Fourth Episode:
IWGP Tag Team champions Michael Bennett & Matt Taven (with Maria Kanellis) vs. Jonathan Greshem & ?
I couldn't make out the ring announcements for the second team. I'll update names if and when I get them. The Kingdom wiped them out, including Bennett spearing one on the apron outside. They nailed a double boot on the outside to the face of one.
The IWGP champions continued to destroy their opponents. It reminded me of how the Midnight Express used to wreck guys on WTBS. One of their opponents made a comeback and almost tagged out but was caught and preventing from tagging. He finally escaped and tagged his partner, who came in with a nice missile dropkick but was wiped out with a pair of superkicks. The Kingdom went for the pin but it was broken up. That pissed them off.
Their opponents mounted some decent offense but they were soon beaten with the spike piledriver.
Your winners, The Kingdom!

Moose and Castle started. Moose was cracking up at Castle's mannerisms. Evans tagged himself in. Cheeseburger tagged in and Evans tagged out. So, Young and Burger started. Lots of back and forth action featuring everyone involved. Moose was super over. So was Castle. Burger showed heart fighting back against Young.

Evans rolled up Moose and used the ropes but the referee saw it. Burger jumped on Evans but was tossed to the floor. Moose speared Evans and scored the pin.

A frenetic, solid multi-man match with lots of little stories showcasing some of the rivalries en route to Moose getting the win.
The Decade came out. The crowd was crapping on Whitmer when he took the mic. He said he had something to say. No one wanted to let him say it and booed to drown him out. He kept trying to cut his promo and they kept getting louder. They started throwing streamers to mock him too. Whitmer said that they've watched someone graduate in recent weeks and show more heart then anyone in the back. Everyone thought he was talking about Adam Page but instead he meant Colby Corino. He went on and on about everything Colby has been through and said he used to look at him as if he was a little brother, but instead he sees him as if he was his own son. He said that he hopes Colby sees him as the father he never, ever had.
BJ said that he brought Colby a gift tonight because that's what Dads do for their sons. He booked Colby in a Gauntlet Match against four of the top students from the last ROH Training Camp, calling it the Decade Gauntlet Match. The opponents were Shahem Ali, Wildman, Ben Ortiz (HOH) and The Punisher.
Steve Corino jumped in the ring as BJ asked why him why he's not deciding it's time to step up. Whitmer said Corino abandoned his son and asked how long ago it was when he abandoned his wife and baby son. Corino wanted to go but Nigel McGuinness entered the ring to calm him down. Whitmer began complaining to Nigel about punishing Corino and Nigel warned him that if he said anything else, he was gone. He ordered The Decade to the back. Nigel and Corino had words and Corino was sent to the back.
ACH vs. Bobby Fish
They locked up and ended up in the corner, but broke clean. Fish soon controlled ACH on the mat. ACH came back with some showboating aerial skills. ACH worked over Fish with several kicks but had an Irish whip into the corner reversed. ACH tried to go up and over but was nailed. ACH went for a pescado but Fish moved out of the way. This allowed Fish to work him over with suplexes and forearms, scoring several near falls.
Fish drilled ACH with kicks to the chest. ACH tried to mount offense but was kicked as he rebounded off the ropes. Fish continued to work over ACH, nailing a back suplex. ACH fought back with several stiff elbows and chops. ACH opened up with several kicks to the extremeties. Fish caught his leg but ACH nailed him with the other. ACH continued to mount offense, scoring several two counts.

ACH went for a double stomp off the top but missed and buckled, grabbing at his leg. Fish worked him over but ACH still fought back and rolled him up for a two count.
