Fish and O'Reilly took turns working over Edwards. They nailed a series of flying forearms and kicks in the corner. Fish covered Edwards but Richards broke up the pinfall. Edwards fired back but was cut off with a series of kicks. They are working a very UWFi style with lots of stiff shots and kicks.
Richards finally tagged in and began killing people with hard kicks. He nailed a leaping forearm on O'Reilly and nailed a sick back suplex. The Wolves massacred him with kicks at the same time.
It came down to O'Reilly and Richards slapping and chopping the hell out of each other. Kyle grabbed a front guillotine choke but Richards grabbed his leg while being choked and cinched on an anklelock. Richard grabbed him for a tombstone but not before Edwards superkicked him in the back of the head. Nasty!
Fish grabbed Richards' leg, allowing Kyle to nail an enziguiri as he twisted Edwards into a tornado DDT. Nice sequence. Edwards came back to pin Kyle but Fish nailed a moonsault to break it up. Richards KILLED Kyle with a massive clothesline.
The Wolves hit a combination powerbomb/codebreaker on Kyle for a two count. Richards locked in a Boston Crab. Richards came off with a double stomp on Kyle while he was trapped. He finally tapped.
Your winners, The American Wolves!
Another really solid back and forth match with guys beating the hell out of each other. All four of these guys are just tremendous.
ROH TV champ Adam Cole vs. Matt Hardy
They did some really nice mat wrestling early. The crowd was all over Hardy, as you would expect. Cole came back with a nice dive but wiped out and Hardy worked him over on the floor.
Hardy controlled Cole and sent him into the turnbuckles. He locked Cole in a forward guillotine choke. Hardy released it and began kicking Cole in the head.
Cole made a comeback and cinched in a figure four leglock. Hardy made it to the ropes, cut off Cole and nailed the Sidewinder, then a backbreaker for a two count. Hardy hit several more Sidewinders but Cole kept kicking out.
Cole took over control and sent Hardy into the railing. He brought Hardy in for a two count. Out of nowhere, Hardy hit the Twist of Fate for a two count. Cole fought back and locked in another figure four. The crowd chanted for Hardy to tap. Hardy struggled to make the ropes.
Cole went for a back suplex. Hardy grabbed the referee and pulled his shirt over his head. The ref was blinded so Hardy lowblowed Cole and hit him with the Twist of Fate and scored the pin.
Your winner, Matt Hardy!
OK match. I'd like to see what they could do with more time but this was solid stuff.

Another good match. ROH has had a good string of solid bouts today.
The Briscoes took the mic and said they were going to do their part. Jay said that once Generico does his part, they will get SCUM out of here. He said that in case you have forgotten, they are the best tag team in the world. They said ROH is alive and well and SCUM can't tear it down. They issued an open invitation to any tag team in the world to come and ask for a tag team title shot. They then said there was someone who didn't need to ask for a shot and told Coleman and Caprice they would get the first shot because they earned it and deserve it. The crowd gave them a big round of applause.
ROH champ Kevin Steen vs. El Generico: Ladder War
They started out hard with Generico nailing a big boot in the corner and drilling Steen in the chest with a ladder. He went to set the ladder up but was attacked. Generico kicked Steen in the gut but couldn't slam him. He went to rebound off the ropes but was backdropped onto a ladder that was leaning against the ropes. The crowd exploded with a fecal chant.
Steen began slamming the broken ladder atop of Generico. He whipped Generico into the corner and slammed the ladder on him, then nailed a running cannonball into the ladder. That was sick.
Steen controlled Generico, trashing him with several ladders. He screamed at Generico and ripped at his mask, then kicked him across the back. He trashed Generico into the railing on the floor and got into the face of a fan wearing a Generico mask. Generico used the distraction to try and set up a ladder but was attacked. Steen attacked him nd stomped the hell out of Generico.
He placed another huge ladder in the ring and began climbing it but Generico grabbed at him. Steen came down off the ladder to confront him but was grabbed for an overhead suplex into the remnants of another ladder into the corner.
Generico began climbing the huge ladder but Steen pulled him down. He went for a clothesline but Generico ducked and nailed a Dragon suplex into the ladder... (Continues on next page)
