Since my laptop died and I haven't recovered the files, and I haven't played EWR in a while, I decided to take another shot at booking ROH. The rosters are from I believe June 2018 and the start date is January 2019. Here's a quick synopsis of where I am (as of the end of February 2019):
As soon as I started the game, WWE purged their roster, effectively gutting nXt. There were a lot of releases from Impact and others as well. I signed a plethora of talent to written deals, including a ton of women. I've sent out tapes in hopes of starting a stand alone women's show. After this initial post I'll word things in a sense of dirtsheet reports and official ROH statements, etc. Here are my new signings:
Asuka Becky Lynch Billie Kay Charlotte Flair Ember Moon Hanson Jessamyn Duke Johnny Gargano Jordynne Grace Kairi Sane Kay Lee Ray Madison Eagles Marina Shafir Maxwell Jacob Friedman Pete Dunne Peyton Royce Rhea Ripley Rowe Ruby Riot Shayna Baszler Tomasso Ciampa Toni Storm Velveteen Dream
I'll post the full roster in the next post.
I had positioned Madison Eagles to be the star of the Women of Honor, however after her first match she was injured and is out for 8 months. It was right after this that WWE released all of the above signees. Candice LeRae would be named the challenger for Sumie Sakai's WOH title at the Winter Warriors event. Before she could debut, Becky Lynch was injured and is due to return in March. Britt Baker was also injured. Candice would defeat Sumie Sakai at Winter Warriors, only to be challenged by Charlotte Flair for a title match at the Anniversary Show in February. Candice would win by DQ, and a frustrated Charlotte took out her rage on the referee.
Dalton Castle defended the ROH World Title at Winter Warriors, defeating Cody. Jay Briscoe won a #1 Contenders match for a title shot at the Anniversary Show.Jay would hit a Jay Driller onto a steel chair while the ref was down to win his third ROH World Championship.
Silas Young and Punishment Martinez are in a brutal feud over the World Television Title. Punishment and Young wrestled to a double DQ in early January, and the two have been attacking each other with various weapons ever since. A rematch at Winter Warriors did nothing to settle the score, and in a Fight Without Honor at the Anniversary Show, Martinez was able to win the title after brutalizing Young enough to keep him down. There's no telling where things will go from here.
In the tag team world, the ROH roster was bolstered with the addition of DIY (Gargano and Ciampa) and the ROH return of Hanson and Rowe, War Machine. At the Anniversary Show, DIY was able to win an elimination match over SCU (Kazarian and Daniels) and the Motor City Machine Guns to win the Guns' title. In a division with teams like the Best Friends, the Young Bucks and more, the future is looking bright.
Pete Dunne and Maxwell Jacob Friedman are in a feud. Dunne is well known to the ROH audience and MJF is one of the brightest youngsters in the game today.
Jordynne Grace has been smashing her way through the lower card of the Women's division, handing out beatings without discretion. It'll be interesting to see what she can do.
The Anniversary Show had a barnburner of a debut four-way match as Ruby Riot defeated Kairi Sane, Shayna Baszler and Ember Moon.
The Iconics were able to defeat Marina Shafir & Jessamyn Duke. It was reported after the show that Shafir tore her bicep and is out for 7 months.
Another debut happened at the Anniversary show, as Asuka answered Tenille Dashwood's open challenge and handily defeated her.
I should post a show soon. Hopefully. We'll see.

ROH TV Preview for 2-20-19
This Wednesday on ROH TV, we'll see all the fallout from the ROH 17th Anniversary Pay Per View this past Sunday, and we'll start the countdown to our next 2 events, the Conquest live event on March 24, and our return to Pay Per View, Supercard of Honor on April 28!
- Dalton Castle lost the ROH World Title in controversial fashion to Jay Briscoe after a Jay Driller on a chair. Despite doctor's urgings, we've heard the former champion will be in the house this week and have words for Briscoe this week.
- In the main event, new ROH Tag Champs DIY (Ciampa and Gargano) will put the belts on the line against the former champions, the Motor City Machine Guns!
