January 2011:
ROH on TNT Episode 3
We open our episode with Steve Corino, Jon Moxley and Sami Callihan of SCUM in the ring.
Corino cuts a promo on Colt Cabana who he says he's nothing but an after thought of what Kevin Steen and SCUM did to El Generico, who he rubs the salt on the wound to everyone that Generico will not be seen in an ROH ring ever again because of them. Corino gloats about how much he looks forward to beating Cabana at Revolution of Honor next weekend.
Colt Cabana comes out at the entrance ramp to loud cheers, he and Corino promo off of one another for a bit before Corino attempts to sick Moxley and Callihan onto Cabana, as they exit the ring, Chris Jericho's theme hits and Jericho comes out, cutting a promo on SCUM. Jericho mocks SCUM for seeming to try and take credit for taking out Generico when in all actuality, Generico beat Steen. The only reason Generico is out is actually because of Roderick Strong and that's why the ROH fans are turning on that guy at a rapid pace. He tells them to back off whatever they're attempting to cause with Cabana right now. Jericho says that he has a brilliant idea, he'd love to get a warm up in for his match against SCUM's Kevin Steen at the PPV next weekend, so he calls it, the main event for next week is Chris Jericho and Colt Cabana vs. Steve Corino's lap dogs aka Jon Moxley and Sami Callihan

We get an in ring promo from Eddie Kingston who says that he's finally here in an ROH ring on live TV, with a live microphone, in front of a national audience. The crowd boos as Kingston tears into ROH as a whole and it's foundation of a company. He says that he's had to ask time and time again for opportunity to prove that he's the guy and yet, guys like Shinsuke Nakamura can just come in and instantly get a main event TV spot. It makes him sick to his stomach. He says that he had one hell of a 2010, but he plans to have an even better 2011, he challenges Shinsuke Nakamura to a match at Revolution of Honor on PPV. Nakamura comes out and accepts Kingston's challenge as the two lock eyes heavily in the ring with tension but still a weirdly fun amount of glee from Nakamura.

MAIN EVENT:
Singles Match:
Kevin Steen DEF. Claudio Castagnoli (w/ Chris Hero)
---
After the match, Kevin Steen cuts a heated and passionate promo and buries the 25% of the audience who is cheering for him right now. He claims the ROH fans don't have a clue what they want. He says that it's hypocritical to cheer for both guys like him but also cheer for guys like Bryan Danielson, Chris Jericho, Colt Cabana - he says that those are guys that are here, in his company, because they couldn't cut it "elsewhere" while guys like him, have been carrying this company on his back for years, he says that he's given new life to someone who was turned away from "elsewhere" like Steve Corino, he's given a guy who was shown the door by this company the biggest chance of his life to be a big player in the likes of Jimmy Jacobs, he was able to get the next generation of guys like Jon Moxley and Sami Callihan's foots in the door when nobody else would and guys like Chris Jericho coming here to have "sparring" matches while making more than all of SCUM is disgusting and he's going to put a stop to that. He says if you were upset that Generico won't be seen in an ROH ring again, prepare to be even more upset because when Steen gets his hands on Jericho at the PPV next weekend, Jericho won't be leaving that ring.
