Welcome to a very special edition of Honorable Mention – the once-weekly Ring of Honor breakdown exclusively available at Daily Wrestling News. Wait a tick. This isn't Daily Wrestling News, this is Cheap-Heat! What's going on here? It's like when Vince McMahon hosted ECW talent on Monday Night Raw in 1997; Cheap-Heat patrons get something special, and Daily Wrestling News gets a little promotion. It's win/win. So without further ado, let's blast off into this week's 2-match show from the Meyer's Pavilion in Baltimore.
This is a star-studded event with just two bouts—both of which for championship gold, however. The opening contest features the Ring of Honor World Tag Team Champions the Addiction, as they defend against the Young Bucks. It's Ring of Honor versus New Japan; it's experience versus youth; it's the Knights of the Red Dawn versus the Bullet Club . The Young Bucks get an early advantage over the champions, but Chris Sabin—who's conveniently located at ringside—pulls his friend from the action, in an attempt to save the titles. The referee immediately ejects Sabin from ringside, but not before the Young Bucks send him packing with a Super Kick. The �Bucks deliver another kick to Daniels, but Kazarian breaks up the monotony with a tornado DDT into the first commercial break. When we return, the Addiction is doing a number on Matt Jackson, who manages to squeeze from a body lock with an impressive corkscrew attack, and makes the hot tag.
The Young Bucks are in the lead, using their quickness to cut their opponents down to size. It's no use, as the first available pin attempt is broken up by Kazarian. Kaz eats a Super Kick—that's three so far, if you're keeping track. A fourth to the face of Daniels following an attempted "Best Moonsault Ever. Daniels hits a suicide dive on Nick Jackson on the outside, but the Kingdom makes the presence felt when they blindside Daniels. Inside the ring, the �Bucks are preparing to deliver an IndyTaker to Kazarian, but opts to go the opposite way—landing a moonsault on the Kingdom and Daniels. After a successful IndyTaker, the �Bucks go for the pin, but the Kingdom pulls the official from the match. Daniels uses the distraction as an opening, and hits Nick Jackson across the skull with the championship belt. Maria distracts Matt Jackson, and Frankie Kazarian gets the pin with a roll up. The Addiction are still Ring of Honor World Tag Team Champions.
After the match, we see ROH Matchmaker Nigel McGuinness, who says the outcome of the previous bout doesn't work for him. Therefore, Nigel says, the Young Bucks will be added to the championship match at All Star Extravaganza . On October 18 th it'll be the Addiction vs. the Kingdom vs. the Young Bucks. I'm really excited for this year's All Star Extravaganza. Certain people might scoff at a Friday night pay-per-view when the designated night for wrestling has always been Sunday. But WrestleMania 2 was on a Monday. And boxing and UFC fights go down on Saturday all the time. I say if Ring of Honor wants to differentiate itself by promoting shows on a different day of the week, more power to them. And hey—this isn't the first Friday night show they've done—there must be some magic glue inside those gentle walls. That's from the Family Matters theme song.
It's time for the main event. If it seems soon, remember that this is a world championship match, and the last time these competitors squared off, they went to a one-hour time limit. So it's probably smart to give them as much time as necessary. Both men adhere to the " Code of Honor, " but refused to relinquish the other man's hand. Jay Lethal is such an interesting personality; "a character babyface," as JR would say. There's nothing inherently evil about Jay Lethal, who doesn't really cheat to win, and very rarely attacks someone from behind. Jay is like Keanu Reeves in "The Devil's Advocate." Too much? Okay, let's move on. But seriously, go watch the "The Devil's Advocate"—it's fucking BONKERS: "I've got my hand up Mona Lisa's skirt!" Okay seriously, I should talk about the match, right?
Once things get underway this match turns into an all-out brawl with both men using whatever kind of offense they can muster. After a quick commercial, we return to find them still at odds, but now on the outside of the ring. Strong attacks Lethal's underlings—Jay Diesel and Donavan Dijak—but gets kicked in the face by Lethal in the process. Strong is juicing. If you're wondering if there's juice in this match—there's juice. Roddy gets hardwayed, and Lethal follows up with a sleeper hold—as if to pump all of Strong's blood out of his face. Strong makes his comeback when Dijak and the rest of the goons on the outside decide to get involved again; Strong uses the distraction and comes back with nearly 2 dozen vicious chops to the chest of Jay Lethal. Roddy hits Jay with a slam, but can only manage a 2-count as Jay returns to his very own Lethal Combination for the same count of two. Strong counters the Lethal Injection with a Sick Kick as we head into the final break of the night. We return and Jay Lethal is choking Roderick Strong with his wrist tape. The referee takes the tape, giving Lethal the chance to hit Strong with his title belt. There seems to be a lot of that going on tonight. After two Lethal Injections , Jay Lethal remains the undisputed Ring of Honor Champion, as he'll walk out of Baltimore with both belts once again.