- After Punishment Martinez defeated Silas Young to win the TV Championship on Sunday, both men are beaten and bruised. ROH Ambassador Cary Silkin told rohwrestling.com that both Martinez and Young will get the week off of TV to heal their wounds.
- Candice LeRae wouldn't give up on Sunday and Charlotte Flair went too far, earning a disqualification loss to the Women's Champion. After the match, Flair took out her frustrations on referee Paul Turner, earning Flair a 25,000 dollar fine. Amidst threat of a suspension, Flair has stated she will be at TV Wednesday and has a statement for Turner, LeRae and all of ROH.
- In a surprise match, Ruby Riot won a four-way match between 4 debuting women on Sunday. This week, she will face one of her opponents in one-on-one action, as Riot faces Asuka!
- Kenny King and Scorpio Sky have faced off twice this month on ROH TV, and each man has one win. The ROH Board of Directors has decided to make up to 5 more matches, as King and Sky will face off in a Best-of-7 series! Match 3 is this Wednesday on ROH TV!
- The newest ROH Phenomenon, Jordynne Grace, will be in action on Wednesday!
All this and more, this Wednesday on Comet TV!

ROH TV 2/20/19
The show starts with the ROH Logo, followed by a brief highlight package of this past Sunday's 17th Anniversary Pay Per View from Las Vegas. We see action and stills of the biggest moments of the night, including Jay Briscoe winning the World Title, #DIY winning the tag belts, and Punishment Martinez winning the TV strap. We see Charlotte's actions leading to her being DQ'd, and her battering of the referee.
After the intro, we go live to the Sam's Town Casino for ROH TV. Ian Riccaboni and Colt Cabana run down tonight's action, before being interrupted by a WOOOOOO and the entrance of Charlotte Flair. Charlotte is in no mood to play tonight. She laments about the poor decision of the referee to disqualify her for using a chair on WOH Champion Candice LeRae, saying since it was at ringside, the rules should have been relaxed and she was using the atmosphere to her advantage. Candice interrupts Charlotte's rant, sporting a limp from Charlotte's chair attack to her leg on Sunday. Candice says while Charlotte no doubt broke the rules, it didn't matter to her. She would face Charlotte again, rules or none. They are interrupted by the music of Asuka, who simply says she won against 3 other women on Sunday and should get a title shot.
On commentary, we hear Colt Cabana say “what's that? Do it now? Okay, got it. Ian, I gotta take care of this.”
Cabana gets in the ring and says he was just informed that all 3 women have cases to make for the title. So at the huge Philadelphia live show on March 24, Asuka will face Charlotte Flair, and the winner will challenge Candice LeRae for the WOH title at the next ROH Pay Per View offering, Supercard of Honor on April 28. Also, Asuka will have a tuneup for that match when she faces Ruby Riot later tonight.
SEGMENT RATING: 64%
Best of 7 Series, Match 3 (Tied 1-1) Scorpio Sky vs. Kenny King
Sky and King have another great back and forth match, and it's aparent that they are getting familiar with one another, as the counters are aplenty. King goes for a hurricanrana, but Sky blocks and transitions King onto his shoulders in a fireman's carry and hits King with a facebuster to the knee, a move Sky calls the Ace of Spades, and it earns the 3 count. Sky offers a handshake after the match, which many of the crowd are weary of. King accepts, but Sky removes his hand, cackles and walks away laughing.
WINNER: Scorpio Sky (Pinfall) SEGMENT RATING: 68%
We go backstage, where the screen is filled with feathered fans, which are slowly removed to reveal the former ROH World Champion, Dalton Castle. The Party Peacock is dressed in his usual garb, but has a slightly more serious tone this week. This is Ring of Honor, and Jay Briscoe was less than honorable in his pursuit of Castle's World title. Castle calls for the new champ to put the title on the line, and when the match is over, the Party Peacock and his boys will leave with the Championship, and he might even make Jay one of his boys as well.
