1. The Addiction (Frankie Kazarian & Christopher Daniels) vs. Matt Sydal & ACH.
A fun little tag match to start the show. Both teams are jockeying for position for a shot at reDRagon and the tag titles. About what you'd expect from this quartet, but the party is ruined by the KRD, which stands for the Knights of the Rising Dawn. One of these red masked party poopers nails Sydal with a chair shot, just as Matt's ready for a shooting star press. The Addiction, unaware of what's happened, especially considering Christopher Daniels was a recent victim himself, hit their double-team finisher on Sydal.
Winners: The Addiction.
A short excerpt from the 13th anniversary show has Samoa Joe returning "home" to ROH after nearly a full decade away. Back in Baltimore, Jay Briscoe is out, carrying two belts, as he has the family belt back, courtesy of ODB. All the fur and stickers that the Kingdom put on the belt is gone. You'd think that'd be the end of that angle, but we'll see. Briscoe, citing his two year undefeated streak, thinks he's the baddest man in wrestling.
Enter Joe, who puts the Briscoes over as having "manned up" to carry the flag for ROH in his absence. A title match is made for Supercard of Honor, which will not be on iPPV this time, coming up on 3/27, right before Wrestlemania, of course.
Jimmy Jacobs comes out and whines about Joe returning, meaning Joe vs. the Decade is likely.
2. The Kingdom (Michael Bennett & Matt Taven w/Maria Kanellis-Bennett) vs. the Young Bucks.
Winners get reDRagon at Supercard of Honor. Speaking of whining, that brings us to Maria, who complains about losing "her" belt. Well, it wasn't hers to start with, considering her pal Matt Hardy stole it while he was with ROH, and gave it to her.
This really is a superkick party, as all 4 start throwing around the sweet chin music. Unfortunately, the KRD strike again, as one brazenly pulls Todd Sinclair from the ring, then hides before the arbiter can turn around. Lame. Bennett with a low blow, then the spike piledriver.
Winners: The Kingdom.
reDRagon is out at the ramp at the end, signifying the title match, coming up in less than 2 weeks in California. But who are the KRD really working with?
