Line 56:
* Jade Chung got a big one after the original Steel Cage Warfare when she used Jimmy Rave as her own personal footstool after Steel Cage Warfare.
* How did the official formation of the Age of the Fall get left off here? For this troper, the sight of Jimmy Jacobs literally covered in Jay Briscoe's blood is both a CMOA and the most surreal thing she's ever seen in professional wrestling.
** Seconded. Some back story: A viral website starts to float around before the 161st ROH event, and the official ROH message boards swirl with confusion over what it means. At the actual show, things are relatively normal...until the tag match between [[Bash Brothers|The Briscoes]] and Kevin Steen & El Generico ends. After the match, out walks [[Ax Crazy|Necro Butcher]], Jimmy Jacobs (who, up to that point, had only been cast as a [[Butt Monkey|really incompetent flunkie]]), and Tyler Black. All three commit a [[Family
* [[Bryan Danielson]] is has been a living CMOA since day one ("The Era of Honor Begins") and shows no sign of stopping six years later (although he's been in the business for longer) or even when he got socked in the left eye so hard it detached his retina and fractured the eye socket ''early on'' in a big match. That's right, early on...
** He later got his revenge in the Fight Without Honor that main-evented the last show of 2008, ''Final Battle 2008''. Not a hardcore match per se, but even with the lack of a formal Code of Honor unlike the early days, it's ''still'' the feud-ending match in Ring of Honor... he won with ''twenty'' consecutive elbows wrapped in chain to the head followed by his signature Cattle Mutilation hold, but its own CMOA was how the match started... the lights went dark as usual for his entrance, but the lights came on as he charged into the ring from the opposite side, threw his opponent into the crowd, dove off the top rope onto his opponent in the crowd, all while his music was ''still'' playing... and then got up in time to point to the sky as the crowd sang, "IT'S THE FI-NAL COUNT-DOOOOOOWN!!"
