He held up the title and requested the code of honor between the two.\u00a0 Sakai offered first and Klein shook, only to then clock Sakai in the head with her free fist.<\/p>\n<p>-Once the women left, Riccaboni and Cabana talked on camera about tonight&#8217;s two main events as well as Honor Club and various Festival Of Honor happenings from earlier in the afternoon.\u00a0 That&#8217;s it for the pre-show.\u00a0 The main card begins at 8:30 EST.<\/p>\n<h4>MAIN CARD<\/h4>\n<p>We opened with a video package featuring promos from many of the competitors on tonight&#8217;s card.\u00a0 This is the largest attendance in Ring Of Honor history tonight at nearly 6000 people.<\/p>\n<p>-In the locker room Cody cut another promo on Omega, reiterating some of the comments he made on TV last weekend.<\/p>\n<p><strong>(1) CHUCKIE T (w\/Beretta) vs. JONATHAN GRESHAM<\/strong><\/p><div id=\"pwtor-3758766290\" class=\"pwtor-content-1 pwtor-entity-placement\"><!-- Tag ID:

Reigns Supreme <\/em>in February but is returning to action here.\u00a0 Scientific wrestling exchanges through the first couple minutes.\u00a0 Chuck Taylor hit a tilt-a-whirl backbreaker.\u00a0 Taylor with another backbreaker.\u00a0 Gresham went for a suicide dive and basically flew right over Taylor, turned in the air, and essentially landed on his head on the floor.\u00a0 Taylor went to Irish whip Gresham into the ring post, Gresham reversed it, and Taylor ended up being whipped right into a hug from Beretta.\u00a0 Beretta&#8217;s left arm is in a cast due to an injury of his own.\u00a0 The commentators acknowledged that Taylor&#8217;s finisher (the piledriver) is banned in Louisiana and wondered what that would mean for his strategy.\u00a0 Gresham caught Taylor with an ankle lock but Taylor made it to the ropes.\u00a0 Knee to Gresham&#8217;s head and a falcon arrow got two for Taylor.\u00a0 They traded punches.\u00a0 Gresham with an enziguiri and stomped on Taylor&#8217;s knee.\u00a0 Soul Food from Taylor.\u00a0 Gresham with a springboard into a DDT.\u00a0 Taylor with an inside cradle.<\/p>\n<p>WINNER:\u00a0 Chuckie T in 8:33.<\/p>\n<p><em>(Pageot\u2019s Perspective: I&#8217;m beta-testing the new Honor Club channel for Roku but it would not let me log into the channel for this event due to the fact that I had previously been logged into Honor Club on ROHwrestling.com on my laptop earlier today.\u00a0 Hopefully that&#8217;s a bug they address, which should be as simple as noticing that the location is the same for both devices.\u00a0 Luckily I was able to log back into my account on my laptop and that loaded effortlessly with no streaming or quality problems.<\/em><\/p>\n<p><em>As for our opening contest, another surprising outcome in my books.\u00a0 Gresham seemed to be getting the start of a push before he went down with his injury whereas Chuckie&#8217;s done nothing since Beretta got injured.\u00a0 Maybe this is the start of something for him, though.\u00a0 He&#8217;s certainly popular in other promotions and treated like a bigger deal there than ROH has ever treated him.)<\/em><\/p>\n<p>-As Riccaboni and Cabana discussed the next mach a man in white makeup and luchador gear approached them from behind.\u00a0 He sprinkled something on their desk as they jumped back and were creeped out.\u00a0 The stranger skittered off.\u00a0 In a possibly related development, the lights went out, Martinez&#8217;s music played, and he stepped out of a coffin that was propped up on the stage while wearing a leather mask.<\/p>\n<p><strong>(2) PUNISHMENT MARTINEZ vs. RPW BRITISH HEAVYWEIGHT CHAMPION TOMOHIRO ISHII &#8211; NON-TITLE MATCH<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>The two men ran into each other with Martinez getting the better of it.\u00a0 Ishii hit a vertical suplex to applause.\u00a0 Ishii ended up at ringside and Martinez hit Journey Into Darkness that wiped out Ishii on the floor.\u00a0 Like Gresham Martinez also nearly landed on his head but he followed up with a springboard somersault onto Ishii.\u00a0 Back in the ring Martinez hit a spinning heel kick off the top rope for two.\u00a0 Martinez with a hurricanrana off the rope for another two.\u00a0 Ishii hit a German suplex.\u00a0 He landed a big super vertical suplex on Martinez sitting on the top rope.\u00a0 Ishii ran through Martinez with a clothesline for two.\u00a0 Martinez fought out of a brainbuster attempt.\u00a0 Ishii fought out of the chokeslam.