-ACH and Tadarius Thomas are now being called "Adrenaline Rush" and will continue working together as a tag team.

-Nigel McGuinness came out and talked about the ROH World title being vacant, and having to strip Jay Briscoe because he wasn't cleared to compete by doctors. He announced the tournament will begin in two weeks, so it looks like the first round matches won't begin until the August 17th taped episode. He also said the focus for the rest of the summer would be on the tag team division, and he will personally be bringing in wrestlers from all around the world.
-ReDRagon came down to talk to Nigel, and announced that they wanted to put the straps on the line tonight against the IWGP tag team champions. This brought out the American Wolves, and Davey Richards said that no matter who holds the titles, they were coming to get their belts back.
