Yahoo Sport Ring of Honor Champions: A complete list of every title holder in ROH
Ring of Honor, which was founded in 2002, underwent a huge change last year when it was purchased by AEW boss Tony Khan.
Followings Khan's purchase of ROH, it produced a year's worth of pay-per-views in 2022 culminating in December's Final Battle, without producing weekly television.
Without weekly TV, Ring of Honor championships were defended on AEW programming, using a mix of ROH and AEW talent.
However, in December 2022, Khan announced Ring of Honor would begin airing weekly shows from February 2023, on its streaming service Honor Club.
Ring of Honor currently has six championships. Below, Digital Spy rounds up every single title-holder in ROH right now, and tells you where and when the championship was won – and from who.
