They both appeared for Ring of Honor for the first time at <strong><em>ROH Reborn: Stage One<\/em><\/strong> in April of 2004. Delirious lost his match to <strong>Matt<\/strong> <strong>Sydal<\/strong> while Romero and <strong>Ricky<\/strong> <strong>Reyes<\/strong> lost to <strong>The <\/strong><strong>Briscoe Brothers <\/strong>in a tag team match. The two locked up in ROH a few times in 2007 in singles, tag, and four-corners survival matches. Delirious got the better of Romero in their one on one match at <em>ROH Dominiation<\/em> in June of 2007. The two last met in an ROH ring in a tag match where Romero, <strong>Davey<\/strong> <strong>Richards<\/strong>, and <strong>Roderick<\/strong> <strong>Strong<\/strong> defeated the team of Delirious, <strong>Erick<\/strong> <strong>Stevens<\/strong>, and <strong>Matt<\/strong> <strong>Cross<\/strong>.<\/p>\n<p>Romero was a special guest commentator during the <strong><em>19th Anniversary<\/em><\/strong> pay-per-view. Delirious approached the commentary desk and whispered something to Romero during the show. Whatever he whispered to Romero led to the match that we will see this week where they will settle their score from 2007.<\/p>\n<p>Pure Rules matches have a 20-minute time limit. The participants are allowed three rope breaks, and closed fist strikes to the head are not allowed.\u00a0 After a wrestler has used all three rope breaks, they can be pinned or submitted while holding or under the ropes. The first closed strike to the head gets a warning, with the second ending the match by disqualification. Competitors are encouraged to adhere to the <em>C<\/em>ode of Honor, and any bout that goes past the time limit will go to a panel of judges to decide the winner.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"600\" height=\"338\" class=\"size-full wp-image-88810 alignnone\" src=\"https:\/\/lastwordonsports.com\/prowrestling\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/15\/2021\/04\/roh-tv-499.jpg\" alt=\"ROH TV #499\" srcset=\"https:\/\/lastwordonsports.com\/prowrestling\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/15\/2021\/04\/roh-tv-499.jpg 600w, https:\/\/lastwordonsports.com\/prowrestling\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/15\/2021\/04\/roh-tv-499-300x169.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 600px) 100vw, 600px\" \/><\/p>\n<h3>Jonathan Gresham and Jay Lethal vs. Bandido and Flamita<\/h3>\n<\/div>\n<p><strong>Jay Lethal<\/strong> and <strong>Jonathan<\/strong> <strong>Gresham<\/strong> will represent <strong>The Foundation<\/strong> against <strong>Bandido<\/strong> and <strong>Flamita<\/strong> of <strong>MexiSquad<\/strong>.

The triple threat match was made for the event which ended with Bandido pinning Flamita for the win.