\u00a0 Ripcord kick from Martinez and South of Heaven chokeslam.<\/p>\n<p>WINNER:\u00a0 Punishment Martinez in 8:12.<\/p>\n<p><em>(Pageot&#8217;s Perspective:\u00a0 Hard-hitting match.\u00a0 Ishii coming out with his title planted doubt in my mind that he would lose but they went with my original prediction of giving Martinez a big win to help rebuild him following his loss to Castle.\u00a0 I didn&#8217;t know what to make of the man at the commentary table after the previous match but I suspect now that he was related to Martinez.\u00a0 Possibly a new stable for Punishment?)<\/em><\/p>\n<p><strong>(3) HANGMAN PAGE vs. KOTA IBUSHI<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Fast-paced action with each man avoiding kicks.\u00a0 Page with a neckbreaker across the middle rope.\u00a0 He mounted Ibushi and unloaded with punches to loud boos.\u00a0 Riccaboni read my mind by pointing out how rare it is that he gets booed these days.\u00a0 Page with a flapjack and a fallaway slam into a bridging pin.\u00a0 Ibushi kicked out.\u00a0 Page ran the ropes and Ibushi caught him with a dropkick.\u00a0 Ibushi jumped onto Page&#8217;s shoulders for a frankensteiner that sent Page to the floor.\u00a0 Ibushi went for a springboard moonsault but Page cut him off and tossed him to the floor.\u00a0 Ibushi avoided a running shooting star press.\u00a0 Page ran Ibushi back first into the barricade.\u00a0 Page went for a moonsault off the barricade but Ibushi grabbed him off of the barricade and hit a snap German suplex on the floor.\u00a0 Page did a full rotation and basically landed on his face.\u00a0 That was nuts.\u00a0 But Ibushi followed it up with a huge running top rope moonsault that took out Page again on the floor.\u00a0 Ibushi rolled him into the ring for two.\u00a0 Page caught him with a package tombstone piledriver for two.\u00a0 Ibushi grabbed onto the ropes to avoid a Rite Of Passage.\u00a0 Ibushi went for a piledriver on the apron but Page countered into a back body drop.\u00a0 Page hit a big moonsault onto Ibushi on the floor and followed with his buckshot lariat in the ring for two.\u00a0 Series of roll-up exchanges for two-counts.\u00a0 Ibushi into a gutwrench German suplex for two.\u00a0 &#8220;Fight forever&#8221; chant from the crowd.\u00a0 They traded punches.\u00a0 Ibushi with the sit-out power bomb but Page barely kicked out.\u00a0 Golden Trigger for the win.<\/p>\n<p>WINNER:\u00a0 Kota Ibushi in 14:36.<\/p>\n<p><em>(Pageot&#8217;s Perspective:\u00a0 Hot, hot match as expected.\u00a0 Multiple big moments and a testament to Page and Cody&#8217;s recent work that Page was actually soundly booed here.\u00a0 I thought it would be much closer to a fifty-fifty split.\u00a0 Ibushi&#8217;s just such a popular star, though, and this was his first ROH match in nine and a half years.\u00a0 The reaction certainly bodes well for tonight&#8217;s main event.)<\/em><\/p>\n<p>-&#8220;The Scream Queen&#8221; Daffney (who you may remember from ROH, WCW, and TNA) was seated ringside to witness the crowning of the first ROH woman&#8217;s champion ever.<\/p>\n<p><strong>(4) &#8220;THE GATEKEEPER&#8221; KELLY KLEIN vs. SUMIE SAKAI \u2013 WOMEN OF HONOR CHAMPIONSHIP<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Riccaboni dubbed Klein the favorite here.\u00a0 Sakai attacked Klein before the match as retribution for Klein&#8217;s actions on the pre-show.\u00a0 She unloaded with a flurry of punches but Klein cut her off with a German suplex.\u00a0 Sakai got a roll-up for one.\u00a0 Klein dropped her throat-first across the rope.\u00a0 Klein threw Sakai into the barricade.\u00a0 Snap suplex from Klein on the floor and she locked in End Of The Match until referee Todd Sinclair forced her to break the hold.\u00a0 Klein tried for a fallaway slam from the top rope but Sakai escaped and hit a schoolgirl power bomb.\u00a0 Fallaway slam from Klein.\u00a0 Fisherwoman&#8217;s neckbreaker from Sakai.\u00a0 Another German from Klein.\u00a0 Tenille Dashwood, Stella Grey, Mandy Leon, Deonna Purrazzo, Karen Q, and other members of the WOH division made their way to ringside and joined Daffney to pound on the mat to encourage Sakai.\u00a0 She rallied against Klein but Klein put her down again with a kick.\u00a0 Klein with a northern lights suplex for two.\u00a0 Sakai with a fisherwoman&#8217;s suplex.\u00a0 Sakai missed a top rope moonsault but hit a DDT for the win.