00:00:00Billy Starks, coming up later tonight, you have a match,
00:00:05but you've been on quite the role in the Pure Rules Championship Tour.
00:00:08I, um...
00:00:10Mm.
00:00:12Billy.
00:00:13Um...
00:00:14Mm-hmm? I'm listening.
00:00:16I would like to come and say that I am...
00:00:20So...
00:00:21Um...
00:00:24Come on, you can... You got this.
00:00:25That I would like to...
00:00:27You know what?
00:00:30I made a very uneducated decision, though I called you 15 times.
00:00:35You called me twice!
00:00:3615 twice, it doesn't matter, Billy.
00:00:37I made an uneducated decision in picking Mercedes Monet as my tag team partner,
00:00:42and I'm here to say I'm...
00:00:45Okay?
00:00:49One more time? I think I need this on video.
00:00:52You know what? I don't have time. You understand where I'm going with this.
00:00:55Tonight, I have Harley Cameron for my forever ROH championship.
00:00:58And you have your own stuff tonight.
00:01:02Yes, I got my Pure Rules stuff going on.
00:01:04Yes, yes, we know Pure Rules.
00:01:06You're gonna win. It's gonna be fantastic.
00:01:07But if I can't beat Harley...
00:01:10Mm-hmm.
00:01:11...who am I?
00:01:13The Fallen Goddess, Minion, Overlord, Forever Ring of Honor,
00:01:15Women's ROH Champion.
00:01:16Is it getting back together?
00:01:22I think this is it.
00:01:23No.
00:01:24No, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no!
00:01:26Cut it!
00:01:27Come on!
00:01:28Come on!
00:01:28No, no, no, please, cut, cut it.
00:01:49Welcome everyone to Riccobana Wrestling and Riccobana Caprice Coleman.
00:01:52Thanksgiving sure has a way of bringing people together, but tonight, top plate.
00:01:55Thanks for the Infantry Tag Team action.
00:01:58Persephone is in the house, that's right, CMLL Grand Prix Renner is in the house of honor tonight.
00:02:05I don't know what she has planned, but we are honored to have her.
00:02:09And here tonight, ahead of their huge Tag Team battle on Saturday, QT Marshall.
00:02:14The Doom of Boom and Doom takes on Jack Chavis, another frat house.
00:02:20Billie Starrs has made her way to the semifinals of the Pier Women's Title Tournament,
00:02:24but she has to face Katie Arquette on her way there.
00:02:28But Billy Starr Spencer, the forever champion, the American Joshi, the 1100 days as ROH Women's World Champion.
00:02:34Athena defends that title here tonight against Harley Cameron, and that kicks things off here on ROH.
00:02:39The winner of this bout will emerge, ROH Women's World Champion, and punch their ticket to Columbus, Ohio, to final battle.
00:02:53The following contest is scheduled for one fall, with a 60-minute time limit, and it is for the Ring of Honor Women's World Championship.
00:03:04Approaching the ring is the challenger, wrestling at a goal, Coach Australia, Harley Cameron!
00:03:13Well, some say the victory for Harley Cameron and Willow Nightingale, the Babes of Wrath,
00:03:22was the biggest upset that we've seen in AEW.
00:03:29It was Harley Cameron who was able to score a pin over a woman that, quite frankly, has not been pinned in Ring of Honor
00:03:36since ROH came to Honor Club.
00:03:40Tonight, that very woman is out for vengeance.
00:03:44Her opponent, wrestling out of Dallas, Texas, she is the Ring of Honor, Women's World Champion,
00:03:55the fallen guts of Athena!
00:04:04He said she's not feeling like herself.
00:04:08But Harley, she only needs three seconds, not forever.
00:04:14Tonight, it is the underdog versus a champion that I never thought we would see be pinned, Caprice.
00:04:25I know Harley Cameron was the underdog, but she did pin a world champion.
00:04:31And nobody saw that coming, man.
00:04:33You had the women's Ring of Honor World Champion.
00:04:36I mean, you just thought it was going to be an easy match for them,
00:04:38but the upset happened just like the same thing can happen tonight.
00:04:42It certainly can.
00:04:46The winner of this match will leave here tonight the ROH Women's World Champion
00:04:54and guaranteed to be the ROH Women's World Champion at final battle.
00:05:00You've got to wonder if you're Harley Cameron.
00:05:08Knowing this match was signed,
00:05:11Harley, as the coat of honor is set, the bell is off.
00:05:15Harley, of course, in the first ever women's blood and guts match just eight days ago, Caprice.
00:05:20You've got to think there's some damage still lingering.
00:05:22It definitely has to be something in the mind if it's not in the body,
00:05:27but I believe it's in both.
00:05:28When you're in those type of matches, man, it changes you.
00:05:31It changes the way you think about the sport,
00:05:33the way you think about people, and the body.
00:05:36Nice roll through there.
00:05:37Great wrestling here by Harley Cameron.
00:05:39Oh, Athena.
00:05:41Great exchange there.
00:05:43Athena.
00:05:43Oh, out of the way with Cameron there from that single leg kick.
00:05:47Right back to the arm drag.
00:05:50Cameron's been using that arm drag to perfection in this match, Riccoboni.
00:05:54Certainly has.
00:05:56Shades of our guest eight nights ago.
00:05:58The Dragon Ricky Steamboat.
00:05:59And if I'm Harley Cameron, to end the 69-match winning streak,
00:06:06to end the 1,076-day reign of the women's world champion, Athena,
00:06:11I'm going to keep going back to that well, that speed, those quick movements.
00:06:15You have to keep doing that, but Athena also has revenge on her mind.
00:06:19Look at that cartwheel right out of that.
00:06:23Cameron ready for that.
00:06:25Cameron's ready for everything, Riccoboni.
00:06:27How often do you see people play chess with Athena?
00:06:30Not often as Harley Cameron.
00:06:33Whoa, caught.
00:06:34And wait a minute.
00:06:35Wow.
00:06:35Wow.
00:06:36Side rusher, leg sweep.
00:06:38Cover.
00:06:39Two.
00:06:40Athena blocked that head scissors,
00:06:42and Harley Cameron still was able to get the offense on Athena.
00:06:47Harley Cameron is prepared for this match,
00:06:49and Athena intentionally to the outside of the ring to create space,
00:06:52but I don't think Cameron knows it yet.
00:06:55You don't see that often.
00:06:57Oh, goodness.
00:06:59You don't see Athena go to the apron like that to catch her breath,
00:07:02but now turning defense into offense.
00:07:04It's Athena.
00:07:06Side effect onto the apron.
00:07:08Every movement that Athena makes is with intention,
00:07:12is well thought out, is well planned,
00:07:15is scientific for the favorite champion.
00:07:19Clubbing forearm to the back,
00:07:21that primal yell from Harley.
00:07:23Harley, you hit one of those discs back there,
00:07:25you hit one of the vertebrae caprice,
00:07:26and it's that shockwaves through you.
00:07:29Yeah, and that's exactly what's happening there.
00:07:31You can see Harley holding on to her neck.
00:07:34Cover.
00:07:35Two.
00:07:35Let's not forget the recent, you know, facial surgery that Harley went through.
00:07:42You got to protect that.
00:07:44Almost involuntary.
00:07:46The history of neck issues and knee issues for Harley Cameron.
00:07:51You see the way that Athena, after she puts on punishment to Harley Cameron,
00:07:57she's watching to see the reaction, to see what happens.
00:08:00Almost inspecting Cameron to see what is damaged.
00:08:04What do I attack more?
00:08:05What do I stay on?
00:08:06What do I hone in on?
00:08:08That's what Athena's thinking.
00:08:09And I think right now, it's the breastplate that's in a lot of trouble.
00:08:14Two.
00:08:15Well, those poignant kicks, those poignant pointed kicks from Athena
00:08:19will certainly do a lot of damage.
00:08:22And wearing down your wind is, oh, goodness.
00:08:28Tearing at the jaws.
00:08:30Oh, we saw this last week, Caprice.
00:08:32If you remember when Athena and Billy Stark's team together,
00:08:36just doing similar moves in that tag team match,
00:08:38to Haiyan, and then taunting Harley.
00:08:42You are nothing!
00:08:44You are nothing!
00:08:45Oh!
00:08:46These women do not like each other.
00:08:50Digging into the face, that's nasty and that's personal.
00:08:54There's no place I'd rather not be than Athena's bad side.
00:08:58Look at this.
00:09:01It certainly is off the robes.
00:09:03Athena!
00:09:04Oh, my goodness.
00:09:05See Athena tune that up?
00:09:07Wow.
00:09:09Concentrated effort.
00:09:11Force multiplier on that shot there.
00:09:13Absolutely.
00:09:14Athena.
00:09:15Methodical juggernaut.
00:09:17Thinks about whatever she's doing and ready to drive right through you.
00:09:21Closing in on 1,100 days as champion.
