ROH On HonorClub Results 3/12/26

ROH On HonorClub starts … NOW!

Deonna Purrazzo appeared on screen with her ROH Women’s Pure Title to lament Athena’s insecurity. She said that Jersey Girls “don’t run scared” so Athena can throw everything she has at her. Next week, Purrazzo will face Billie Starkz in a Pure Rules match, but tonight, Athena should focus on her Proving Ground match with Maya World and try and win it the “Pure-razzo” way.

ROH Women’s World Title Proving Ground Match: Athena [c] vs. Maya World

And apparently the Pure-razzo way is to get right into the match, so that’s what we did! This would be a Proving Ground match in which World can earn a shot at Athena’s ROH Women’s title by pinning or submitting the champion, or lasting to the 10 minute time limit.

Right off the bell, Athena came out swinging, punching World in the face and sending her to the ropes. World hit a spin kick and a headscissor takedown to come back and sent Athena to the ring apron (the earliest part of the ring!).

World pump-kicked Athena on the outside and tossed her back into the ring. Athena sent her into the corner for a meteora and a lax cover, which World kicked out of. She clubbed World over the bottom rope and stood on her to drive the point home.

Athena went for a scoop slam, but World countered it into a DDT. World got Athena to her feet and they traded forearms. World went to come off the ropes, but Athena caught her with a clothesline and sent her to the outside. Athena dove onto World and then threw her at the stairs. World saw it coming and countered, but Athena countered the counter and threw her off the stairs and back into the ring.

Athena put World into a cravot lock, smiling the whole time. World got to her feet, but Athena kicked her in the spine and slapped on a headlock, wearing World down. Athena went for a senton, but World got out of the way and started knocking the champion around the ring. She went for a rollup, but Athena shoved out of it.

World started throwing knees, but Athena tripped her and sent her to the mat for a two count. She sent World to the corner, but World got her foot up. She landed a body scissor on Athena, who then picked her up for a sit out powerbomb. The announcer let us know that 2 minutes remained in the match.

Athena went up top, looking to put World away, but World got to her feet and scared her off the turnbuckle. They fought in the corner with Athena looking for a lungblower, but World counterd it into a falcon arrow for a two count. One minute left!

The two slugged it out in the middle of the ring, countering and recountering everything. World went for a big swidewalk slam, covered Athena and the ref counted 1, 2— and no! The time expired, making the match a draw, but that still gets World her title shot.

Match Result: Athena vs. Maya World went to a Time Limit Draw, earning World a future ROH Women’s World Title shot

After the match, Athena threw a fit that would make Christian proud as World celebrated with Deonna Purrazzo and Hyan.

ROH Women’s World Television Title Match: Red Velvet (c) vs Hyan

From the Proving Ground right into a Women’s World Television Title match! Hyan had left ringside after her celebration with Maya World and then re-entered, so that’s neat.

They locked up off the bell, with Velvet getting a wristlock throw on Hyan to send her to the corner. They reset and this time Hyan went for a wristlock, but Velvet flipped out of it. Hyan tried to bear hug Velvet, but couldn’t get it set.

Hyan sent velvet off the ropes and blocked a lariat, sending Velvet to the mat with a pump kick. Velvet switched it up with a leg lariat, but only got a one count. Velvet guillotine kicked Hyan over the ropes then shoved her to the center of the ring for a cover attempt that went two.

Hyan snuck in a hard forearm which gave her a chance to get Velvet up in a staaaaaalllling suplex. Velvet countered before she sould complete it though. The two rolled through a couple of pinning combinations, until Hyan stood up with Velvet on her back and pushed her into the corner.

Hyan hit a shotgun dropkick and started tuning up the band. She landed a knee to the face and then dropped Velvet with a falcon arrow. Hyan went for a high knee, but Velvet ducked and landed a forearm on her chin. Hyan avoided Mama’s Kitchen and took a second shot with her knee, connecting for a two count.

Velvet took out Hyan by the knee and landed a spinning kick to the side of her head. She quickly pinned the dazed Hyan and won the match.

Match Result: Red Velvet defeated Hyan

ROH World Six Man Tag Team Title Proving Ground Match: Shane Taylor Promotions (Carlie Bravo, Shane Taylor & Shawn Dean) (w/Anthony Ogogo and ) [c] vs Aaron Solo, Nick Comoroto & QT Marshall

And straight out of the TV Title picture, we head back to the Proving Ground! Nick Comoroto has been out for a really long time, so it’s great to see him back and hairier than ever. Shane Taylor Promotions came to the ring in full force.

RIght off the top, STP dispatched MArshall and Solo, focusing on Comoroto. Comoroto used MArshall and Solo as weapons, throwing them at Bravo in the corner. Solo and Bravo remained legal off the schmozz until Dean tagged in and they tried to double team Solo. Taylor turned it into a triple team, dropping a leg on Solo on the apron.

Back in the ring, Dean and Solo fought with Dean landing some hard strikes. He tagged in Bravo who hit a spingboard splash on Solo for a two count. He drove his knee into the back of Solo’s head, while Taylor punched him through the ropes.

