ROH is back this Thursday night, exclusively on Honor Club, with some tremendous action, including ROH Women's World Champion Athena defending her championship against “Legit” Leyla Hirsch! Also, Satoshi Kojima returns to Ring of Honor to take on Tony Nese, TMDK of Mikey Nicholls and Shane Haste take on The Infantry of Carlie Bravo and Capt. Shawn Dean, and Scorpio Sky is in action against Fred Rosser! All that and so much more comes to the ROH Faithful this Thursday at 7pm ET/6pm CT, exclusively on Honor Club, the home for Ring of Honor's archives, featuring the most influential professional wrestling of the 21st century! ROH WOMEN'S WORLD CHAMPIONSHIP MATCH... “The Fallen Goddess” Athena(c) (w/ Billie Starkz) vs. “Legit” Leyla Hirsch “The Fallen Goddess” Athena has been ROH Women's World Champion for nearly 300 days, in fact should she make it to Friday with the title still in her possession, Athena will actually hit that milestone; all she has to do is defeat her 17th challenger on Thursday night. As she stated in her above embedded tirade directed at Billie Starks, Athena is slated to step into the ring with “Legit” Leyla Hirsch for her next defense, a woman who's on a 10 match singles win streak in Ring of Honor, and actually hasn't lost a one-on-one bout in ROH or AEW since the March 18, 2022 edition of RAMPAGE! But she's also a woman who's got a lot on her plate aside from the match, most notably the attention of one Maria Kanellis-Bennett So with this first ever bout between Athena and Leyla Hirsch, will it be the winning streak of “The Fallen Goddess” that remains intact, or will it be that of Hirsch? Will the former continue building her legacy as champion, seemingly destined to be “The Forever Champ” in reality as well as in her own mind, or will the latter bring it all to a sudden end in Seattle? ONE-ON-ONE... Satoshi Kojima vs. Tony Nese Making his first appearance for Ring of Honor at FINAL BATTLE 2003 where he defeated “The Notorious 187” Homicide, Satoshi Kojima made several appearances for ROH over the years, including facing Jay Lethal for the ROH World Championship in 2016 during the G1 Climax and challenging for the ROH World Six-Man Titles on May 8, 2019, making his final appearance on May 12th a few days later. But this Thursday night on Honor Club, the multi-time World Champion will return to Ring of Honor to take on Tony Nese in singles competition! This is one of the biggest fights Nese has had since coming into the ROH fold, and it would skyrocket Tony's profile on an international scale if he can defeat Kojima on Honor Club. Fans got to see Kojima in action during the WRESTLEDREAM: ZERO HOUR, and now they've got a second opportunity this week during Ring of Honor! This man is a one of those legends of Japanese wrestling who can still throw with the best even after 32 years of in-ring combat, so do not miss out on your chance to see Satoshi Kojima compete! ALSO FEATURING: -Scorpio Sky vs. Fred Rosser -TMDK (Mickey Nicholls & Shane Haste) vs. The Infantry (Carlie Bravo & Capt. Shawn Dean) -“All Ego” Ethan Page in action! -Billie Starkz vs. Trish Adora! -Christopher Daniels vs. Rocky Romero -Shane Taylor Promotions (Shane Taylor & Lee Moriarty) vs. Workhorsemen (JD Drake & Anthony Henry) vs. Iron Savages (Boulder & Bronson) vs. Cole Karter & Griff Garrison -And more!!! Ring of Honor returns Thursday night with an all-new ROH ON HONOR CLUB starting at 7pm ET/6pm CT and featuring “The Fallen Goddess” Athena defending the AEW Women's World Championship against “Legit” Leyla Hirsch! Plus the legendary Satoshi Kojima returns to ROH for the first time since 2019 to battle Tony Nese, The Infantry welcome TMDK back to ROH for their first outing since a March 2012 fight with The Briscoes, Ethan Page is once again in action, “The Fallen Angel” Christopher Daniels competes, a wild Women's Trios match is on tap, and so much more! It's only available on Honor Club, also the place to find twenty-plus years worth of professional wrestling history from THE ERA OF HONOR BEGINS to BEST IN THE WORLD 2012 to DEATH BEFORE DISHONOR 2023!