<\/p>\n<p>WINNER:\u00a0 Sumie Sakai in 7:38 to become the first Women Of Honor Champion.<\/p>\n<p>-The faces of the division entered the ring and hugged Sakai after the match as she held up her championship.<\/p>\n<p><em>(Pageot&#8217;s Perspective:\u00a0 The awkward finish deflated things considerably but, aside from that, this was a very shocking feel good victory.\u00a0 At 46 years old, wrestling for 21 years, the winner of the very first women&#8217;s match in ROH history way back in 2002, Sakai looks as good as any of the other women in the division and held her own throughout the tournament.\u00a0 \u00a0You would not believe that she was wrestling competitively when women like Purrazzo were still toddlers.\u00a0 They didn&#8217;t make as big of a deal about Klein being pinned for the first time in two years but maybe that&#8217;s something they&#8217;ll explore more on TV going forward.\u00a0 Assuming the women will finally be featured regularly on TV going forward, which is a big assumption.)<\/em><\/p>\n<p>-Shane Taylor

the pace is predictably intense.\u00a0 Sky went for a big flip over the ropes onto the Bucks but they held up a ladder for him to land back-first across to his dismay.\u00a0 Nick ran across the apron and kicked Matt by mistake.\u00a0 Daniels scaled the ladder but Matt cut him off.\u00a0 Matt was punched off but Nick took out Daniels.\u00a0 Sky entered and took out Nick.\u00a0 Gordon took out

him with a crossface in between the legs.\u00a0 Gordon ran up the ladder but Daniels batted him off with a ladder of his own.\u00a0 Nick climbed but Kaz threw a ladder at him that knocked him off.\u00a0 There were two referees watching the action but they were both safely far away from danger on the floor.\u00a0 Gordon with a springboard onto the ring post into a flip on the heels.\u00a0 Nick hopped from one ladder to another to another in the ring onto the ropes and onto the heels.\u00a0 The Bucks both climbed to the top of the ladder but were distracted by a bouquet of red balloons floating past them.<\/p>\n<p>The Kingdom appeared and beat down the Bucks.\u00a0 Gordon tried to make the save but took Rockstar Supernova.\u00a0 SoCal Uncensored hit the ring and faced off with The Kingdom.\u00a0 Taven seemed to gesture for Daniels to climb the ladder but The Kingdom turned on them as well.\u00a0 Taven flipped over the top rope onto Daniels on the floor.\u00a0 TK O&#8217;Ryan

impressed if they were able to top this one.\u00a0 The absence of Bully Ray was noteworthy as the commentators addressed it.\u00a0 The Kingdom showing up wasn&#8217;t a surprise but I like that they ran off with the titles.\u00a0 The post-match seemed to tease a face turn for SoCal Uncensored or maybe that was just due to the fact that the crowd was respectfully applauding all six

Mark&#8217;s redneck kung fu so Mark spit in his face.\u00a0 Lethal worked over Mark dropkicks.\u00a0 Things broke down with The Briscoes going after both men on the floor.\u00a0 Jay Briscoe worked over Lethal.\u00a0 Jay eventually took a suicide dive from Lethal on the floor.\u00a0 Tanahashi with a body slam and jumping elbow on Jay.\u00a0 The Briscoes worked over Tanahashi for a bit.\u00a0 Lethal made the hot tag.\u00a0 Top rope elbow drop was blocked by Jay.\u00a0 Figure four from Lethal on Jay.\u00a0 Tanahashi skinned the cat and tossed Mark to the floor.\u00a0 With Jay still in the

inclined to add that, including the pre-show, we are currently three and a half hours and nine matches into the show so far with another three matches still to go.\u00a0 We&#8217;ll be going past

arms.\u00a0 He reminded us that he expressed his interested in the ROH TV title at\u00a0<em>16th Anniversary\u00a0<\/em>last month.\u00a0 He claimed nobody ever responded to him so he&#8217;s reiterating his intent to the winner of this match.\u00a0 He headed over to join the commentary table.<\/p>\n<p>-Young carried two trash cans to the ring with him and immediately set up a folding table at ringside.\u00a0 King danced down to the ring empty-handed.<\/p>\n<p><strong>(7) KENNY KING vs. \u201cTHE LAST REAL MAN\u201d SILAS YOUNG \u2013 LAST MAN STANDING MATCH FOR THE ROH WORLD TELEVISION CHAMPIONSHIP<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Cabana was somewhat hostile toward Aries on commentary, seemingly being insulted on behalf of ROH that anyone would consider their prestigious television title just another belt to be collected.