Backstage: Athena, Lexy Nair, Billie Starkz

ROH started with Women’s Champion Athena alongside Billie Starkz and Lexy Nair. She told Starkz that she embarrassed her last week with her loss and that she had the chance to make things right tonight with a win against Marina Shafir. After dismissing Starkz, Athena turned her attention to Eddie Kingston. She took issue with the ROH World Champion saying that certain champions weren’t carrying their weight in the company, as she had been carrying the show on her back since she became champion. Athena wanted everyone to show her the proper respect.

ROH World Championship Proving Ground Match
Lee Johnson vs. Eddie Kingston

It’s noted that if Johnson wins, he will get a match against the Triple Crown Champion after the Continental Classic concludes.

Johnson slid through Kingston’s legs before hitting a pendulum DDT to create space.

Johnson hit Kingston with a power slam for a nearfall. Kingston drilled Johnson with elbows before a pair of overhead suplexes scored a nearfall. Johnson ducked a backfist and hit an acrobatic neckbreaker for a nearfall.

Winner: Eddie Kingston via Pinfall.

The Infantry (Charlie Bravo & Capt. Shawn Dean) vs. The Boys (Brandon & Brent Tate)

As the Boys now wear Mardi Gras masks, it becomes even harder to tell them apart. They double-teamed Bravo, scoring a nearfall after a backstabber. Dean tagged in, but the Boys kept control of him with quick offense. Bravo got a tag in, allowing The Infantry to take control.

After a few minutes, the Boy got a tag out to the fresh Boy, who ran wild on Dean. The Infantry came back quickly, scoring the win with Boot Camp.

Winner: The Infantry via Pinfall.

Backstage: Rachael Ellering, Maria Kanellis, Leyla Hirsch

Rachel Ellering was backstage with Lexy Nair. Ellering brought up Leyla Hirsch’s knee injury, which brought in Maria, who noted that Hirsch was doing well. Ellering asked what Maria was doing when she spoke to the Renegade Sisters last week when Hirsch walked in. Hirsch also asked about Maria’s conversation, with Maria blowing it off. Hirsch wanted to know if she’d have her back tonight, with both Maria and Ellering saying yes.

Winner: Emi Sakura via Pinfall.

Leyla Hirsch vs. Heather Reckless

Does Hirsch want Maria’s help or not? Let’s get to the next step of this story here.

Winner: Leyla Hirsch via Submission.

After the match, Maria went to give a handshake but Hirsch blew her off again.

Willie Mack vs. Robert Anthony

Mack scored a quick win, hitting a powerbomb after catching a crossbody attempt.

Winner: Willie Mack via Pinfall.

Marina Shafir vs. Billie Starkz

Between the crowd not being into it and Shafir’s style making for a tough matchup, this was rough.

Starkz piefaced Shafir when Shafir wouldn’t let go of the handshake at the start of the match. Starkz stalled outside of the ring, giving her best Larry Zbyszko impression. Shafir got her hands on Starkz and threw her around. Starkz sent Shafir to the floor, but Shafir caught her dive and flung her into the barricade.

They battled on the floor, with Starkz hitting a suplex on the floor. Starkz set up a Swanton Bomb in the ring, but Shafir cut her off. Starkz hit a rebound kick instead, following with a bridging German suplex for a nearfall. Starkz taunted Shafir with kicks before Shafir caught the foot. They scrambled before Starkz hit a forearm that knocked Shafir down. Shafir dropped Starkz and laid her out with a kick for a nearfall.

Shafir dropped Starkz with a lariat. The two traded strikes before Shafir fired up with forearms. Shafir laid in kicks before tying Starkz up with a submission.

Winner: Billie Starkz via Pinfall.

After the match, Starkz jumped Shafir after the bell and sent her out of the ring. Athena and Lexy Nair came out with a cap and gown for Starkz. After giving a speech, she made sure to name Nair the valedictorian of the Minion In Training Class of 2023, to the disappointment of Starkz. Nair gave an acceptance speech before Athena signed off. Starkz bowed up to Athena but relented and left the ring. They posed on the ramp before Starkz turned on Athena, sending her into the barricade and standing over her with the title.

(I could personally do without the NXT-style graduation segment, but this was effective in doing the split.)

Castle teased a chop before taking Uno down with an ankle pick. Castle hit a pair of splashes before Uno bailed to the floor. Uno threw Castle around at ringside before clubbering on Castle in the ring.