In addition to the news that Ring of Honor World Champion Eddie Kingston defending his championship, as well as the NJPW STRONG Openweight Championship, against ROH Pure Champion Katsuyori Shibata this Sunday at WRESTLEDREAM, last week also saw the crowning of new ROH World Six-Man Champions as The Elite defeated The Mogul Embassy to become 2-Time Champs! Then, just last night on DYNAMITE, we learned that one-half of the ROH World Tag Champions, Adam Cole, had suffered an injury that will keep him out of action for several months, which should necessitate a vacating of the belts, but instead AEW World Champion MJF has decided to face The Righteous along on Sunday! But before we get there, ROH is back exclusively on Honor Club (www.watchroh.com) with a big edition of the show! In front of his home audience, Jimmy Jacobs returns to ROH action for the first time since 2015 to take on Shane Taylor! Plus, Athena's Minion in Training Billie Starkz will collide with Lady Frost, The Gates of Agony meet The Iron Savages, Ethan Page is back in ROH action, and Mercedes Martinez takes on the challenge of Allysin Kay. It begins at 7pm ET/6pm CT, exclusively on Honor Club (www.watchroh.com), the home for Ring of Honor's history featuring the most influential matches and wrestlers of the 21st Century! A RETURN TO HONOR... Shane Taylor vs. “The Zombie Princess” Jimmy Jacobs Besides Jay & Mark Briscoe, no man has held the tag team titles more than Jimmy Jacobs. A 5-time champ with 3 different partners, all told he spent 392 days as a champion, but never was able to claim a singles title despite challenging for the World Title a handful of times, or the one chance he had to claim the Television Championship during Matt Taven's reign. All of that is a roundabout way of saying Jacobs greatest successes in ROH came in tag team competition, but that never stopped him from being a tremendous singles competitor and claiming victories over Bryan Danielson, Roderick Strong, a young Adam Page, and Tyler Black, just to name a few, and it is to singles competition that he returns this Thursday night on Honor Club! Unfortunately for Jimmy he finds Shane Taylor standing across the ring from him, a man who was frustrated in his ALL OUT 2023 championship fight with Samoa Joe but has used that fight to further fuel his motivation to become champion once again. It's a tremendous fight for Jacobs to mark as his ROH homecoming, and whether this is a one-time thing, or ROH sees Jimmy return to regular competition, it's a special night and a special opportunity for Shane Taylor to take on a man worthy of entry into a ROH Hall of Fame! ONE-ON-ONE... “Minion in Training” Billie Starkz vs. Lady Frost Billie Starkz has been under the tutelage of AEW Women's World Champion Athena for a few weeks now, and based on the video above it looks like Lexie had also been recruited into Minion training. But while Lexie graduated in record time, Athena declared that Starkz, to put it kindly, wasn't there yet. So in continuation of her training, Billie Starkz will go into action this Thursday on Honor Club and against a woman with whom Athena is quite familiar after their Proving Ground fight back in April, Lady Frost! Starkz and Frost have locked up on a couple occasions on the independent circuit, with Billie winning their last bout in February, and with Frost having lost her last three ROH bouts, she definitely needs the boost a victory of Athena's M.I.T would garner. Starkz, on the other hand, has won her last four bouts in Ring of Honor, and knows that a loss here would only serve to infuriate Athena, thereby making her Minion training that much harder, and minion graduation that much farther away. So can Billie get the approval of her trainer and graduate to full minion status, or will Lady Frost stifle that and leave Starkz at M.I.T status? ALSO FEATURING: “All Ego” Ethan Page in action! Mercedes Martinez vs. Allysin Kay The Gates of Agony vs. Iron Savages Dalton Castle & The Boys in Trios competition! Leyla Hirsch vs. Laynie Luck And more!!!! Ring of Honor is back with an all-new ROH ON HONOR CLUB (https://www.watchroh.com/home) this Thursday night at 7pm ET/6pm CT with Billie Starkz versus Lady Frost, Ethan Page in action, a huge tag team clash between Iron Savages and Gates of Agony, former World Six-Man Champions Dalton Castle and The Boys in action, and Jimmy Jacobs returning to Ring of Honor for a fight with Shane Taylor!

