Ring of Honor taped their second PPV in Chicago Ridge, Illinois last night.

*Naomichi Marufuji defeated BJ Whitmer in 13:17 with Sliced bread #2.

*Brent Albright defeated Pelle Primeau in 1:47 with a gorilla press into an armbar submission.  Great squash.

*ROH champion Takeshi Morishima defeated Jimmy Rave in 3:57 with a backdrop driver in very good short but competitive match.

*Dave Prazak officially opened the ROH PPV.

Roderick Strong & Ricky Romero defeated Delirious & Erick Stevens.  Austin Aries hits the ring from the crowd and makes the save.  He grabs the mic and says he's got a contract from Ring of Honor and if he signs it, he's free from TNA.  He signs it and says he's back in a real promotion where the wrestlers are respected and so are the fans.  The crowd chants "F*** TNA."

*Claudio Castagnoli defeated Matt Sydal in 8:48 when Claudio rolled thru a Rana roll up by Sydal.  Good matwrestling but short.  Afterwards, Sydal turned hee; and joined Larry Sweeney's stable.

*ROH Tag Team champions The Briscoes defeated Kevin Steen And El Generico in 16:20 after a spike J-Driller on Generico.  Excellent match with several outstanding crazy spots.

*In a SHIMMER Women's bout, Lacey And Rain defeated Daizee Haze And MsChif in 8:41 with a double team Unprettier on MsChif.

*Nigel McGuinness defeated Chris Hero in 18:23 with the Tower of London.  Very good paced match.

*ROH champion Takeshi Morishima defeated Adam Pearce in 5:25 with a backdrop driver.  Some decent stuff.

*KENTA defeated Bryan Danielson in 25:33 after a Go 2 Sleep.  There was an incredible finishing sequence.  An  outstanding match that saw an overhead belly to belly off the apron at one point.

Notes: ROH will return to Chicago Ridge on 9/15 with another PPV taping.  The crowd was down from the previous show.