00:09:25The cravat needs to defeat Harley Cameron.
00:09:29Come on!
00:09:30Come on!
00:09:31Yeah, this is extremely personal for Athena.
00:09:34Athena, how many times she's been pinned since she's been champion is very, very, very few.
00:09:42So it's almost like she has to prove a point that it was a fluke in this match.
00:09:46And that's what she's trying to do with Harley Cameron.
00:09:48But Harley Cameron is looking for that opportunity to prove Athena wrong.
00:09:54And Harley Cameron.
00:09:55Shut up!
00:09:57Shut up!
00:09:58Trying to reach for the ropes.
00:09:59These losses have come so few and far between.
00:10:02We think back to the tag team match, which was two years ago now, Caprice.
00:10:05I guess that was the last time I can remember Athena being defeated in a Ring of Honor ring.
00:10:10But think about it, Riccobine.
00:10:12That means it's possible.
00:10:14And boom!
00:10:16On the senton there.
00:10:18And it is Harley Cameron around the world.
00:10:21Look at that.
00:10:21They're rolling up this time.
00:10:22One!
00:10:23To the stack.
00:10:24It's though.
00:10:25Still thinking ahead.
00:10:27Kick taking Harley Cameron.
00:10:29Leg hook.
00:10:30The two.
00:10:32And again, you're right.
00:10:33A lot of heart there.
00:10:34Athena not letting Harley go anywhere.
00:10:35Keeping that wrist control.
00:10:37Making sure she doesn't roll away.
00:10:38Now that seated mount.
00:10:40And just on top cover.
00:10:42Two!
00:10:44And think about Athena's journey.
00:10:46It started three years ago, Caprice.
00:10:48At final battle.
00:10:49Defeating Mercedes Martinez to win the ROH Women's World title.
00:10:54The last two years.
00:10:57Oh, come on.
00:10:59Yeah.
00:10:59Oh, my goodness.
00:11:01Slamming the face.
00:11:02Ripping at the face.
00:11:03This is more than personal, Riccobine.
00:11:06Well, I think as athletes get more desperate, I think that's when you see some of the corners
00:11:11being rounded.
00:11:12Some of the corners running through the corner instead of around the corner, so to speak.
00:11:16As no one home for Athena.
00:11:18Doesn't want to let this history-making run end.
00:11:20The first ever women's champion to main event final battle.
00:11:24Doing so two years in a row in trouble here against the challenger.
00:11:29Tell you what, man.
00:11:30If Cameron can stay focused, if she can win this thing, slain blade hits.
00:11:33And now it's the challenger, Harley Cameron, mounting the champion.
00:11:40Now Cameron can get in trouble here, turning this into a fight.
00:11:44And it's Harley Cameron.
00:11:47You're a wizard, Harley Cameron.
00:11:49Like hooks.
00:11:50Two and no.
00:11:54Should have put a little more on that spell to get the win there.
00:11:59Athena's still in this match.
00:12:00Cameron, focus.
00:12:02Never counting her out, and especially not counting herself out.
00:12:06The winner of this bout not only becomes the ROH Women's World Champion,
00:12:10but the winner goes to final battle, Columbus, Ohio.
00:12:14Two weeks from tomorrow.
00:12:17Live, an Honor Club exclusive event.
00:12:20Harley looking for Soul Food.
00:12:21Swing and a miss.
00:12:23Waistlock here.
00:12:24It is Athena.
00:12:26The waistlock now.
00:12:27Harley.
00:12:29Wait a minute.
00:12:29Rolls up.
00:12:30Rolls through.
00:12:31Two.
00:12:32Off the ropes.
00:12:32Watch out.
00:12:33Wow.
00:12:34Cover.
00:12:35Two.
00:12:36Oh, and Athena smartly trying to drive down herself.
00:12:40Those running feet in the cover.
00:12:43Intelligent move by the champion, but Harley with just too much heart.
00:12:47Tell you what, man.
00:12:47Athena is dangerous on every part of the ring.
00:12:51The ring awareness that Athena has, knowing where she was,
00:12:54knowing what she had to do, and doing it in that amount of time.
00:12:58That quick thinking, that wit thinking is why Athena's been champion for so long.
00:13:03But it's the heart of Harley Cameron right now, who is trying to prove that that pinfall was no fluke.
00:13:12Who's the best in the entire world?
00:13:14That, oh, that Harley Cameron is not a one-hit wonder.
00:13:18Who sucks?
00:13:19Oh, come on.
00:13:22Is that a kiss?
00:13:23I feel like I'm supposed to say, show enough or something.
00:13:26Look at this.
00:13:27It's Harley.
00:13:28Oh, Soul Food!
00:13:29Soul Food's hit Athena on the outside!
00:13:32You can't pin her on the outside, Rickabani.
00:13:35You have to put her back in.
00:13:36And Harley Cameron coming to the outside with Athena may be a dangerous thing,
00:13:40because Athena is very dangerous on the outside of the ring.
00:13:43If I was Cameron, I'd throw Athena right back in.
00:13:46Well, I was there.
00:13:47I called the match where Athena snapped.
00:13:50It was in Toronto.
00:13:51It was on the outside.
00:13:52When her opponent tried to do just this caprice, that was when the switch flipped.
00:13:57Harley is smartly attacking Athena while she can, but this might wake Athena back up.
00:14:03Yeah, she needs to put Athena back in the ring as soon as possible.
00:14:06Come on!
00:14:11Athena's walking and thinking.
00:14:13Trust and believe, Rickabani.
00:14:16Well, think about the street fight in Chicago.
00:14:18One of the very first Honor Club events.
00:14:21Think about the battles with Willow Nightingale that went to the outside with Athena.
00:14:25Think about the wars with Billy Starks that were on the outside.
00:14:28This is it!
00:14:30Yeah.
00:14:30Did you see the corner?
00:14:31The corner of that rail is what the back of Harley Cameron hit.
00:14:36I told you, Athena thinking.
00:14:38Oh, goodness!
00:14:39And this is where Athena goes to work!
00:14:43Cameron had a short amount of time to get Athena back in the ring.
00:14:46And now this world, I think, is a very unfamiliar world for Harley Cameron.
00:14:50But this is at home for Athena.
00:14:54This is my shot!
00:14:56Yep.
00:14:56This is my shot!
00:14:58Athena has been the centerpiece.
00:15:00She has been regularly and proudly on each and every week of ROH.
00:15:09Defending that title.
00:15:11Taking it to the proving ground.
00:15:12Tonight, looking to punch her and take it to the final battle.
00:15:15But taking a little bit of time as she goes to the top.
00:15:17Harley will take advantage there.
00:15:19And Athena.
00:15:28That right-hand block.
00:15:30It's Harley Cameron unloading now!
00:15:34And Athena.
00:15:35Athena's dead weight.
00:15:36Look at this!
00:15:38Athena off-balance as well.
00:15:39Harley Cameron in a great position.
00:15:41Yep.
00:15:42Superplex from the challenger!
00:15:44Can the challenger find the champion?
00:15:47She does!
00:15:48Pump-headle!
00:15:48Uh-oh!
00:15:49Caprice!
00:15:49We're going to have a new champion here!
00:15:51Pump-headle back!
00:15:52Suplex!
00:15:53The stack!
00:15:53The cover!
00:15:54Down!
00:15:55Harley Cameron!
00:15:55No!
00:15:56Nothing wrong with the move.
00:15:58Nothing wrong with the stack.
00:15:59Great pin attempt.
00:16:00The champion just not ready to relinquish.
00:16:03Frustration is not the name of the game.
00:16:05Harley Cameron, you need to get up.
00:16:07Keep it going.
00:16:08Move forward.
00:16:09She's doing a great job.
00:16:11Harley Cameron certainly has proved to me and to fans all over the world that the first
00:16:16pinfall on Athena was not a fluke on the verge, the precipice of becoming the ROH
00:16:22Women's World Champion, but it's a theme of the champion with a counter.
00:16:26No!
00:16:27No, Ruff!
00:16:28Uh-oh.
00:16:29Oh, trying to...
00:16:30Oh, Harley Cameron!
00:16:31She tried to hit Harley Cameron's finisher!
00:16:34Instead, it's Harley Cameron!
00:16:36The question mark kick there!
00:16:37Cameron!
00:16:38Backstabber!
00:16:39Those knees, the point of the knees, to the back, driving the air out of Athena.
00:16:45The challenger off the ropes.
00:16:47Around the waist.
00:16:48Cover!
00:16:48Trap!
00:16:49Legs locked!
00:16:50It's Cameron!
00:16:51It's Cameron!
00:16:52The STF!
00:16:53STF!
00:16:54Locked in!
00:16:57STF is locked in, Caprice!
00:16:59Great wrestling.
00:17:00Great wrestle.
00:17:01How far does Athena have to go?
00:17:02She knows where she is, but the closest rope is past Cameron's thighs.
