One of the biggest nights in pro wrestling will take place on Friday in Philadelphia.

Ring of Honor (ROH) will hold Death Before Dishonor at the 2300 Arena – the home of the influential promotion known as Extreme Championship Wrestling. Death Before Dishonor is known as one of the premier events on the Ring of Honor schedule and the match card that is set for the event underscores that notion.

There are several matches set to take place with a championship on the line. And because All Elite Wrestling (AEW) CEO Tony Khan owns Ring of Honor, a few wrestlers who have routinely appeared on AEW programming will also be featured on the card.

Pro wrestling fans can watch the main Death Before Dishonor card on ROH TV beginning at 8 p.m. ET.

Read below for the list of matches and predictions.

Mina Shirakawa and Queen Aminata vs. Vita Van and Vertvixen

It’s a Zero Hour pre-show match to start Death Before Dishonor. Mina Shirakawa and Queen Aminata will take on Vita Van and Vertvixen. Shirakawa and Aminata have been on a roll as a tag team, winning five matches together going back to Supercard of Honor earlier this year. But the new pairing of Vita Van and VertVixen will try to stop that streak dead in its tracks.

Prediction: It’s Shirakawa and Aminata for the win.

Red Velvet (c) vs. Skye Blue vs. Marina Shafir vs. Zayda Steel for the ROH Women’s Television Championship

A night before ROH’s Death Before Dishonor, this fatal four-way match was added to the card. Red Velvet will defend the ROH Women’s Television Championship against three of her toughest opponents yet – Skye Blue, Marina Shafir and Zayda Steel. Velvet does not have to get pinned to lose her title, which she’s held for about 259 days in her second reign. She’s the only ROH wrestler who has held this title twice, but every challenger in this match is eyeing gold.

Prediction: It is Zayda Steel’s time. Steel wins this one.

Místico and Máscara Dorada (c) vs. Matthew Taven and Michael Bennett vs. Sammy Guevara and The Beast Mortos vs. Dante Martin and Darius Martin for the ROH Tag Team Championship

How about some high-flying men’s tag team action? Místico and Máscara Dorada (El Sky Team) put the ROH Tag Team Championship on the line against three teams – The Kingdom (Taven and Bennett), La Facción Ingobernable (Guevara and Mortos) and Top Flight (Martins). Any time any of these guys are in a match, it will be must-see. This is not going to be any different on Friday night.

Prediction: El Sky Team retains.

==

Turbo Floyd, Truth Magnum and Dalton Castle (c) vs. Jay Lethal, Blake Christian and Lee Johnson for the ROH World Six-Man Tag Team Championship

Turbo Floyd, Truth Magnum (The Outrunners) and Dalton Castle may have been an unusual trio but their success has been undeniable. The group won the Six-Man Tag Team Championship over Shane Taylor Promotions at Supercard of Honor in May, answering the group’s call, and haven’t looked back. Since Christian and Johnson asked Lethal to be a part of the group, Lethal Twist has been on a tear. They have a real shot at dethroning the champs on Friday.

Prediction: The Outrunners and Castle retain the six-man titles.

==

Lio Rush (c) vs. Action Andretti for the ROH Television Championship in a Fight Without Honor match

It’s fine! Lio Rush’s character change has been one of the more fascinating developments across pro wrestling over the last few months. It has led him to a reign as the ROH television champion. But a former friend, Action Andretti, is looking to take the belt from Rush’s cold hands. Rush may appear to be out of his mind, but he’s been rolling. Andretti knows Rush better than anyone but it doesn’t necessarily mean he has the advantage going into this match.

Prediction: Lio Rush retains the ROH Television Championship.

==

Deonna Purrazzo (c) vs. Steph De Lander for the ROH Pure Women’s Championship

Deonna Purrazzo has been out of action for some time, but by no means has she had any plans of dropping the Pure Women’s Championship. Purrazzo has been the first and only ROH pure women’s champion since the championship was created in 2025. Purrazzo got injured in an ROH TV taping against Steph De Lander in June. Now, it all comes full circle with De Lander looking to take the belt off Purrazzo.

The match will be contested under Pure Rules. Each wrestler will have three rope breaks, no closed-fist punches as a warning is issued on the first one and the second is a DQ, the title can change hands via count out or DQ, outside interference will lead to a firing and if the match reaches a time limit, a panel of three judges will decide the winner.

Prediction: Deonna Purrazzo retains the Pure Women’s Championship.

==

Lee Moriarty (c) vs. Katsuyori Shibata for the ROH Pure Championship.

Lee Moriarty was set to take on Nigel McGuinness for the ROH Pure Championship under Pure Rules. But McGuinness dropped out due to an injury. McGuinness' stipulation was that, if he lost, he woul no longer be able to wrestle in Ring of Honor. But that's not the case anymore as Katsuyori Shibata defeated Wheeler Yuta earned a shot at Moriarty's title on Thursday night.Moriarty has been on a hot streak defending the Pure Championship. He’s held the belt for over 755 days and has elevated his standing on the roster as one of the best in the game. But a great like Shibata might give him hell in the ring.

Prediction: Lee Moriarty retains the ROH Pure Championship

==

Athena (c) vs. Hazuki for the ROH Women’s World Championship

The "Forever Champ" is a nickname Athena has taken to heart. Every challenger who has stepped up to her for the ROH Women’s World Championship has been knocked down and it hasn’t mattered what kind of match she’s in or if she’s defending the belt on ROH TV or AEW. Athena’s reign has been dominant but Hazuki isn’t a wrestler to overlook. Hazuki is the Spark Joshi world champion at Stardom and has been in the ring with some of the best AEW has to offer. She gets a shot at bringing the belt back to Japan if she can take out Athena.

Prediction: Athena’s reign continues as she beats Hazuki.

==

Bandido (c) vs. Nick Wayne for the ROH World Championship

Bandido has done a tremendous job at elevating the prestige of the ROH World Championship, defending the belt at several promotions and putting himself through grueling matches to get the job done. But he hasn’t faced anyone like Nick Wayne before. Wayne has said Ring of Honor "needs the prodigy." He may not have "honor" but Wayne has the talent and the skills to pull off the win in Philadelphia. It might be a major night for Wayne and his family.

Prediction: Nick Wayne wins the ROH World Championship in an upset.