Welcome back to my once-quarterly coverage of Ring of Honor pay-per-view events. This is an interesting time for ROH as the perpetual third-party brand is finally available to fans nationwide. We just witnessed the third week of programming on Destination America, which just so happened to be a go-home show for their biggest event of the summer. I had mixed feelings heading into this show, as a number of matches on the card seemed rather forced . There were certainly a few slower-paced bouts, but nothing stood out as BAD . In fact, this was a pretty stellar show from top to bottom.
Donovan Dijak w/ Truth Martini vs. Mark Briscoe w/ ODB
The opening match tonight is a one-on-one preliminary bout between members of the Briscoe Clan and the House of Truth. Donovan Dijak is going head to head with Mark Briscoe, who comes to the ring with ODB. This is a fun match from start to finish, and really set the pace for things to come. I feel that people are down on Donovan Dijak for no reason; he's a rookie with very little time in the ring under his belt. That being said, I think he's pretty darn impressive, and works perfectly as part of Truth Martini's stable. My favorite part of the match was when ODB captured the valuable "Book of Truth" and tore it to shreds! The match was over when Mark Briscoe leapt from the top rope, taking out Dijak with a flying elbow. Mark Briscoe is your winner.
Winner: Mark Briscoe
Rating: 3 Stars ***
The Decade w/ Colby Corino vs. ACH and Matt Sydal
Our next contest is a tag team grudge match pitting the evilly egotistical Decade against the fan favorite duo of ACH and Matt Sydal. ACH has been feuding with BJ Whitmer and Adam Page for a number of weeks—maybe even months at this point—and Matt Sydal seems to be along for the ride. As always, the Decade is accompanied to the ring by King Steve Corino's son Colby, who holds his team's towel and a bucket of ice water. This is a fast-paced throw down wherein styles aren't so much meshing, as they are evolving to create a strong-style of sports entertainment. BJ Whitmer is a sadistic man who earns the ire of the New York crowd, and even prompts them to chant "Fuck You Whitmer." The Decade gets the pinfall thanks to Adam Page and an interruption by Colby Corino. Your winners are BJ Whitmer and Adam Page, but this rivalry is far from over.
Winner: The Decade
Rating: 3.25 Stars ***1/4
Dalton Castle vs. Silas Young
This was the match I was most looking forward to on the entire card, if you can believe that. I absolutely adore the Dalton Castle character, and have always had an affinity for Silas Young as well. Silas is the cigarette smoking nephew of Stan Hanson, whereas Dalton is an ambiguously eccentric showman who hits the ring wearing a "Freddie Mercury" jump suit, flocked by his "boys." Silas controls the pace of the match from the get-go, putting the relative newcomer through the ringer. Silas offered his hand in the "Code of Conduct," but Castle refused, presenting his hand for kiss instead. Silas gets a warm ovation from the audience despite his regular role as a heel. Castle comes back toward the tail end of the match by employing his amateur background, much to the surprise of Silas Young. He hits Silas with the Deadlift German Suplex for a near fall, sending the crowd into a frenzy! Silas gets angry with referee Todd Sinclair, and shoves him into the corner. Dalton takes advantage and rolls the veteran up with a school boy to earn an impressive victory. Your winner is Dalton Castle!
Winner: Dalton Castle
Rating: 2.5 Stars **1/2
War Machine vs. C and C Wrestling Factory
Cedric Alexander is coming into the match after earning a huge victory over the previously undefeated Moose on ROH TV. Tonight Cedric reforms C and C Wrestling Factory with Caprice Coleman to take on the dominant duo of Warbeard Hanson and Raymond Row—War Machine. Cedric defeated Moose on television this week after introducing a wrench to his opponents skull, and tried to pick up another win the same way. However Caprice Coleman was less enthused to take the low road and refused to act on Cedric's idea. War Machine was able to take advantage and pick up a win within mere moments. After the match, Cedric wrestled with whether or not to strike his partner, but decided against it. He stood across from Caprice and told him, "You and me? It's over." Cedric left Caprice in the ring. Your winners are War Machine!