00:17:07So, Athena has to move forward to break this.
00:17:11Oh, wait for Cameron to get too much momentum.
00:17:13Oh!
00:17:13Showed her how to roll it through.
00:17:16She's biting!
00:17:16And Cabral!
00:17:17She's biting!
00:17:18She's biting!
00:17:20Fighting!
00:17:20To keep her legacy intact!
00:17:23Fighting to keep this record-setting raid going!
00:17:26It's Athena now!
00:17:27Who's gonna scratch, claw, fight, do whatever she has to do!
00:17:32If that's not desperation, I don't know what is.
00:17:35Hot check!
00:17:36And using the ring as a weapon, it's Athena planting Harley into the coaching clutch!
00:17:44Athena with Harley Cameron trapped!
00:17:46And that's it!
00:17:47Athena has the final battle!
00:17:52The winner of this match, by submission, and still, Ring of Honor, Women's World Champion,
00:18:00Athena, and Athena came in tonight in the rare position of having to face someone that earned
00:18:12a pinfall in unfamiliar territory for Athena over the last three years here at ROH Caprice.
00:18:20A loss proven to be a bump in a row, now the momentum is back in the favor of the Forever
00:18:25Champion.
00:18:26Amazing effort from Harley Cameron.
00:18:32With the win, Athena's heading to final battle, but before we get there, this Saturday, full
00:18:37gear!
00:18:37Each action we take puts consequences in motion.
00:18:45A changing landscape!
00:18:47One interlocking into the next, until one inevitable event arrives.
00:18:53One of the biggest pay-per-view events of the year!

00:19:09The ROH Women's Pure Championship Tournament Bracket, Queen Almanada, Diana Peraza, they are set
00:19:19to meet Philly Starks, awaits her opponent on the right side of the bracket in the semifinals.
00:19:24And we will see her compete now in Pure Rules action.
00:19:28This match is set for one fall, and it will be contested under Pure Wrestling Rules.
00:19:37Approaching the ring, wrestling out of Louisville, Kentucky, Billy Starks!
00:19:44The youngest athlete ever to main event final battle, Billy Starks, who is 35-5 in her past
00:19:5240 ring of honor bouts, heading into the Pure Rules.
00:19:55We go back to Bobby Cruz for her opponent.
00:19:58Her opponent, Katie Arquette!
00:20:02Katie Arquette, an eight-year veteran, Capraison.
00:20:05No strangers to the Pure Rules are either of these athletes.
00:20:10Absolutely, but right now, in the semifinals, it's Billy Starks, and she's on a roll.
00:20:16Katie can try to stop that roll.
00:20:18The attitude of Billy Starks has been showing, even in a Pure Title Tournament.
00:20:23Absolutely has, and for fans who are unfamiliar or first-time beers with Ring of Honor's Pure Rules,
00:20:28each athlete gets three rope breaks.
00:20:30If an athlete, there is the first for Arquette.
00:20:33We'll take a pause here.
00:20:34Arquette went straight to the ropes there.
00:20:37Oh!
00:20:38Rope break number one used by Katie Arquette.
00:20:41And a front face lock, Starks!
00:20:42Just forcing Arquette to the ropes, and that's two.
00:20:45Gonna go back to Bobby again here.
00:20:48There you go!
00:20:50That is rope break number two used by Katie Arquette.
00:20:53And I gotta wonder, what's the record for the quickest rope break?
00:20:55We might have just seen it here, Caprice.
00:20:56What's the fastest we've seen somebody use all three?
00:21:03Well, each athlete gets three rope breaks.
00:21:04If they exhaust those rope breaks, they can be pinned on underneath between inside the ropes.
00:21:08You get one closed fist, a second results at a disqualification.
00:21:1220 count on the outside.
00:21:13If this match cover should go to a time limit draw to 10 minutes, it will go to the judges tonight.
00:21:20It is Chris Hero, Jerry Lindin, and Malenko who are judging this bout.
00:21:24Side headlock here.
00:21:24It's almost like Arquette's putting herself in trouble because she gets one more.
00:21:28She can be tapped or submitted inside the ropes.
00:21:30Come on, Billy!
00:21:31Going to him that fast, man.
00:21:32She's working against herself.
00:21:33Holding on to this headlock, though.
00:21:35Maybe helping her by time.
00:21:37But now Billy's holding on to the ropes here.
00:21:39It's not going to count against her.
00:21:41Yeah.
00:21:43That is rope break number one used by Billy Starks.
00:21:46Yep.
00:21:47And I don't know that Billy meant to do that.
00:21:49Interesting.
00:21:49It was that headlock.
00:21:50Oh!
00:21:51Whoa!
00:21:52Is that a close fist?
00:21:54Yep.
00:21:55Billy Starks has been issued a warning for the use of a close fist strike to her face.
00:21:59Well, now Billy clearly frustrated.
00:22:02Billy, the only semifinalist who does not yet know their opponent.
00:22:06She will face the winner of Yuka Sakasaki.
00:22:09Oh, goodness.
00:22:10It's Serena Deeb.
00:22:10The winners of the semifinal bouts will meet at final battle.
00:22:15We will crown the first ever women's pure champion.
00:22:18We will also, for the first time, have an AEW title defended on a Ring of Honor show.
00:22:22Caprice is right.
00:22:24New national tie.
00:22:25What?
00:22:26Cover.
00:22:27I won!
00:22:29We got to crown that champion first, Caprice.
00:22:31I tell you what, this frustration is not going to work in pure matches.
00:22:34And it works for Billy Starks, but pure wrestling is something that you have to be concentrated with.
00:22:39You have to be a thinker.
00:22:40You have to play chess.
00:22:42When everybody else is playing checkers, you can't be in there fighting like Billy Starks is doing.
00:22:46But the pedigree of all the people that Billy Starks has been hanging around has allowed her a momentum that can't be stopped.
00:22:5235-5.
00:22:54That's a great record to have.
00:22:56Yeah, it certainly is.
00:22:57Oh, Billy Starks, open hand.
00:22:58That's legal.
00:22:58Well, as Starks now looking for the Irish whip.
00:23:03We saw Serena Deeb this weekend hanging out with former men's pure champion Doug Williams.
00:23:09Beautiful DDT there.
00:23:11And Yuka Sakazaki saying it tip-top shape as well.
00:23:14Yeah.
00:23:14With all the attitude that Billy Starks has, she still has the mentality of keeping the rules in her head.
00:23:20I thought she was going for that starry crash there.
00:23:22Oh, front face lock here.
00:23:27And it is Starks.
00:23:29Arquette fighting out of the front face lock.
00:23:31Wrist lock.
00:23:32Oh.
00:23:33Wow.
00:23:34That's a lot of strength from Starks there.
00:23:37The momentum.
00:23:38Katie trying to keep it going.
00:23:39Katie.
00:23:40Head scissor.
00:23:41Nice.
00:23:42And plants Billy Starks.
00:23:46And charging in, Katie Arquette.
00:23:48Whoa.
00:23:49A hip attack, man.
00:23:50All the wind gone immediately.
00:23:52I don't think Katie's finished, Riccoboni.
00:23:55And I don't think so either.
00:23:58I'll let you call that one, Riccoboni.
00:24:00Come on, Katie.
00:24:00Well, the glutes, the largest muscle in the human body being driven into the sternum there.
00:24:05Oh, that's what that was?
00:24:06Okay, cool.
00:24:07You crack the sternum.
00:24:09You lose the breath.
00:24:10You lose your air.
00:24:11You lose your composure.
00:24:12You know, Caprice.
00:24:12Oh, goodness.
00:24:13You're right.
00:24:13Speaking of losing composure.
00:24:15Tearing at the eyes.
00:24:16It's Billy Starks.
00:24:17I mean, this is a pyramid.
00:24:18Right, Riccoboni?
00:24:20Well, it should be.
00:24:21Oh, goodness.
00:24:22That brain buster on the knee.
00:24:23That last shot style move.
00:24:26Cover.
00:24:27Two.
00:24:28Whoa.
00:24:29I can't kick out of that, but I believe this is it, man.
00:24:32I saw the eyes roll in the back of her head.
00:24:34Starks may be finishing.
00:24:35Yeah, that's going to be enough, man.
00:24:38And diving.
00:24:39Swan dive.
00:24:40Two.
00:24:40Got it.
00:24:41The winner of this match, Billie Starks.
00:24:48Billie Starks awaits her opponent in the semifinals.
00:24:51Final battle is the day we will crown the first ever.
00:24:55Code of Honor right here to the first ever.
00:24:57Oh, come on.
00:24:58Women's pure champion.
00:25:00And that is behavior not befitting of anything that's pure, Caprice.
00:25:04Absolutely not.
00:25:06But either way, we'll see the winner, Billie Starks.
00:25:10And we'll see her again in the semifinals.
00:25:13We certainly will.
