Ring of Honor YouTube Special Episode #10 7/21/2026 Beantown Beatdown

The last Youtube special is here: https://prowresblog.blogspot.com/2026/06/ring-of-honor-youtube-special-episode-9.html

Caprice Coleman & Ian Riccaboni are on commentary.

Matt Sydal and Skyflight do a promo. Matt says the sky is no limit with them by their side. Shane Taylor comes in and says it seems that they are very limited. Shane asks how many people Top Flight will let people lean on them to get success. He says he keeps hearing about their potential but potential has a limit. He says they will be stuck here with the company they keep or join them and find their potential. Darius tells Dante that Shane has some good points and asks what he thinks. Dante says they will stick with people who have been to the places they want to go to. Shane tells them to stay stuck here and says they will pay for it.

Thoughts: I didn't like this segment. Heels are supposed to lie. Shane said nothing here that was a lie. Skyflight has done nothing for Top Flight and they are dumb to stay.

Uno takes running corner attacks then a flying knee + STO combo. Yuta pins Uno.

Thoughts: The Death Riders won as expected. It didn't get a ton of time to be anything special. What we got was acceptable but not much more. The Dark Order had some new double teams here.

Komander vs. Alan Angels

AA boots his hand away on the handshake and john woo's him. AA punches and chops him in the corner. AA running chops him then half-nelson suplexes him. Kom armdrags him from his shoulder and la magistral's him off a flying headscissors attempt. Kom walks up the ropes and springboard dropkicks AA.

Kom goes to springboard in and AA dropkicks him. AA sits up top and Kom top rope hurricanrana's him. Kom rope walk SSP's him and pins him.

Thoughts: It wasn't quite the fast-paced juniors match you would expect here. It was a little slower and AA was a bit of a heel. I thought this was just average and I would have rather seen them just fly around.

Zach euros him and Nick throws him in the corner. Zach 2nd rope diving headscissors Nick out then tornillo's him outside. Zack 2nd rope tornillo's him inside for 2. Nick death valley drivers Zach for 2.

Bustah And The Brain (Alec Price & Jordan Oliver) & The Outrunners (Truth Magnum & Turbo Floyd) vs. The Premier Athletes (Ariya Daivari & Tony Nese) & The Swirl (Blake Christian & Lee Johnson)

The Runners stop AP and JO from doing dives and they say they want to do the dives. They then go to the apron and hit double axe handles. Ari takes a double styles clash and is pinned. 

Thoughts: We see variations of this every week and the heels almost always lose. The heels lost again here. It was an okay bout with them having some fun and keeping things interesting. I know wearing the title belt during the match is Turbo's thing, but that should not be legal whatsoever. Blake seemed like he might have hurt his knee off a top rope 450 but was able to get through the match.

The heels attack the faces after. Jay Lethal joins in. Dalton Castle comes out to help the faces and hits a bangarang on Jay.

Thoughts: Tiara got a lot in here and this kind of seemed like a tryout for her. She has appeared on AEW TV a few times in the last few weeks. It was average but Tiara did her part and didn't botch.

The Kingdom do a promo. Taven says they are undefeated since they returned to ROH. Taven says their intelligence is on a god level and they are dealing with artificial intelligence. Mike says they have always been missing that thing that puts them over the top and says it's artificial intelligence. Mike says he's learning how to die and wrestle better. He says AI taught him to focus on what matters and that's the ROH Tag Titles. Taven says it's not the same old Matt and Mike and it's a new era of The Kingdon. Taven says it's a computerized era of The Kingdom.

Thoughts: Well, that was something different. We just need Alexandra York and The York Foundation is back, baby.

Thoughts: It never got as it good as it could have. Dez just didn't get to fly around too much, it was a little slower and the crowd wasn't that into it. It was just average. 

Overall thoughts: The opener was acceptable. Komander/Angels wasn't the fast juniors match I had hoped for and was average. Zach Wentz squashed Comoroto. The 8-man was probably the best bout of the night and was alright. Maya/Tiara was average and The Opps won a squash. The main was also average and had a crowd that wasn't too into it. I'd give this a 5 out of 10 as there was a lot of average wrestling here and there was nothing that good. This show was average overall.
