We are back with comments from Jay Lethal and Truth Martini after seeing highlights from the match between War Machine and The Briscoes that aired on last week’s episode of Ring of Honor television.

Truth says that Kyle O’Reilly has said that he made Jay Lethal tap out but that was a three on one situation and one of his partners is the man whose name they do not say. You are going in there with a legend tonight. Everyone will witness what a legend has to go through to be that legend. Heroes come and go, but legends live forever.

Jay says that Kyle is a great tag team wrestler. That means you have done good when someone else is watching your back. Tonight is a different story. You will find out why he is the greatest first generation wrestler and why he is the champion. You will find out that when there is no one watching your back, you are not as good as you thought.

Kyle says he has a chance to achieve a goal that has been stewing since he came into Ring of Honor. He will ask for another dose of Lethal Injection, but he will give Jay a dose of his own medicine.
