In the aftermath of "At Our Best" (available in the archives btw), Ring of Honor entered a new chapter, set its sights on the Mid-West, and began the "Reborn" cycle that lasted a better part of the spring/summer of 2004.
First stop: St. Paul...coincidentally the same city where WCW was reborn with the debut of Nitro...and a World Title bout between Homicide and Samoa Joe! Jeff and Shane jump right into this one to discuss awful travel experiences, Matt Stryker surprising them both, the fiery conclusion, and abdominal stretches.
