The Bouncers picked up the win after hitting Closing Time on O’Ryan. Following the match, Taven hit the Climax on Lethal on the floor.

Drake cut a post-match promo and said that he wants the NWA Worlds Heavyweight Championship. NWA Champion Nick Aldis was on commentary for the match.

– Coast 2 Coast (LSG & Shaheem Ali) defeated Marcus Kross & Griff Garrison

– Jonathan Gresham defeated Kenny King, Dalton Castle, and Jeff Cobb in a four corner survival match

King tried to use one of Amy Rose’s shoes as a weapon, but Gresham stopped him, hit him with it, and then pinned King while holding onto his tights.

– A promo by Lethal built up his match for Taven’s World Championship at ROH’s Manhattan Mayhem TV tapings in New York City on July 20. Taven said Lethal choked at G1 Supercard, and Taven called himself the face of ROH.

Alex Shelley made his return and said he wants a shot against the winner of Taven vs. Lethal.

– Soldiers of Savagery won a squash match

– A segment set up that Nick Aldis will defend his NWA World title against a member of Villain Enterprises at Summer Supercard in Toronto on August 9. Aldis told Marty Scurll that he can choose any member of Villain Enterprises to get the shot, including himself.

– James Storm defeated Colt Cabana to win the NWA National Championship

Cabana was doing an interview about his injury when he was interrupted by Storm, who wanted his five more minutes after their last match against each other ended in a 15-minute time-limit draw. Cabana initially refused due to being injured, but he then accepted the match after Storm attacked him.

Storm submitted Cabana with a half crab.

Rivera countered a sunset flip to get the win. This was Sakai’s return to the ring after suffering a broken orbital bone in April.

– LifeBlood (Bandido, Mark Haskins & Tracy Williams) defeated ROH Six-Man Tag Team Champions Villain Enterprises (Marty Scurll, PCO & Brody King) in a non-title Philly Street Fight

Before the match, Scurll again introduced Flip Gordon as the newest member of Villain Enterprises and said he was giving Gordon the night off from in-ring action.

This was said to be another chaotic match, with Bandido putting Scurll through a table to get the win for LifeBlood. Williams closed the tapings by thanking everyone for coming to the show.