Winner: War Machine

Number One Contender's Match
Michael Elgin vs. Moose vs. Roderick Strong
Moose gets a Wrestlemania entrance along with cheerleaders and football-inspired entrance gear. Admittedly—I was streaming this show illegally. And when you do things like that, it's only a matter of time before you're bit in the ass. Or at the very least, you witness somebody biting somebody else's ass. I was streaming the show and immediately following the introductions, the stream cut away to some of the most hardcore gay porn you've ever seen. Or maybe not, it really depends on what kind of gay porn you're
use
to watching, I guess. When the problem was fixed, this match was well underway and Roddy Strong was in firm control. He hit Moose with a sidewalk slam from the top rope and hit him with a double knee gut buster for a near fall. Roddy was moving at a hundred miles-per-hour, and took home the win after hitting Moose with two jumping knees and a SICK KICK! Roddy Strong wins, but the action is far from finished. Following the bell, Cedric Alexander returned and attacked Moose, claiming this was his match, and that he's the only person that matters.
Winner: Roderick Strong
Rating: 3.25 Stars ***1/4
The Bullet Club vs. The Kingdom
The following contest is a six man tag team match featuring two of the most popular stables in the world. In one corner are the current IWGP tag team champions Matt Taven and Michael Bennet, alongside the former ROH World Champion Adam Cole. Their opponents are the highly decorated threesome of the Young Bucks and AJ Styles. Before the match can begin, both teams approach one another as if to engage in the "Code of Conduct," but the BC crotch chops, and the Kingdom hold up four fingers, signifying their four-person team including Maria Kanellis. Right off the bat this is perhaps the most enjoyable match of the night, and why wouldn't it be? AJ Styles is currently the IWGP champion, as well as the UK Heavyweight title holder, and his partners are the guys that made Super Kicks cool again. And the Kingdom? Matt Taven is a former world TV champion, Michael Bennett is a highly accomplished mat-technician, and Adam Cole is destined for NXT greatness. Back and forth the momentum shifts as both teams employ their signature spots including more kicks to the face than I could begin to count. The match took a turn for the Bullet Club when the �Bucks hit the Double Meltzer Driver, and even dragged Maria into the match. AJ hit Cole with "Bloody Sunday" for what was presumed to be the finale, but the Kingdom refused to give up! The fans chanted: "This is Wrestling," along with the incredible athleticism on the stage. Adam Cole was along in the ring with the Bullet Club, and it was only a matter of time before the end was at hand. The Young Bucks performed another beautiful Meltzer Driver on Cole, followed by a "Styles Clash" by AJ, earning the pinfall victory and bragging rights for the Bullet Club.
Winner: The Bullet Club
Rating: 3.75 Stars ***3/4
No Disqualification Tag Team Match
ROH World Tag Team Titles
The Addiction (c) vs. reDRagon
This is a bona fied grudge match between two teams that despise one another. The Addiction defeated reDRagon for their world titles just a few months ago when they were revealed to be two-thirds of the mysterious "Knights of the Red Dawn." Kyle O'Reilly received an opportunity at the titles by himself when Bobby Fish was unfit for competition, but this is their first official rematch since the title switch. Things are off to a hard-hitting start and all four men waste no time in leaving the ring for greener pastures—IE the narrow entry way and the unforgiving ring side area. The "Fallen Angel" Christopher Daniels is rocking a brand new wardrobe tonight; from his Gestapo-inspired entrance attire to an all-black singlet, Christopher Daniels is feeling rather festive tonight. This is most certainly a no disqualification match, as nobody hesitates in regards to turning up the heat on the competition. Frankie Kazarian gets backdropped from the entry way onto the floor, earning a boisterous "Holy Shit" from the New Yorkers in attendance. ReDRagon is on fire; Bobby Fish puts both members of the Addiction in one chair on the outside and holds another steel chair in front of them. Kyle O'Reilly heads to the apron and runs toward the Addiction, hitting the Double Foot Stomp on the chair, and into Daniels and Kaz. ReDRagon is far more sadistic than we've seen in recent years, but that's in response to their inordinate opponents. The Addiction has a plan however. They tape Bobby Fish to the middle rope with a roll of white wrist tape, and lay into him with a punishing assault. They set their sights on Kyle O'Reilly, and this match is all but finished. That's when O'Reilly summoned the strength to apply the Triangle Choke, breaking the Addiction's momentum and allowing for an opportune opening. This match teetered from side-to-side with both team's earning the right to be called champion, but in the end, only two men would walk away with the titles. Frankie Kazarian successfully hits "Celebrity Rehab," following a distraction by fellow KRD member Chris Sabin. Kazarian gets the 1-2-3 ; your winners and still world tag team champions, the Addiction.
