told the referee to ring the bell!

4. Mike Mondo +0 vs. Rhett Titus +3 [Counted Out] - 0:14

- When the bell rang Mondo gave Titus a buckle bomb. Titus instinctively rolled out of the ring but was unable to get to his feet and meet the referee’s count. The crowd booed Mike Mondo as the referee raised his hand.

5. {2} Kyle O’Reilly +3 [X] & Davey Richards +8 vs. Wrestling’s Greatest Tag Team {0} (Shelton Benjamin +4 [LEAP OF FAITH] & Charlie Haas +0) - 20:49

- O’Reilly and Richards gave it their all but Wrestling’s Greatest Tag Team is on another level. Haas and Benjamin spent the first half of the match focused on punishing Richards. By the time Richards finally managed to tag out he was so beat up that O’Reilly was basically on his own. O’Reilly fought hard, even managing to trap Benjamin in a guillotine choke, but it wouldn’t be enough. The match ended when Benjamin got the pin on O’Reilly after hitting a Leap of Faith.

No DQ Match
6. Kevin Steen +2 [PACKAGE PILEDRIVER] vs. Jay Lethal +3 - 7:05

- Lethal took control early and managed to hit two Lethal Injections but wasn’t able to score the pinfall. Steen rolled out of the ring to recover and when Lethal followed Steen won the ensuing brawl. Back in the ring Steen kept the pressure on his opponent, culminating in a match-ending Package Piledriver.

7. S.C.U.M. {0} (Jimmy Jacobs +0 [S.C.U.M. Interference] & Grizzly Redwood +3) vs. The Young Bucks {2} (Matt Jackson +4 & Nick Jackson+0 [X]) - 12:57

- Jacobs and Redwood isolated and beat up Matt Jackson for the first half of the match. Matt finally made the hot tag to his brother and The Young Bucks started to rally a comeback. Their momentum was cut off when Steve Corino got involved and clobbered Nick with a foreign object. The referee missed the interference and counted the subsequent pin attempt.

8. Tommaso Ciampa +3 vs. Homicide +5 [Ace Crusher] - 11:49

- Ciampa and Homicide left it all in the ring in this bloody Fight Without Honor.

The champion battled back, even going so far as to stab the challenger with a fork, before securing the pinfall with an Ace Crusher.

[Valenswift]

A couple of great shows and a good defence by Homicide. What’s going to happen between Bennett and Corino? This one’s getting wild.
