The ROH Hall of Fame (HOF) is a hall of fame that honors professional wrestlers and wrestling personalities who contributed to the history of the U.S. based wrestling promotion Ring of Honor (ROH).[2]

History

[edit]

ROH established its hall of fame on January 26, 2022, as part of the celebration of the promotion's 20th anniversary.[3] They announced that four inductees will make up the inaugural class. The ceremony was presented March 5, 2022, on ROH TV.

The future of the ROH Hall of Fame is unclear, as Ring of Honor was purchased by All Elite Wrestling founder and CEO Tony Khan, with the sale being officially completed on May 4, 2022.[4] Though an altered Ring of Honor brand would continue under the AEW umbrella, there has been no mention by AEW on the future of the ROH Hall of Fame.
