Ring of Honor presented Death Before Dishonor 2025, a night filled with title changes and standout performances. The card, which aired for free on YouTube after some early technical hiccups, delivered plenty of memorable moments for ROH fans. Here’s a rundown of the action.
Pre-Show
- Jay Lethal def. Jordan Oliver
Veteran vs. up-and-comer kicked things off. Oliver nearly stole one with a slick roll-up, but Lethal regained control, punishing the leg with dragon screw whips before locking in the Figure Four. With no escape in sight, Oliver was forced to tap. - MxM Collection (Mansoor & Mason Madden) def. Dark Order (Alex Reynolds & John Silver) and Griff Garrison & Cole Karter
A wild three-way tag match saw Dark Order firing up late, even hitting their signature combo on Mansoor. Just as Reynolds had a pin secured, Johnny TV sprayed “Seed” perfume in his eyes, allowing Mansoor to steal the win. - After his win, Lethal’s night wasn’t done — Blake Christian and Lee Johnson interrupted to remind everyone that Christian already owns a win over him. They vowed to take out more ROH legends when they meet The Kingdom.
- Billie Starkz def. Ashley Vox (Pure Rules Match)
Starkz mixed her usual offense with the Pure Rules system, even landing a closed fist that earned her a referee warning. Vox fought with heart, but Starkz ultimately sealed it with a nasty backbreaker. - $50,000 Four-Way: Dralistico def. Adam Priest, Angelico & AR Fox
Dralistico survived a chaotic sprint, wiping out everyone (including Serpentico on the floor) before nailing Angelico with a flying Codebreaker to claim the cash prize.
Death Before Dishonor Main Card
- Tomohiro Ishii & Hologram def. Ari Daivari & Tony Nese
- ROH World Six-Man Tag Team Championship: Shane Taylor Promotions def. The Sons of Texas (Sammy Guevara, Ross & Marshall Von Erich)
Shane Taylor, Shawn Dean, and Carlie Bravo captured the gold in a hard-fought clash, cutting short Guevara and the Von Erichs’ reign. - Women’s Pure Championship Tournament Quarterfinal: Queen Aminata def. Taya Valkyrie
Aminata advanced in the inaugural tournament, knocking off the veteran Valkyrie to move one step closer to the historic title. - Blake Christian & Lee Johnson def. The Kingdom (Matt Taven & Mike Bennett)
Christian and Johnson backed up their pre-show words with a big victory over the decorated Kingdom. - ROH Pure Championship: Lee Moriarty (c) def. Xelhua
Technical wrestling at its finest. Xelhua burned through all three rope breaks before finding himself trapped in Moriarty’s octopus hold. With nowhere to go, the luchador submitted, keeping the title around Moriarty’s waist. - Fight Without Honor: QT Marshall def. Paul Walter Hauser
Hollywood clashed with hardcore in a brutal showdown. Hauser bled and battled through kendo stick shots and even a terrifying powerbomb on thumbtacks. Hook made a surprise appearance to neutralize Aaron Solo, but in the end, QT survived a low blow and nailed an avalanche cutter through a glass-covered table for the win. Post-match, QT showed respect by fist-bumping the bloodied actor. - ROH World Tag Team Championship: Sammy Guevara & Rush def. The Outrunners
Rush was revealed as Guevara’s mystery partner, and the two captured the tag gold. After surviving a late Outrunners rally, Rush hit the Bull’s Horns before Guevara sealed the win with a dive. The celebration turned sour when Guevara betrayed the Von Erichs with a superkick, as LFI laid waste to the brothers. - ROH World Championship: Bandido (c) def. Hechicero
In what many will call the match of the night, Bandido and Hechicero put on a near half-hour masterpiece. After countering each other’s signature moves, Bandido finally caught the technical wizard with a bridging German suplex to retain. A must-watch bout for ROH fans. - ROH Women’s World Championship: Athena (c) def. Mina Shirakawa
The main event was a 25-minute war. With The Blue Meanie briefly involved in some early antics, things turned serious as both women targeted injuries — Mina’s hand, Athena’s knee. Shirakawa nearly scored the upset with a Mina Driver, but Athena powered through with a straitjacket powerbomb and sealed the deal with the O-Face. “The Fallen Goddess” continues her dominant reign as the “Forever Champion.”