\u00a0 King locked in a submission on Young.\u00a0 He eventually broke it.\u00a0 As they fought near the ropes Young suddenly hoisted King up and back body dropped him over the ropes and through the table he&#8217;d set up on the floor earlier.\u00a0 Young whipped King into three barricades and told referee Todd Sinclair to begin counting.\u00a0 Interesting that it&#8217;s a 20-count count out in ROH but still a 10-count count down to win this match.\u00a0 Young manhandled King at ringside.\u00a0 He jawed with some fans in the front row.\u00a0 King hit a sidewalk slam on Young on the top turnbuckle.\u00a0 Blockbuster on the floor that took down Young but hurt King&#8217;s back in the process.\u00a0 Back rake from Young.\u00a0 Spinebuster from King.\u00a0 King looked for the Royal Flush but his back gave out.\u00a0 Young hit Misery on the apron and both men went down on the floor but stood up at 8.\u00a0 Young threw his two garbage cans into the ring along with a steel chair.\u00a0 He opened the chair and looked to suplex King across the seat but King blocked.\u00a0 King looked to hit Young with the folded-up chair but Young cut him off with trash can lid shots to the head.\u00a0 Young wedged the chair in the turnbuckles.\u00a0 King grabbed it and threw it to Young, who caught it, and then ate a kick to the chair.\u00a0 King hit a Royal Flush on Young onto a trash can.\u00a0 at a count of 9 Young rolled out of the ring, landing on his feet to break the count, before collapsing again.\u00a0 King went under the ring to find another table.\u00a0 He yelled at some cameramen to get out of his way.\u00a0 King set up the table, then stopped to play with the fans.\u00a0 King lay Young across the table on the floor and went up top.\u00a0 Beer City Bruiser ran out to stop him.<\/p>\n<p>King hit Bruiser with a trash can three times.\u00a0 Young returned to take out King.\u00a0 The commentators mentioned that they weren&#8217;t sure if King&#8217;s friends Coast 2 Coast were here tonight.\u00a0 They also still didn&#8217;t know where Bully Ray was.\u00a0 Aries swore he wasn&#8217;t leaving the commentary table.\u00a0 King pulled out a ladder and gave Young a belly to back suplex onto the ladder.\u00a0 Young wound up on the table at ringside again.\u00a0 King went up top again and landed a shooting star press on Young through the table.\u00a0 The commentators pointed out that we have never seen King pull out that move before.\u00a0 The crowd responded accordingly.\u00a0 King rolled off Young and ended up with his legs under the ring apron.\u00a0 Both men tried to get back to their feet.\u00a0 Young was dead but slowly pulled himself to a crouching position using the barricade.\u00a0 King struggled and kicked with his legs under the ring.\u00a0 He finally managed to pull his legs out but he had been zip-tied around the ankles by a grinning Bruiser who popped his head out from the apron.\u00a0 King couldn&#8217;t stand but Young did as Sinclair counted 10.<\/p>\n<p>WINNER:\u00a0 Silas Young in 16:04 to capture the TV title.<\/p>\n<p>-Post-match Bruiser and Young put the boots to King.\u00a0 Aries agreed that since the match was now over&#8230;\u00a0 He ran down to ringside and took out Bruiser and Young.\u00a0 Aries grabbed a chair in one hand and the ROH TV title in his other.\u00a0 He threw the belt at Young who stormed off with Bruiser in a fit.<\/p>\n<p><em>(Pageot&#8217;s Perspective:\u00a0 They were in a tough position being on the same card as the similar-style six-man match but Young and King did a nice job of standing out in their own right.\u00a0 It was one of those goofy finishes that some fans hated but I don&#8217;t mind it.\u00a0 Young as champion defending against people like Aries, Gordon, and Page could be a very promising summer for the TV title.)<\/em><\/p>\n<p>-We were scheduled to get a bonus tag match with Cheeseburger and Eli Isom teaming to take on The Dawgs (Rhett Titus &amp; Will Ferrara) but they jumped Burger and Isom before the bell and beat them both down including a ring post low blow to Isom and a chair shot to the leg.\u00a0 Bully Ray stormed the ring for his first appearance of the night.\u00a0 Cabana questioned Ray coming to save Eli Isom but not showing up at all during the rest of the card.\u00a0 Ray told off The Dawgs, then apologized to Cheesseburger.\u00a0 If Isom can&#8217;t compete and Cheeseburger can&#8217;t find another partner, the match will have to be off.