In Ring Segment
Kevin Kelly got in the ring after a bit of a delay following the previous match and was quickly followed by Jim Cornette, Steve Corino and Jimmy Jacobs and then shortly thereafter by Kevin Steen. Steen came out with his attorney Christian Mascagni, who is a regular for Ohio Valley Wrestling and an attorney in real life. Jim Cornette got on the mic and said that while Kevin Steen is a great wrestler, he is also a crazy son of a b**** and an a******. Steen told Cornette that his comments don’t insult him and said that Cornette is a hypocritical piece of garbage and said that he helped to carry this company for a year, however Cornette hates him, all because he can’t control him.
Steve Corino then got on the mic and said that he helped to create the mess that the company finds itself in, however Steen took things too far. Steen then got on the mic again and made the comment of the night, noting that Steve Corino and Jimmy Jacobs must have had their balls cut off, as they remind him too much of what Jim Cornette is like. Corino said that he had an idea and that he wants to face Kevin Steen at ROH Final Battle on December 23rd and said if Kevin Steen wins, he is reinstated to Ring of Honor Wrestling, however Jimmy Jacobs will be the special guest referee, under orders of Jim Cornette. Steen said that he loved the idea and demanded that Cornette has a ringside seat at Final Battle, so that he can watch the man he loves to hate up close and personal, return to Ring of Honor.

Richards then got p***** off at Eddie and attacked Eddie, which brought out Kyle O’Reilly and Tony Kozina, who attempted to calm things down to no avail. Jim Cornette then came out to break things up to no avail also and called for help from the back, to which Nigel McGuinness got up from his commentary position to calm the situation down. The two finally were pulled apart to end the show, with both men really hyping the weeks leading in to ROH Final Battle.
