- ROH World Champion Jay Lethal broke the record for most combined days as champion at 646 days. The previous record holder was Samoa Joe who held the title for 645 consecutive days in 2003-2004. Lethal commented on passing Joe.

"Having the most combined days as champion doesn't mean I have surpassed Samoa Joe; it just solidified my name next to his in the history book," Lethal said. "I'm not sure anyone will ever beat Joe's record for one title reign. I needed two title reigns to do it."
