Ring of Honor (ROH)'s North American tour with New Japan continued on Monday night, as the crew who worked Global Wars in Chicago on May 8 travelled to Dearborn, Michigan for a War of the Worlds billed tour date on the 9th.
The crowd in the Detroit area was told the show was being taped for Video on Demand (VOD) and DVD release, but there was a change to set-up and lighting for the main event, which seemed to indicate it would eventually air on the weekly ROH TV show.
The news the company already spoiled for you was the tag title change*, and the full show report explains how that match - which wasn't on the card heading into the night - ended up going down.
Potential spoilers follow:
- Kamaitachi def. Will Ferrera in a web-exclusive match
- Adam Cole and the Bullet Club open with a promo, calling out Jay Lethal, Colt Cabana, the Briscoes and Motor City Machine Guns. The two tag teams appear, call off the match they were scheduled to have against each other and challenge the Bullet Club. That group has five guys (Young Bucks, Guerrillas of Destiny and Cole), so they tell the ROH crew they need a fifth. Adam Page volunteers and want to start the five-on-five right away. Nick Jackson says they don't curtain jerk, and BC leaves saying that match will be the main event.
- Matt Sydal & ACH def. Beer City Bruiser & Silas Young
- Roderick Strong def. Lio Rush, who was replacing an injured Jushin Thunder Liger. Liger did make the save when Roddy went for a post-match beatdown, and stayed to work commentary on the next few matches.
- War Machine def. Kazuchika Okada & Gedo to retain their Tag Team titles
- The Addiction showed up to propose at title match for New York on Saturday, but the champs said let's do it right now.
- KUSHIDA def. Dalton Castle
- Hiroshi Tanahashi & Michael Elgin def. ANX
- Tomohiro Ishii def. Moose
- The Addiction def. War Machine to become the NEW ROH Tag Team champs
- reDRagon def. Jay Lethal & Tetsuya Naito. The ROH World champ took the pin after some miscommunication with the IWGP champ. Looked to be setting up both a Kyle O'Reilly and Naito matches for Lethal in the future.
- Bullet Club def. Briscoes, MCMG & Colt Cabana. Bucks announced the Superkick Party had started early backstage and they took out Page. After a five-on-four beatdown, and Adam Cole promo was interrupted by Cabana. Lots of the usual Club schtick, as a referee was taken out and then Page ran-in, revealing he had joined BC. The heels pinned Mark Briscoe for the win, and hung Chris Sabin by the neck form the ropes after the match. Colt cut a promo on them while they celebrated.
Just hanging out with Chris Sabin! Lolololol. Welcome to the Biz Cliz, @theAdamPage! pic.twitter.com/PZDom9d5P9

Sound good?
*UPDATE: ROH has announced the Page to Bullet Club angle along with a rundown of the whole night, so even if these will air later, I guess the spoiler gloves are off.
