After suffering a loss to Lucky Kid, Starr addressed the crowd and blamed them for allowing the "evil corporation" to take over independent wrestling, following which Starr called WWE's newest signing and NXT UK star Walter, a "coward" for signing with the company and went on a rant against him for joining an organization without health care.

In his final few words, Starr also criticized both wXw and WWN for getting into a working relationship with WWE and working with the company before eventually quitting the promotion as well.

As for David Starr, he will be challenging for the ROH World Championship on April 21st.
