Just 2 matches on the card again, final episode from San Antonio.
1. Chris Sabin vs. Kyle O'Reilly.
Adam Cole is on commentary for the opener, berating Kevin Kelly for accusing the Kingdom of being the Knights of the Rising Dawn. The misdirection was part of the Addiction's scam, and they teased Kingdom vs. Addiction for the tag titles. O'Reilly was bandaged to sell the attack from 2 weeks ago. Sabin, in his first Ring of Honor match, exploited the injury. No mention of Sabin's brief TNA title run from last year. Very even opener, despite O'Reilly's "injury".
Back from a break, and there's a parental advisory. Why? O'Reilly's bandage is pulled off, and his cut has been reopened, so they alternate from color to black & white for the rest of the match. Bobby Fish comes down to lend some moral support for his partner. Christopher Daniels comes down. Fish intercepts, but that allows Frankie Kazarian to interfere behind the ref's back. Kazarian & Sabin hit the Naturals' old Natural Disaster finisher (double-team neckbreaker), setting up Cradle Shock, and the Addiction gets one on reDRagon again.
Winner: Chris Sabin.
Cole leaves, still angry. Kelly and Steve Corino hype the Global Wars IPPV set for Friday.
2. ACH, Matt Sydal, & Alberto El Patron vs. Roderick Strong and the Briscoes.
We find out that ACH will face Adam Page of the Decade next week. No mention of El Patron being the AAA Mega World champ, though AAA is mentioned. A win here, and El Patron would put himself in a position to challenge Jay Briscoe, especially if he can pin or submit Briscoe, for the ROH title. Might as well call air traffic control.
If you thought Sabin-O'Reilly was hot, this was off the chain. There's just not enough words to describe it. Finally, ACH & Mark Briscoe are legal. As the dust settles, Sydal hits the Shooting Star Press, although it did look as though Mark got the knees up, but can't avoid ACH's 450 splash. ACH picks up an important win headed into his showdown with Page next week.
Winners: ACH, Matt Sydal, & Alberto El Patron.
