ROH on HDNet 3/6/10 Tapings LIVE Results (Spoilers)

Posted on March 06, 2010 by Steve Kriske

Results sent in by Brian Streleckis.

ROH student Rayna Von Tosh sang the national anthem (”though not well”).

    Pre-show

1) Ricky Reyes defeated Pelle Primeau

2) Bob Evans and Antonio Thomas defeated Mikey Bennett and a partner.

Shawn Daivari cut an in-ring promo.

3) Necro Butcher defeated Robby Wolf. Apparently Necro used weapons, though I’m not sure how this fits into Friday’s angle or why he wasn’t DQed.

    Main Show

1) Rhett Titus & Kenny King defeated the House of Truth.

2) Roderick Strong defeated Kevin Steen. Austin Aries attacked Strong before the match. Tyler Black saved Strong from a post-match beat-down.

3) The Briscoes defeated Dark City Fight Club in a non-title match.

4) Brent Albright won a squash match.

Prince Nana cut a promo and introduced Shawn Daivari as the newest member of the Embassy.

5) Austin Aries won a six-man battle royal. The vacant #6 ranking in the Pick Six standings was up for grabs as Aries earned the win over Jerry Lynn, Rhett Titus, Rasche Brown, Joey Ryan, and Eddie Kingston.

6) Eddie Kingston defeated Joey Ryan by disqualification. Daivari interfered to cause the DQ. Necro Butcher made the save and Cornette came out and booked a No-DQ tag match.

7) Shawn Daivari & Joey Ryan defeated Eddie Kingston & Necro Butcher. Daivari hit Kingston with a low kick for the win, then Rasche Brown saved the babyfaces from a further beating.

8 ) Eddie Edwards defeated Colt Cabana to retain the Television Championship. Steve Corino distracted Cabana during the match and they fought afterward, but Steen pulled Corino away.

9) El Generico defeated Ricky Reyes.

10) Jerry Lynn defeated Steve Corino by disqualification. Kenny King interfered, then foguth to the back with Lynn. Meanwhile, Corino & Steen fought with Generico & Cabana.

11) Tyler Black defeated Austin Aries in a non-title match. Black reversed a Figure Four to win with a small package. Aries and King tried to give Black a spike piledriver after the match, but Lynn made the save. There was a brief three-way brawl between Aries, Black, and Strong. Delirious popped up in the crowd and motioned to Black that he wants a title match.

It’s a day later than intended due to the site outage, but we’re just in time with our quick preview for this weekend’s ROH television tapings in Philadelphia. The TV Champion will also be crowned later than expected, so we take a look at the semi-finals, as well as the current endeavors of Daniel-san.

Burnside hosts this week as I am not up to the task just yet.

But the Stillwater Clinic did grant me a day pass to appear on the show.

And what a show it is.

Featuring a Monty Brown Classic Clip, Against All Odds recap, poetry, Hogan granting Abyss the power of Hulkamania, the best Tenay Reads Lyrics ever (now with theme music!), Worth A Thousand Words, Survivor talk and You’re Not Helping.

Almost too much.

A very special episode of Up North Radio.

In addition to Hogan’s classic promo, Ask Finch AND Ask Burnside questions, Survivor talk, another early TNA Classic Clip, and The Good Old Days (formerly A Year Ago in TNA), my friends confront me about my refusing to believe that Lauren is really gone.

Steve and Brian from BS With Honor guest star.

Powerful stuff.