Winner: The Addiction
Rating: 4 Stars ****
World Championship vs. Television Championship
Jay Briscoe (World Champ) vs. Jay Lethal (TV Champ)
This show was in many ways a "one match show," where fans were excited to see a card of carnage, but were most intrigued by the main event. The pomp and circumstance associated with this match is unequalled by previous bouts, save for Christopher Daniel's SS uniform. Jay Lethal is escorted by the entire House of Truth, including Truth Martini who has a brand new "Book of Truth," with a shimmering white cover. Jay Briscoe gets an enormous ovation and the fans battle Briscoe chants against Lethal for nearly five minutes after the bell. Both men's parents are in attendance; Jay's mom and dad made the quick trip from Elizabeth New Jersey, whereas "Papa Briscoe" drove up from Sandy Fork, Delaware. This match has everything I want as a wrestling fan. The athleticism is truly main event caliber, and the story being told couldn't be any more personal if it needed to be. Referee Todd Sinclair, who's been on a hot streak tonight, sends Truth's cronies back to the locker room after Dijak gets involved early on. Jay Briscoe might not be my favorite wrestler in the world, but he's looking pretty darn good in this match. Lethal is undoubtedly more marketable, so it would seem almost inevitable that a now-nationwide company would hand the ball to someone such as "Black Machismo." Especially if he truly is the "Greatest First Generation Wrestler Ever." This is an awesome match, that could take the cake for "Match of the Night," but I think the Addiction and reDRagon might give the champs a run for their money. This was a seesaw-style contest, which allowed for both men to wow the crowd, and earn their share of adoration in the process. I like Jay Briscoe when he wears pants instead of shorts, and when he's completely bald instead of all stubbly. He looked like a real champion tonight, and despite my affinity for Jay Lethal, I was fully supportive of Briscoe's efforts. Briscoe locks Lethal in a dangerous submission hold, and nobody is louder than Lethal's dad at ringside! He slams his hand against the barricade, screaming for his son to regain his composure! Back and forth, both men have an equal shot of walking out of New York City with TWO championships! TWO titles! That's unprecedented within the confines of Ring of Honor Wrestling, and yet somebody is going to do it once the bell rings. Nigel McGuinness—who always sits ringside for the main event matches—grew tired of Truth Martini's interference, and as head match maker, kicked him out of the arena! This distraction gave the world champion an opening to delivery the "Jay Driller" to the world television champion through a table from the apron. They returned to the ring by the 18-count from senior official Todd Sinclair, and this match continued. Jay Briscoe hit the Jay Driller! Jay Briscoe hit the RAIN MAKER! But Jay Lethal refused to quit! The fans, who might otherwise loathe Lethal, cheered with all their might for both men—knowing full well that their New York accents would be hoarse the next morning. Jay Lethal rallied on account of the support and hit the Lethal Injection—for a TWO COUNT! Jay Lethal struggled to hit Briscoe with his own finishing move, but couldn't quite get it. Briscoe hit Lethal with a sunset flip, but Lethal was ready and delivered THE JAY DRILLER to the innovator of the move himself. Lethal smiled and ran toward the ropes, hit the springboard and came back for another successful LETHAL INJECTION! Jay Lethal pinned Jay Briscoe for the one, two—THREE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Jay Lethal becomes the Ring of Honor World Champion for the first time in his life, and even shakes hands with Jay Briscoe following the match. Lethal fell to his knees with tears in his eyes as his parents cheered from ringside and the audience chanted: "You deserve it!"
Winner: Jay Lethal

Welcome back to another edition of "Honorable Mention," the once-weekly Ring of Honor report exclusively available at Cheap-Heat.com. My name is Mark Adam Haggerty and I am pleased as punch to be here just two days shy of Ring of Honor "Best in the World" live on pay-per-view. This was an excellent hour of professional wrestling and finally hit the crescendo that we ROH fans have been anticipating for three weeks.
