4. Kushida & Kenny King def. Adam Page & Marty Scurll. King pinned Page.

We're in Concord NC for the next month. We open with Frankie Kazarian cutting a promo. More of the same gaga from last week. Claims we'll never see Christopher Daniels on TV again because "we don't deserve him". Yeah, sure, Frankie, tell us another tall tale.

1. Punishment Martinez vs. Flip Gordon.

Very good opener. At first, Martinez no sold Gordon's offense, but Gordon wore down the defenses. Ian Riccoboni & Colt Cabana were going nuts over all the flips that give Gordon his nickname. Shadows Fall (Burning Hammer, maybe?) blocked. Kinder Surprise gets 2 for Gordon, but he goes to that well a 2nd time, and eats a South of Heaven sitout chokeslam off the middle turnbuckle, enabling Martinez to finally emerge a winner.

Winner: Punishment Martinez.

Post-match, Jay White came out, and there was another brawl with Martinez.

Colt attempts to interview the Tempura Boyz, whose English isn't very good. We're building to something here, as Colt mocks Dalton Castle and his Boys, which means that issue isn't settled.

2. Cheeseburger vs. Rhett Titus.

Titus gets the jobber intro, but that's just a feint. Way too short, and worse, Will Ferrara sticks his nose where it doesn't belong after a Shotei palm strike in the corner. Titus takes advantage and hits the weakest frog splash in history.

Winner: Rhett Titus.

Shane Taylor video. Ok, whatever.

Colt & Ian discuss the issue with the 6-man champs until Dalton brings the boys out, and we get a 6-man title match for next week.

3. ROH TV title: Kushida vs. Kenny King.

King cut a promo earlier for this match. Sounding more like a babyface here, and they do need a few more of those. Unfortunately, Bullet Club, represented by former TV champ Marty Scurll and Adam Page, butted in and ruined the match.

Winner: None. Match ruled no contest as Page & Scurll attacked both the champ & challenger.

King then cuts a promo in the ring, and we get an impromptu tag match.

4. Kushida & Kenny King vs. Adam Page & Marty Scurll.

As this is on the air, Bullet Club has been in Japan for the G1 tournament, which just ended. Digression over. Another short match. Scurll "broke" Kushida's fingers way too early, giving away that this was one main event Bullet Club wasn't winning. King took the hot tag, and cleaned house, finishing off Page with the Royal Flush. He'll get a rematch with Kushida after the UK tour next weekend, for sure.

Winners: Kushida & Kenny King.
