Philadelphia, Pennsylvania | The 2300 Arena
Sold Out House + Standing Room Only
Dark Match
* The Tempura Boyz (Sho & Yohei) defeated Coast 2 Coast (Leon St. Giovanni & Shaheem Ali) by pinfall
Episode 1
* The show opens with a promo from The Young Bucks and Hangman Page. They announce it's a new era in the Bullet Club and welcome Marty Scurll to the ring. Marty talked about how stupid Adam Cole was at the War of the Worlds PPV. He continues and asks, "Who's ready to have tea time with Marty?" Adam Cole interrupted asking, "Why have a tea party with Marty when you can have story time with Adam Cole?" Cole declares himself as the franchise player in the company. Page then says he's going to run Adam Cole out of the company.
* Josh Woods defeated David Starr by submission with a rolling knee bar
* Silas Young and The Beer City Bruiser come to the ring for a promo. Silas mocked Jay Lethal for being the franchise and asks what makes him special or better than him? Silas says he beat him clean in the ring in Milwaukee and claims he has his number. Lethal interrupted, walking down to the ring, saying this isn't a company where we talk about our problems. This is a company where we fight. Silas informs Lethal, "You don't get what you want. You get what I give you" as the Bruiser sneaks up on Lethal from behind and the next match begins. Silas joins the commentary team.
* Beer City Bruiser v. Jay Lethal. Lethal wins by DQ after Silas interferes. A beat down from both men commences on Lethal as Bobby Fish runs in for the save.
* Cody comes to the ring and blames ROH management for not wanting a guy like him, a guy without an ROH contract, to be their world champion. Kazarian comes out, presumably early and by accident, as Cody continues his lengthy rant. He turns his attention to Colt Cabana on commentary asking what he said at the War of the Worlds PPV. Eventually Cody points out that Colt stated Lethal's shoulders were down flat on the mat when Cody had him in the figure four and the referee didn't do his job ignoring a pin.
* TV Main Event: Cody defeated Kazarian with Crossroads. Hangman Page comes down and they double team Kazarian. Christopher Daniels runs in for the save.

Following the match Page pushes referee Todd Sinclair down, takes his belt, and begins whipping Cole. Kazarian runs in for the save. Page & Kazarian quickly vacant the ring area. "Thank you Adam" chants break out again throughout the arena. As Cole raises his hand thanking the fans Marty Scurll attacks Cole from behind.

ROH Web Exclusive - Philadelphia Street Fight
Marty Scurll defeated Adam Cole with the chicken wing after countless interference from The Bullet Club
"Thank you Adam", "Please Don't Go", & "Speech" chants filled The 2300 Arena as Adam Cole asks, "Who's ready for story time with Adam Cole baybay?" A "We will miss you" rang out. Cole then delivered his farewell address to the ROH crowd.
"I fell in love with pro wrestling at the young age of nine years old and I was infatuated with guys like "Stone Cold" Steve Austin and The Rock and all the countless superstars that I saw. But what really made me decide that I wanted to be a professional wrestler was Ring of Honor. [applause]
I've said this countless times and it's the truth, this place- not just the locker room, not just the camera men, not just the referees, but all of you, we are one big, giant family. The love and respect that each and every one of you have shown me is the reason I can stand before you here today nine years a pro wrestler, three times a world champion traveling the globe because you guys thought I was good enough. No matter what happens going forward, I just want each and every one of you to know that I deeply love you and Ring of Honor will always be my home. And I'll end it with this, since she's here, Mom- Happy Mother's Day!"
Cole's music hits as the crowd applauded. Cole held up his index finger indicating "one more time". Cole bent down and throws 'em up as the crowd let out a thunderous, "ADAM COLE BAYBAY!!!" The crowd chants "Thank you Adam" as he departs.