ROH World Six-Man Championship Match! The Mogul Embassy (c.)—Brian Cage, Bishop Kaun, & Toa Liona (with Prince Nana) vs. The Elite— “Hangman” Adam Page, & The Young Bucks—Matt & Nick Jackson! Hangman unleashed a series of strikes on Brian Cage. Hangman followed up with a shooting star press off the apron onto Kaun! Nick hit a destroyer on Brian Cage. The Elite were about to hit the BTE Trigger on Brian Cage when Swerve Strickland walked out onto the ramp and had a stare down with Adam Page. Brian Cage suplexed Nick Jackson into the ring. Bishop blasted Matt Jackson with a backstabber. “Great teamwork,” said Tony Schiavone of the Gates of Agony. Matt Jackson jumped off the turnbuckles and hit a crossbody press on the Gates of Agony outside the ring. Matt tagged Hangman and Hangman hit a moonsault on Brian Cage for a near fall! “So explosive is Hangman,” said Tony Schiavone. The Bucks flew to the outside with topes to the Gates of Agony. Brian Cage smashed Page with a waterwheel drop for a two-count! The Bucks invited the Gates to a superkick party! The Mogul Embassy wiped out the Elite with triple firemen’s carries. Toa splashed Hangman and Cage covered Hangman, but Nick was there to make the save. The Bucks blasted the Gates with superkicks. Hangman rocked the Gates with a double Buckshot Lariat! Page spiked Cage with a Dead Eye for a near fall. Swerve distracted Page on the apron. Cage tried to finish Page with the Drill Claw, but Page countered, rolled up Brian Cage and pinned him! And new ROH World Six-Man Champions…The Elite!

Last week was a tremendous one for Ring of Honor, with Claudio Castagnoli defeating Rocky Romero in their ROH World Championship bout, “All Ego” Ethan Page returning to Ring of Honor, and Shane Taylor pulling Lee Moriarty into Shane Taylor Promotions! But who could've guessed that Wednesday night's edition of DYNAMITE would shake up Ring of Honor as well as All Elite Wrestling... That's right, we have a new Ring of Honor World Champion in Eddie Kingston, and ROH could not be prouder to have him carrying the banner of honor moving forward. Kingston will undoubtedly be a fighting champion, and we look forward to what ROH will look like with Eddie at the head of the ship, but he may not be the only be the only new champion by the end of the Thursday night! This week during ROH ON HONOR CLUB, exclusively available on Honor Club, THREE ROH championships will be on the line! Shibata defends the Pure Championship against the debuting Nick Wayne, The Mogul Embassy defends the World Six-Man Titles against The Infantry and Willie Mack, and Athena welcomes Angelina Love back to ROH as she attempts to dethrone “The Fallen Goddess”. It all beings at 7pm ET/6pm CT, exclusively on Honor Club (www.watchroh.com), your home for the rich history of the most influential wrestling promotion of the 21st century, and the place where competition thrives! ROH PURE CHAMPIONSHIP MATCH... Katsuyori Shibata(c) vs. Nick Wayne The day Nick Wayne had his first professional wrestling match on record, Ring of Honor was in West Palm Beach for BOUND BY HONOR 2018: NIGHT 1, a show featuring The Briscoes defending the ROH World Tag Titles against The Motor City Machine Guns and where BULLET CLUB took on The Kingdom in Trios action. The Pure Title had been long since unified with the ROH World Title, Katsuyori Shibata was medically retired from the sport, and the idea Nick would compete for Ring of Honor seemed a far-fetched dream. Fast forward to this Thursday night, and not only is Nick Wayne making his debut for Ring of Honor, he is doing so against Shibata and for the ROH Pure Championship no less! What a way for Nick to make his debut in ROH, and what an opportunity to spread his name throughout the international wrestling community. A victory over “The Wrestler” would make headlines for young Mr. Wayne, and being the one to end the 174-day reign of Shibata would only further bolster that