Dark Match: Vinny Marseglia def Will Ferrara. Corino came out during the match to protest and was kicked out.

Jay Briscoe comes out to start the show. He talks about being on the very first ROH show in February 2002 and building the company to where it is today. The fans chant “thank you champ!” in response. Jay then mentions defeating Kevin Steen at “Supercard of Honor VII” back in April to win the ROH World title. He asks Nigel why he stripped Jay of the title when he hurt his shoulder when Nigel defended the title when he had a torn bicep. He thinks him being stripped of the title is bullshit, although he knows Nigel is simply a messenger. He says when he comes back from his injury, he will be in line for a title shot. Until then, he has no problem handing the belt over to whomever wins the title if they win it like a man.

Opening Match: Jay Lethal vs. Silas Young

  1. Once again, we have a man that is both PWG and ROH Champion at the same time. They need to cross promote.
