Final Battle was a tough night for Bully Ray

Punishment Martinez vs Silas Young vs Shane Taylor vs Kenny King (Four-Corner Elimination Match For The ROH Television Championship)

Once they got started, Kenny King was doing well against Martinez until Taylor tagged himself in. Shane Taylor told Punishment Martinez to bring it on and clotheslined him over the top rope. Silas Young got the tag and met a stiff tackle from Taylor. Young hit Taylor with a dive over the top rope and Martinez ate a spinning heel kick from King followed by a spinning dive onto the other competitors.

This match was fighting all around with all four men for a while like this with everyone trading big moves.

Shane Taylor hit a running death valley driver on Punishment Martinez followed by a splash for a two count. Then Taylor grabbed Martinez and climbed up top but Kenny King plucked him off the top rope and hit the Royal Flush and Martinez hit a twisting senton to eliminate Shane Taylor.

King hit a Royal Flush on Martinez as Silas grabbed a beer bottle and smashed it over Kenny King's head while the referee was distracted by the Beer City Bruiser. Silas Young covered Kenny King for the three count to eliminate the ROH Television Champion from the match.

Punishment Martinez almost had the win but Beer City Bruiser dragged Silas out of the ring. Silas tackled Martinez against the barricade on the outside and kicked him against the metal surface.

Punishment Martinez took a lot of damage and looked hurt as Silas Young kept hitting one still strike after another. Young hit Misery and won the match.

Winner and NEW ROH Television Champion: Silas Young def Punishment Martinez via pinfall


Bully Ray and Tommy Dreamer vs The Briscoes (New York City Steet Fight)

Dem Boys, The Briscoes really upset Bully Ray when they nearly ended his career and Tommy Dreamer couldn't wait to help his old friend get some revenge. This match got started off in a big way and the action was fierce as soon as Dreamer and Bully Ray entered through the crowd.

There was a moment when all four people had chairs but the Briscoes dropped theirs to take shots to the back. Then they rolled out to get kendo sticks but before the Briscoes could do anything, Bully and Tommy Dreamer rolled out of the ring and grabbed lightsabers. The crowd chanted "holy sh*t" and "use the force."

Bully Ray made everyone yell "get the tables" and as they went out of to get the table, Mark Briscoe hit a dropkick onto the table which smashed against Bully Ray and busted him open. Then he placed a ladder over Dreamer and hit a senton off the apron.

Then Mark Briscoe grabbed a cheese grater and stalked Bully Ray in the ring; he was soon cutting the flesh off of Bully Ray's forehead.

Jay Briscoe picked up a table but Bully Ray kicked the table and made him fall backwards. Tommy Dreamer got up and they babyfaces hit an inverted 3D on an unfolded table. Then Dreamer hit a Spicolli Driver off the apron through a table on Mark Briscoe.

Bully Ray started firing away on Mark Briscoe's head with a kendo stick and set him up on a table. Bully climbed to the top rope and hit a splash through the table shattering it, but he only got a two count as the crowd chanted, "you still got it"

Then Bully Ray set up another table in the middle of the ring and started covering it with a flammable liquid. But the Briscoes would gain the advantage and hit a 3B followed by a top rope elbow through the table for the win.

Winners: The Briscoes def Bully Ray via pinfall


The Hungbucks vs Flip Gordon, Dragon Lee and Titan

The Young Bucks and Hangman Page were insanely over and there were tons of "The Elite" chants. Everything The Bullet Club did in the ring got a great reaction.

When Flip Gordon finally got the tag, Matt Jackson went to shake his hand, but instead, Gordon changed it to a "too sweet." What followed was a bunch of dropkicks in a row and fast-paced action concluding with all six guys hitting dropkicks in the middle.

Gordon, Lee, and Titan hit a trio of flipping dives on The Hungbucks to the outside.

Page got the tag and ended up getting a fireman's carry into a dropkick while he completed a moonsault on Titan. The action moved to the outside where Matt Jackson hit a running flip on their opponents from the entrance ramp.

Flip Gordon started countering every one of The Young Bucks' Superkicks with Matrix-style dodges and then he hit a double 6-1-9 on them. Gordon hit a slingblade on Page and followed it up with a one-footed springboard flip onto the Jackson Brothers on the outside.

Gordon hit a Star Spangled Stunner but then he took a Superkick. Then it became a Superkick Party for a minute. Titan got caught in the Indytaker, but Flip interrupted it. Matt Jackson hit a springboard DDT on Dragon Lee onto the apron and that was very painful looking.

Page was going for a Right Of Passage, but Gordon reversed out of it to make tags. The Young Bucks came in and Nick accidentally ate a superkick. They soon came back to life and Matt caught Titan as Hangman Page hit a shooting star Indytaker from the apron onto the floor.

Gordon soon found himself fighting all three members of the Bullet Club by himself in the ring and laid in as many chops as he could muster. But they soon hit a Triple Superkick. The Hangmanpage picked up all Gordon and Dragon Lee to hit a double Indytaker for the win.
