Ring of Honor (ROH) is an American professional wrestling promotion, founded in 2002 by Rob Feinstein and Gabe Sapolsky. From 2004 to 2011, the promotion was under the ownership of Cary Silkin before being sold to the Sinclair Broadcast Group (SBG), an American telecommunications company that operates the largest number of local television stations in the United States, in May 2011. It is currently the 4th largest pro wrestling company in the world in terms of attendance and revenue behind International Wrestling Entertainment (IWE), New Japan Pro-Wrestling (NJPW) and Total Nonstop Action Wrestling (TNA). The company is also known to be referred as the modern day XCW.
RoH currently runs shows each month throughout the country. It has also held shows in the United Kingdom, Japan, and Canada. Annual shows include the Anniversary Show, "Supercard of Honor", "Border/Global Wars" (held annually in Toronto), "Best in the World", "Death Before Dishonor", "Glory by Honor", and "Final Battle" (the last show of the calendar year). Tournaments on a semiannual basis include Survival of the Fittest and Tag Wars, while the Top Prospect Tournament is held annually since 2011 (with the exception being 2012).

Specialty matches
- Four Corner Survival match and Six Man Mayhem match
- Pure Wrestling match
- Scramble Cage Match, Scramble Cage Melee and Steel Cage Warfare
- Tag Team Scramble match
- Ultimate Endurance match
- Fight Without Honor
- This match does not require participants to adhere to the Code of Honor and usually involves no disqualifications and the use of weapons. The more violent feuds in RoH typically end up with this match.
- Field of Honor
- This round-robin style tournament took place from August 2003 – December 2003. It featured 8 wrestlers divided into two blocks, showcasing the rapidly expanding "Pure Wrestling Division". Block A featured Xavier, Matt Stryker, Chris Sabin and John Walters while Block B had BJ Whitmer, Colt Cabana, Dan Maff and Jimmy Rave.
- Round Robin Challenge
- Three wrestlers/tag teams compete with each other in a round-robin tournament. They each wrestle two different matches (making a total of three matches), with the one(s) with the most victories winning the challenge. Only Christopher Daniels has ever won a Round Robin Challenge, as all others have ended in a draw with each of the participants winning one match and losing the other. (Many sports use round-robin tournaments as a common league system, such as soccer and ice hockey. All Japan Pro Wrestling popularized the format in wrestling with its Champion Carnival.)
- Honor Rumble
- The Honor Rumble differs from the classical Battle Royal as the contestants do not enter the ring at the same time but instead are "assigned" entry numbers, usually via a lottery, although they can win guaranteed, desirable spots via a number of other scripted means, the most common being winning a match. This lottery is usually staged right before the event begins. The match begins with the two wrestlers who have drawn entry numbers one and two, with the remaining wrestlers entering the ring at regular timed intervals, either 90 seconds or two minutes, according to their entry number.
