Welcome to PWInsider.com's live coverage of ROH Death Before Dishonor XIII on iPPV!

Kevin Kelly and Steve Corino welcome us to the show and run down tonight's card, then they throw it to the ring for our opening match!

Will Ferrara vs Silas Young

Silas goes out to the floor before even making contact and gets in an argument with a ringside fan. Ferrara takes advantage by taking Young out with a dive over the ropes, then maintains the advantage with some forearms and a dropkick as they head back inside. Young uses the referee as a shield to create an opening so he can nail Ferrara and suplex him for 2. Young tries a cocky cover with a foot on Ferrara's chest, but Ferrara easily gets out of that, so Young tells Ferrara he's nothing before raking his boot laces across the eyes. Ferrara comes back with a quick tornado DDT for 2, but Young comes back with the backbreaker/lariat combo for 2. Ferrara hits a Codebreaker and a standing Sliced Bread #2, but Young smartly rolls out to the floor to avoid getting pinned. Ferrara goes out and rolls Young back inside, Young catches a small package for 2, Ferrara goes for another Sliced Bread #2, and Young counters to Misery (a spinning TKO) for the win.

Winner: Silas Young

Solid opener, Ferrara comes across as a more and more serious competitor every time I see him. Dalton Castle's boys come in the ring and fan Young down after the match, but Young decides to jump them. They get the better of Young and ride him cowboy while spanking his ass until Young rolls out to the floor to get away while Ferrara raises the young boys' hands.

We see a video package looking at the history between Cedric Alexander and Moose, then we go to the ring for our next match...

Cedric Alexander vs Moose

Moose went right after Cedricc right off the bell, but Cedric bails out to the floor before Moose is able to get his hands on him. He takes a long count and comes back in, but goes right back outside after breaking the count. Moose finally gets ahold of Cedric and puts a whooping on him, Cedric tries to run back outside but Moose goes after Cedric and tosses him into the barricade. Cedric is hurt, but Moose picks him back up and hits a fallaway slam into the barricade. The fans chant for him to do it one more time, but Moose rolls Cedric inside and starts to climb in when Veda Scott grabs his ankle. Stokely comes over to drag her off, but it gave Cedric an opening to snap Moose's neck down on the top rope and put the boots to him. Cedric goes to the apron and springboards in with a clothesline for 1. Cedric locks Moose down with a rear chinlock, Moose gets out and runs Cedric over with a series of shoulderblocks and clotheslines in the corner, then drills Cedric out of nowhere with a dropkick to the face. Cedric tries going to the second rope, but Moose goozles him and hits a sitout chokeslam for 2. Each man dodges a series of moves from the other, Moose runs up the ropes in the corner (!), but comes off right into a spinning enziguiri from Cedric for 2. Moose blocks a slam attempt, but Cedric plants Moose with a Michinoku Driver (!!) for 2. Cedric charges Moose and runs right into a kneestrike, and Cedric is in trouble. They trade blows in the middle of the ring until Cedric suddenly opens up with a series of kicks, then hits the ropes and runs right off into a bicycle kick from Moose. Cedric drives Moose to the floor with a charging dropkick, then takes Moose out with a somersault dive. Cedric goes after Prince Nana, who is doing commentary, then rams Stokely Hathaway into the barricade when he tries to intervene. Moose grabs Cedric and rolls him back inside, Veda nails Moose with a chair from behind, Moose no-sells and chases her around ringside. Cedric goes for another somersault dive, but Moose catches Cedric and powerbombs him onto the apron. Moose stares Veda down and then rolls Cedric back inside again. Cedric has his wrench in his hand as Moose sets for the spear, and he nails Moose again as he comes in. Cedric makes the cover, and that's all she wrote.

Winner: Cedric Alexander

Really good match, though I could have done with a different finish. Nana and Stokely roll into the ring and check on Moose as Cedric and Veda leave with their victorious faces.

Jay & Mark Briscoe vs Roppongi Vice

The Briscoes are looking pretty imposing tonight. Mark and Romero start off with a quick back and forth, then Romero goes to the eyes and traps Mark in his corner. Beretta tags in and quickly finds himself getting his head ripped off by a clothesline from Jay. All four men wind up in the ring and the Briscoes dump RV out to the floor and take them out with stereo dives. Back inside they go and Beretta quickly backdrops Mark to the floor, and Jay is left to take on both Romero and Beretta. RV nail Jay with the double football tackle, then they hit a series of double teams on Jay and Romero covers for 2. Jay fights back and then Mark makes it back inside and helps Jay turn the tide and trap Romero in the Briscoe half of the ring. Beretta comes in with a cheapshot to Mark and tosses him to the floor, and works Mark over on the floor before tossing him back inside and continuing the beating. Mark eventually gets away and tags Jay in to clean house on both Romero and Beretta. Mark tags in and goes at it with Beretta, taking his headband after Beretta throws it at him, and uses it to power up for Redneck Kung Fu. Beretta's bleeding a bit from the eye and we're reminded of the Maryland State Athletic Commission's strict rules relating to blood. The headband gets knocked off as Mark springboards right into a superkick from Beretta. Series of double teams only get a 2 count on Mark, Romero takes Jay out with a running kneestrike off the apron, then Mark and Beretta go at it until Beretta hits a running kneestrike. Jay comes in and takes Beretta out, then tags himself in and hits a frogsplash for 2. Romero is in and they double team Jay, but a top rope double stomp from Beretta only gets 2. RV sets Jay up for the Doomsday Device, but Mark stops that and hits a uranage on Romero before taking him out with a blockbuster on the floor. Jay hits Beretta with the Jay Driller, Mark hits Froggy Bow, and that's a wrap.

Winners: Jay & Mark Briscoe

Great match, it got a bit tough to recap at times because there was so much going on but this was super good.
