Second report of 5/21 ROH in Chicago Ridge event

Noah A Kasper passed this report in:

At the beginning of the show, Jim Cornette comes out and announces the sale to Sinclair Broadcasting Group out of Baltimore. He then goes on to explain that nothing will change in ROH. Also he announces that on August 13, 2011, when ROH returns to Chicago Ridge, it will be the first tapings for the TV Debut on Sinclair Broadcasting.

Match 2: Kyle O’Reilly and Adam Cole pinned Lancelot and Harlem Bravado after the Lung Blower/Back Cracker Combo on Lancelot

Pre-Match: Steve Corino comes out and says that his sponsor is here tonight and he would like to introduce him which then prompts Mike Bennett to come out and tell Corino that he keeps talking about this sponsor but night in and night out he keeps getting beat up with no one coming out to help Corino which leads Bennett to proclaim that he has no one back there which leads to JIMMY JACOBS walking out leading into Bennett running to the back and a speech by Jacobs on him trying to be accepted back into the ROH locker room and hoping ROH officials will allow him to stay in ROH. Bennett comes out again with referee’s, ring crew and Jim Cornette which they then lead Jacobs to the back.