SEGMENT RATING: 74%
Jordynne Grace vs. Rhea Ripley
Thicc Momma Pump continues her reign of terror over the women's division, dispatching of the much taller Ripley with relative ease, hitting Ripley with a massive powerbomb and covering her for the win. After the match, Grace locks on a camel clutch, which Cabana says Grace told him she's christened the Grace lock, before releasing the hold after much urging from the referee.
WINNER: Jordynne Grace (Pinfall) SEGMENT RATING: 47%
Ian Riccaboni says we have some interesting footage to watch from earlier tonight, involving the man to his left (Cabana), and its not the in ring segment.
We cut to footage of a camera running backstage, with “earlier tonight” on the screen. We hear yelling and we come upon Colt Cabana and Jay Lethal in each other's faces. ROH officials and refs surround both men, but are not actively separating them. Cabana says Lethal needs to have a killer instinct, to which Lethal responds that a comment like that coming from a comedy wrestler like Cabana is a laugh in itself. Cabana says he is a comedy wrestler, but he showed Sunday that, when he beat Lethal, even the funniest of wrestlers can put the funny aside and pick up a win when they need to. Cabana suggests that Lethal put on the robe and sunglasses and turn into Macho Lethal because that's the only time he was successful. Lethal is staring at Cabana intensely, before saying Cabana should get back in the ring and quit commentary, because he is SHIT. Lethal turns to walk away, and Cabana attacks him from behind. Lethal goes to retort, but the refs and officials have already stepped in to keep the two apart.
We return to the arena, where Riccaboni asks what that was all about. Cabana says he stands by what he said, and Ian knows that Colt works damn hard at his commentary and that insult was a slap in the face more than the criticism of his (hand quotes by Cabana) “wrestling character.” Cabana says he beat Lethal Sunday and he'll be more than happy to step back in the ring with him and beat him again.
SEGMENT RATING: 79%
Asuka vs. Ruby Riot
Riot controls early, but Asuka turns the tide when Ruby misses a moonsault from the top. Asuka hits two hip attacks, a spin kick and puts on the Asuka Lock to earn the submission win. Asuka is celebrating when she is blindsided by someone from the crowd, who we quickly see is Charlotte Flair. Flair hits and exploder suplex, does a kip up and attempts to lock on the Figure Eight. Asuka blocks it and rolls out of the ring. Asuka backs up the aisle, and Charlotte signals that she was “this close.”
WINNER: Asuka (Submission) SEGMENT RATING: 60%
ROH World Champion Jay Briscoe makes his way to the ring. He says he has somethin' to say to that Peacock boy, so why don't he come on out here. Dalton Castle enters the arena, but on the aisle he is attacked by someone in a hoodie. The hoodie is lowered to reveal a returning MARK BRISCOE! Mark rolls Castle into the ring, and the Briscoes hit a springboard Doomsday Device, followed by Mark's froggy bow and a Jay Driller on the title! Castle lies in the ring with blood on his face. Mark takes the mic, announces his return, and Jay says that Castle needs to find himself a boy and they can fight the Briscoes at Conquest. If they beat the Brisoces, that's the only way Castle will get a chance at Jay's title.
SEGMENT RATING: 72%
ROH World Tag Team Championship #DIY (Champions) vs. the Motor City Machine Guns
The match is as good as advertised. Great chain wrestling and the Machine Guns use their aerial prowess to wow the crowd and gain many near falls. The champs prevail in the end, after Alex Shelley is sent from the top to the floor on the outside with a Gargano running enziguri, followed by Sabin being hit with a combo running knee smash to gain the fall for DIY. Following the match, the four men shake hands, and raise each others arms as we end the show.
WINNERS: #DIY (Pinfall) SEGMENT RATING: 77%
TOTAL RATING: 68%

ROH Newswire 2/25/19
(GAME NOTE: On 2/25 ROH rose from Cult to National level!)