00:25:14Billie Starks, the inaugural women's television champion.
00:25:17Of course, brand new unified champion crowd last night on Dynamite.
00:25:22What?
00:25:22Well, this is interesting.
00:25:27Billie Starks.
00:25:30Celebration interrupted.
00:25:33This match is set for one fall, and it will be contested under pure wrestling rules.
00:25:40Introducing first, wrestling out of Hackenstown, New Jersey,
00:25:44the virtuosa Diana Poraza.
00:25:48Oh, wait a minute.
00:25:49What is it?
00:25:50Billie, no.
00:25:50Billie took a little bit of offense to that as two semifinalists
00:25:58for an opposite ends of the bracket, Caprice.
00:26:01Tell you what, Diana Poraza has a way of calling out tickets before the X.
00:26:07But if you are that good,
00:26:10that confidence that comes with being a former ROH women's champion,
00:26:15one of the women that helped put the division on the map quite literally 10 years ago,
00:26:20in the match that restarted the women's division in Ring of Honor.
00:26:24Held the title through troubled waters.
00:26:27Looking to make history as the division's first pure champion.
00:26:30We go back to Bobby Cruz for her opponent.
00:26:32Her opponent, resident of Los Angeles, California,
00:26:36Viva Van!
00:26:38And Viva Van making her way to the ring.
00:26:44Great experience earned in CMLL as of late.
00:26:51Really developing, launching out of that New Japan Academy.
00:26:56But Caprice back to Diana for a minute.
00:26:58She may have counted her tickets before they hashed, but she was right.
00:27:01I mean, she looked past her opponent.
00:27:05And now she's got a date in the semifinals.
00:27:08And looking past her opponent again, maybe it's motivation.
00:27:11You know, I was thinking the same thing, Rick.
00:27:13I don't know if it's mind games or whatever it is,
00:27:15or the supreme confidence that Diana Poraza has.
00:27:19But you're right, man.
00:27:19She's been walking ahead of her competition
00:27:22and knocking them down on the way to the pier championship.
00:27:26So let's see if it continues to happen.
00:27:28Viva Van definitely looking for a breakout match.
00:27:31And this may be the one, especially if she gets to win over Diana Poraza.
00:27:36Code of Honor right here, too.
00:27:38Fans, this is a pure rules bout.
00:27:40Much like our last bout, Diana is 7-0 in pure rules matches.
00:27:46Yeah, yeah.
00:27:47I mean, think about that.
00:27:48And only Lee Moriarty has that type of record on the men's side.
00:27:52He'll kick and knock anybody out with the body.
00:27:54And it may have to...
00:27:57Lee Moriarty, of course, the record-breaking champion commander.
00:28:00Let's not forget, went the distance in the proving ground.
00:28:05Commander Moriarty on a collision course.
00:28:07It is Poraza, though, semifinalist in the women's division tournament.
00:28:11Up and over.
00:28:12Yeah, Moriarty, man, has been one of the more impressive pure champions I've ever seen.
00:28:16Beating who I felt was probably the best pure champion in Nigel McGuinness.
00:28:21Now he's proven it again.
00:28:23But Diana Poraza...
00:28:24When she beat Trisha Doerr...
00:28:28It's no joke, man.
00:28:29Trisha's been training with the longest-ringing pure champ, Lee Moriarty.
00:28:32That's saying something.
00:28:33Diana knows what she's doing.
00:28:34Trisha Doerr's been at the New Japan Academy as well.
00:28:41And Lee Moriarty, of course.
00:28:43Oh!
00:28:44That kind of background, that kind of pedigree, those kind of reps really help out.
00:28:50And it's Poraza, though, who's like a surgeon.
00:28:54A tactician in the ring.
00:28:56This exchange, though.
00:28:57Beba, man, we've seen the fire.
00:28:58We've seen it at CMLL.
00:29:00We've seen it in New Japan, and we've certainly seen it here at ROH.
00:29:04These two women going open hand for open hand.
00:29:06Beba Van, like I said, she's looking for that opportunity.
00:29:09Every time we see Beba Van, she's just that close to capturing a win that's going to mean something.
00:29:15And another kick to the head.
00:29:17To Diana Poraza, how many kicks to the head can you take before it begins to affect you?
00:29:21After more!
00:29:22Beautiful axe kick there from Beba Van.
00:29:27And the cover now.
00:29:28Two!
00:29:30And we've seen Poraza attack with a surgeon's precision.
00:29:34The arms, the shoulders.
00:29:36She likes that Fujiwar.
00:29:37She likes the Venus de Milo.
00:29:39She is the virtuoso.
00:29:40But it's Beba Van with the advantage right now.
00:29:42Beba Van with the advantage.
00:29:43She's taking a little long to get to that top rope.
00:29:46Poraza seeing that Beba Van.
00:29:48She protects herself, but not enough time to recover.
00:29:54And side rush and light sweep.
00:29:56This is where Deanna starts to go to work.
00:29:58Caprice, Fujiwar locked in.
00:30:00We'll roll through.
00:30:01Oh, wait a minute.
00:30:02Two!
00:30:02Oh, two count there.
00:30:03Deanna reaches it back.
00:30:05Right back to it.
00:30:06How resilient.
00:30:08And look at that rotator cuff bend.
00:30:11And Beba Van doing the smart thing, trying to sink that shoulder in and away to alleviate the pressure.
00:30:16Trying to get to the rope she downs.
00:30:17One, two, three.
00:30:20Going to be a rope break here.
00:30:21That is rope break number one used by Beba Van.
00:30:24The thing about that arm bar is Beba Van can continue to go back to it as soon as she gets it in.
00:30:30And now she's going to make it a focal point.
00:30:32Oh!
00:30:34Beba Van.
00:30:36That mouse game here luring Poraza toward the apron.
00:30:40And that's like the fifth kick to the head of Poraza.
00:30:44Rainbow to temp.
00:30:45That's going to mess your timing up.
00:30:47Yeah, and it was that arm.
00:30:49Beba Van couldn't plant with the arm to push herself up.
00:30:53Poraza.
00:30:54The damage already done.
00:30:55And Poraza with a power bomb.
00:30:57The stack.
00:30:58Two.
00:30:59Oh, Poraza.
00:31:00Right back to that arm.
00:31:01Send a message.
00:31:03And Poraza with one.
00:31:06Looking and gets it.
00:31:08The winner of this match by submission, Deanna Poraza.
00:31:15Deanna Poraza looking toward the semifinals.
00:31:21Fixated on the goal of becoming the first ever ROH Women's Spirit Champion.
00:31:28History will be made at final battle.
00:31:31Will the name of the history, folks, read Deanna Poraza.
00:31:34Tell you what, with the momentum and the confidence that Deanna Poraza has been walking in and around with.
00:31:42It seems like it's only a matter of time, Riccoboni.
00:31:46But only time will tell.
00:31:47Oh, wait a minute.
00:31:48And Billy Starks, who could not get over the fact that Poraza stole her spotlight.
00:31:58Interrupted the victory.
00:32:00Oh!
00:32:01How many kicks to the head now has Poraza taken?
00:32:06Those kicks to the head can affect you in the future.
00:32:11Caprice, you're right.
00:32:12Poraza's.
00:32:14The lights are turned off.
00:32:15At Billy Starks, if Poraza's not moving.
00:32:22Yeah, we need some attention out here.
00:32:24As Billy Starks trying to future-proof her plans for final battle.
00:32:29And joined Athena in Columbus, Ohio in just over two weeks.
00:32:32And speaking of fans, I understand CMLL star Persephone has something to say.
00:32:37Athena, the fallen goddess, Perse la Diosa.
00:32:40The goddess of CMLL.
00:32:42Together, we could have been something divine.
00:32:47But I'm no minion.
00:32:49In fact, I've been running through all the women of Ring of Honor.
00:32:52I think I even beat you and Red Velvet in Global Wars, Mexico.
00:32:58So now I'm calling my shot for final battle.
00:33:01Because cada cuento tiene su fin.
00:33:04Every story has its end.
00:33:06And yours has been going on for far, far, far too long.
00:33:11And your story is going to end with Perse taking that Ring of Honor Women's World Championship.
00:33:18And that's a big challenge.
00:33:23Almost as big as this man.
00:33:24Whoa-ho-ho.
00:33:24Whoa-ho-ho.
00:33:31This match is set for one fall with a 20-minute time limit.
00:33:35Introducing first, Ruskan of Punjab, India.
00:33:39Weighing 404 pounds.
00:33:42He is one in a billion.
00:33:45And Satnam Singh.
00:33:49Look at how chiseled Satnam Singh is.
00:33:53I've never in my life saw somebody weigh over 400 pounds that looked like this.
00:33:59Ever.
00:33:59Here's the opponent, J.P. Grayson.
00:34:02J.P. Grayson, a great young athlete.
00:34:07This is his ROH debut, 10-year veteran.
