Jay Lethal beats Rhino. Best part was Corino on commentary.

Corino and Jacobs set up Lethal post match and Rhino attacks.

Guessing these guys will figure into the main event.

Candy canes and Christmas trees being used as weapons in the WGTT-Titus/Whitmer street fight.

I think Charlie Haas just killed BJ Whitmer. Belly to belly suplex from the top rope through a table for the win.

Mike Bennett beats Jerry Lynn with help from Maria.

Nice postmatch send off for Lynn.

Intermission time.

Lethal came out and demanded to be in the main event instead of Generico. Nigel said he's first up if Generico wins. Lethal spits on Nigel and is thrown out of the building.

So it's almost guaranteed he will be involved later.

American Wolves win. No one cares.

Cole beat Fat Hardy.

Briscoes beat SCUM to win tag team titles.

Kevin Steen beat Generico to keep the title.

Not a bad show.

Actually a great time if you're there live. We get out around 6pm; they got plenty of time to pack up the ring and/or fly home. I've come to really like the side balconies -- only thing better is front row if they throw someone into the barricade, at you...

Yeah I imagine it'd be great to be at.

Just seems weird to have it during football on Sunday.

Oh well. I bought it.

Pissed that Lethal didn't mess with the ladders match. If Corny were there instead of Nigel, they would have switched the main event into a 3-way right after the "confrontation."

I thought it was a given that Lethal would interfere after Corino and Jacobs attacked him.

Didn't think about TLC being held Sunday. So there's your early start in a nutshell. Plus it was convenient.

Although I shudder to think of someone doing ROH in the afternoon, then heading to the WWE show in the evening. Too much "Vince" for me...

Shelton Benjamin Released From ROH Contract
STEVEN CONEY

It is being reported that Shelton Benjamin, one half of Wrestling’s Greatest Tag Team alongside Charlie Haas, has asked for and been granted his release from his Ring of Honor contract.

Details are still sketchy but it is thought that Shelton wants to negotiate with the WWE about a possible return. Both WWE and TNA are reluctant to talk to talent that are under ROH contract so this will give Shelton more freedom to sort out his future. It is thought that he will continue with ROH in the mean time on a pay-per-appearance deal.

Benjamin and Haas made their ROH debuts at ‘Glory By Honor IX’, beating the Kings of Wrestling. They would go on to sign contracts with the company and win the ROH World Tag Team titles twice. The first time defeating the Kings at ‘Honor Takes Center Stage‘ in 2011. The second title reign started earlier this year at ‘Border Wars‘ when they defeated The Briscoes. Most recently, they beat BJ Whitmer and Rhett Titus at Sunday’s ‘Final Battle 2012‘ iPPV in a New York City Street Fight.

Surprise entrant in Royal Rumble.

If he comes in as a non-goofball character, great. I just don't want to see a reprise of all that garbage.

Shelton may be thinking though, how long does he still have? And if he can do a schedule in the WWE still, why the hell not?
That being said, I always liked him teamed up with Haas. So I'd buy them together as an "angry" team...