- After his verbal and physical confrontation with Jay Lethal last week, the ROH Executive Committee has removed Colt Cabana from the position of Committee spokesman, and have found his replacement, and the person, who has been given the title of ROH Ambassador, will debut this week on ROH Television!
- Last week we saw the return of the injured Mark Briscoe, who attacked the nemesis of his brother Jay, the Party Peacock Dalton Castle. After the blindside ambush, the elder Briscoe suggested that Castle find a partner, and the two of them could face Dem Boys at the Conquest live event on March 24. Briscoe went on to further state that if Castle and his partner could somehow defeat the Briscoes, then and only then would Castle get a rematch for the ROH World Title. What will the Party Peacock have to say to this proposal? We just might find out this week!
- Kenny King and Scorpio Sky have met 3 times in their Best of 7, and Sky holds a 2 match to 1 lead. This week's main event will see the two have their fourth match in the series. Will King even things up, or will Sky be able to take a commanding lead?
- After a week off to rest after a hellacious battle at the Anniversary Show, Punishment Martinez will be in action this week as he defends the TV Title against crowd favorite Flip Gordon!
- The Iconics, Billie Kay and Peyton Royce, will be in action this week.
All this and more on ROH Television, this Wednesday on Comet TV!

ROH TV 2/27/19
After the show open, we go right to the ring, where Jordynne Grace is standing with a microphone. Ian Riccaboni and Colt Cabana introduce themselves, then say that Grace made her way to the ring while the show open was playing. Cabana notes that she is undefeated so far since debuting in ROH. Grace says the competition she has faced so far in ROH has been pathetic. She wants better competition and will face anyone in the back. Music plays and LSG makes his entrance. Riccaboni is unsure about this but Cabana says that Grace said she would face anyone, and LSG is, indeed, anyone. The bell rings and the match is official!
Grace laughs at LSG, who piefaces her and then laughs himself. Grace gets up, now with a more serious demeanor, and spears LSG. She hits a deadlift suplex before locking on the Grace lock, and LSG submits. Grace isn't done and after the bell, she again German suplexes LSG before dumping him out of the ring.
WINNER: Jordynne Grace (Submission) SEGMENT RATING: 48%
Grace asks for the microphone and again asks for a challenge when “Break Stuff” by Limp Bizkit plays and Toni Storm walks through the curtain and makes her ROH debut. Riccaboni and Cabana put over Storm's resume on commentary while she gets in the ring, removes her jacket and gets in Grace's face. Grace sneers, nods her head, and leaves the ring. She can be seen mouthing “that's what I was talking about” as she backs up the aisle.
SEGMENT RATING: 57%
We go to the back where BJ Whitmer is standing by to interview Dalton Castle. The Peacock says it was awful nice of Mark to come back with a Welcome Back present of his own for Castle. He says he has a partner in mind, and that man is a real man much like the Party Peacock, and he'll be here sooner than later.
RATING: 79%
Iconic vs. Karen Q & Kay Lee Ray
In what amounts as not much more than a tune-up match for Iconic, Kay and Royce have their way with Ray and Karen Q. Its not the best wrestling in the world, but its effective nonetheless. A Billie Kay big boot to Ray is followed up by a Peyton Royce Fisherman Suplex for the Iconic win. Following the bell, Kay and Royce celebrate as though they've won Olympic gold, posing on the stage and waving to the booing crowd, seemingly with tears in their eyes.
WINNERS: Iconic (Pinfall) RATING: 49%
Back from commercial, Bobby Cruise announces the arrival of the new ROH Ambassador to the Executive Committee...silence before we hear the sound of gunshots and Spanish rapping, signaling the arrival of Konnan! The crowd stands in approval as Konnan makes his entrance. He says he's happy to be here and isn't going to take any guff from anyone. Konnan says that in his first act as Ambassador, he's here to announce the main event for Conquest on March 24, Dalton Castle and his mystery partner vs. the Brisoces.
