The 2025 Supercard of Honor is an upcoming professional wrestling live streaming event produced by Ring of Honor (ROH). It will be the 18th Supercard of Honor and will take place on Friday, July 11, 2025, at Esports Stadium Arlington in Arlington, Texas. The event will air exclusively on ROH's streaming service, Honor Club. The event will also feature wrestlers from ROH's sister promotion, All Elite Wrestling (AEW), as part of All In weekend, scheduled for the following day.
Production
Background
Supercard of Honor is a pay-per-view professional wrestling event annually presented by Ring of Honor (ROH), and primarily takes place during the weekend of WrestleMania - the flagship event of WWE, and considered to be the biggest wrestling event of the year. It has been a yearly tradition since 2006. The shows are sometimes two-day events, traditionally taking place on Friday nights and/or Saturday afternoons, and are held either in or nearby the same city as that year's WrestleMania.
In March 2025, it was announced that Supercard of Honor would take place on May 2 on the Adrian Phillips Theater at Boardwalk Hall in Atlantic City, New Jersey, which means that for the first time since 2011, Supercard of Honor will not take place during the weekend of WrestleMania.[1] On April 22, 2025, the event was rescheduled for July 11 at Esports Stadium Arlington in Arlington, Texas, during the week of ROH's sister promotion, All Elite Wrestling's All In event, AEW's biggest event of the year.[2][3]
Storylines
The event will feature professional wrestling matches that involved different wrestlers from pre-existing scripted feuds and storylines. Wrestlers portrayed villains, heroes, or less distinguishable characters in scripted events that build tension and culminate in a wrestling match or series of matches. Storylines were produced on ROH's weekly series ROH Honor Club TV exclusively on their streaming service Honor Club, on television programs of sister promotion All Elite Wrestling including Dynamite and Collision.
Athena has been feuding with Thunder Rosa weekly leading up to the pay-per-view, as on the June 6 episode of ROH, Rosa came to the aid of Rachel Armstrong as Athena carried on the attack after defeating Armstrong in a match. Afterwards, Rosa held up Athena's ROH Women's World Championship, indicating that she is after the title. [4] The following week, Athena cut a promo backstage where she disregarded Rosa as "irrelevant".[5][6] Both women would face off in a tag team match at Global Wars Mexico, with ROH Women's World Television Champion Red Velvet being in Athena's corner, while Persephone was in Rosa's corner. Rosa and Persephone were successful, with ROH later announcing that Rosa would challenge Athena for the ROH Women's World Championship at Supercard of Honor.[7][8]
At Global Wars Mexico, Blue Panther defeated Lee Moriarty, automatically putting him in contention for Lee's ROH Pure Championship.[7] Afterwards, a rematch between the two was announced for Supercard of Honor (But this time for the title.).[8]
Konosuke Takeshita put a challenge out for Bandido's ROH World Championship during a backstage segment at Global Wars Mexico, where it was later announced that a title match between the two was scheduled for Supercard of Honor.[8][9]
On the July 3 episode of ROH, The Infantry (Capt. Shawn Dean and Carlie Bravo) defeated Top Flight (Dante Martin and Darius Martin) in a number one contender's match to face The Sons of Texas (Dustin Rhodes and Sammy Guevara) for the ROH World Tag Team Championship at Supercard of HOnor.[10] Afterwards on July 4, 2025 the match for the title was officially announced.[11]
On June 18, 2025 at Global Wars Mexico Nick Wayne faced Titán for the ROH World Television Championship, but the match ended in a time limit draw.[12] On July 7, 2025 it was announced that the two would have a rematch for the title at Supercard of Honor.[13]
Cancelled match
On April 12, after a taping of AEW Collision, Tony Khan introduced the ROH Women's Pure Championship to the ROH women's division. The inaugural champion will be crowned via a sixteen-woman single-elimination tournament. It was originally announced that the finals would happen at Supercard of Honor, but due to timing issues, the inaugural title match would be postponed to a later date.[14]