This week's show comes to us from the Tedreeve Arena in Toronto, Canada with Kevin Kelly and Steve Corino calling the action. There's another Corino in the arena! It's Steve's son Colby, who accompanies the Decade's BJ Whitmer and Adam Page to the ring for their match against War Machine. Colby fell victim to the menacing Moose just a few weeks ago, but has returned to the ring where he'll fulfill the necessary "Young Boy" duties bestowed upon him by BJ. Whitmer gets the microphone and tells the angry fans that a live mic is "way louder than they are." The fans try hard to bury BJ's voice, but it's no use: "Two weeks ago Colby, you came out here and you showed the world how much of a man you are, and you came within an inch of beating that big goofy bastard Moose. But I don't think your father gets it. I don't think he understands. And I think he needs to see it— AGAIN !" BJ tells Colby Corino to "step up and take his place in the match." Colby immediately takes a roll of white tape and begins to wrap it around his wrists. As soon as the bell sounds, Adam Page tags Colby into action against Raymond Rowe, who doesn't want to wrestle Corino. "You're not ready Colby," yelled Rowe, as he begged the Young Boy to listen to his father. Colby slapped Rowe across the face, causing King Corino to stand and scream: "Who taught you this?" Rowe tags out, fearful of what he might do to Steve Corino's son. According to Kevin Kelly, Ray Rowe has known Colby ever since he was ten years old, and opts to allow "Warbeard" to handle the light work. Hanson slams Colby, and tags Rowe back in, but Rowe continues to ignore the challenge, ordering the other members of the Decade to tag into the match. Rowe is forced to attack Colby Corino with a vicious backbreaker-gutbuster-powerbomb combo. Adam Page refused to tag in, and War Machine picked up the victory mere seconds later. BJ Whitmer continued to rile King Corino at ringside, to the point where the former world champion broadcaster tossed down his headset and prepared to fight. Before anything could happen however, Kevin Kelly threw the show to a break, in an attempt to restore order.
"Around this time last year, I was considered THE breakout star in Ring of Honor," Cedric Alexander is in the center of the ring, telling the fans how he is no longer the breakout star he once was. "Right now for Cedric Alexander it's do-or-die. I need to start picking up WINS ! I need to start picking up wins to prove to my family that this dream of being a professional wrestler isn't a waste of time." Cedric Alexander is ready to challenge anyone in the locker room, and decides to call out the undefeated Moose! Moose comes to the ring per usual alongside Stokley Hathaway and Veda Scott, prepared to meet whatever challenge awaits him. Cedric keeps up with the big man, evading every one of his drop kicks, and landing a sizzling sidekick to the back of Moose's head. The action spills to the outside, and Cedric is still in control over the burly Moose, but not for long! Once they return to the ring, Moose hits Cedric with a successful drop kick, sending Cedric Alexander back to the outside. We head into a commercial—for Ring of Honor Best in the World—and once we return, Moose and Cedric are still going back and forth. Cedric is very good at reversing the rookie Moose's moves, but has a tough time building any sort of discernible offense that might win him the match. The announcers make frequent mention of how Moose is friends with the majority of men and women in the back, including his manager Stokley Hathaway, as well as his opponent Cedric Alexander. Veda Scott however, has other plans for the future of Moose, and would rather see him turn a blind eye to the rest of the Ring of Honor roster. This match is heating up and Moose scores a near fall following a decapitating lariat. The fans battle chant-for-chant: "Let's go Moose" versus "Let's go Cedric," until this match devolves into a series of forearm strikes. Moose heads to the top rope, but Cedric catches him and prepares to end the undefeated streak of his friend following a litany of high impact drop kicks to the head. "Moose's eyes are dimming," says Kevin Kelly! Just before Cedric can deliver his final kick, Moose summons the strength to employ his somersault Spear. Both men are down and at the mercy of the referee's count. Veda yells at Stokley to distract the referee, and she hands a wrench to Moose. Moose refuses to use the tool to gain the victory, but Cedric Alexander has no problem earning a win that way! Cedric uses Moose's confusion against him and seizes the wrench, smacks him across the skull with it, and hands Moose the very first loss in his wrestling career.
Mandy Leone is backstage giving us a history lesson on what went down between reDRagon and the Addiction when the latter team stole the coveted tag titles from the former. Adam Cole interrupts Mandy, and cuts a promo on his return to pay-per-view this Friday night alongside Matt Taven and Mike Bennett. They'll be heading into six-man-competition this weekend against the Bullet Club's AJ Styles and The Young Bucks.
