– T.J. Perkins beat Mike Mondo
Back and forth match. Perkins finally won it with a La Magistral Cradle. Should make for a decent TV match. No code of honor from Mondo.
— Jim Cornette came back out, and was joined in the ring by The Briscoe Brothers. Cornette said he thought the All Night Express (Kenny King & Rhett Titus) deserved another match against The Briscoes, which will take place on ROH TV “next week”, with the winner of that match being named the number one tag team title contenders, and going on to face Charlie Haas and Shelton Benjamin at Final Battle on December 23rd. The Briscoes didn’t like the idea, but started shouting they’d become 7 time tag team champions, and then they said “Man Up, and starting hitting each other to get fired up.
– Jay Lethal vs Mike Bennett w/”Brutal” Bob Evans went to a 15 minute draw, so Lethal retains the ROH TV title
This was the TV main event for the first episode. This turned into a battle of attrition, but neither guy could get the win within 15 minutes, and the match ended in a draw. A good match, not great, but good.