accomplishment. Now Shibata has already announced himself for participation at WRESTLEDREAM on October 1st in Seattle, but will he be coming there with the ROH Pure Championship around his waist, or will Nick Wayne return to the Pacific Northwest with it around his? ROH WOMEN'S WORLD CHAMPIONSHIP MATCH... “The Fallen Goddess” Athena(c) vs. Angelina Love Athena heads into this Thursday night on a roll like no other person in the history of Ring of Honor! Fourteen championship defenses, undefeated in ROH competition through 38 matches across multiple promotions, and this week she rolls into State College, PA and the campus of Penn State University to face a woman quite familiar with the landscape of the previous era of honor. Though her reign as the ROH Women of Honor Champion lasted just two weeks, her reign of terror over the competitors in ROH lasted two and a half years beginning with the G1 SUPERCARD at Madison Square Garden. As a member of The Allure, Love made live hell for a great many of the women fighting under the ROH banner, and when the ROH Women's World Championship tournament began in 2021, Angelina attempted to add that crown to her resume as well. Though ultimately defeated by eventual winner Rok-C, Love remained in the picture through FINAL BATTLE 2021: END OF AN ERA. Now, nearly two years since her last appearance inside a ROH ring, Angelina Love returns in hopes of claiming the title she never held and bolstering her resume as the one who ended the run of the self-proclaimed Forever Champion! Love has the experience and skill to pull it off, and has certainly proven over the years a willingness to fight as dirty as Athena to get what she wants, but will she get it this Thursday night on Honor Club? ROH WORLD SIX-MAN CHAMPIONSHIP MATCH... The Mogul Embassy (Bishop Kaun, Brian Cage, & Toa Liona)(c) vs. The Infantry (Carlie Bravo & Capt. Shawn Dean) and Willie Mack A Friday night date with The Elite of Hangman Page and The Young Bucks looms overhead for the winner of this bout, not merely a date but a championship fight, still all six men have to focus on the task at hand this Thursday on Honor Club, and for The Mogul Embassy that means putting down the challenge of the nascent trio of The Infantry and Willie Mack! The last thing Prince Nana wants to see happen is his men getting dethroned 24 hours before they face their biggest challenge, and their biggest winner's purse, especially against a team whose experience together doesn't compare to that of The Mogul Embassy. For 285 days and through nine successful championship defenses, Nana's champions have crushed all competition placed in front of them, and aim to do the same to Carlie Bravo, Capt. Shawn Dean, and Mack. Though the challengers enter into this fray with back-to-back victories, they are undoubtedly underdogs just hoping to catch that three second flash victory over one of The Mogul Embassy's monsters, and move onto the RAMPAGE championship bout with The Elite. It would absolutely be one of the biggest upsets in ROH history, and that is the last thing the defending champions, Prince Nana, or Swerve Strickland want to see go down! ALSO FEATURING: -Lee Johnson vs. Lee Moriarty (w/ Shane Taylor) -Cole Karter & Griff Garrison (w/ Maria Kanellis-Bennett) vs. Action Andretti & Darius Martin -Trish Adora vs. Mercedes Martinez -“All Ego” Ethan Page vs. VSK -The Renegades & Leyla Hirsch vs. Skye Blue, Willow Nightingale, & Kiera Hogan -Diamante in action! Ring of Honor is back with an all-new ROH ON HONOR CLUB this Thursday night at 7pm ET/6pm CT with three huge championship matches, the return of Angelina Love to Ring of Honor, Trish Adora fighting Mercedes Martinez, Maria's tag team in action together for the first time, and a big Women's Trios match! It all comes your way this Thursday night, exclusively on Honor Club, your home for more than twenty years of the most influential professional wrestling promotion of the 21st century!