\u00a0 Burger asked Ray to be his partner.\u00a0 &#8220;Last night you had your final moment, tonight have your final fight here.&#8221;\u00a0 Burger pointed out this is the biggest ROH crowd in history and pleaded that he needs this opportunity.\u00a0 Ray was hesitant.\u00a0 &#8220;One final fight!&#8221; Cheeseburger begged.\u00a0 Ray took off his jacket and hat and threw them to the floor.<\/p>\n<p><strong>(8)\u00a0 THE DAWGS (Rhett Titus &amp; Will Ferrara) vs. CHEESEBURGER &amp; BULLY RAY<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>The bell rang and Ray unloaded with punches on Titus.\u00a0 Little Willy wound up in the ring and took the Dudley shuffle punch.\u00a0 Cheeseburger hit the shotei palm strike on Ferrara.\u00a0 Titus took a body slam from Ray and Burger went up top.\u00a0 &#8220;Whasssuuuuup??&#8221;\u00a0 Cheeseburger hit the diving headbutt.\u00a0 Ray shoved Cheeseburger.\u00a0 &#8220;Get the tables!&#8221;\u00a0 Instead Ray suddenly chokeslammed Cheeseburger.\u00a0 Groan.<\/p>\n<p>WINNERS:\u00a0 No contest in 2:10.<\/p>\n<p>-Ray grabbed a mic.\u00a0 &#8220;Who the hell do you think you are?\u00a0 How dare you, little pissant, put me on the spot?\u00a0 You are what&#8217;s wrong with the wrestling business, you and all of your kind.\u00a0 Your entire generation.\u00a0 You&#8217;re selfish, you&#8217;re spoiled, you&#8217;re entitled.\u00a0 You think this is all about you.\u00a0 Guys like you, guys like Will Ospreay, guys like Flip Gordon, guys like that nobody Ricochet.\u00a0 You&#8217;re all the same.\u00a0 You have destroyed the wrestling industry.\u00a0 You don&#8217;t belong here.&#8221;\u00a0 ROH COO Joe Koff walked down to the ring.\u00a0 Ray goaded him and asked what he was going to do.\u00a0 &#8220;You put me in this position.\u00a0 This is the reason the wrestling business sucks.\u00a0 Because you sign guys like this.&#8221;\u00a0 Ray said Koff wasn&#8217;t going to do anything.\u00a0 Flip Gordon ran down.\u00a0 Ray set up Cheeseburger for a piledriver and threatened Gordon not to set foot in the ring.\u00a0 Ray said he would break Cheeseburger&#8217;s neck and the Louisiana State Commission would shut down the show immediately.\u00a0 &#8220;I&#8217;m a veteran, you&#8217;re a nobody!&#8221;\u00a0 He held up his WWE Hall Of Fame ring in the face of Koff and Gordon.\u00a0 &#8220;Do you know who I am?\u00a0 I&#8217;m a WWE Hall Of Famer.\u00a0 I don&#8217;t need you.&#8221;\u00a0 He power bombed Cheeseburger and took off up the ramp.<\/p>\n<p><em>(Pageot&#8217;s Perspective:\u00a0 A lot to unpack there.\u00a0 I predicted Ray turning heel in my preview column but I thought it would be a light heel authority figure turn.\u00a0 This was much more significant.\u00a0 He tore into the young &#8220;spot monkeys&#8221;, told off his boss Joe Koff, and potentially set up a series of feuds with young talent if he intends to continue wrestling, which I guess he does as it would make zero sense for Koff to let him stay as enforcer after this.\u00a0 A very unexpected development, potentially positive depending on how this plays out.)<\/em><\/p>\n<p>-Cody vs. Omega is not the final match in another surprising development.\u00a0 Cody wore a gold eye patch and black and gold ensemble.\u00a0 Brandi was dressed in all gold.\u00a0 They were accompanied by Bury&#8217;s replacement bear.<\/p>\n<p><strong>(9) CODY (w\/Brandi Rhodes &amp; Bernard The Business Bear) vs. &#8220;THE CLEANER&#8221; KENNY OMEGA<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>As soon as the bell rang the fans chanted &#8220;holy shit!&#8221;\u00a0 Everyone was on their feet.\u00a0 They just stared at each other for the first minute and a half.\u00a0 Cody with a shoulder block.\u00a0 Omega with a running boot that sent Cody to the floor.\u00a0 Omega with a dropkick to knock Cody off the apron.\u00a0 Rise Of The Terminator but Bernard tripped Omega as he ran the ropes.\u00a0 A huge dropkick through the ropes took out Bernard and knocked his head off but we couldn&#8217;t get a look at who was in the mascot costume.\u00a0 The referee sent the unidentified man to the back.\u00a0 Cody jumped Omega and threw him back in the ring.\u00a0 Cody with a release suplex to Omega.\u00a0 Cody did push-ups while Omega winced on the mat.\u00a0 Cody with a cartwheel and a body shot to Omega in the corner.