The main event tonight is—well, it's a contract signing. BUT the main event match this evening is a tag team contest. ACH and Matt Sydal will head into battle against the record-setting seven-time IWGP Heavyweight Champion Hiroshi Tanahashi and the former NEVER Openweight Champion Tetsuya Naito. The NJPW team refuses to adhere to the code of honor, despite Sydal and ACH's insistence. Things kick off with Tanahashi against Matt Sydal, as both men decide take things to the mat. Naito taunts Sydal from the apron, and soon ACH is part of this match. Things wage forward with both teams earning the upper hand, and the NJPW team playing a bit of a heel role. While that might seem odd to NJPW fans familiar with Tanahashi and Naito, it makes perfect sense across the Pacific Ocean where ACH and Matt Sydal are far more popular. Tanahashi scurries back to his corner like a cowardly heel, and things speed up when ACH and Naito take control of the contest. Naito's eyeball gimmick is sort of strange, and even odder when mocked by the inordinately agile ACH. Tanahashi takes ACH to the outside and tosses him into the barricade behind referee Todd Sinclair's back; the New Japan team is most certainly the more dastardly of the two this evening. We head into a commercial break and when we return, ACH has fallen victim to both of his opponents, as Sydal struggles to get back into the action. Naito attempts a Superplex but is sent spiraling down to the canvas. ACH takes advantage of Naito's slip up and applies a double foot stomp to the back of his opponents shoulders. He tags Sydal into the match, and the former Evan Bourne gets to work in settling the score against these two international stars. The waning moments of the match are exciting and unpredictable—both Sydal and Tanahashi battle for dominance before ACH returns for a final go at the former IWGP champion. ACH hits Tanahashi with more than a dozen standing sidekicks for a near fall, and follows up with a German Suplex with a bridge for a 2 and 9/10ths count. ACH mocks Tanahashi to his face, and is awarded a Texas Cloverleaf for his efforts. Before he can reach the bottom rope, Sydal returns with a jumping knee to the face of Hiroshi Tanahashi. The match ends with a frog splash by Tanahashi on ACH for the 1-2-3, and a definitive end to an extraordinary match.
The final segment tonight, and dare I say the main event, is a contract signing between the ROH World Champion Jay Briscoe, and the ROH World Television Champion Jay Lethal. They're set to meet this Friday night at Terminal One in New York City, where both of their belts will be on the line. Lethal hits the ring first, dressed like Lou Bega (Mambo Number 5) and flanked by Truth Martini. Jay Briscoe is accompanied by his brother Mark, who will be in action on Friday against another member of the House of Truth, in Donavan Dijak. Things are tense between the champions; Jay Lethal has said on multiple occasions that his TV title is far more prestigious than the World Championship held by Briscoe. Former World Champion and current ROH matchmaker Nigel McGuinness is presiding over the precedings, and explains the rules and time limit. Nigel says that this will be the biggest match in Ring of Honor history, and asks both men for their final words going into the fight. Lethal says that the only reason he doesn't flip the table over and "beat [Briscoe] where he stands" is because he "needs him at his best." Lethal says that after June 19 th —after Best in the World—Jay Briscoe will no business in Ring of Honor anymore. Jay Briscoe responds in kind, angered by Lethal's overconfident demeanor: "June 19 th , when I get done whoopin' yo ass, when I get done with you boy , you gonna have to go back to being the �Black Machismo' man!" Take that TNA! Lethal flips the table and both men remove their shirts, and hold their belts side by side as they continue to talk smack while the camera's fade out. Great show.

Welcome back to another edition of "Honorable Mention," the once-weekly Ring of Honor report exclusively available at Cheap-Heat.com. My name is Mark Adam Haggerty and in addition to my production credits at the "B+ Players Podcast," I'm the resident ROH reviewer at Cheap-Heat. It's tough being a Ring of Honor fan in Southern California as I've mentioned in the past; Sinclair Broadcasting, ROH's parent company, doesn't currently distribute their programming in Los Angeles, making it increasingly difficult to get my weekly fix without forking over a couple of dollars. But as JR likes to say: "That will not be my hill to die on." I appreciate and value the ROH product, and I recognize the strides they've made in recent years, so I can get over the lack of syndication in SoCal. For now. As a matter of fact, I finally forked over the $7.99 to subscribe to the official website, and I have to say I'm very satisfied with what Ring of Honor has to offer.
EDIT: DESTINATION AMERICA just announced Ring of Honor will debut on their network this Wednesday before a brand new episode of TNA Impact.
