More details on the show...

Here's a second, more detailed report on the Ring of Honor TV taping in Philadelphia, courtesy Joshua Higham and PWInsider:

The cage is up so we are starting with Kevin Steen & Steve Corino defeating El Generico & Colt Cabana in a Steel Cage Match. In the beginning, Steen took the key to the cage and hit it in his trunks. At the end, Generico went to the top of the cage, but Steen threw him to the outside. Steen then locked in the crossface on Cabana while Corino dug into Cabana with a fork, and Cabana tapped.

2. Jay Freddie defeated Tony Kozina - There was no cameramen out for this one, so likely a dark match. Jay Freddie wins with a roll up. A surprising amount of reaction for Freddie.

3. All Night Express defeated Dark City Fight Club - King caught Davis with a school boy roll up after Davis had hit Titus with the Pounce.

Shane Hagadorn came out and called out Davey Richards for a confrontation. Hagadorn cut a pretty good promo blaming Davey for driving a wedge between Hagadorn & Eddie Edwards. Hagadorn told Davey "stay out of my way, or you'll get your ass beat." Davey hit Hagadorn, and the Kings of Wrestling came out and beat down Davey Richards. Eventually, Eddie Edwards made the save for his partner.

4. Sara del Rey defeated Rachel Summerlyn - del Ray wins with a kneebar or heel hook.

5. Christopher Daniels defeated Roderick Strong - This was a TV Main Event. House of Truth came out for the distraction. Truth tried to use the Book of Truth, but got crotched. Roddy hit Daniels with the book, but Paul Turner stopped the count when he saw the book in the ring, which allowed Daniels to hit the uranage and BME.

Jim Cornette comes out and announces that there was some sort of an altercation in the back between Tyler Black and Davey Richards, and Richards will be out to address it publicly. Davey calls out Tyler and says he wants one more match with him before he goes on to "greener pastures". Tyler tells Davey that he doesn't understand why Richards would choose competition over cash. Davey says he will pay Tyler out of his own pocket for one more match if he named a price and calls Tyler a "b**ch." Tyler accepts the match.

Cruise announces that later tonight we'll see Davey Richards vs. Tyler Black, and also Kings of Wrestling vs. Briscoe Brothers for the Tag Titles tonight.

6. Adam Cole, Mike Sydal & Colby Godwin (a ROH student that looks massive compared to Sydal and Cole) defeated Brandon Locke, Mike Taven & Mike Bennett - Again, no cameramen. Cole pins Taven after a cross body, which happened after everyone else hit their finishers.

7. Necro Butcher & Erick Stevens defeated Grizzly Redwood & Andy Ridge - Stevens pins Redwood after Ghanarea

8. Davey Richards defeated Tyler Black - One fall, to a finish. Tyler did not bring the World Title out with him, so no mention of the title, making this non-title (and fueling speculation that he'll lose it before this would air). Davey wins with a cloverleaf in a great TV match. Crowd was solidly against Tyler. Davey cuts a promo after and tells Tyler to let his new co-workers and the name on his paycheck know, that if they want to see real wrestling, come to South Philly. Tyler did get a "Thank You Tyler" chant after the match.

9. House of Truth defeated Super Smash Brothers - Josh Raymond pins Player Uno

10. Eddie Edwards defeated Rhett Titus to retain the TV Title - Rushed ending. Edwards hit a dive to the outside on Titus and seemed to hurt his hand. They rolled Titus in the ring and Edwards immediately pinned him. Edwards was clutching his wrist and immediately ran to the back after the match.

11. The Kings of Wrestling defeated The Briscoe Brothers to retain the ROH World Tag Team Titles - Kings teased leaving and not wrestling, Hero got in a confrontation with a couple of fans in the aisleway...fans were booted. Sara del Ray got ejected after hitting Mark Briscoe. Claudio pinned Jay after Shane kicked him in the junk. Hero had Mark tied up in a tree of woe at the end. Papa Briscoe jumped the rail and went after Hagadorn until the Kings bailed. Papa Briscoe got on the mic and called Shane a peckerhead, but didn't catch what else he said.

Notes: The crowd thinned out noticeably after the Richards/Black match.