\u00a0 He set Omega up for his brother&#8217;s Shattered Dreams and even did the Goldust chest rub only to stop and give the fans the finger instead.\u00a0 Cody caught a hurricanrana attempt from Omega with a power bomb.\u00a0 Indian deathlock on Omega.\u00a0 Omega made it to the ropes right in front of Brandi, who slapped him.\u00a0 Cody kicked out Omega&#8217;s knee and hit a chop block.\u00a0 Brandi threw a foreign object to Cody right in front of the ref.\u00a0 As the ref grabbed it and threw it to ringside, Cody kicked Omega between the legs.\u00a0 As Cody and the ref bickered, Brandi punted Omega in the stomach on the floor.\u00a0 She followed up by walking across Omega&#8217;s back but the referee saw it and threatened to send her to the back too.<\/p>\n<p>Cody ran Omega into the guard rail.\u00a0 Body slam on the floor.\u00a0 A fan asked for a too sweet so Cody gave him the finger.\u00a0 Omega tried to fight back but got ran head first into a chair.\u00a0 Cody bickered with some obnoxious fans, stole one of their drinks, took a sip, and spit it on them.\u00a0 The rest of the arena chanted &#8220;Cody&#8221; in appreciation.\u00a0 Cody and Omega traded blows in the ring.\u00a0 Omega unloaded with chops.\u00a0 Cody pulled out his brother&#8217;s drop to the mat uppercut.\u00a0 Omega with a top rope crossbody but Cody rolled through for two.\u00a0 Ax handles from Omega.\u00a0 Moonsault but Cody got his knees up.\u00a0 Jumping frankensteiner took down Cody and sent him to the floor.\u00a0 The Terminator Rises again and a jumping flip over the ropes that took out Cody.\u00a0 Leapfrog bulldog in the ring.\u00a0 Crosslegged brainbuster on Cody.\u00a0 V-Trigger to Cody.\u00a0 Cody escaped the one-winged angel.\u00a0 Dragon Rush to Cody.\u00a0 And a second.\u00a0 Cody blocked a third and hit a Beautiful Disaster kick for two.\u00a0 Omega blocked a CrossRhodes attempt.\u00a0 Jumping knee on Cody in the corner.\u00a0 He lifted Cody up on his shoulders but Cody escaped and turned it into a figure four.\u00a0 Omega struggled in the hold for a long, long time.\u00a0 He eventually rolled over and Cody immediately broke the hold.<\/p>\n<p>Cody hit a dragon-screw leg whip around the second rope.\u00a0 He pulled a table out from under the ring and set it up at the foot of the entrance ramp.\u00a0 Omega was on the apron when Cody looked for a CrossRhodes through the table.\u00a0 Omega fought out.\u00a0 Cody tried for a piledriver instead.\u00a0 Omega fought back again.\u00a0 Omega looked for Dragon Rush and hit it on the apron, avoiding the table.\u00a0 Both men were down on the floor but Omega reached his feet first.\u00a0 With the table set up on its side, Cody dropped Omega ribs first across the sharp side.\u00a0 Cody kicked the ring announcer and time keeper out of their table and cleared it.\u00a0 He threw Omega into the ring again and hit a springboard dropkick.\u00a0 Alabama Slam care of his former tag partner Hardcore Holly.\u00a0 Brandi helped him relocate the second table to the foot of the entrance ramp again.\u00a0 It gave Omega time to recover slightly.\u00a0 They traded chops.\u00a0 Cody caught Omega with a Dragon Rush of his own.\u00a0 Omega came right back with a v-trigger on the ropes.\u00a0 Inverted hurricanrana planted Cody on his head.\u00a0 Brandi climbed on the apron for a distraction.\u00a0 Cody attempted to capitalize, Omega took over, v-trigger attempt, Cody moved, and Brandi was v-triggered off the apron and through the table on the floor.<\/p>\n<p>Omega checked on Brandi in despair at the accident.\u00a0 Cody took advantage to hit CrossRhodes.\u00a0 Omega kicked out at two and three-quarters.\u00a0 Flip Gordon came out to help carry Brandi to the back.\u00a0 (He&#8217;s just a good guy, okay?\u00a0 That&#8217;s all.\u00a0 He helped Cheeseburger too!\u00a0 It doesn&#8217;t mean anything.)\u00a0 Cody and Omega wound up on the top rope with Omega taking a standing superplex.\u00a0 &#8220;This is awesome&#8221; chant.\u00a0 Cody took off his belt and whipped Omega with it.\u00a0 Cody with a top rope moonsault but Omega moved.\u00a0 Omega fired up in the corner.\u00a0 V-Trigger point blank.\u00a0 And another.\u00a0 Finger guns but Cody shoved the referee in Omega&#8217;s path.\u00a0 Cody went for an eye rake but Omega blocked.\u00a0 Third v-trigger and a running fourth.\u00a0 Cody kicked out just before three.\u00a0 V-trigger again with Cody in the ropes.