This week's episode of Ring of Honor TV comes to us from the Eisenhower Community Center in Hopkins, Minnesota and kicks off with none other than "Unbreakable" Michael Elgin. Does Elgin remind anybody else of the "Taskmaster" Kevin Sullivan? Not only does he dress like the former leader of the Dungeon of Doom, but he's also fucking crazy. Elgin is one of my favorite performers in Ring of Honor; I wasn't sold on him during his time as champion because I didn't buy him as a babyface title holder. Tonight Elgin is going one on one with Caprice Coleman, who has been conspicuous by his absence in recent months, aside from his role on commentary during the "Top Prospect Tournament." Coleman is looking to shut Elgin up once and for all, and arrives to an extraordinary ovation and a sea of streamers. According to the Tale of the Tape, Caprice Coleman has been lacing up his boots since 1998, and has no problem adhering to the "Code of Conduct." Despite his wily ways, Elgin is also receptive to the initial handshake, and then immediately takes the fight to Caprice. After a successful headlock takeover, shades of the great Brad Armstrong, Caprice was rushed to the outside of the ring by an imposing Elgin, who was unwilling to waiver at such an early stage in the match. We head into a quick commercial—even on the official website that I PAY for—and when we return, Caprice is on the offensive and putting the former world champion through his paces. Caprice hit Michael Elgin with his signature "Sky-Splitter" leg drop from the top rope, but achieved only a two count before Elgin responded. Once on his feet again, Elgin proceeded to dominate Coleman with a series of turnbuckle and spinning powerbombs for the 1-2-3.
The next match is for the world television title; Jay Lethal has been champion for over 400 days, and is the only man to wear the coveted TV belt on two separate occasions. His opponent and challenger is the former ROH world tag team champion, and one half of reDRagon, Kyle O'Reilly. Jay Lethal has become accustomed to calling himself the "Ring of Honor Champion," and has customized his television title by removing the "TV" and superimposing a golden globe. Kyle O'Reilly is only one of a handful of wrestlers on the ROH roster who actually poses a threat to the longevity of Lethal's title reign, and wastes little time in showing the "Greatest First Generation Wrestler" why he is a world-renowned professional athlete. O'Reilly is currently competing in Japan as part of the "Best of the Super Juniors" tournament along with his longtime partner Bobby Fish, but tonight O'Reilly's eyes are on the prize. He keeps Lethal grounded with an onslaught of educated feet, and an impressive precision-based mat style that would make Drew Gulak dizzy. Lethal hits Kyle with a belly-to-back suplex, but the Irish-American O'Reilly is unwilling to relent on the vice-like headlock.
After another commercial break—this time an advertisement reminding us to WATCH Ring of Honor—we head back to the ring where O'Reilly is continuing to prove himself to the current title holder. Lethal is finally coming around by now, and returns the offense with a drop kick to Kyle's jaw and a number of knees to the midsection. The TV champion Irish-whipped O'Reilly across the squared circle into the opposing corner for a near fall, and then applied an incredibly innovative submission to the technically-sound Kyle O'Reilly. This match continued back and forth with both men gaining the advantage. Truth Martini tried to council his charge, but was unable to save him from the brutality of the former ROH world tag team champion. O'Reilly locked Lethal in a submission hold around the top rope, but was blindsided by the "Book of Truth," wielded by the veteran manager Martini. Lethal took advantage by slamming O'Reilly directly into the Canadian flag adorning the ringside barricade. He then wrapped the red and white maple leaf around O'Reilly's neck and choked him until referee Todd Sinclair ordered him to cease. The action returned to the ring before the 20-count and Lethal attempted to end things quickly; he climbed the ropes, "Hailed the King" and hit a double axe handle across the skull of O'Reilly. Back and forth, kick for kick and shot for shot, both men fought valiantly for the right to be champion. There aren't many men who can go toe-to-toe with O'Reilly in terms of kicks, but Lethal is eager to try his luck at matching his opponent's veteran BJJ-skills.
Kyle O'Reilly landed a strong knee to the jaw of Jay Lethal, nearly knocking the champion unconscious in the process. He applied the "Guillotine" submission hold, which caused Lethal to fade ever so slowly, until he summoned the strength for a LETHAL COMBINATION! Jay covered Kyle for a two count, and this contest continued to a chorus of "This is Wrestling," from an army of anti-establishment former �Federation fans. O'Reilly attempted to finish the job with what could have been a Superplex, but ultimately became a full-fledged "Hail to the King" elbow drop by Lethal. Lethal tried for a Superplex of his own, but was countered into "Arm-ageddon" in the center of the ring. Lethal jockeyed for the ropes and both men went flying to the outside, where Truth Martini checked on the welfare of his champion as Todd Sinclair counted higher and higher toward twenty. Jay Lethal returned to the ring at thirteen, and O'Reilly made it just after nineteen, thanks to some fans at ringside who helped him to his feet! The two men met in the ring and stared each other down before engaging in what would be the final moments of this incredible contest.