RATING: 78%
ROH World Television Championship Punishment Martinez (c) vs. Flip Gordon
Punishment is welcomed back to television with a title defense, and Flip is ready to seize the opportunity. Flip uses his speed and evasive maneuvers to avoid Martinez, and even when Martinez has the advantage, Flip dodges a charge and Martinez is sent through the ropes to the outside. Flip hits a dropkick to Martinez on the floor, sending the champion over the barricade and into the crowd. Flip surveys the situation, vaults to the top rope and hits a springboard front flip dive into the crowd! Flip dumps Martinez back over the barricade but before he can get Martinez back to the ring, he rolls in and back out to break the ref's count. Martinez reverses Flip's attempt at a whip into the barricade, and Gordon smashes the barricade shoulder first. Flip is down holding his shoulder and the ref comes to check on him. Suddenly, Silas Young jumps the barricade and attacks Martinez, and nails him with a chairshot and rolls him into the ring. Silas helps Flip to his feet and rolls him into the ring as well. Flip drapes an arm over a prone Martinez and the ref counts the 3. The crowd comes unglued as the announcement of a new champion is made. Gordon, still holding his shoulder, is slow to realize what has happened, and we see Silas Young backing up the aisle with a half-smile and a sneer.
WINNER and NEW TV CHAMPION: Flip Gordon RATING: 52%
We return from commercial and go to Ian and Colt for reaction to what just took place when, out of nowhere, Jay Lethal blindsides Cabana. Colt's headset goes flying as Cabana goes to the ground. Lethal lays the boots to Cabana over and over. We hear Riccaboni calling for help over the microphone as Lethal beats Cabana down. With Colt on the ground, Lethal grabs a chair and wallops Cabana over the back with it. He goes for another shot but security and officials swarm him and separate the two. Cabana is attended to as Lethal is removed from ringside. Lethal shouts “THIS ISN'T OVER, CABANA!” as Riccaboni shouts that we should go to break.
RATING: 70%
Kenny King vs. Scorpio Sky (Best of 7 – Sky leads 2-1)
King and Sky shake hands before the match, and Sky pulls King towards him. King reads the situation and ducks an attempted clothesline, hits a neckbreaker, and sends Sky to the outside. King follows up with a tope, and we're off and running. King and Sky are becoming more familiar by the week and it was vital that King strike fast and furious. Sky gets some moves in, but more often than not, King is able to counter Sky's offense. King gets Sky up in a fireman's carry, but Sky wriggles free and gets King in a fireman's carry of his own. Sky goes for the Ace of Spades, but King counters, again gets Sky in the fireman's carry and this time nails Sky with the Royal Flush (fireman's carry to a cutter ) and earns the pinfall. King celebrates his win, then shakes the hand of the prone Sky, as Cabana notes the series is now tied at 2, and we end the show.
WINNER: Kenny King RATING: 74%
OVERALL RATING: 64% TV Rating: 2.25 ATTENDANCE: 669

ROH Newswire 3/4/19 - DALTON CASTLE announced last week that his partner for Conquest will be on ROH TV this week. Who will it be? Is it a familiar face? Someone completely new to the ROH world? The Party Peacock has told the ROH Newswire that no one will be disappointed by the reveal. Who could it be? - A shocking new ROH Television Champion was crowned last week when FLIP GORDON defeated PUNISHMENT MARTINEZ, with a bit of help from Martinez' old foe, SILAS YOUNG. The former champion will no doubt want retribution on Young, as well as his title back. Find out more on this developing situation this week! - A GIGANTIC match was made official just hours ago, and it will take place LIVE in Philadelphia on March 24. Make sure you are in attendance to see the first (maybe I made that up) meeting of KENNY OMEGA and PETE DUNNE!!!!! - After JORDYNNE GRACE issued a challenge to anyone to come out and face her, we saw the ROH debut of TONI STORM.

ROH Wrestling 3/6/19 Taped from Baltimore, Maryland
As Ian Riccaboni and Colt Cabana welcome us to the show, Punishment Martinez storms to the ring and demands a microphone. Cabana says this is 2 weeks in a row they've been interrupted and he's getting tired of it. Riccaboni suggests that Cabana do something about it, but Colt declines and says he thought Ian had this one.
