Ring of Honor’s Death Before Dishonor returned to the 2300 Arena in Philadelphia on Friday, delivering some of the year’s top wrestling action. Fans packed the iconic venue to witness multiple title changes and standout performances.
Match Highlights
Bandido defended the ROH World Championship against Nick Wayne, according to event coverage, in a brutal encounter that featured German suplexes, a cutter, a poisonrana and a crucifix driver. Wayne bled after his face scraped the steel steps, but Bandido survived a Prodigy Plex and rolled Wayne up for the win, keeping the title on his shoulder.
Athena retained the ROH Women’s World Championship against Stardom’s Hazuki, as reported by the event. The two top women’s wrestlers exchanged hard-hitting moves, including a splash onto the announce table and a suplex on the entrance ramp, before Athena hit the O‑Face and pinned Hazuki for the victory, extending her reign to 1,350 days.
Action Andretti captured the ROH TV Championship by defeating Lio Rush with the assistance of Hook and Anthony Bowens, according to the event. The 450 splash through a table left Rush bloodied, securing Andretti’s first singles title in the promotion.
The ROH Six‑Man Tag Team Championship changed hands when Jay Lethal, Blake Christian and Lee Johnson defeated The Outrunners and Dalton Castle. Christian secured the pinfall with Lethal’s outside leverage, clinching the titles for his team.
