ROH best in the world complete results for 19 June 2015 Tonight's event features the biggest match the company has seen in years as World Champion Jay Briscoe takes on Television Champion Jay Lethal.
Donovan Dijak (w/ Truth Martini) vs. Mark Briscoe (w/ ODB)
No Code of Honor for these two. Briscoe gets powered down and tries to avoid locking up with Dijak. Mark flips out of a back body drop attempt and scores a Russian leg sweep attempt that only gets a one count. Dijak answers with a suplex slam that sends Briscoe all the way across the ring. The 6'7 Dijak then hits the Jeff Hardy corner dropkick.
Dijak uses some Titus O'Neil sack of potatoes offense before bodyslamming Briscoe over the top rope, which looked brutal. Back inside, that gets a two count. Briscoe fires back with a second rope dropkick, then a mule kick, but he's still hurting from that big spot outside the ring.
Redneck kung-fu helps Briscoe get an advantage, and sends Dijak to the outside, where Mark lands a suicide dropkick. Truth Martini tries to get involved, but ODB catches him and tears up the book of Truth as Mark lands the Blockbuster to the floor, which doesn't do his back any favors.
A big body press from Dijak gets two, and he apparently misses Feast Your Eyes, but it didn't look like it. Briscoe hits a brainbuster and a FroggyBow for the pin.
Winner: Mark Briscoe via pinfall (FroggyBow)

Castle sunset flips Young, but can't get him over, so his boys fan Young to get him over. Castle pulls Young's pants down and spanks him before landing a nice overhead suplex. Young fights back and comes off the top but Castle catches him and suplexes for two. That was impressive. Young finally gains an advantage when he DDTs Castle into the bottom turnbuckle.
The two are trading strikes on the apron, which leads to Silas going between the turnbuckles and taking both guys out. He tries to toss Castle in the ring, but he does a rebound headscissors. Back inside, the two trade nearfalls until Castle scores a deadlift German suplex for a two count.
Young goes up to the top rope, but Young crotches him. He goes for a pin, but the referee won't count since he cheated. While they're arguing, Castle hits a low blow and rolls up Young for the win.
