ROH: The Era of Honor Begins (02.2002)
ROH: The Era of Honor Begins
February 23, 2002
Philadelphia, PA
Murphy Rec Center
If the name didn’t give it away, this is the first-ever Ring of Honor show. The original idea was that ROH would take the best of the American independent wrestling scene and put them all onto a mega huge super show once a month. But it’s not going to be like all the other sportz entertainment bullcrap promotions that the mainstream companies have jammed down your throats for the past five years. ROH also refuses to give our fans the outdated insulting gimmicks that we saw from a decade ago. In fact, the wrestlers here must abide by a code of honor in order to remain in this promotion. What could go wrong, AMIRITE?
Before anything gets started, we see Da Hit Squad hyping ROH to the tour buses coming in from NYC and Boston.
Your hosts are Donnie B and Steve Corino.

The current Lucha Underground champs are as follows:
Lucha Underground Champion: Prince Puma (1/7/15)
Lucha Underground Trios Champions: Angelico, Ivelisse & Son of Havoc (4/22/15)
AAA Mega Champion: Alberto El Patron (12/7/14)
Dario Cueto and the Crew meet outside at some weird, dingy warehouse. He is very upset that the Crew couldn’t even secure the Trios championship when he basically handed it to them on a silver platter. Apparently they need some real motivation. Cueto opens the door and shows them whom call he calls his brother. A shadowy figure that appears to be behind bars stands up and gets really tall. We can’t see what or who it is though. Anyways, the Crew continue to slowly look up with their eyes and mouths wide open.
Your hosts are Matt Striker and Brother Vampiro.

We begin tonight’s program from wherever the black lotus is at. She’s still in her Mexican lucha libre training with El Dragon Azteca. She doesn’t know when he will let her fight, but she knows she is ready. She’s told that her anger is her greatest weakness, but Lotus feels it is her greatest strength. COME WITH ME. We get to see her fight off a bunch of dudes. This feels like Batman Begins to me. She gets into a back and forth struggle with El Dragon Azteca. When she fails, he knows she’s still not ready. Black Lotus looks very disappointed as we head over to the Temple.
Your hosts are Matt Striker and Brother Vampiro.

From the roof of the Temple, Dario Cueto approaches Aerostar while he is gazing out into the heavens. Cueto reminds Aerostar that Drago gets his inspiration from the depths of hell. If Aerostar sees a shooting star, he should make a wish. Be careful what you wish for though. Everything in his Temple has a price.

Over in Dario Cueto’s office, Prince Puma and Konnan are there. Dario wants this trios title to be a big deal, so he even wants the champ Puma to pick a couple partners for a tournament match next week. One of their opponents in that match will be King Cuerno who Cueto has chosen to face Prince Puma tonight in the main event – for the Lucha Underground title. Two title defenses in three weeks!

Tonight’s show starts in Dario Cueto’s office. Big Ryck introduces some friends of his to Dario: Kill Shot and his cousin The Mack. Not Mack, but THE Mack. CZW fans are familiar with Kill Shot who wrestled there as Shane Strickland while The Mack is better known to PWG fans as Willie Mack. Big Ryck heard that Cueto put the hit out on him that cost him his eye. Cueto denies the rumor and offers Ryck and his boys a spot in the Lucha Underground Trios title tournament. They seem down with that. Ryck sticks out his hand and Dario thinks he wants a handshake. HAHAHAHA, no. He wants a wad of hundreds. So does Kill Shot and The Mack. They walk away without laying a finger on El Jefe.
Your hosts are Matt Striker and Brother Vampiro.