Title vs. Title Match! ROH World Champion Claudio Castagnoli (with Wheeler Yuta) vs. NJPW STRONG Openweight Champion Eddie Kingston! Ian Riccaboni joined the broadcast booth for this match. Claudio rushed at Eddie and booted him in the face. They traded chops and forearms. The fight spilled outside of the ring! Eddie whipped Claudio into the steel guardrail. Eddie headbutted Claudio but Claudio fired back with a lariat. Back in the ring Claudio gut wrenched Eddie nearly into a doctor bomb, planting him hard on the mat. Eddie German suplexed Claudio. Eddie tried for a backfist, but Claudio countered with the crown of his head. Claudio back suplexed Eddie Kingston onto the ramp! Claudio clotheslined Eddie over the top rope and back into the ring. Claudio double stomped down onto the left arm of Claudio. Eddie moved out of the way of Claudio’s diving headbutt. Claudio battered Eddie in the corner turnbuckles. Claudio nailed Eddie with a TKO for a near fall. Claudio blasted Eddie with boots to the face. Kingston baited Claudio in and nailed Claudio with two suplexes for a two-count. Eddie fired off a straight right to Claudio’s jaw, knocking Claudio to his knees. Claudio answered with a right hand of his own. Claudio staggered Eddie with European uppercuts. Claudio headbutted Eddie and followed up with a short arm lariat. Claudio went for the ricola bomb, but Eddie reversed it for a near fall. Claudio hit the ricola bomb, but Eddie kicked out at the two-count! “This crowd coming unglued in support of their own Eddie Kingston,” said Excalibur. Eddie clocked Claudio with three back fists and followed up with a Northern Lights Bomb for a near fall on Claudio. Kingston fired off another backfist and then powerbombed Claudio for the pinfall victory! And new Ring of Honor World Champion Eddie Kingston! Claudio extended his hand and Eddie accepted. The Code of Honor was adhered to. “It’s a great moment in the long history of Dynamite,” said Tony Schiavone.

Thursday night is upon us and that means a new episode of ROH ON HONOR CLUB coming to the ROH faithful at 7pm ET/6pm CT, exclusively on Honor Club, and featuring a ROH World Championship match between Claudio Castagnoli and Rocky Romero! Plus, Ethan Page makes a return to ROH competition for the first time in nearly a decade to face Griff Garrison, The Gates of Agony are in action, as is former ROH Women's World Champion Mercedes Martinez, and Cleveland's own Shane Taylor comes home to fight “Big Shotty” Lee Johnson! All that and more is coming to you on Thursday, only on Honor Club, the home for the history of the most influential pro wrestling company of the 21st century! ROH WORLD CHAMPIONSHIP MATCH... Claudio Castagnoli(c) vs. Rocky Romero It's been a long time since Claudio and Rocky Romero have gone one-on-one, since April 17th of 2007 to be exact, specifically the FIGHTING SPIRIT event in Edison, NJ, where Rocky bested Castagnoli. Their one other singles match, taking place a month prior for PWG, saw Claudio pick up the victory, and though they would meet a couple other times on the indies, as well as their one trios match here in AEW, this is essentially the rubber match for their career with both men having experienced so much since the spring of '07. Now while Rocky always has a lot on his plate between his own wrestling career and his work with New Japan, Claudio has a particularly heavy weight to carry at the moment as AEW barrels towards GRAND SLAM 2023 where Castagnoli is set to fight Eddie Kingston with both the ROH World Championship and the NJPW STRONG Open Weight Title on the line. Rocky Romero could play spoiler to that fight though, and rob Eddie of the opportunity to take the ROH title from Claudio himself, he's certainly proven capable of beating the ROH World Champ in the past, but Double C is operating on a whole other level right now, going undefeated in ROH singles competition since FINAL BATTLE 2022 when he beat Chris Jericho to become champion. In fact, the only ROH-centric battle that Claudio has lost was when he and Wheeler Yuta challenged The Lucha Brothers for the ROH World Tag Team titles four months ago. Rocky, on