Ring of Honor TV results and recap 10-17: Jay Briscoe vs Adam Page No Holds Barred

The Big Takeaway – A wild brawl and awesome angle headline a fun show as ROH is starting to set the table for their year-end PPV, Final Battle.   

The Addiction (“Almighty” Christopher Daniels/”The Heavy Metal Rebel” Frankie Kazarian) w/Chris Sabin vs The All Night Express (Kenny King/Rhett Titus)

A battle of former tag champs kicks off the show and Kevin Kelly points out that neither team was actually beaten for their titles. ANX was stripped when Kenny King left the company and the Addiction lost in a 3 way without losing the fall.

The teams surprisingly adhere to the Code of Honor. Sabin gets involved early but Kenny King backdrops Kazarian out of the ring on top of him and Sabin ends up getting ejected by the ref coming off of it. ANX gets the early advantage with some double-teaming on Kazarian. Kazarian gets the tag after a couple of minutes but Daniels gets more of the same. Daniels turns it around after some interference from Frankie before we go to break.

Leading into the break we get a backstage promo from Jay Briscoe building up his main event tonight with Adam Page. He calls him “green boy” and says he has no idea what he’s getting into. At the end of it, he’ll be a better man for the experience but it isn’t going to be fun for him. No doubt.

Back from break and the Addiction are double-teaming and Daniels hits the BME on Titus and then does the one foot cover with the General pose but Titus kicks out. Fans are chanting ALL NIGHT and LETS GO TITUS. Titus fights back but Daniels uses an eye poke to stop his momentum. Titus is fighting to get to the corner but Daniels uses the old school heel tactic of hitting King with a cheap shot, causing him to try and get into the action. The ref holds him back, allowed double-teaming from the Addiction.

Titus finally gets the hot tag to King and the place explodes. Eventually all four men in the ring and Titus is still selling the effects of the extended beating. The Addiction take out King with a Total Elimination and then Frankie hits Titus with a flying knee from the top while Daniels holds him and then covers but that only gets a two. King recovers and it able to fight them off but eventually all four men are down.

The all recover at roughly the same time and Daniels ends up hitting King with a Brainbuster and then Titus with a Uranage. This brings out a masked KRD guy, which distracts Daniels. As Daniels is chasing him, Titus hits Daniels with a dropkick and then picks him up for a powerbomb while King comes off the top rope for a lariat and that gets the fall for ANX.

WINNERS – THE ALL NIGHT EXPRESS

After A commercial break, the Kingdom’s music is playing and they are out, dressed to the nines, for an in-ring interview. Maria, in particular, is almost unrecognizable as you rarely see her in a dress. Highlights of the KRD member interfering at the PPV, helping the Kingdom win the belts, are shown.

Bennett tells some story about a farmer and a snake while the fans chant BORING. The moral of the story is that the snake bit the farmer and the farmer shouldn’t have trusted him. The Kingdom are the snakes in this story. We get more highlights from the PPV when Adam Cole turned on Kyle O’Reilly in the main event.

Maria gets the mic next and introduces herself as Maria Kanellis-Bennett, the manager of the greatest faction in the world. She may work in a male-dominated industry but she doesn’t play by a man’s rules. She hands off to Taven. They formed a year ago, not out of necessity but out of greatness and you measure greatness by gold and they are the greatest tag team in the world today because they hold the gold. They will not sleep until Adam Cole gets back what is his, the ROH World Championship.

Cole is next. He turned on Kyle O’Reilly because O’Reilly doesn’t deserve to be anywhere near the ROH World title. He was sick when Kyle O’Reilly was listed as one of the top contenders and not him. He mocked Michael Elgin who he says had such a “great run” in the US that he had to go to Japan to become relevant again. “Way to go, Little Mike”, he says. He gets his “Adam Cole baby” line in and the fans do not chant along as they usually do, so the turn is working.

ReDRagon are out but being held back by security. The Kingdome taunt them with the belts in the ring. Bobby Fish gets a mic and warns Adam Cole that he has no idea what’s he’s done. He also tells Taven that they will be taking the titles back. Cole says he’s love to see the two of them take on the three of us. This brings out Michael Elgin to even the odds with a new “#BIGMIKE” shirt. Ya, I won’t be buying that. Elgin clears the ring of the Kingdom and gets his hands on Maria but the Kingdom pull her to safety. BIG MIKE chants from the crowd. Elgin challenges the Kingdom to six-man match but they retreat to the back.

Inside ROH with Mandy Leon is up next. This week she looks at the rivalry between Silas Young and Dalton Castle. Highlights from the last PPV when Young beat Castle to get control of the boys are shown. Then we get the angle from last week when Young and the Beer City Bruiser beat on the boys for a few minutes in a “match”, which was their first lesson in becoming men. This will lead into next week, when Dalton Castle is back on ROH TV without his boys for the first time.

Adam Cole gets a backstage promo hyping up a match in two weeks with #1 contender AJ Styles. He promises to drop AJ on his head in the match. After a teaser for Final Battle, the Briscoes are there. Mark keeps interrupting Jay and all of this was just to tell us that “we’ll be back after this commercial break”. My description doesn’t do this justice but this was awesome.

WINNER – JAY BRISCOE by pinfall

Kelly berates Whitmer after the match saying that he was arguing with Corino when Page needed his help. Corino mocking him as well. Fans chanting THAT WAS AWESOME and Whitmer gets in the ring with his crutch. He beats on Briscoe with it and this brings Corino into the ring. He takes off his suit jacket and grabs a roll of coins from his pocket and lays out Whitmer with one punch after Whitmer taunts him. CORINO chants from the crowd. He leaves the ring, huge Kelly and then goes to the back as he knows he’s going to be suspended from commentary after that.