\u00a0 Cody up for one-winged angel but he countered into a vertebreaker for two.\u00a0 Cody did a throat slash and looked for CrossRhodes again.\u00a0 Omega countered and referee Paul Turner got sandwiched in the corner and went down.\u00a0 Both men ran the ropes and went for a crossbody at the same time.\u00a0 Cody and Omega collided in the air and all three men were down.<\/p>\n<p>The Young Bucks made their way down to the ring with a\u00a0<em>Being The Elite\u00a0<\/em>camera man following behind.\u00a0 They entered the ring and talked quietly to each other before looking at Cody and Omega.\u00a0 They sized up both men for superkicks.\u00a0 They decided to go after Cody but he ducked and Matt and Nick took out Omega by accident.\u00a0 Cody with CrossRhodes while they watched in anguish.\u00a0 The referee slowly came to and groggily counted one&#8230; two&#8230; three.<\/p>\n<p>WINNER:\u00a0 Cody in 37:15.<\/p>\n<p>-Post-match Cody celebrated and left.\u00a0 The Bucks apologized to Omega and tried to explain what happened.\u00a0 He was enraged and blew them off as the fans chanted &#8220;you fucked up.&#8221;\u00a0 Omega staggered off through the crowd with the aid of a crew member as Matt and Nick looked heartbroken with themselves.<\/p>\n<p><em>(Pageot&#8217;s Perspective:\u00a0 Whew.\u00a0 That was exhausting in the best way possible.\u00a0 If Cody&#8217;s not the top heel in all of wrestling I&#8217;m open to suggestions as to who is but no one else comes to mind.\u00a0 He pulled out every single trick he could think of here tonight and the 37 minutes actually flew by.\u00a0 Of course Omega is one of the best wrestlers on the planet.\u00a0 Nothing new I can add there.\u00a0 The final finish was fun.\u00a0 After months of uncertainty Matt and Nick finally chose a side, only for another misunderstanding to plague them.\u00a0 None of this really had anything to do with the kissing\/queerbaiting layers that were added in the last month and a half but maybe they&#8217;re trying to forget about that aspect of it due to the overwhelmingly negative response from fans.\u00a0 Also no resolution as to who the leader of Bullet Club is but we&#8217;re not done yet.)<\/em><\/p>\n<p>-Castle received pyro and extra boys in addition to Brandon and Brent for his ramp entrance.\u00a0 The others stayed behind but the usual two accompanied him to the ring.\u00a0 NWA World Heavyweight Champion Nick Aldis was shown sitting in the front row.<\/p>\n<p><strong>(10) DALTON CASTLE (w\/The Boys) vs. \u201cTHE VILLAIN\u201d MARTY SCURLL \u2013 ROH WORLD CHAMPIONSHIP<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Lock-up.\u00a0 Castle driven into the corner.\u00a0 \u00a0Castle reached into his trunks, felt around, and pulled out a middle finger for Scurll.\u00a0 Scurll grabbed a gold umbrella from ringside and jumped into the ring in a rage but he let referee Todd Sinclair talk him out of using it.\u00a0 Castle with a take down.\u00a0 They ended up at ringside and Castle took a body slam on the floor, which gave him a nosebleed.\u00a0 Scurll chased away the boys.\u00a0 In the ring they fought back and forth.\u00a0 Castle eventually found his arm yanked down and across the top rope.\u00a0 Castle caught Scurll with a back elbow, a knee, and a hip toss.\u00a0 Judo throws from Castle.\u00a0 Scurll dumped him to the floor but Castle pulled him out of the ring and hit a deadlift German suplex on the floor.\u00a0 Scurll shoved Castle into the barricade and hit a tilt-a-whirl DDT on the floor.\u00a0 He tried another in the ring but Castle countered into bang-a-rang position, which Scurll countered into a pin attempt.\u00a0 Castle with a series of high knees.\u00a0 Scurll with a superplex.\u00a0 Kick to the face off the apron.\u00a0 They fought up the entrance ramp and Castle took a back body drop onto the entrance steps.\u00a0 Scurll with a Ghostbuster back in the ring for two.\u00a0 They fought on the floor again and wound up right in front of Aldis, who moved back to a chair in the second row.\u00a0 In the process he dropped some sort of pliers or scissors to Scurll.<\/p>\n<p>Scurll re-entered the ring with the tool and cut off a turnbuckle behind Todd Sinclair&#8217;s back.\u00a0 The camera cut to Aldis multiple times as he looked on.\u00a0 Scurll tried to run Castle into the exposed turnbuckle but Castle fought back.\u00a0 Castle with another deadlift German suplex for two.\u00a0 They wound up in the corner with the exposed turnbuckle.