00:34:10Unfortunately, sometimes the card you draw on the deck, Caprice, is a one in a billion, well over seven feet, 400-pound athlete.
00:34:19Yeah, I'm putting my cards back in the deck.
00:34:22Yeah.
00:34:24Satnam Singh undefeated here in ROH.
00:34:26He was taken in the NBA draft by the Dallas Mavericks, 2015.
00:34:31He's never been pinned or submitted.
00:34:35Oh, look at this.
00:34:36Has a great relationship with Jay Lethal, who, as we know...
00:34:39Whoa-ho-ho-ho.
00:34:42Oh, man.
00:34:44Victorious earlier.
00:34:45Has some issues with Blake Christian.
00:34:50Everybody has issues with Blake Christian.
00:34:52Yeah, I was just thinking the same thing.
00:34:54Whether it's Bandito.
00:34:57What's up?
00:34:58You name it.
00:34:59Oh, it's...
00:35:00One more.
00:35:01Yeah.
00:35:02Oh!
00:35:04You know, Satnam's had that voice since 6th grade.
00:35:07Can you imagine that?
00:35:08Yeah.
00:35:09Did a tree fall?
00:35:10Did it get struck by lightning?
00:35:12It's the only thing I can equate to that sound.
00:35:13But it can only be struck...
00:35:15It can only be lightning if it can only happen once.
00:35:18But I don't think it's lightning because it's about to happen again, Rickabani.
00:35:21So...
00:35:21The words of Chris Springsteen...
00:35:25Yeah, I don't think it was lightning.
00:35:28I don't think it was lightning.
00:35:30Thundercrack.
00:35:31Baby's back, too, for poor JP Grayson.
00:35:36Oh, no.
00:35:36Not through...
00:35:37Oh.
00:35:38I love Satnam, but...
00:35:39Oh, my...
00:35:41Look at the...
00:35:42Yeah!
00:35:43Yeah!
00:35:45JP Grayson, one of the backseat boys.
00:35:47I bet you he wished he was in the backseat that time.
00:35:50Well...
00:35:50I'm...
00:35:51I'm thinking what he...
00:35:53Grayson's feeling.
00:35:53Oh, no one home there.
00:35:55And Grayson's got a stick and move.
00:35:56I...
00:35:56I got...
00:35:57I love his heart here.
00:35:58Absolutely.
00:35:59Great shake.
00:36:01Nice drop kick.
00:36:02Only thing happened is he drop kicked a wall.
00:36:06Well, that'll do it.
00:36:07Well, it ducks the...
00:36:08Ducks the boot.
00:36:09Oh, good.
00:36:12JP Grayson, 10 feet in the air.
00:36:14Yeah, I guarantee you.
00:36:15Grayson's never been that high before.
00:36:20That oven-mint hand, that frying pan-sized hand.
00:36:25Up and down goes Grayson.
00:36:29One, two, three.
00:36:34The winner of this match, Satnam Singh.
00:36:38What a victory, Satnam Singh, as we head this weekend toward full gear in beautiful Newark,
00:36:50New Jersey, including the main event.
00:36:52The AEW World Championship is on the line as Hagman Adam Page defends against former champion
00:36:57Samoa Joe inside of the steel cage.
00:37:00How many belts can she hold?
00:37:01I'm not sure, but Mercedes Monet once more, as Chris Statlander defends the AEW Women's
00:37:07World Title against Mercedes Monet.
00:37:10And, of course, talking about championships, we will crown a first-ever champion as the
00:37:15Casino Gauntlet will crown the first-ever AEW National Champion.
00:37:19And our Ring of Honor World Champion is in action as Brodito defends the AEW World Tag Team
00:37:25Championship against FTR.
00:37:27And the tag team match I'm looking forward to is RPG Vice.
00:37:34Will they get what they have coming to them when Boom and Doom team up?
00:37:39It's Big Boom AGQT taking on RPG Vice.
00:37:49I swear, Bernard the Business Bear is here at Caprice.
00:37:53This match is set for one fall in a 20-minute time limit.
00:37:55Introducing first the company by Preston Vance, Griff Garrison and Cole Carter, weighing 225 pounds
00:38:02and representing the Frat House, Jeff Jamison.
00:38:07Had to do a little bit of a double-take.
00:38:09We normally see the trio.
00:38:10Remember who you say?
00:38:11Frat House!
00:38:14In a live performance this week, Caprice.
00:38:16Jamison has gear and a mic.
00:38:18All right, Boston.
00:38:19Easy.
00:38:20Now, listen.
00:38:21Boston, make some noise if you like to drink.
00:38:23You guys think Boston is the city where the best party?
00:38:34Well, you're wrong.
00:38:36What?
00:38:36You're just a bunch of fat idiots that are alcoholics.
00:38:40The Frat House!
00:38:41I thought it was tea, but okay.
00:38:43It's not a good thing.
00:38:44It's not a good thing.
00:38:45The Frat House is where the best party, and tonight, after I win my first singles match
00:38:52here in Ring of Honor against QT Marshall, we're going to tear this city up!
00:38:58Vance, tell them why!
00:39:01Boston, the number one rule!
00:39:04Win or lose, we booze!
00:39:07Well, Jack Jamison returning to action in single competition.
00:39:16Big win!
00:39:18Well, he could do great cheese on those abs, Caprice.
00:39:21There's no other name that fits Jack Jamison, man.
00:39:25Absolutely, but he has his hands full here tonight.
00:39:29His work cut out for him as he faces one half of Boob and Doom.
00:39:35He will have a huge tag team bout this Saturday.
00:39:41Hey, Frat idiots!
00:39:43Go!
00:39:46Hey, I see four of you guys, and I see only one of me, and I know I'm not from Boston,
00:39:52but I think they would agree it's probably not too smart for me to come out here on my own,
00:39:57but you guys want to bring the booze.
00:40:02How about I?
00:40:04I bring the booze!
00:40:06I bring the booze!
00:40:06Okay!
00:40:07Whoa!
00:40:09We bring the booze!
00:40:10All right!
00:40:13Yeah!
00:40:17Yeah!
00:40:21We knew they were here tonight!
00:40:24Chip!
00:40:26And look at this!
00:40:29QT!
00:40:30Big Boom AJ!
00:40:31That fan!
00:40:36Oh my goodness!
00:40:37Big Justice here on the right!
00:40:41And these fans are loving what they're seeing from this father-son duo here!
00:40:45I said...
00:40:46To watch the back of QT Marshall!
00:40:50And what an unusual sight, though, Caprice, right?
00:40:53I mean, this is...
00:40:53Really personifying...
00:40:55Really personifying...
00:40:57I'm sorry, I was rocking out, Rickabine.
00:40:59I don't blame you!
00:41:02The enemy of the enemy is my friend!
00:41:07Man, Big Boom AJ looking yoked right now.
00:41:12I think they got us in the rap, Rickabine.
00:41:15That's right!
00:41:17Well, whenever Mikey Ruckus wants us to let us lay down that willow track, we can talk.
00:41:21But Big Boom AJ...
00:41:22You know what I'm saying?
00:41:23I'm ready for it.
00:41:23That's right!
00:41:25QT is chiseled, man!
00:41:28Yeah!
00:41:29And QT is built for function, too.
00:41:31He is ready for this weekend when he and Big Boom AJ will take on RPG Vice of the Don Callis family tailgate brawl.
00:41:38The potential center, a bit of a homecoming for both QT and Big Boom AJ.
00:41:43QT, of course, from New Jersey.
00:41:47And Jack Jamison to the outside.
00:41:51I am so impressed how Jack Jamison's hat stays on his head.
00:41:55Whoa!
00:41:57Oh, it's off now.
00:41:58Yeah!
00:42:01And there's a shot of Big Justice.
00:42:04Now, if their thing is the double-chunk chocolate cookie, was that the quadruple-chunk chocolate frat?
00:42:11What are we going to call that?
00:42:13There was four of them on the outside.
00:42:15Rickabine, only you can get away with saying chocolate frat house.
00:42:18I'm going to call the match.
00:42:20Oh, look at this!
00:42:21Shots in the forehead there!
00:42:24Up and...
00:42:25Whoa!
00:42:27Now, that is an up and over.
00:42:30And if anybody knows who's teaching a chef, it is Jack Jamison.
00:42:35Oh, come on.
00:42:37It's attack on the outside.
00:42:39Both coming out of Nightmare Factory.
00:42:43And you're absolutely right, Caprice.
00:42:45Jack Jamison.
00:42:47He was one of the prized pupils at one point of the Nightmare Factory.
00:42:53So there is some history.
00:42:54Absolutely.
00:42:56And underlying tension.
00:42:57He's clearly got the body, the drive.
00:43:01Willie put it together with the experience in the ring.
00:43:04And if you know somebody like QT Marshall, you know, you're familiar with his movements just like that.
00:43:11Two!
00:43:12Whoa!