Bravo began working Solo’s foot, repeatedly stomping it. Bravo sent him to the STP corner, isolating him so that Taylor could tag in and punch the daylights of him. Taylor threw open hands and chops on Solo until Dean tagged in and hit the (sigh) BBC in the corner.

Dean put Solo in a sleeper but Solo fought back until Dean sent him to the corner with a slingshot spear. Dean then knocked Comoroto off the apron, but missed Marshall. Dean took Solo back to the STP corner for a beat down. Bravo hooked the leg, but Marshall broke up the pin.

Solo finally hit a neckbreaker on Dean and made a stretching tag to Marshall who unloaded right hands on all three members of STP. Marshall hit a spinning kick on Dean, knocking him to the mat. He called for the Diamond Cutter, but Bravo cut him off. Solo came in and gave Marshall some backup, but Bravo and Dean started spamming superkicks and then hit a double cookie cutter on Marshall.

Taylor tagged in and so did Comoroto, pitting the two big men against each other. They exploded out of the corners, but all six men started brawling. When the dust settled, Comoroto and Taylor were the only ones standing, making everyone ask, why did we do that?

They traded blows until Taylor got Comoroto up in a body slam. Comoroto got back up and landed one of his own, but it wasn’t enough to get the pin. On the outside, Agogo took out Marshall and in the ring, the infantry hit a double slam on Solo. Comoroto then took down both members of the Infantry, but that left him open for a Taylor left hand.

The infantry hit boot camp on Comoroto and Taylor made the pin to end the Proving Ground match.

Match Result: Shane Taylor Promotions defeated Aaron Solo, Nick Comoroto & QT Marshall

The Ring of Honor Tag Team Champions, Sammy Guevara and The Beast Mortos, came down to the ring next. Guevara had issued an open challenge last week for any team to challege for the titles, so all that remained was the answer to the question of who would it be?

Guevara grabbed a mic and heel’ed it up with the crowd while I took a moment to note that Mortos, a real life lawyer, had started coming to the ring in a tattered suit and tie along with a pair of black glasses over his mask. Perfection. No notes.

Guevara said that Tony Khan was making them defend the titles, so could an opponent come out please so they could get it over with and he could go home? That led to:

Open Challenge: ROH Tag Team Champions LFI (Sammy Guevara & The Beast Mortos) vs The Colons (Eddie and Orlando)

That’s right, the Colons answered the challenge! The former Primo and Epico looked great, even in the absence of Carlito.

Eddie stood in the ring, while Mortos and Guevara tagged in and out, playing to the crowd. Eventually, Eddie had enough and took down Mortos. Orlando tagged in and tried a sunset flip, but Mortos stalled him. That let Orlando tag in Eddie, but Mortos was on fire, taking off his suit and tie.

Guevara tagged in (why didn’t you do that before he got undressed, Sammy?) but quickly got out of the ring, saying he wasn’t ready. Guevara and Mortos argued for a second on the outside, allowing the Colons to dive on them and throw Guevara back into the ring.

Orlando had Guevara in the ring, but he went off the ropes and that let Mortos grab his ankle. Sammy tagged out and Mortos hit a slingblade bulldog on Orlando for a two count. Guevara tagged back in and got Orlando up in a staaaaaaalllling suplex. Mortos tagged back in and they double whipped him into the corner for a series of high knees.

Guevara hit a powerslam, and Mortos hit a senton, but they could only get a two count. They double teamed Orlando some more until Orlando countered with a senton. Guevara accidentally hit Mortos with a shot and while apologizing, Orlando hit him with a cutter.

Guevara fought back and got Orlando up for GTH, but Orlando countered with a flatliner. That got him the chance to tag in Eddie, who came out of the corner to face Mortos. Eddie hit a clothesline and dropkick, staggering Mortos.

Eddie caught Mortos in a lungblower for a two count, broken up by Guevara. Eddie went up top, but Guevara pulled him off the turnbuckle. Orlando took out Guevara on the outside, while Mortos hit a pop up samoan drop on Eddie to get the pin and the victory.

Match Result: LFI defeated The Colons

Mixed Six-Person Tag Match: The Premier Athletes (Ariya Daivari, Tony Nese and Stori Denali) w/ Mark Sterling vs Parker Lee, Angelica Risk and Mark Davidson

Davidson started off against Daivari, who headlocked him and then hit a shoulder tackle off the ropes. Denali tagged in, which triggered Risk’s entrance. Davidson tried to get out of the ring, but Denali just stood on him until Risk got close enough for her to kick.

Denali tagged in Nese, who seemed way to excited at the prospect of fighting Risk, but Lee came in to take her place. Nese dispatched him quickly and Davidson tagged in to eat a neckbreaker. That brought Denali and Risk back together and Denali choke slammed her to end the match.

