Commentary talks more about the Best in the World PPV main event between Jay Briscoe & Jay Lethal, when all of a sudden, ROH Tag Team Champions The Addiction come out to ringside and interrupt them.

Kazarian says that reDRagon has been complaining for weeks about getting a rematch for their ROH World Tag Team Titles of the World. reDRagon is part of the ‘entitlement generation’, where everyone is expected to be handed things, not earn things like we do. If reDRagon wants a shot at their titles, they got it and they got it next week and ONLY next week. Corino, have a good broadcast. Kelly, we give you permission to worship us now.

The Addiction walks off as we go to commercial.

Back from commercial, we are supposed to get MOOSE vs. BJ Whitmer, but before the match starts, Whitmer has the mic.

Whitmer says that he could wrestle MOOSE tonight and would wipe the mat with you, you ‘big, goofy bastard’ and that winning streak could come to an end right now, but I’m not gonna do that. I’m constantly looking for opportunities to teach these young men (pointing to Adam Page & Colby Corino) and right now, I see a huge opportunity for a young man to step out of my shadow to prove that not only does he belong here in ROH, he is the future of ROH (looking at Page). So, Colby Corino, are you ready for this opportunity? Are you ready to show everything I’ve taught you? More importantly, are you ready to show the world that you are more of a man than your father (looking at Corino on commentary) has ever been? Seize this opportunity, Colby, seize this opportunity.

Corino is disgusted by this on commentary as his son, Colby, tapes up for this match.

MOOSE w/Veda Scott & Stokely Hathaway vs. Colby Corino w/Adam Page & BJ Whitmer

Colby SLAPS MOOSE as the bell sounds! Colby with forearms, but they have ZERO effect on MOOSE. MOOSE goozles Colby and throws him outside. Commentary brings up that MOOSE & Colby are friends outside the ring. MOOSE then CHUCKS COLBY FLIPPING UPSIDE DOWN INTO THE BARRICADE!!! Stokely is questioning MOOSE on the outside, while Veda is egging on MOOSE to deliver more punishment. MOOSE grabs Colby by the legs and SWINGS HIM REPEATEDLY INTO THE BARRICADE!!! We see Whitmer & Page laughing at what they are seeing, Whitmer especially knowing that this is getting under Corino’s skin. MOOSE lifts up Colby, APRON POWERBOMB, then holds on and POWERBOMBS HIM INTO THE ROPES!!!! Veda calls for one more powerbomb, while Stokely is again trying to question MOOSE and reason with him. MOOSE lifts up Colby again, POWERBOMB ON THE FLOOR!!! MOOSE rolls back in as the Decade is loving this. Veda slaps Colby on the outside as Corino has to look on and watch his son get destroyed. Page & Whitmer sarcastically try to will Colby on, then Page throws him back in, saying Colby can’t win on the outside.

MOOSE puts one foot on Colby and pins him for the win.

Winner: MOOSE by pinfall

Whitmer again is seen laughing at what he has done as MOOSE & company celebrate his win afterward.

We go backstage in the parking lot as Truth Martini is reading his Book of Truth.

Jay Lethal walks up and says enough with the book, they want me to wrestle the Briscoes tonight, myself and Dijak.

Martini says that they will not get a free preview of Best in the World tonight, don’t worry about it, I have it all taken care of. They walk off as we go to commercial.

Back from commercial, we go to the return of the “Inside ROH” weekly segment with new host Mandy Leon. This week, we take a look at the rivalry between Adam Page & ACH and their two matches against each other recently, with Page cheating to win each time, leading to a post-match pull-apart brawl on ROH TV a few weeks ago. At Best in the World, its Adam Page & BJ Whitmer vs. ACH & Matt Sydal.

Slam gets another 2 as Lethal mentions that his parents will be attendance for Best in the World, with commentary noting that Papa Briscoe will be there as well. This leads to a debate of whether Jay Lethal’s dad could beat up Papa Briscoe, which Lethal gets incensed by. House of Truth continue to work over Jay in their corner.
