It’s announced that in two weeks, Ring of Honor Pure Champion Katusyori Shibata will defend against Alex Coughlin.

Willow Nightingale defeated Madi Wrenkowski

Matt Sydal and Christopher Daniels defeated Zack Clayton and Cole Karter

  • Christopher Daniels hits The Best Moonsault Ever on Zack Clayton to pick up the pinfall win for his team.

They play the same video package from last week to hype up tonight’s Fight Without Honor match between The Kingdom, Darius Martin, and Action Andretti.

  • Lady Frost hit The Temperature Drop off the top rope on Miranda Aliza to score the pinfall victory.

Angelico and Serpentico defeated Eli Isom and Cheeseburger

Zack Sabre Jr. defeated AR Fox to retain the NJPW World Television Championship

  • Zack Sabre Jr. gets the modified Stretch Muffler on AR Fox to get the submission victory and retained his title.

Zack Sabre Jr. is interviewed after the match and claims he’s the best champion in the world and the most active Television Champion in all of professional wrestling. This brings out Ring of Honor World Television Champion Samoa Joe.

Samoa Joe welcomes him back to Ring of Honor but tells him he brought something to the ring that greatly offends him. Joe says there can only be one Television Champion in Ring of Honor. Joe says he knows the powers that be don’t want this to happen but he doesn’t see any of them out there and challenges him to a match tonight.

Before ZSJ can answer, he’s interrupted by Christopher Daniels and Matt Sydal. Daniels says that’s an interesting suggestion but he said Joe can’t make matches. Daniels makes the case that Sydal should be a future Television Champion.

Sydal said he’s only here for the big matches and Daniels asks who wants to give Sydal a shot at a title. ZSJ said he has a cunning plan and suggests he and Joe team up to take on Daniels and Sydal next week with the caveat that if they pin either man, they can get a future title shot.

Sabre said once they deal with Daniels and Sydal maybe then they can determine who the true Television Champion is.

Gates of Agony w/ Prince Nana defeated Dalton Castle and one of The Boys

  • Toa Liona pinned The Boy, who wasn’t the legal man. Dalton Castle screamed at the ring announcer following the matchup.

Shane Taylor and The Workhorsemen defeated Ricky Gibson, Eddie Pearl, and Schaff

  • Shane Taylor hit a Package Piledriver on Schaff to pick up the pinfall victory.

The Righteous are interviewed backstage and asked why they have their eyes on The Dark Order. Stu Grayson storms in and asks them what their deal with. Vincent said they are his friends. The Dark Order show up to try and defend Grayson and Stu gets upset saying they don’t speak for them. Grayson said he’ll give The Righteous one chance next week as Evil Uno is left wondering what just happened.

Mercedes Martinez defeated Ashley D’Amboise

  • Mercedes Martinez locks in a Dragon Sleeper on Ashley D’Amboise to get the win via submission.

Darius Martin and Action Andretti defeated The Kingdom in a Fight Without Honor match

  • Darius Martin and Action Andretti hit a Doomsday Device on Mike Bennett off a ladder to score the pinfall victory.
