Steven Ho has no reception inside the building so he’s called during intermission and will call afte rthe show with thoughts and confirmation on results. In his place I’ll be putting up results collected from our friend T-Dog from the ROH Message Board, but these are not initially from PWChronicle.com as usual.
I got these by way of T-Dog and the ROH Message Board:
Preshow:
-Michael Nakazawa defeats Alex Sugarfoot Payne (we’re rather sure it’s actually Nakazawa tonight)
Main Show:
1.) El Generico defeats Jack Evans with a brainbusta~!. It is said Jack is needed help out of the ring.
Nigel McGuiness out with a mic. Lariat for Generico and the London Dungeon. Nigel hightails out cause out comes Steen to make the save. Steen cuts a promo on why people like him.They can relate because they can relate. All the people think Nigel is an obnoxious asshole. Steen says he runs his mouth and kicks ass like no one else and he’ll take the title. I’m doing it for me, Generico and the fans. New champion will be Mr.Wrestling. Said to be a very good promo.
2) Jigsaw defeats Mitch Franklin with the Jig and Tonic. (Edwards was suppose to be in the match to make it a 3-way, but read below for explanation)
SNS Inc. is out. Hero says no more comic relief. He was robbed of the title and blames himself. He threatens to kick out Dempsey (shirtless and strapless). Said to be very gross. Makes him get on his knees. Hits him. Real heel heat now. Beats him till he bleeds and throws him out of Sweet and Sour Inc.
3) Eddie Edwards and Chris Hero defeat Erick Stevens and Pelle Primeau when Hero hits a roaring elbow on Pelle and knocks him out.
4) Brent Albright defeats Delirious when Albright makes Delirious tap to the crowbar. Daizee lays on Delirious to protect him. Sweeney wants Albright to break Daizee’s arm. Albright leaves.
5) Necro Butcher defeats Roderick Strong No DQ non-title after Erik Stevens interferes and put Strong through a table with a Doctor Bomb, and Necro covers. Necro apparently wants the FIP title.
Steven Ho called in to say he has no reception in the building. It’s intermission. He reports the crowd was very into the No-DQ match. He said Albright vs Delirious was horrible and deadly silent in the building. They were so slow some people were calling out their spots at ringside and it was audible because it was so dead. “Horrible match’”. Generico vs Jack was very good opener and the crowd loved the finish, which was a TOP ROPE brainbuster.
-Intermission. Return date is October 25 (that’s rather long for Edison? ROH must be going to new markets over the summer)
6) Claudio Castagnoli defeats Kota Ibushi with the Ricola Bomb. Match was said to be fun. It started out slow but picked up well.
-Tammy Sytch is out. Sweeney interrupts and comes out with Sara Del Rey. Sweeney wants Tammy to make Del Rey into a diva. Sara says she’s a wrestler and not a diva and walks out.
7. ) Nigel McGuiness retains the ROH World Title over Kevin Steen with a cheap rollup by holding the ropes.
Steen freaks out. And the babyfaces come out and make him leave as he yells at Cary. Claudio and Nigel with a staredown. Claudio now has the mic .Claudio lays down a challenge for Hammerstein.Nigel says Claudio is a midcard jobber.Nigel says back up and Claudio won’t back up. Nice killer promo and Nigel says no title shot and walks away. Claudio says Nigel is scared and gets a “hey!” for anyone that wants to see the title match at Hammerstein.
8 ) Jay and Mark Briscoe win the ROH World Tag Team Titles from Davey Richards and Rocky Romero when they hit the Jay Driller on Rocky and then hit the Springboard Doomsday on Davey as The Briscoes regain the ROH World Tag Team Titles for the 5th time.

Ha! I totally (OK, not totally, but close enough) called the Briscoes winning. Man up!

Indeed you did. ::grumble, grumble:: Not expecting another nine-month reign this time though.
The stuff involving Nigel, Claudio, and Steen sounds killer.