00:43:13That spine bustle was only from anticipation, Rickabine.
00:43:16He knew the movements of QT Marshall to Jack Jamison.
00:43:21And...
00:43:21Whoa!
00:43:22No one home!
00:43:22But speaking of knowing the movements, the anticipation of Marshall there.
00:43:27Yep.
00:43:27Giving QT the edge.
00:43:28He called that 100%.
00:43:30100% Rickabine.
00:43:32Absolutely.
00:43:34And AJ at big justice.
00:43:37This capacity crowd here.
00:43:40Boom and doom.
00:43:42Looking like peanut butter and jelly right now.
00:43:44Whoa!
00:43:44Handspring.
00:43:45Whoa!
00:43:46It's Higari.
00:43:47Okay, QT.
00:43:49He called it for a cookie cutter.
00:43:51Yeah, looking like chocolate chip cookies and a chicken bake.
00:43:54Uh-oh.
00:43:55Got it!
00:43:56That's the cookie cutter.
00:43:58One, two, three.
00:44:00Got it!
00:44:02Who will earn this match?
00:44:04QT Marshall!
00:44:06Well, QT and Big Boom embrace.
00:44:09They will have to deal with the numbers game tomorrow.
00:44:14The numbers game on Saturday at the tailgate brawl.
00:44:17When AJ, QT, take on RPG Vice of the Don Callis family.
00:44:22What's this, Caprice?
00:44:24You guys are clearly outnumbered here.
00:44:27But I see right here, in the middle, a bad situation.
00:44:32Oh!
00:44:33Hot win!
00:44:33Justice is served!
00:44:34That's Big Justice!
00:44:35Big Justice get him all out!
00:44:37QT with the feel, the uppercut.
00:44:39Right here, right here, right here.
00:44:40And Big Boom with Cole Carter.
00:44:43Uh-oh.
00:44:44And AJ!
00:44:45Oh!
00:44:46Oh!
00:44:46Oh!
00:44:48He's got a power boom, maybe.
00:44:53Oh, no.
00:44:57Oh, he's not here, is he?
00:45:02Uh-oh.
00:45:03Oh, that's Asuka, Rocky Romero.
00:45:07Trent Barretta, RPG Vice.
00:45:14And we will see these two teams do battle.
00:45:18The animosity.
00:45:19The emotion.
00:45:20And we're not going to wait until Saturday.
00:45:22We can't wait until Saturday.
00:45:24It's QT and Trent.
00:45:26Big Boom and Rocky.
00:45:27Oh, oh, oh, wow.
00:45:30Wow.
00:45:30Trent right through the low blow.
00:45:33This is not a match, man.
00:45:34It's a fight.
00:45:37And Big Boom trying to do the best he can against both members of RPG Vice here.
00:45:42Oh, that Big Right takes Barretta down.
00:45:46We'll go for another power boom.
00:45:49The power boom.
00:45:49And it's Rocky.
00:45:54And QT is incapacitated after that vicious low blow.
00:45:58And what does Trent have?
00:45:59That cast.
00:46:00That cast.
00:46:01Oh, my goodness.
00:46:04And surely that cast is not what meets the eye.
00:46:08Surely stuck with that steel rod.
00:46:11Where's the boy?
00:46:13Where's the boy?
00:46:14Oh, no.
00:46:15And Barretta.
00:46:16Oh.
00:46:18Attacking a man in front of his son.
00:46:21Right in front of.
00:46:22Oh, no.
00:46:23Big Justice.
00:46:25Oh, Big Justice.
00:46:28Oh, Rocky, you're better than this.
00:46:30You're better.
00:46:30Oh.
00:46:33Rocky Romero.
00:46:34Just didn't know what to do there, man.
00:46:36I don't blame him.
00:46:37Come on, man.
00:46:38This is over.
00:46:39Yeah.
00:46:39I've seen your father get it.
00:46:42No, come on.
00:46:43That wrist, that wrist, that hand is trapped.
00:46:45If anybody knows better, and this is Trent.
00:46:47Absolutely.
00:46:49No, Rocky.
00:46:51Rocky, you're better than this.
00:46:52Come on.
00:46:53No.
00:46:57Unbelievable.
00:46:58The eyes of Big Justice say it all.
00:47:01That says it every bit of it.
00:47:06In front of the man's own son.
00:47:07How disgusting.
00:47:10The Don Callis family RPG Vice has reached a new role.
00:47:14Last night, history was made as an undisputed ROH Women's World Television Champion was crowned.
00:47:23Chris, did you see that?
00:47:25More like, did you feel that?
00:47:28That was just a little preview of what's to come at full gear.
00:47:32You want to say that I'm not focused?
00:47:34I am more focused than I've ever been in my whole career.
00:47:38Who the hell do you think you're talking to?
00:47:40You're talking to me, Mercedes Monet.
00:47:43Ultimo Monet.
00:47:44Number one woman's wrestler in the world.
00:47:46And you're saying that I'm not focused?
00:47:5013 Belts Monet is not focused?
00:47:55I'm going to show you how focused I am at full gear, Chris, when I take your precious AEW
00:48:02Women's World title.
00:48:04Because you're talking to the best.
00:48:05You're talking to the greatest.
00:48:07You're talking to Suna B.
00:48:0814 Belts Monet.
00:48:11Thanksgiving is the time of year that we conglomerate with loved ones.
00:48:22And those not so loved.
00:48:24The dramatic and the loud, quiet types.
00:48:28And those who are down on their luck.
00:48:30So, who brought the bird?
00:48:33I got it!
00:48:34I hope everyone brought their appetite.
00:48:36Join the AEW family for a special Thanksgiving Eve Dynamite and Thanksgiving Collision.
00:48:44It's going to get wild!
00:48:51And it's a huge holiday week for AEW.
00:48:55Of course, full gear coming up this Saturday.
00:48:59This match is set for one holiday, 20-minute time limit.
00:49:02Introducing first, West Coast, El Paso, Texas.
00:49:04It's Persephone!
00:49:09Caprice, there is so many things you can say about Persephone, including the winner of
00:49:13the 2025 CMLL Grand Prix as we go back to Bobby Cruz.
00:49:19Who put it?
00:49:20Valentina Rossi!
00:49:22Valentina Rossi, very exciting.
00:49:24But Persephone's credentials provide a gigantic challenge.
00:49:28And Persephone, she wants Athena, the forever champion, with the ROH Women's World title on
00:49:33the line.
00:49:34There's some people that have an aura about them that rides confidence, and that is Persephone.
00:49:40The total package, man.
00:49:42Strong, fierce, and confidence, and young.
00:49:45At everything she does, she has been very fast learner.
00:49:49And the right pedigree with you.
00:49:51Oh, look at this.
00:49:53Right away, Persephone, that Grand Prix, one of the biggest matches in CMLL, defeating international
00:49:59stars from all over the globe.
00:50:01Persephone holds a victory over Red Velvet in single competition.
00:50:05And also a victory over Athena in tag team action.
00:50:09No stranger to some of the biggest stars in AEW and Ring of Honor, including at Forbidden Door,
00:50:14when she went toe-to-toe with Mercedes-Money, the now undisputed women's TV champion.
00:50:18Known for strength and power, this agility that Persephone has.
00:50:27Oh!
00:50:28Two!
00:50:29Two count there.
00:50:30I'll say this.
00:50:32If anybody has the credentials to challenge the forever champion, it is certainly Persephone.
00:50:37Oh!
00:50:37Whose resume speaks for itself.
00:50:38Valentina Rossi.
00:50:40Cover.
00:50:41Two.
00:50:42Two?
00:50:43Yeah.
00:50:44You wanna mess with me?
00:50:46Huh?
00:50:46I wouldn't mess with Persephone Caprice.
00:50:48Fassi not being denied here.
00:50:51Boom!
00:50:55Persephone's gonna have to be able to endure more than this, Riccobani.
00:50:58Well, certainly, I mean, there's gotta be some nerves calling your shot out like that,
00:51:04but her credentials are almost unbound.
00:51:07Oh!
00:51:08Again, that spider counter.
00:51:10Wow!
00:51:13Blew it with it as well, being able to do it whenever she feels like it.
00:51:16Persephone.
00:51:17Oh!
00:51:18Rossi around!
00:51:20One.
00:51:21Just a one count there.
00:51:22Both women back to their feet.
00:51:24Casadora there.
00:51:26They roll up.
00:51:27Two.
00:51:27And we've seen Persephone the powerhouse, but she has that endurance caprice.
00:51:31You have to, to win that gigantic CMLL Grand Prix match.
00:51:34You're the best in the world!
00:51:36Come together in Arena Mexico.
00:51:38Mexico to determine who is the best Mexico or internationally cover.
00:51:43Two.
00:51:46Power and agility are a dangerous combination, and the only other person I know, a Ring of
00:51:51Honor women's roster that has that, is Athena.
