Quinn McKay recaps the Ring of Honor Pure Championship Tournament. After his victory last week, Jay Lethal says the finals of this tournament are a given. He’s going to face his best friend, Jonathan Gresham. Following Jonathan Gresham’s win, The Octopus says this tournament is supposed to be about pure wrestling. He wonders why he had to face Matt Sydal instead of a pure wrestler. He says Ring of Honor needs to return to its roots and give its wrestlers the freedom of pure wrestling. He calls himself the foundation of this company and vows to win the tournament.
A video package recaps Matt Taven’s return.. He attacked Vincent and drove him through a table.
Another video recaps Fred Yehi’s and Tracy Williams’ victories in the first round.