Martinez is livid at Silas Young for interfering and costing him the Television Championship last week. He's ending this beef they've had once and for all, and now Flip Gordon is going to be collateral damage. Punishment doesn't care who he gets first, but he wants both Flip and Silas. He'll even take out both at the same time if that's what it takes.
Silas Young makes his way out. Silas says that there are no automatic rematches in ROH, but he has an idea. If Konnan and the Executive Committee will accept it, Silas and Punishment will face off one last time at the Conquest live show in Philadelphia on March 24. If Punishment wins, he gets his rematch, but if Silas wins, he gets the match.
Punishment says that's fine with him, but if he (Punishment) wins, Silas gets no more shots at the TV Title.
Silas says he'll do Punishment one better. If Punishment wins, Silas says not only will he never challenge for the TV Title again, he'll leave Ring of Honor permanently.
SEGMENT RATING: 57%
Kenny King vs. Scorpio Sky Best of 7, Match 5 – tied 2-2
King and Sky is becoming old hat by this point. The first few minutes are just reversals, reversals of reversals, and reversals of said reversals of reversals. That's a lot of reversals. King abandons his usual aerial attack and goes for a ground game that is, while at times sloppy, a surprise to many, including Sky. Sky gets caught unaware and King locks in the rarely-used Last Chancery to earn the submission victory. After the match, King helps Sky to his feet and offers a handshake, but Sky will have none of this Code of Honor crap and slaps his hand away. King can be seen mouthing “one more,” alluding to the fact he's one win away from winning the series.
WINNER: KENNY KING (Submission – Last Chancery) MATCH RATING: 72%
After the commercial, we go backstage where BJ Whitmer is standing by with the Ambassador to the Executive Committee, Konnan. K-Dog says that he just got off the phone with the committee and Punishment Martinez will face Silas Young at Conquest, with the winner facing TV Champion Flip Gordon at Supercard of Honor. In addition, if Punishment wins, Silas will be fired from Ring of Honor. Konnan has a special addition to the match, since he likes to spice things up: Punishment vs. Silas at Conquest is a FIGHT WITHOUT HONOR!
SEGMENT RATING: 59%
Charlotte Flair makes her way to the ring dressed in street clothes. Riccaboni notes that Charlotte said she had something to say to Asuka, and here she is. “That's an astute observation, Ian” quips Cabana.
Charlotte says she's been a champion everywhere she's been, and that will be no different here in Ring of Honor. She's come here to prove she's the best on her own. She's not the favorite of the office, and she has no pull in the back. But it seems there's a familiar face in her way. “The Sun Rises” by Rei Kondo plays, and Asuka makes her way to the ring. Charlotte says speaking of the devil, here's Asuka! Asuka grabs the microphone and says “Asuka is dead! At Conquest, you will face KANA!” The crowd cheers the name change, and KANA continues “and at Conquest, you will tap out to the KANA lock!” Charlotte says that KANA will be the one tapping when she locks on the figure 8. Konnan makes his way out to the ring, and jokes about being busy tonight. He says that he just heard from the Committee and the match at Conquest will be a submission match! KANA smiles, and Charlotte returns the smile as Riccaboni and Cabana put over the news.
SEGMENT RATING: 61%
Pete Dunne vs. Rhett Titus
Pete Dunne's return to television is met with a rather easy outing against the ROH veteran Titus. Dunne runs through the greatest hits, using joint manipulation and an array of submissions to keep Titus grounded, before ending things with a double foot stomp, followed by the Bitter End.
WINNER: PETE DUNNE (Pinfall – Bitter End) MATCH RATING: 63%
Dunne grabs a microphone and has a few words for Maxwell Jacob Friedman. Dunne doesn't forget their history, with MJF attacking him, and their brawl through the backstage area a few weeks ago. MJF is in his sights, but he can't let that distract him from his match with Kenny Omega at Conquest. Dunne gives Omega credit for being one of the best in the world, but he's never been in the ring with someone like Pete Dunne. Dunne will break his fingers, then Omega will meet his Bitter End.
