and Austin Aries
, who had since been in an ongoing feud over the past year originating with Black's membership in the villainous
faction, The Age of the Fall
, as the protege of group leader, Jimmy Jacobs

with Aries, which saw the two have numerous encounters until Jacobs turned on Black, leading to a brief truce between the latter and Aries until Aries turned on Black, citing his disdain for the fans. Also feuding at the time were Japan
ese professional wrestlers Kenta

, and Katsuhiko Nakajima
, of Kensuke Office. The two had been feuding in Japan over Noah's GHC Junior Heavyweight Championship
, held at the time by Kenta. The four wrestlers were scheduled to compete in a tag team match with Black and Kenta facing Aries and Nakajima.
Brent Albright
and Claudio Castagnoli
recently had a series of matches that had a number of inconclusive decisions, with Albright not being content at winning a few by default. The two would plan to meet at Take No Prisoners in a tag team match choosing their own partners. Castagnoli chose frequent ally, then-ROH World Champion
, Nigel McGuinness
, while Albright chose the NWA World Heavyweight Champion
, Blue Demon, Jr.
. It was later announced on the show that the tag match was changed to a triple threat between Albright, Castagnoli, and Demon; McGuinness withdrew from the match due to suffering a biceps
tear weeks before and losing the ROH World Championship to Jerry Lynn
the night before at Super Card of Honor IV.
The ROH World title would end up being defended at Take No Prisoners. As noted above, McGuinness lost the title the night prior to Jerry Lynn, who made a challenge to defend the title for the first time on the show in a Four Corner Survival match against Bryan Danielson
, Erick Stevens
, and D'Lo Brown
.
Another major match going into the show is a No Disqualification match pitting Jimmy Jacobs against his former ally in The Age of the Fall, Necro Butcher
. The feud was based around Jacobs abusing his authority over Necro during his time with The Age of the Fall, frustrating him to the point where he quit, to which Jacobs responded by having The Age of the Fall violently attack him on several occasions.
pitting Alex Payne, Bobby Dempsey, and Andy Ridge against Andy Duncan, Spiro, and Don Juan, which saw Dempsey pin Spiro following his finishing maneuver, the Death Valley driver. Following the first match on the card, there was another match for the crowd in attendance pitting Mike Dell and Shawn Vexx against Darin Childs and JT Lamotta, which JT Lamotta pinned Shawn Vexx for the victory. Also, an additional match featured Rhett Titus
against veteran wrestler Luke Williams
, which saw Titus get the victory by pinning Williams.
. The match started with both wrestlers comedically
inspecting the structural integrity of the top rope, which broke during a match the night prior, before starting their match eventually won by Cabana after making Steel submit
to an inverted version of the Boston crab
dubbed the Chicago Crab.
Succeeding the third dark match was an eight-man tag team match
pitting the team of Kevin Steen
, El Generico
, Jay Briscoe
, and guest-appearing from Asistencia Asesoría y Administración
(AAA), Magno, against Chris Hero
, Davey Richards
, Eddie Edwards
of Sweet n' Sour Inc., and guest from AAA, Incognito
. The match was kept at a fast pace and brawling that eventually ended by Briscoe catching Hero with a piledriver
, driving his head to the mat, followed up by the former team scoring the victory.
Jimmy Jacobs would wrestle Necro Butcher next in a No-Disqualification match that quickly degenerated to a brawl on the floor area surrounding the ring before both wrestlers made their way into the crowd, which eventually had Jacobs pull out his signature railroad spike to use as a weapon against his opponent, cutting open his face. This would do little to phase Necro Butcher, as he would return to the ring area to place Jacobs onto the top turnbuckle
before suplexing him off onto the floor of the arena. After some trading of shots with a steel chair, Necro Butcher punched his adversary in the face before executing a sit-down powerbomb to him to get the pinfall.
The following match was scheduled to be a tag team match pitting Nigel McGuinness and Claudio Castagnoli against Brent Albright and Blue Demon, Jr., but due to the aforementioned injury of McGuinness, the match became a triple threat match. The match started as a fight between Castagnoli and Demon with Demon throwing his opponent to the floor of the arena with a headscissors takedown over the top rope. As Albright made his way into the match, he attacked Castagnoli. The match would end by Albright catching Castagnoli in a half nelson, suplexing him before pinning him.
AAA had another guest competitor in Alex Koslov
against Roderick Strong
. The match was based around both men delivering heavy shots and stiff throws to each other with neither man being able to pin their opponent. The match would end by Strong delivering a kick to Koslov's face before hooking his legs, and applying a Boston crab he calls the Strong Hold to get the submission victory.
The main event match followed with Austin Aries and Katsuhiko Nakajima versus Tyler Black and Kenta. Early on, the match centered around Kenta and Nakajima delivering aggressive kicks to each other, but not budging at all. This was followed up by Black getting into the match before being double-teamed by his opponents, only to have his partner aide him. From that point, Kenta and Nakajima would continue to exchange kicks and stomps before Kenta hoisted Nakajima on his shoulders to execute his knee to the face dubbed the Go 2 Sleep, only to be countered by a headscissors from his opponent. Aries would be tagged into the match, connecting with a suplex
and a kick of his own before Black would make his way into the ring. The match ended with Black grabbing Aries with a facelock before executing a leg hook brainbuster before getting the pinfall victory .
