RING OF HONOR TV REPORT

By Anthony Pires on 2021-02-12 16:43:00

Quinn McKay welcomes us to this week's show.  We get scenes from the closing of last week's episode where Vincent seemingly got into the head of the Beer City Bruiser, manipulating him into attacking the OGK (Mike Bennett and Matt Taven) after he and Brawler Milonas' loss.  Quinn was able to catch up with the Bruiser.  She reminds him of Vincent's attack last year.  He and Milonas argue over what Bruiser did.  Bruiser is tired of being 2nd fiddle in ROH.  

We get an amazing promo form Tracy Williams.  The Foundation are heels, no doubt about it.  Their promos, and this one in particular, are riddled with absolute truths, such as being underappreciated and wanting to bring fairness to ROH.  Williams absolutely respects his opponent tonight, Cheeseburger, who has a big announcement.

Cheeseburger is gone.  New man, new swag.  Welcome to ROH, The World Famous CB.  He talks about his humble beginnings, how Cheeseburger was the best and worst thing to ever happen to him.  He felt the perception of Cheeseburger is a novelty act and went as far as it could go.  I'm personally looking forward to this.  I can't tell by his delivery if he's going to end up a heel or not.

Ian Riccaboni and Caprice Coleman have the call of the action tonight.

Pure Rules Match: World Famous CB vs. Hot Sauce Tracy Williams

Code of Honor adhered to and CB put on a little size during his time off.  Full Nelson by Williams into a wristlock by CB.  Williams with an arm twist reversal.  CB with a front facelock, Williams reverses into an arm drag into an armbar.  CB reverses into a wristlock, side headlock by Williams, CB worms out.  Test of strength won by Williams but CB with a Go Behind into a straight jacket, Williams throws him off as we go to commercial.  

We return at the 5 minute mark.  Modified octopus by CB into a body scissors/surf board combo. Williams uses his first rope break.  Chops by CB, Williams responds in kind.  Backdrop driver by Williams into a floatover takedown for a series of two counts.  Rear chinlock by Williams.  CB elbows out and tries a sunset flip and scores a two count.  Williams turns it into an STF and CB uses his first rope break.  Straightjacket choke by Williams and he grabs a hammerlock.  Cheese elbows out but a big chop by Williams.  Forearm smash by Williams for 2.  Bodyslam by Williams into an ankletwist.  

10 minutes have elapsed.  CB rolls through a hip toss and applies a short arm scissor.  Williams has to use his second rope break.  CB goes back to the double wristlock and Williams immediately has to use his last break.  Uppercut by Williams followed by a backbreaker.  Knee strike by Williams into a Doctor Bomb for 2.  CB with forearms and open palm strikes.  Superkick by CB.  Lariat by Williams into a piledriver for the pin.