\u00a0 Castle tried for a German superplex but Scurll low blowed Castle and hit another kick to the back of the head.\u00a0 Castle kicked out at two.\u00a0 Scurll went to the floor and fidgeted under the ring for a long time, looking for something.\u00a0 He couldn&#8217;t find it and appeared frustrated.\u00a0 Castle cut him off and threw Scurll into the guard rail.\u00a0 Scurll threw him back in the ring and kept looking under the ring.\u00a0 He finally found his bag of flour and brought it into the ring.\u00a0 Castle kicked his fists of flour into his own face.\u00a0 A blinded Scurll grabbed referee Sinclair, thinking it was Castle, and snapped his fingers.\u00a0 Castle hit bang-a-rang.\u00a0 Sinclair counted one and screamed in pain at his injured hands hitting the mat.\u00a0 He couldn&#8217;t finish the count and rolled to the floor.\u00a0 Scurll grabbed his gold umbrella and unloaded with multiple strikes on Castle and both Boys.\u00a0 Scurll with a brainbuster but there was no referee.\u00a0 Referee Paul Turner ran out and counted two (despite presumably seeing everything that just happened from backstage).\u00a0 Castle kicked out.<\/p>\n<p>Scurll called for the chicken-wing.\u00a0 Castle peacocked.\u00a0 Back elbow, forearm, saito suplex.\u00a0 Scurll with an uppercut and the chicken-wing in the middle of the ring.\u00a0 Castle rolled through, got to his feet, and dropped back onto Scurll to break the hold.\u00a0 Scurll sat up and locked in the chicken-wing again.\u00a0 Castle fought to the ropes.\u00a0 Scurll broke the hold and snapped Castle&#8217;s hand.\u00a0 Scurll stomped on Castle&#8217;s hand, head, and shoulder.\u00a0 He jumped up and down on Castle&#8217;s head, went for the chicken-wing again, but Castle rolled through for two.\u00a0 Superkicks from Scurll but he then ran right into bang-a-rang from a pissed off Castle.<\/p>\n<p>WINNER:\u00a0 Dalton Castle in 31:37 to retain the world title.<\/p>\n<p><em>(Pageot&#8217;s Perspective:\u00a0 I&#8217;m not sure why but I hated all of the heel tactics here whereas I really appreciated Cody&#8217;s work in the previous match.\u00a0 Maybe it&#8217;s just the stupidity of the flour being everywhere and a second referee coming out and being allowed to count the pinfall.\u00a0 Cody&#8217;s low blows and Brandi involvement were believable because they happened behind the referee&#8217;s back and there was no evidence.\u00a0 Scurll&#8217;s tactics were blatant and right in everyone&#8217;s sight-line\u00a0so it just makes ROH management and their referees look incompetent for running out to count a pin fall following multiple umbrella shots that every person in the building saw.<\/em><\/p>\n<p><em>I&#8217;m normally always in favor of the top championship going on last but I have to admit Cody\/Omega was the hotter of these two matches tonight and probably should have headlined.\u00a0 There just wasn&#8217;t much backstory or interaction between Castle and Scurll prior to this match, certainly not enough to get people as heated and invested as they were in the aforementioned match.\u00a0 This is two big events in a row where Castle&#8217;s entered with a flat feud and his title reign is hurting because of it.<\/em><\/p>\n<p><em>I don&#8217;t know.\u00a0 Maybe I&#8217;m being unfairly harsh because I&#8217;m so tired.\u00a0 We went off the air at 1:12 a.m. EST after nearly six hours and 13 matches.\u00a0 On the night before WrestleMania.\u00a0 I understand wanting to showcase your entire roster on a weekend like this, especially in front of the largest crowd in ROH history, but there&#8217;s a limit.\u00a0 I&#8217;m a pretty huge ROH fan (hence my writing this report) and I found myself aching by the intermission and wishing this show was an hour or two shorter.\u00a0 Instead of being excited and pumped to see Castle vs. Scurll all I was feeling was restless by that point.\u00a0 Also, it may have been unfair expectations, but I think with the long build to Cody vs. Omega and with it being WrestleMania weekend a lot of people were expecting a big Bullet Club development and a defining start to the next chapter.\u00a0 Alas there were no answers provided about who&#8217;s in charge now, new members, exits, or where we go from here.\u00a0 In fact Aries-Young and SoCal-Kingdom are the only clear feuds coming out of tonight.)<\/em><\/p>\n<hr \/>\n<p><em>Find Harley on Twitter <a