the other hand, has been inconsistent in his ROH competition since the dawn of the new era, alternating between success and defeat, potential championships and standard clashes, but this is his biggest opportunity to date, as well as his first ROH World Championship opportunity since facing Cody Rhodes at ROH ELITE on 11/11/17. Can Rocky rock the boat for GRAND SLAM 2023, or will Claudio carry his crown to Arthur Ashe? SINGLES MATCH... Griff Garrison vs. “All Ego” Ethan Page ALL STAR EXTRAVAGANZA VI, 9/6/14, that was the last time Ethan Page stepped inside a ROH ring after competing on ten or so events that year, but this Thursday night he makes a return to that realm, and against another young man limited ROH competition prior to his AEW introduction, but who's been fighting to earn his spot in the new era over the last several weeks: Griff Garrison. Now if one were to go check out some late 2019 events on Honor Club, they might catch a glimpse of a very young Griff Garrison trying to earn his stripes in the tag team division alongside Marcus Kross. At ROH: THE EXPERIENCE 2019, their The Master & The Machine tag team even had the opportunity to challenge The Briscoes for the ROH World Tag Titles, a fight that obviously did not go their way, but it showed the potential they carried. Then a worldwide pandemic shut down ROH for months, and a few months after his last ROH match, Griff would make his first AEW appearance on a June 2020 episode of DARK. But a few weeks back, after rehabbing an injury for some eight months, Griff Garrison returned to the Ring of Honor landscape looking to pick up where he left off in February 2020, and establish himself as a force within these ropes. Ego, having come up during the time when ROH was heavily influencing every bit of wrestling, has always wanted the chance to plant his flag here as he's done so many other places, and now perhaps this will be the beginning of the opportunity to do just that! HOMECOMING... Shane Taylor vs. Lee Johnson Though he'd hoped to be coming home with the ROH World Television Championship once more in his possession, Shane Taylor is excited to be back in Cleveland for this Thursday night's edition of ROH ON HONOR CLUB, and for the opportunity to compete in front of the fans who've rallied behind him since day one. If nothing else, at least he can return with his head held high, knowing that he put Samoa Joe on the ropes in that fight at ALL OUT 2023, and gave the champ everything he had in that losing effort to regain the crown. So it is with the motivation to make-up for that loss that Taylor returns home to Cleveland, and it's unfortunate for Lee Johnson that he's drawn this lot for Thursday night's edition of ROH ON HONOR CLUB! Lee Johnson is fairly fresh to ROH competition, but just last week he did his level best to earn a ROH World Championship match when he met Claudio Castagnoli on the Proving Ground, but like everyone else who's tried that route, he failed. But it did give him a taste of what it means to rock with the best in Ring of Honor, and now Lee gets that once more in this meeting with one of the most dominating TV Champions in ROH's history. Can Shane T make up for his Chicago loss with the support of his hometown people, or will Big Shotty's taste last week motivate him to get back into that position? ALSO FEATURING: -Gates of Agony (Bishop Kaun & Toa Liona w/ Prince Nana) vs. Cole Radrick & Matt Brannigan -Josh Woods in action! -Lady Frost vs. Willow Nightingale -Former ROH Women's World Champion Mercedes Martinez! -And so much more!!!! ROH ON HONOR CLUB is back this Thursday night at 7pm ET/6pm CT, exclusively on Honor Club, and will include a ROH World Championship defense as Claudio Castagnoli puts his title on the line against Rocky Romero! Two-thirds of the ROH World Six-Man Champions The Gates of Agony will be in action, so will former ROH Women's World Champion Mercedes Martinez, and Cleveland's own Shane Taylor returns home for a match “Big Shotty” Lee Johnson! It's all coming your way on Honor Club, the home for over two decades of professional wrestling's most influential 21st century promotion!
