In my opinion this looks to be the better show of the weekend, and you just know that the main event with Danielson vs Samoa Joe is going to be amazing.
I'll be posting all the results for a while until Alvin gets back, so I'll edit the thread every time there's an update.

6) BJ Whitmer & Homicide defeat Steve Corino & Adam Pearce via disqualification.
- The Briscoe brothers attacked Homicide and destroyed his arm, this causing a DQ finish.
7) KENTA defeats Davey Richards in the upset of the decade! Davey Richards kicked out of the busaiku knee kick before finally dropping to the Go 2 Sleep.
No sign of 'Europe'. "The atmosphere is intense."
8) ROH World Championship: Samoa Joe vs Bryan Danielson ends in a Time Limit Draw. "MOTYC" (Note: We've heard that enough). Joe and Dragon go 60 minutes. Afterwards, they teased giving the fans 5 more minutes, but Danielson refused. KENTA came out to confront Dragon, but the Briscoes attacked. Homicide and Samoa Joe made the save.
On September 16 in New York City, the following tag team match will happen:
Samoa Joe & Homicide vs Jay Briscoe & Mark Briscoe
Here are some more detailed results of what went down last night:
Ring of Honor returned to the Inman Sports Center in Edison, New Jersey tonight with the following results:
*Colt Cabana defeated Sal Rinauro (with Prince Nana and Jimmy Rave) via submission. The fans toilet papered the ring for The Embassy's entrance, which never gets old. The fans chanted "Brokeback Tarzan" at Rave. They did a lot of funny comedy stuff, even involving ref Mike Kehner. Cabana did the old Al Perez Whirlybird, then locked on a reverse Boston Crab for the tap out. Your typical fun opening match.
*In a match for the ROH Wrestling School Top of Class Trophy, Shane Hagadorn defeated Bobby Dempsey via submission in 10 seconds. Hagadorn knocked out Dempsey with brass knuckles at the bell as they shook hands and locked on a submission. Adam Pearce came out and congratulated Hagadorn in winning the quickest match in ROH history. Hagadorn took the mic and the fans chanted "Change the channel." Pearce said Hagadorn was well on his way. It appeared Hagadorn is going to end up a lackey for Pearce. He left the ring.
Pearce announced that Steve Corino returned last night and noted the tag match tonight. He asked BJ Whitmer to come out because he needed "to be straight with him." Whitmer came out and Pearce said last night, Homicide laid him out and Whitmer did nothing. He said that they just won the war with CZW and Whitmer needed to remember that they didn't do this for the fans, they did it for Cornette. He asked where Whitmer stood. Whitmer said that he respected Pearce, but he also respected Homicide for standing up when they needed him. Corino came out and blindsided Whitmer. They left him laying.
*In a Four Corners match, ROH Pure champion Nigel McGuinness defeated Christopher Daniels, Claudio Castagnoli and Jay Lethal. The crowd was all over Claudio and Nigel. Good match with a really hot finishing sequence.
*In an Ultimate Endurance Match for the ROH Tag Team championship, champions Roderick Strong & Austin Aries retained against Irish Airborne, The Briscoes and Matt Sydal & Jack Evans. The first fall was a Scramble, which saw the Brisoces eliminated. Crowd didn't like that. The second fal was under Tap Out Rules. Strong forced a member of Irish Airborne to tap out. The final fall was for the ROH Tag Team straps. Evans and Sydal pulled out a few dives. Aries pinned Sydal after a 450 splash. Aries noted on the mic that someone stole their Tag belts and promised that when they found out who did it, they will teach them about respect and honor. Both teams shook hands after.
*Homicide & BJ Whitmer went to a no contest against Adam Pearce & Steve Corino when the Briscoes attacked Homicide.
*KENTA defeated Davey Richards in an amazing match.
ROH champion Bryan Danielson fought Samoa Joe to a 60 minute draw. Danielson was trapped in a choke but the time limit expired before his arm could fall three times. After the match, KENTA came out and faced off with Danielson in the aisle, motioning that it was going to be his championship. The Briscoes attacked KENTA. Homicide ran out and it ended up with The Briscoes dragging Homicide to the ring and beating him. Samoa Joe stopped to watch, then hit the ring for the save. He told Homicide that they don't like each other but he respects that when ROH needed someone to stand up, Homicide was that man. He noted that without Low Ki, Homicide was short one soldier and for now on, he has one in Joe. Joe and Homicide challenged the Briscoes for the 9/16 Manhattan Center debut in New York City.
