The members of The Prophecy were Christopher Daniels , Simply Luscious , Donovan Morgan , Xavier , Dan Maff , Mark Briscoe , Allison Danger , and B . J . Whitmer . Samoa Joe briefly worked for The Prophecy , but was never a member . Jim Cornette briefly joined The Prophecy , but was kicked out the same night for obeying the Code of Honor . History . Formation ( 2002 ) . Christopher Daniels competed in the main event of the debut ROH show , " The Era of Honor Begins " , against Low Ki and American Dragon . After losing to Low Ki , Daniels became a villain and refused to shake hands with either opponent , breaking the Code of Honor . The three competed against each other the following show in a Round Robin tournament . After defeating Dragon on the opening match , Daniels forced him to shake his hand because " the better man won " . However , after losing to Low Ki in his second match , he refused to shake his hand , and said he would not wrestle Low Ki again unless the ROH Championship ( which had not been created yet ) was on the line . At " Night of Appreciation " , Daniels wrestled Donovan Morgan in a singles match . Before the match Daniels said in a backstage interview that he had a lot of respect for Morgan because they were both California wrestlers and they had both won the ECWA Super 8 Tournament , but after he lost he refused to shake Morgan ’ s hand . He said it was not because he did not respect Morgan , but because he believed the Code of Honor was a lie . The two then formed a partnership . At " Road to the Title " , The Prophecy was official created . Daniels revealed he had seen a prophecy , where he was to lead a group of elite athletes and destroy the Code of Honor , and rebuild ROH in their image . He then announced the first official member Simply Luscious , who felt she had been mistreated by Ring of Honor since the first show . Daniels attempted to become the first ROH Champion when he competed in a sixty minute iron man match against Low Ki , Spanky and Doug Williams at " Crowning a Champion " . Despite being the only wrestler to be neither pinned nor submitted , Daniels lost the title to his rival Low Ki . The Prophecy got their revenge two shows later at " Unscripted " . During Low Ki ' s title defense against Xavier , Daniels came to the ring to distract him . While Low Ki was distracted , Xavier attacked him from behind and , with the help of Daniels , beat him with a chair and a cement pole . Low Ki crawled back into the ring and was pinned by Xavier , making him the new ROH Champion . After the match , it was made clear that Xavier was the newest member of The Prophecy . Later that night , Daniels and Morgan defeated American Dragon and Mike Modest in the finals of a one night tournament to become the first ROH Tag Team Champions . Even though Daniels and Morgan won the title , any members could defend them . At " Glory by Honor " , The Prophecy refused to put any of the titles on the line . The Prophecy wanted Xavier to wrestle someone who he could easily beat and , at the advice of Mark Briscoe , squared off against Jay Briscoe . Despite having lost the majority of his matches in ROH , Jay scored a major upset by beating the ROH Champion . Later , The Prophecy ' s hired assassin Samoa Joe ( in his Ring of Honor debut ) faced Low Ki in ROH ' s first Fight Without Honor . After losing the hard - hitting battle , Joe showed his true colors by obeying the Code of Honor and shaking Low Ki ' s hand . In the main event , Daniels faced Doug Williams in a grudge match from " Crowning a Champion " . Angry over Daniels ' s refusal to shake his hand after the match , Williams challenged him to a match where if he lost Daniels would have to disband The Prophecy and adhere to the Code of Honor . If Williams lost , however , he would no longer be allowed to shake and therefore continually broke the Code of Honor . After winning , Daniels mocked Williams by offering to shake his hand . Despite some tension between The Prophecy and Samoa Joe , who refused to ruin his integrity by disobeying the Code of Honor , The Prophecy continued to be successful for the remainder of the year . At " Scramble Madness " , rival brothers Jay and Mark Briscoe faced each other in a tag match . Jay chose Amazing Red as his partner , while Mark chose Daniels .

At " Final Battle 2002 " , while Daniels and Simply Luscious were in the ring talking with Gary Michael Capetta , Steve Corino , Daniel ' s friend and Luscious ' real life boyfriend , came out and said he was going to form a group of his own , one that was so elite it did not even need a name , and they were going to take all the belts in Ring of Honor . He then threatened to break up with Luscious because she was a member of The Prophecy , but stopped when she left them and join The Group . Samoa Joe , also tired of Daniels and The Prophecy , left to join his friend and fellow Pro Wrestling Zero1 wrestler Corino as a member of The Group . Corino said that it was only business and not to be taken personally by Christopher Daniels . Daniels responded by bringing Allison Danger , the real life sister of Steve Corino , into The Prophecy , and start a feud between the two factions . At " Expect the Unexpected " , Daniels and Xavier lost the tag team title to A . J . Styles and Amazing Red .

Xavier then lost the title to Joe . He then took time off from ROH , and The Prophecy , to heal . With Xavier gone , Morgan rarely in Ring of Honor anymore , and Mark Briscoe quietly leaving The Prophecy to form a tag team with his brother , Daniels began to search out new members for The Prophecy . At " The Epic Encounter " , Dan Maff walked out on his partner Monsta Mack after losing to The Backseat Boyz . Later that night , Daniels wrestled Homicide , Maff ' s trainer , in a singles match . After the match , The Group ran down and attacked both wrestlers . Maff ran down and chased them away , seemingly to help his trainer , but ripped off his " Repeat Offenders " shirt to reveal a Prophecy shirt underneath . He then threw his old shirt on top a Homicide ' s unconscious face and walked away with Daniels and Danger . After the show , he was confronted by Monsta Mack , who wanted to know why he joined The Prophecy . Maff told him that he was getting nowhere in ROH by obeying the Code of Honor , but that he could rise to the top by siding with Daniels .

The Prophecy won when Maff pinned the ROH Champion Samoa Joe . Donovan Morgan left ROH , and thus The Prophecy , after the match . As a result of pinning the champion , Maff was granted a match for the ROH Championship at " Wrestle Rave 2003 " .

The Prophecy tried to get back on track at " Wrath of the Racket " , when manager Jim Cornette made his ROH debut and aligned himself with The Prophecy . Cornette , known as a tag team specialist , he thought The Prophecy was a great team and managed them in the match for the ROH Tag Team Championship against A . J . Styles and Amazing Red . During intermission , when Styles and Red ( who already had an injured knee going into the event ) , The Prophecy and Cornette attacked them . Red injured his knee to such a degree that he was not able to compete that night , and A . J . Styles was left to find another partner or face The Prophecy by himself . Styles chose Dan Maff ' s former trainer Homicide as his partner , and the two went on to successfully retain the titles . Cornette , despite being a member of The Prophecy , shook the hands of Styles and Homicide because the better team won .

The referee stopped the match after Low Ki legitimately knocked Maff out after kicking him in the head . At " Glory by Honor II " , Xavier competed in his first match of the " Field of Honor " tournament .

Daniels chased Punk out of the ring and announced that The Prophecy was behind the attack , but he did not do it .
