Minutes to Bell Time

Beer City Bruisers, Silas Young, and Josh Woods vs. Dan Maff, Jeff Cobb, Jay Lethal, and Jonathan Gresham

ROH Honor Reigns Supreme January 12:

Gresham and Young start the match with nobody getting a clear advantage through the first two and half minutes. Prior to Young tagging Woods into the match, Young and Gresham went through a fun series of back and forth monkey flips. Gresham tagged out to Lethal, and Woods managed to wrestle Lethal down to the mat.

When the Beer City Bruiser got tagged into the match, he announced that the “wrestling portion of the evening was over.” To a chorus of “Beer” chants, Bruiser punched Lethal in the mouth several times before biting him on the head. Of course Bruiser has no teeth, so he claims that he can’t really bite. With Jeff Cobb tagged in, Bruiser got taken down to the mat and quickly tagged out to Milionas. After Milonas landed a big butt on Cobb, Maff came into the ring for a brawling contest that ended with Maff pouncing Milonas down to the mat. With Woods isolated, Lethal and Gresham refused to tag in Cobb or Maff until Woods managed to make a tag to Young. Bruiser got a near fall on Cobb after a Beer Splash, but the finish came when Jeff Cobb hit the Tour of the Islands on Bruiser.