00:51:53Well, you're absolutely right, and look at this.
00:51:59Persephone.
00:52:02And how about Mercedes-Money last night, Caprice?
00:52:04Yeah.
00:52:04Got the, the undisputed women's television champion.
00:52:09Great counter there from Rossi.
00:52:11Leg hooks.
00:52:12One.
00:52:12Two.
00:52:13Two.
00:52:14One.
00:52:15Two.
00:52:16Oh!
00:52:16I think I've seen Monet stand at the end of a rainbow.
00:52:22Right with all that gold.
00:52:23That pot of gold.
00:52:24It was all built, so.
00:52:28Front face lock, and it was a great homecoming for Monet, of course.
00:52:32And shots to the midsection.
00:52:34And nice bridge.
00:52:36Roll through.
00:52:37I like it.
00:52:38Oh, beautiful snatches, Rossi, here by the, by the scalp.
00:52:44Persephone closing that distance, not wasting any time.
00:52:47Crucifix.
00:52:48Oh, the strength of Persephone.
00:52:52Wow!
00:52:52That's gotta be enough.
00:52:54Rossi went for a run.
00:52:56Two.
00:52:57That's it.
00:53:00The winner of this match, Persephone.
00:53:04Heading into final battle, you will find it hard-pressed to locate a woman with the resume,
00:53:13the credentials, and the what-have-you-done-for-me-lately.
00:53:17That Persephone, oh, wait a minute.
00:53:20She has gotten attention to the champion.
00:53:23Absolute.
00:53:26And here she is, after successfully defending the ROH Women's World title earlier tonight
00:53:32against Harley Cameron, it's the champ, Athena.
00:53:36I don't think Athena likes people to have wins over her, be it that it's singles or tag team.
00:53:43And Persephone is one of those people.
00:53:44Very, very short-list Caprice.
00:53:50Low single digits.
00:53:53And Athena, whose legacy started three years ago at final battle when she captured the ROH Women's World title.
00:54:00Will it come to an end?
00:54:04Will it come to a fork in the road?
00:54:05Could we see these two great athletes meet at final battle?
00:54:11Raw, rough, and rugged is Persephone.
00:54:14Fine-tuned is Athena.
00:54:17Over 1,000 days are Women's Champion.
00:54:18And right here, we may be seeing the end of the road at final battle.
00:54:25Wait a minute.
00:54:26Damn, I'll tell you.
00:54:28But we've wondered, is she still under the tutelage of Athena?
00:54:32This is my show!
00:54:34Yes, she's still under the minion, Overlord.
00:54:39Oh, not this.
00:54:40We haven't seen this in weeks.
00:54:41We have not seen this in weeks.
00:54:43This is my show!
00:54:44Don't you ever forget it!
00:54:46Look at the forehead of Persephone.
00:54:55You can see already, man.
00:54:57The laceration starting.
00:55:00Wow.
00:55:01And this is the behavior of a woman
00:55:04who feels like she may be backed into the corner,
00:55:07trying to regain control as we head toward the final battle.
00:55:09It was thought the age of honor had passed.
00:55:17And the foot of the road!
00:55:18As the dishonorable.
00:55:20Prosper.
00:55:21I am forever.
00:55:24But from the shadows, a vigilante has emerged.
00:55:28He's the hero Oroich deserves, and the one it needs right now.
00:55:32And with him, honor will rise.
00:55:38Ring of Honor.
00:55:40Final battle.
00:55:45Final battle a little over two weeks away.
00:55:47Athena not taking Persephone's challenge kindly.
00:55:50Talk about getting a front row seat.
00:55:56Last week, these two gentlemen had a front row seat for Sky Flight.
00:56:00This tag team match is done for one ball in 20-minute time limit.
00:56:04Approaching the ring to be accompanied by Trish Adora.
00:56:07And a combined weight of 401 pounds.
00:56:10They are two-thirds of the Ring of Honor.
00:56:12World's six-man tag team champions.
00:56:14The captain, Sean Dean.
00:56:17Bad news and tattoos, Cody Bravo.
00:56:20Representing Shane Taylor Promotions.
00:56:23The infantry.
00:56:28Infantry, two-thirds of the ROH World's six-man tag team titles.
00:56:32Two men that really put ROH on Honor Club on their back.
00:56:36As did Trish Adora.
00:56:37They served our country caprice, but they're out for a fight here tonight.
00:56:40And I've been going for a ride.
00:56:44I fight my take to the sky.
00:56:49Their opponents being accompanied by Christopher Daniels and Layla Gray.
00:56:54Prescott of Minneapolis, Minnesota.
00:56:56And a combined weight of 430 pounds.
00:56:59They're representing Sky Flight.
00:57:01Dante and Terry Spontane.
00:57:05Top Flight.
00:57:08Much like the infantry caprice.
00:57:10Top Flight has become a fixture here in ROH.
00:57:14But for weeks, for months, for the greater part of the last two years,
00:57:18we knew there was just one missing ingredient.
00:57:21Top Flight has found several ingredients and they all mix in.
00:57:28Sky Flight really on a roll right now.
00:57:30I think the biggest mix in right there is that man in the corner, Christopher Daniels.
00:57:34Ever since Christopher Daniels has had Sky Flight under his wing, they've been virtually indestructible in Ring of Honor.
00:57:42Oh, kicked.
00:57:43And we are off here.
00:57:44Tag team action.
00:57:46And that's really a parallel tale for both teams.
00:57:50Shane Taylor really helping lift the infantry to the next level.
00:57:54Christopher Daniels helping lift Sky Flight to the next level.
00:57:56But let's not forget, if you remember, tag made back in 2019.
00:58:01Who ended Christopher Daniels' ROH career?
00:58:04That was Shane Taylor.
00:58:05It certainly was.
00:58:06Big boot there.
00:58:08Forearm connects.
00:58:09And now it's Dante Martin into the corner.
00:58:12Sending.
00:58:13Carly Bravo.
00:58:14Tag is made.
00:58:15Yeah, not just any corner, right to the right corner.
00:58:18Dante tagged Darius.
00:58:20Dante back in.
00:58:21Santon pulled over.
00:58:22Nice up and over, right into his brother.
00:58:26And great combination there.
00:58:29And it is Dante and Martin.
00:58:33You dusted that one off early, Rick Abani.
00:58:37Got to strike while the iron's hot.
00:58:39As Darius sending Carly Bravo in the cover.
00:58:44One.
00:58:45You know, Caprice, I love both these teams' gears.
00:58:47Very toyetic looks for both the infantry and for top flight.
00:58:52Got to give a shout-out to our friends at Jazwares.
00:58:54The Jazwares Vault.
00:58:55Limited quantities.
00:58:56Tags made.
00:58:57And FTR will be challenging for the AEW World Tag Team titles this weekend.
00:59:02Oh, goodness.
00:59:04And the Briscoes.
00:59:05JazwaresVault.com to make sure you get those.
00:59:08Make great gifts this holiday season.
00:59:11Had another move through the sequence of infantry there with that inside spear.
00:59:17Carly Bravo.
00:59:19Decapped.
00:59:20John Dean.
00:59:22Continue to get better even as champions.
00:59:26As we think about final battle, two weeks from tomorrow, Caprice.
00:59:31Tag made.
00:59:32Just what it would mean to the infantry.
00:59:35They've dreamt of becoming champions.
00:59:37They've dreamt of really making their mark in Ring of Honor.
00:59:42That signature final battle bout.
00:59:46That's one thing on the resume.
00:59:49Oh, that the infantry has not yet achieved.
00:59:51Cover.
00:59:52Two.
00:59:52Well, the infantry is going to do everything they can to hold on to those titles.
00:59:58And they're going to have to almost kill this man right here.
01:00:00Get a title out of his hand.
01:00:01He sleeps with that belt.
01:00:02That's Carly Bravo.
01:00:04Oh.
01:00:04What do you call him, Sixie?
01:00:07He's got a cute name for it.
01:00:09Yeah.
01:00:09Down low.
01:00:11Takes it out to dinner.
01:00:12He does.
01:00:13Cover.
01:00:13Two.
01:00:16Two count there.
01:00:17I mean, you know what I would do.
01:00:18I would sleep.
01:00:19If I was the six-man, if I was one-third of the six-man champs, if me, you, and Gary Jester
01:00:22got back together, I would tag main in the corner.
01:00:26I would sleep with it.
01:00:27I'd put it under the pillow.
01:00:29That's exactly what Carly Bravo does.
01:00:32Very smart move there by Sean Dean going to the bread basket instead of the head.
01:00:37A lot of team members do.
01:00:39I think that's exactly what Dante was looking for, to duck with that bread basket that takes
01:00:43the win out of you, especially if you hit the liver in there.
01:00:46It forces you to stay on your knees.
01:00:49Absolutely.
01:00:50Very smart, tactical move from the captain.
01:00:54He sends, oh, Dante, end of the corner.
