From ROH message board:
ROH/SBC TV Tapings - 8/13/11 - Chicago Ridge, IL
Jim Cornette was out at the beginning to put over Chicago and that the TV show will be available for FREE on the re-vamped ROH website!
a. Grizzly Redwood over Tony Kozina following a rana reversed into a roll-up.
EPISODE #1
K. Kelly is in the ring to intro his new partners on commentary...
NIGEL MCGUINNESS
1. Tag Team Grudge Match
Future Shock of Adam Cole & Kyle O'Reilly over The Bravado Brothers of Harlem & Lancelot following Total Elimination. Really good match.
Crowd is SRO - 1000 to 1200 easily!
Taping format appears to be "live to tape" with pauses for commercial breaks where nothing happens.
~Nigel interviewed a fan at ringside about the Tag Team Title Match and the fan predicted WGTT would win.
2. Ring of Honor World Tag Team Title Match
Wrestling's Greatest Tag Team of Shelton Benjamin & Charlie Haas (C) over The Kings of Wrestling of Claudio Castagnoli & Chris Hero w/ Shane Hagadorn & Sara Del Rey when Charlie Haas pinned Chris Hero after the Hart Attack finisher. Great Match.
EPISODE #2
~Jim Cornette back out. Dealing with some audio issue. Intro's WGTT for an interview.
WGTT want The Briscoes after the attack a few months ago (Best in The World '11). Cornette says he's aware, but won't give them the title shot. WGTT tells Cornette to give it to them or else!
3. Challenge Match
"The Prodigy" Mike Bennett over Jimmy Jacobs w/ Steve Corino following The Side Effect. Just okay.
~Nigel interviews another fan at ringside, this time about the TV Title match. Fan predicts Generico to win.
4. Ring of Honor World Television Title Match
Jay Lethal over El Generico (C) to win the title. Went to a 15 minute draw, 5 more minutes chant...Cornette says they don't have 5, but they have 3.
Crazy 3 minute sprint, ending with Lethal hitting a Mic Check style move to win the belt. Great ending to a really good match.
~Return Date: November 19th
5. Mike Sydal over Ernesto Osiris w/ Barrister R.D. Evans after a standing moonsault, following R.D. hitting Osiris with his shoe. (dark match)
EPISODE #3
~Cornette out to interview Briscoes. They say that "next week" they face ANX for the #1 Contendership.
~Corino out to replace Nigel on commentary.
6. Challenge Match
"The Project" Tommaso Ciampa w/ The Embassy over Andy "Right Leg" Ridge
~Corino did speak to Ridge post-match, continuing that he wants to help the young talent.
~Nigel back out and interviews fan about who will win World Title Match. Fan responds "Bring Back K E V I N S T E E N!"
7. Ring of Honor World Title Match
Davey Richards (C) over Roderick Strong to retain title via Ankle Lock; Amazing match 18-20 minutes long.
~Post-match, some in the crowd begin to leave. COO Joe Koff (sp?) is introduced. He puts over the crowd and reminds them of 2 more matches to go.
EPISODE #4
8. Tag Team Grudge/#1 Contendership Match
Jay & Mark Briscoe over The All Night Express of Rhett Titus & Kenny King when Jay kicked King low and scored the win with a small package. Good, hard fought match. Post-match, both teams brawl and it is broken up by students.
~Jim Cornette out again. He says based on the way the last match resulted, neither team would be considered #1 contender.
9. "Defy or Deny" Re-Match Eddie Edwards over "Unbreakable" Michael Elgin w/ Truth Martini with the avalanche suplex finish (?). Strong hit the ring and went nose to nose with Edwards, Nigel got in the ring and backed down the H.O.T. Very good match to close the show.
Notes from internet fans: Apparently, a lot of downtime between the matches, and the crowd was not happy. They may have burned the building out after this.
Jerry Lynn is there, he's a backstage agent. So is the Haze, hopefully feeding herself. Maria Kanelis (sp?) was also there.