O'Reilly almost fell from the ring but returned in much the same way as Terry Funk, or Dean Ambrose, and hit the champion with a massive lariat for this trouble. He hit Lethal with a brainbuster, and once again, locked him in the lethal—no pun intended—"Arm-ageddon" cross arm bar. Both men refused to lose as Lethal made it to the ropes and both wrestlers staggered to regain their composure. Kevin Kelly reminds the audience at home that we are less than three minutes removed from the time limit, a concept that this wrestling fan completely forgot about! Lethal went for the "Lethal Injection," but O'Reilly caught him in his patented arm-bar. The bell sounded; the time limit was up! The fans chanted "Five More Minutes," and O'Reilly led them in their cry. Lethal was given the microphone and it was on the champion to decide whether or not he would continue.
The fans chanted "Man Up"—the popular catchphrase belonging to world champion Jay Briscoe—and Lethal informed everyone that he was GOING to accept the challenge, but the fans ruined it. He left the arena just as the world champion was making his way down to ringside. "Jay Lethal stay in the back, boy," Jay Briscoe began, "Let a real fighting champion show you how it's done." Briscoe told O'Reilly that he just went to war: "To hell with five more minutes, I don't care if this takes all night!" Jay Briscoe was ready to give Kyle O'Reilly a world title match, but once the bell rang, Lethal returned to cause the disqualification.
All in all, a much better program than last week's show that never really delivered. I've said on recent episodes of "The Outsiders' Edge" that I would rather three or four two-star matches to one or two four-stars. Yes, I love to watch wrestling, but weekly broadcasts are meant to introduce the fan base to the entire roster, and that's hard to do when you're limited to just one or two matches within an hour long show. The big breaking news as of this writing is that Destination America—the current home to TNA Impact—will begin to feature Ring of Honor as early as this Wednesday, June the 3 rd .

Ring of Honor sent out the following announcement today regarding Jay Lethal’s recent milestone:
http://www.cheap-heat.com/jay-lethal-sets-ring-of-honor-record/feed/ 0Jay Lethal, the self anointed "Greatest First Generation Wrestler" has reached a historic milestone, never seen by any ROH World Television Champion in history. He has now held the championship for 365 days! He now officially owns every record associated with the ROH World Television Championship and there appears to be no end in sight.
Winning the championship on April 4, 2014 from Tommasso Ciampa, it would have been a long shot for anyone to suggest Lethal would reach this point. He not only broke the length of an individual reign, he also has defended it a record-setting 26 times. Names such as #Reborn Matt Sydal, Alberto El Patron and Jushin "Thunder" Liger are a just a small sample of the challengers who have fallen in defeat to perhaps the greatest champion in ROH history.
Truth Martini, statistically the greatest manager in Ring of Honor history, has assured us that his champion Jay Lethal is not happy with just breaking and creating records. He has assured us that Lethal is here to own all record books and he will not stop at just being the greatest ROH World Television Champion.
We at Ring of Honor would like to congratulate Jay Lethal on reaching this impressive milestone.

Ring Of Honor Wrestling sent out the following:
ALBERTO EL PATRГ"N CHALLENGES JAY LETHAL FOR THE ROH WORLD TV TITLE LIVE ON PAY PER VIEW SUNDAY, MARCH 1ST at 8:00PM ET/ 5:00PM PT
Sunday, March 1st at 8:00PM ET/ 5:00PM PT Live on Pay Per View, Jay Lethal puts his World Television championship on the line.
Rumors of a dream match have swirled on social media but now it is official. The legendary, 2nd generation Mexican wrestling star, Alberto El PatrГіn, will challenge Jay Lethal for the Ring of Honor World Television Championship live on Pay Per View at our 13th Anniversary event.
Upon his arrival in ROH, Alberto El PatrГіn wanted an opportunity to speak with his fans on ROH Television. Alberto proclaimed that he was finally among the best wrestlers on the planet and he wanted a shot at the most important title in professional wrestling, the ROH World Championship. Lethal and his manager, Truth Martini took major offense to this and Lethal interrupted Alberto, telling him he should have done his homework before coming to class. Lethal made it known that he is the measuring stick for the best professional wrestler on the planet and that his championship was the most important.
This meeting of two very different athletes in the prime of their careers is something that does not happen very often. This rivalry has taken on a personal twist as Lethal feels Alberto overlooked him as a champion. El PatrГіn believes Lethal has challenged his manhood, something for which Alberto will not stand.
Can Lethal add Alberto El PatrГіn to the record list of contenders he has defeated? Can Alberto El PatrГіn make history by ending the historic reign of Lethal? To find out you will either need to be live in Las Vegas or on Pay per View!