01:00:57Eye on his shoulders there.
01:01:00Uh-oh.
01:01:04He said BBC.
01:01:05Oh.
01:01:07That's Bronco bust cap.
01:01:10That's what that is.
01:01:11And driving again, the glutes into the sternum.
01:01:16A popular move because it works.
01:01:18Cover.
01:01:19Oh, Dante smartly finding the ropes.
01:01:22Just in case you wanted to know what that meant, Riccoboni.
01:01:24I was hoping someone would explain it to me as captain Sean Dean.
01:01:28Yep.
01:01:29Into the corner, tag made.
01:01:32And every once in a while, we have a couple moves that we got to explain to the fans.
01:01:35Shot to the, again, it was on the opposite side of the liver, but still very painful.
01:01:43Inverted atomic drop.
01:01:44And, oh, Dante fighting out of a bad situation here.
01:01:50Oh, he's fighting.
01:01:51Trying to fight his way out of that corner, too.
01:01:53He's going to have to get past both men.
01:01:55Oh.
01:01:55He's trapped.
01:01:56Halfway side of the ring.
01:01:57Duck under.
01:01:58Carly ducks through with a nice net break.
01:02:01Leg hooked.
01:02:03Two.
01:02:04Two count there.
01:02:06Ali oops the ankle.
01:02:07There you go.
01:02:09Beautiful move there by Carly Bravo.
01:02:12That's Christopher Daniels.
01:02:13That's so smooth, man.
01:02:13That's it over now.
01:02:14That's a big arm.
01:02:15Christopher Daniels.
01:02:17Grand Slam champion here at All-H.
01:02:20Trying to get the crowd.
01:02:22Trying to really get some noise going.
01:02:24So Dante can reorient himself.
01:02:26Put himself closer to Daniels.
01:02:28But more importantly, closer to Darius Martin.
01:02:30Exactly what Daniels is doing, Riccoboni.
01:02:32He's getting that noise to let you know where to go to.
01:02:35Even though you can't see me, you can hear me.
01:02:37Follow the noise.
01:02:39But it's hard to do when you have someone like Carly Bravo
01:02:42cutting off your windpipe.
01:02:45And it is Bravo.
01:02:46Oh, look at this.
01:02:47Steen in.
01:02:49And a move.
01:02:52He's smart again.
01:02:53There was no tag.
01:02:53Yeah.
01:02:54There was no tag.
01:02:54Tactical move.
01:02:57He's saying we tagged.
01:02:58We couldn't see it.
01:02:59Stephon can't do anything about it because he had his back turned.
01:03:03And really, it's scout's honor at this point.
01:03:05Yeah.
01:03:06Expect more out of two veterans, if I'm being honest.
01:03:08But it was a set-up, Riccoboni.
01:03:11You know the infantry going to take a stroke because they need to.
01:03:14Especially against the Martin brothers.
01:03:16Whoa!
01:03:17And Dante launches Dean.
01:03:20Tag made.
01:03:21And in comes Darius.
01:03:25And new one home.
01:03:26Bravo.
01:03:27To the souls of the feet of Darius, who's fired up right now.
01:03:31Darius fired up not only to get in the ring, but to take up for his brother.
01:03:35High right in the face and the jaw.
01:03:37And Carly Bravo back to the stomach.
01:03:39Back to the head.
01:03:40Back to the chest.
01:03:42Carly Bravo's out on his feet.
01:03:45And it's back to life.
01:03:46Back to reality.
01:03:48For Darius at top flight.
01:03:51Whoa!
01:03:51Cutter!
01:03:52Come on, come on, come on.
01:03:53Darius drug him in with that.
01:03:56Darius with a trap there.
01:03:58Whoa!
01:03:58Wait a minute.
01:03:59Two pitchers.
01:04:00And that was, those fingers were locked.
01:04:02That was perfect execution for Darius.
01:04:04Absolutely perfect is the right word, Riccoboni.
01:04:07Yeah.
01:04:09As Darius leading.
01:04:14Bravo.
01:04:14Back to his feet.
01:04:15Up and over.
01:04:16Line tag.
01:04:17Yes, indeed.
01:04:18Dante in.
01:04:19The legal man.
01:04:21Carly has no idea.
01:04:24Equestrating timing here with Darius and Dante.
01:04:27Double hook for that double drop.
01:04:30We've seen top flight go to that.
01:04:32Wind bounce with that.
01:04:32Up and over.
01:04:33Oh, to the outside.
01:04:34Darius.
01:04:35Dante's the legal man.
01:04:37And look at Carly Bravo trying to make the tag.
01:04:39Nice block off.
01:04:40Right there.
01:04:41Cut him off.
01:04:42Oh, it's a cradle of a one.
01:04:44Two.
01:04:44Smart thinking back.
01:04:46Carly Bravo.
01:04:48Charging in.
01:04:49Big boot.
01:04:50And it's Bravo.
01:04:51Grabs a hold of the wrist.
01:04:52So fast.
01:04:53So fluid.
01:04:54Neck breaker combination.
01:04:57Dating the legal man.
01:04:58Two.
01:04:59Oh, Darius out of nowhere to break things up.
01:05:01Second time they tried that.
01:05:03First time didn't work.
01:05:04It worked that time.
01:05:06Little shades of the Crystal Brothers there.
01:05:08Absolutely.
01:05:09That was a page out of their playbook.
01:05:12And if you're...
01:05:14If you're going to borrow, borrow from the 13th Tag Champions.
01:05:16Oh, goodness.
01:05:20Darius is going to have to borrow something else, Rick and Bonnie.
01:05:22Oh, ho, ho, ho.
01:05:24I don't know if they let you borrow those.
01:05:26I don't know.
01:05:26I will.
01:05:27As Captain Sean Dean.
01:05:29Oh, come on.
01:05:30The six-man tag team title.
01:05:32The physical belts in the possession of the infantry.
01:05:35Stefan.
01:05:36Stefan, turn around.
01:05:39Oh, Stefan.
01:05:40Stefan sees it.
01:05:41There you go.
01:05:41Come on.
01:05:43Give me this.
01:05:43Yeah.
01:05:44Don't pick your door.
01:05:44You can't have it for that.
01:05:46Right.
01:05:46Good.
01:05:47Good for you, Stefan.
01:05:48I'm embarrassed.
01:05:49I got another one.
01:05:51Huh.
01:05:51What?
01:05:51They got two more.
01:05:53Oh, wait a minute.
01:05:54And Dante.
01:05:55Sunset flip.
01:05:56One.
01:05:57Two.
01:05:58Dante Martin.
01:06:00Dante Martin.
01:06:02The winner of this match.
01:06:03And...
01:06:04Top flight.
01:06:07Dante Martin secures the win for top flight.
01:06:10It's a shot across the barrel.
01:06:11Sky flight with a win over STP.
01:06:14By the infantry.
01:06:15They are not taking this defeat with grace.
01:06:19And here comes Shea Taylor.
01:06:20Here comes the ball's wrinkle body.
01:06:23This war is fouled from over.
01:06:25Far from over.
01:06:26And Taylor coming in.
01:06:31And it is...
01:06:32Oh!
01:06:33Oh!
01:06:34Dante just knocked out!
01:06:36Oh, my God.
01:06:37That's limber right there, Rick and body.
01:06:40Oh, it certainly is.
01:06:41Christopher Davis in a row.
01:06:43Whoa!
01:06:44Oh, no.
01:06:46He just put to sleep CD.
01:06:49Oh, he didn't.
01:06:50Just had flashbacks from six years ago.
01:06:52Rick and body.
01:06:53Oh, wait a minute.
01:06:58It's Scorpio Sky.
01:07:00Scorpio Sky in.
01:07:03And Taylor.
01:07:05And Sky.
01:07:06Traded punches.
01:07:07Look at...
01:07:08Ducks to the right.
01:07:09Scorpio Sky at a roundhouse right.
01:07:12Sends Taylor to the outside.
01:07:14The fight I never knew I wanted to see.
01:07:16But this sixth man has just met that match with Gabani.
01:07:22Uh-oh.
01:07:22Oh, and Scorpio Sky.
01:07:25He's held that before.
01:07:26Who's been to the top of the six-man mountain.
01:07:30Who's held those titles as part of SCU.
01:07:34He was the young...
01:07:36He was the young athlete.
01:07:39Can he be the veteran that leads top flight to six-man goals?
01:07:45That will be full circle with Gabani.
01:07:49And fans, it's official for Tony Khan in final battle.
01:07:52It will be STP defending the ROA's world six-man tag team titles against Sky Flight.
01:07:57It also made official.
01:07:58The ROA's women's world titles on the line.
01:08:00Because Athena defends against Persephone.
01:08:02Special night next week, Black Friday, 7 p.m.
01:08:05For Bobby, Kapri, Sami, and Rickabadi.
01:08:07Happy wrestling, everybody!