Match Result: The Premier Athletes defeated Parker Lee, Angelica Risk and Mark Davidson

-Backstage, Jay Lethal, Lee Johnson and Black Christian cut a promo about how they are great. Christian held up the mask of Bandido and Christian said that the next trophy they take will be his championship.

Scorpio Sky (w/Christopher Daniels) vs Bryan Keith

So, when Big Bill isn’t around, Bryan Keith’s entrance has way more aggressive gesturing. Just a note.

They locked up off the top with Sky sending Keith to the corner. They reset and went for an old-school test of strength, but Sky rolled it through into a wristlock. Keith reversed it and I started wondering what was happening on The Pitt.

Keith, not satisfied with how slowly the match was going, exited the ring to think about things for a bit. Keith got back into the ring and Sky hit a shoulder tackle. He arm dragged Keith into an armbar, but Keith poked him in the eye. Sky went right back to offense though, working Keith’s knee.

Keith came back with a heavy chop, knocking Sky down. He sent Sky into the corner, but Sky came back with a headscissor takedown. He whipped Keith into the corner and Keith came out with an open hand, knocking Sky to the outside.

What seemed like 74 minutes later, Keith exited the ring and chopped Sky on the barricade. Sky crawled back up onto the apron and Keith threw some more chops at him. Karate chops, I mean. Sky rolled back into the ring and Keith paint brushed him with his feet.

Sky started throwing big hands, but Keith put a knee in his gut for a two count. Keith hit a big booton Sky in the corner. Sky got to his feet and threw a back elbow when Keith wasn’t expecting it. Keith then sent him back out of the ring. Keith went after him and threw some punches. Sky came back with some chops, tossing Keith back in the ring.

Sky got back in just in time to eat a big knee, but managed to kick out at two. Keith then kneeled next to Sky for a few minutes while Sky lay on the mat. Then he started slapping him. That seemed to hulk Sky back up and he started throwing forearms and a double stomp.

Sky hit a high knee and a clothesline before hitting a Sky High on Keith off the ropes for a two count. Sky hit exactly ten punches in the corner and Keith exploded out of it with a headbutt spear. Keith went for a big boot, but Sky countered it into a TKO and that was it. Sky wins.

Match Result: Scorpio Sky defeated Bryan Keith

After the match, Big Bill and Grizzled Young Veterans ran down to the ring to take out Christopher Daniels at ringside. They dragged Sky into the ring and Bill chokeslammed him. A few weeks ago, GYV paid Big Bill and Keith to team with them and now I think they are paying them to be friends with them as well. What’s important is that Isla Dawn was also there.

It was then announced that next week, Nick Wayne would defend the ROH World Television Title against Komander.

ROH Pure Title Match: Lee Moriarty (c) vs Josh Woods

Get your VCRs going friends as these two had one hell of a Pure match last fall and this one had no reason not to top it.

The bell rang and the clock started as Woods and Moriarty had a feeling out process. Woods got Moriarty up on his shoulders and brought him to the mat in an amateur type throw. He put a headscissor on until Moriarty rolled it through.

Moriarty got an armbar on out of a gator roll, but Woods broke the hold for a good ol’ fashioned headlock. Moriarty countered out of it with a snapmare into a chinlock. Woods stood up and took a wristlock. Moriarty stepped through, reversing it until Woods grabbed him in a series of German suplexeseses.

Moriarty grabbed the ropes to stop the Germans, costing him a rope break at 56:43. Woods changed tactics and slapped on an ankle lock, grapevining the leg until he just gave up and started smashing the knee off the mat. He locked in a body scissor, forcing Moriarty touse his second rope break at 33:32, the first time anyone could remember Moriarty needing two rope breaks.

Moriarty hit a single arm DDT, damaging Woods’ shoulder. That let Moriarty to work the fingers, and bend Woods’ arm back. Woods grabbed the rope at 54:27 to break the hold.

Moriarty went right back to the arm, putting pressure on Wood’s shoulder. Moriarty started getting mean, stomping the fingers and hyperextending the elbow with a wrist pump. Moriarty out Woods in a wrap around body lock, and Woods used the ropes at 53:32, leaving each man with only one break.

Woods rolled Moriarty into a half nelson facelock. Moriarty got out of it and the two exchanged hard strikes in the middle of the ring. The two went for simultaneous pump kicks and knocked each other down.

When breath was caught, Moriarty went for a bridging pin, but Woods kicked out. Moriarty hit a spingboard crossbody, but again a kickout from Woods. Moriarty went back to the ankle lock, transitioning into the Border City Stretch. Woods tried crawling to the ring and managed to get there at 50:34 for his last rope break.

Moriarty hit a lariat in the corner, but Woods came back with a suplex then gut wrench followed by a shin to Moriarty’s skull for a two count. Woods put Moriarty in a short are scissor lock and Moriarty was forced to use his final rope break at 49:17.

Woods fired up and threw himself at Moriarty in the corner with high knees and hips. Moriarty ducked ont and Woods went into the post via injured shoulder. Moriarty pulled him to the mat and made the pin to retain the title.

Match Result: Lee Moriarty defeated Josh Woods