SEGMENT RATING: 66%
Riccaboni and Cabana are recapping the evening's events and mentioning matches set for Conquest, when Johnny Cash's “When the Man Comes Around” begins playing. The crowd explodes when Becky Lynch emerges from the curtain, a stoic look on her face. She nods and makes her way to the ring as the crowd continues cheering.
“Aye, are ya happy to see me? Well, lads, its good to see you, too. People been saying to me, Becks, when ya gonna go on ROH TV and show em who's boss? Well, lads, I'm here! And whether its old foes like Charlotte Flair, Asuka, or them Australian dames, or some new faces like Jordynne Grace, or that other Australian dame that came out last week, it don't matter. Becky Knox is here, and she'll take em all on! So keep yer eyes open and yer ears at attention, cuz while I was once the Man, here and now, I'm the Boss!”
SEGMENT RATING: 79%
Dalton Castle (w/ the Boys) vs. Mark Briscoe
The tension in the arena is palpable, as everyone remembers Castle promised his partner for Conquest would be here. Mark Briscoe enters with his brother Jay, but Castle enters with the boys and no one else. It's a classic pro wrestling trope of every time Castle gets the advantage, Jay somehow manages to trip him up or do something to give Mark the advantage back. Castle gets Mark up for the bangarang, and Jay gets in the ring and hits a boot to Castle's face to cause the disqualification. Mark and Jay put the boots to Castle. One of the Boys tries to save his charge, but is quickly dispatched from the ring. The other boy surveys the scene and runs to the back. The crowd stirs as they know what is coming, when “ooohhhh Patrick!” is heard, followed by Prince's “Let's Go Crazy.” The crowd roars as Velveteen Dream steps through the curtain wearing a purple version of Castle's entrance gear. “Ian! I I-I can't believe it!” Cabana stammers. “Patrick Clark is here!” Clark soaks in the reaction then sprints for the ring. Jay abandons the beating on Castle and heads up the aisle but is speared by Clark. Mark misses a clothesline and is met with a superkick that sends him through the ropes. The Briscoes gather themselves in the aisle as the Boys and Clark help Castle to his feet. The crowd is going insane with their various chants, as Riccaboni says it looks like the main event for Conquest is set, and we go off the air.
WINNER: Dalton Castle (Disqualification) MATCH RATING: 73%
OVERALL RATING: 67% TV RATING: 2.16 ATTENDANCE: 883

ROH WRESTLING 3/13/19 Taped from Baltimore, Maryland
The show opens backstage. BJ Whitmer is leading the camera, and in the distance we see Patrick “the Dream” Clark and Dalton Castle. Whitmer asks Dream why he came to ROH. Dream says he was looking for a new opportunity, and he seized one when Castle needed a friend. Friends, however, do friends favors. “Think of it as friends, with benefits.” Castle looks uneasy at the camera, and Dream says what he means is, when they beat the Briscoes at Conquest, then Castle wins the ROH World Title back from Jay Briscoe at Supercard of Honor, the next man in line to face Dalton will be the Dream. Dream walks off looking satisfied while Castle looks less than thrilled.
SEGMENT RATING: 73%
KANA vs. Tenille Dashwood
Tenille asked for an opportunity to make a mark, and was granted a match with KANA. The Empress makes quick work of Dashwood, and locks in the KANA lock for the quick submission. No sooner does the bell sound than Charlotte Flair rushes the ring and attacks KANA. Flair goes for the Figure 8 but KANA manages to escape. KANA hits a hip attack and goes for the KANA lock, but Charlotte escapes and flees the ring. Both women make the “that close” sign, as both were just that close to locking in their respective submissions.
