ROH on HonorClub starts … NOW!
Wheeler Yuta vs Alex Zayne
Yuta took the fight right to Zayne off the top, wrenching him to the mat by the waist. Zayne fought back with a flipping senton and a double knee off the ropes. Yuta had to bail out of the ring to collect himself and Zayne tried to follow. Yuta saw it through his bangs though and tripped him up.
Yuta delivered an elbow off the top turnbuckle and the match deteriorated into a slugfest. Yuta began mugging for the camera before delivering a suplex to Zayne. Yuta started delivering hammer elbows to Zayne and when the Ref called him off he exclaimed “I. Have. Until. Five” at him. Zayne used this as a moment to take control and try a face buster, but Yuta reversed it.
Yuta bridged Zayne in a cattle mutilation, but Zayne wouldn’t quit. Yuta dragged him to the top turnbuckle and wrenched Zayne’s shoulder. Zany shook it off though and hit a boomerang hurricanrana into a facebuster. Yuta kicked out at two though.
Yuta caught Zayne with high running knee out of the corner and that was it for Zayne. 1-2-3, Yuta wins!
Winner: Wheeler Yuta

Spanish Announce Project (Angelico & Serpentico) vs Eddie Pearl & Ricky Gibson
Angelico kicked things off against Pearl and it was kind of like putting a bowl of spaghetti next to a bowl of oranges. Angelico has the agaility and Pearl had the strength. A quick tag to Gibson allowed him to show off his skill, but Angelico was waiting for him and backed him into the corner for a tag to Serpentico.
Gibson towered over Serpentico, but it didn’t stop the luchadore from kicking him square in the face. Gibson hit a slingshot backbreaker off the ropes before tagging in Pearl to toss Serpentico around. Pearl locked in a sleeper, but Serpentico battled out of it with a jawbreaker. Gibson sent Serpentico into the corner, following him in, but Serpentico dodged and Gibson hit the ring post, crotch first.
A hot tag was made to Angelico who immediately started cleaning house. He used Pearl as a springboard to deliver a forearm to Gibson, sending him to the outside. he rolled up Pearl, but Gibson broke up the pin. Serpentico got involved and send Gibson to the outside, followed by a Suicide dive.
In the ring, Angelico locked in a calf crusher on Pearl and while Serpentico dealt with Gibson on the outside, Pearl tapped giving the victory to SAP.
Winners: Spanish Announce Project (Angelico & Serpentico)
-Next, footage of the Frat House at a bar (in the middle of the afternoon) was shown. They were being jerks, when suddenly the Dark Order showed up and challenged them to a… drinking contest? Anyway, they decided to play Flip Cup. The losers would have to pay everyone’s tab. Long story short, Dark Order won, but the Frat House said that they cheated. John Silver said they’d pick up the tab anyways to great cheers. Alex Reynolds told the barkeep to charge everything to Griff Garrison, to which the bartender responded “who the hell is Griff Garrison?”