WINNER: KANA (Submission - KANA lock) MATCH RATING: 73%
BJ Whitmer is in the ring and conducts an interview with the new World Television Champion, Flip Gordon. Flip says an awful lot of people have been making matches around ROH, and some with his future match plans involved. But he's fine with that, as he plans on being a fighting champion. Out of the corner of the screen, Punishment Martinez attacks Flip. Martinez hits a spin kick on Flip and gets him up for a chokeslam, but Silas Young hits the ring and clips Martinez' knee. Silas puts the boots to Martinez but security is quickly on the scene to separate everyone. Tensions are high in the arena as we go to break.
SEGMENT RATING: 52%
Colt Cabana vs. Adam Page
Jay Lethal, Cabana's opponent at Conquest, is on commentary with Ian Riccaboni for this one, and being that there have been attacks aplenty tonight, security is at ringside for the match. The comedy is gone from Cabana's act, outside of his outlandish singlet. Cabana goes to the top, points at Lethal, and hits the diving elbow drop to Page. Cabana again points at Lethal, flips him off, and hits a Lethal Combination on Page. Lethal rises at ringside, but security quickly surrounds him as Cabana covers Page and gets the victory.
WINNER: Colt Cabana (Pinfall) MATCH RATING: 61%
We come back from break and BJ Whitmer is standing by backstage, where he introduces Konnan, the Ambassador to the Executive Committee. Whitmer says he understands Konnan has a special announcement. Konnan says that he wanted to add some spice to the big KANA vs. Charlotte Flair match at Conquest. As the Ambassador, part of his job is to liven things up around ROH. What a better way to do that, than to bring another familiar face into the match, as KANA vs. Charlotte will have a special referee, none other than ROH's newest signee, Becky Knox!
SEGMENT RATING: 70%
Scorpip Sky vs. Kenny King (Best of 7 – King leads 3-2)
King looks to end things early and tries to lock in the Last Chancery. Sky fell victim to that last time out, and is ready for him and suplexes King. The match is a chess match, with each man feeling the other out. King hits a spinning front kick and again goes for the Last Chancery. Sky rolls King up and holds the tights, earning the 3 and tying the series up at 3.
King throws a fit after the match, when Sky interrupts and demands the ref raise his hand right in front of King. King is not pleased and bitch slaps Sky. Sky holds his face, then takes down King and rains down fists. King rolls to the dominant posistion and hits some strikes of his own. King again goes for the Last Chancery, but Sky rolls out of the ring. The two stare each other down as Riccaboni hypes up the 7th and deciding match this Sunday at Conquest
Sky vs. King (Sky 3-3- Sky holds the tights – fight after match)
WINNER: Scorpio Sky (Pinfall – Roll-up) MATCH RATING: 73%
We come back from break and the camera shows an empty locker room. Candice LeRae slowly walks into the screen, the Women of Honor title around her waist. “Remember me?” she says. She talks about the new competition that have arrived. She herself just got here, but now with Jordynne Grace running through competition, and Toni Storm, KANA, and Becky Knox here, the competition is stiffer than ever. She says she doesn't have a match at Conquest, but she will be there and will keep an eye on things, and says that KANA and Charlotte Flair should keep April 28 open, because she would love to face the winner of their match and put her title on the line, at Supercard of Honor.
SEGMENT RATING: 74%
Young Bucks vs. Motor City Machine Guns Winners face #DIY at Conquest
The match looked good on paper going in, but we all know wrestling isn't done on paper; its done on flat screens mounted on the wall. With the added stipulation of a tag title shot for the winning team, the Bucks and Guns bring out the heavy artillery. The Bucks nearly seal the deal after More Bang for Your Buck on Sabin, but Shelley barely breaks up the count to preserve the match. The teams trade moves that would finish any normal match, but kickouts come at just the right time. The Bucks hit a pair of double superkicks on both men, followed by an Indytaker on Sabin to get the win. The Bucks celebrate and make the patented “the titles will go right here, on our waists” motion as we go off the air.
WINNERS: The Young Bucks (Indytaker) MATCH RATING: 87%
OVERALL RATING: 72% TV RATING: 2.27 ATTENDANCE: 664
