Ring of Honor WrestleMania Weekend 2026

ROH Supercard of Honor 2026

Ring of Honor's biggest event of the year takes place during WrestleMania weekend — the greatest gathering of professional wrestling fans on the planet. Supercard of Honor 2026 brings the ROH World Championship, Pure Championship, and the full ROH roster to centre stage when wrestling fans from around the world converge.

Supercard of Honor — Event Overview

TRADITION

WrestleMania Weekend Fixture

Supercard of Honor has been a WrestleMania weekend staple for ROH since the mid-2000s. When wrestling fans book their flights and hotels for WrestleMania, they plan around Supercard of Honor as well. The event sells out quickly and delivers a passionate, knowledgeable audience unlike any other wrestling show of the year.

CHAMPIONSHIPS

ROH World & Pure Title

The ROH World Heavyweight Championship is the centrepiece of Supercard of Honor. The Pure Championship — defended under specific pure wrestling rules restricting closed fists and rope breaks — provides a technical counterpoint that ROH fans particularly cherish. Both belts carry decades of prestige into 2026.

AUDIENCE

The Hardest Crowd to Please

WrestleMania weekend crowds are legendary — they've attended Takeovers, ROH shows, PWG events, independent cards, and multiple WWE shows in four days. These are the most informed wrestling fans in the world. A great performance at Supercard of Honor earns immediate respect. A poor one gets merciless feedback.

Ring of Honor's Supercard of Honor Legacy

Ring of Honor launched Supercard of Honor as part of its WrestleMania weekend presence back when the company was the premier American independent promotion. The event became a rite of passage for ROH performers — to headline Supercard of Honor meant you were at the top of ROH's world. Alumni who have headlined past Supercard events include CM Punk, Bryan Danielson, Samoa Joe, Kevin Owens, Sami Zayn, and Seth Rollins — names who went on to define WWE's modern era.

Under Tony Khan's AEW ownership, ROH has received additional resources and production investment while maintaining the company's tradition of pure wrestling excellence. Supercard of Honor under this era has elevated further, drawing larger crowds and delivering shows that stream to a global audience via HonorClub.

The 2026 edition arrives with ROH World Championship prestige restored and the Pure Championship division providing some of the best technical wrestling produced anywhere in the world. Supercard of Honor is ROH's statement to the wrestling world: we are still here, and we are still delivering.

The Wrestling Fan Pilgrimage

WrestleMania weekend draws tens of thousands of wrestling fans to the host city. The schedule is packed — Fan Axxess, NXT Stand & Deliver, WrestleMania itself, and multiple independent shows including ROH Supercard of Honor. For many hardcore fans, Supercard is the event they are most excited for across the entire weekend.

Talent & Surprise Appearances

WrestleMania weekend ROH shows are famous for surprise appearances. Veterans making one-night returns, international talent crossing over from Japan or Mexico, and rising stars getting their WrestleMania weekend spotlight moment. The atmosphere makes Supercard of Honor uniquely electric and full of unpredictable moments.

The ROH Pure Championship

Pure Rules Explained

The Pure Championship is defended under Pure Rules: each competitor has three rope breaks to escape holds or pinfalls, closed-fist strikes to the head are penalised, and any deliberate use of the ropes for leverage or interference results in disqualification. The strict rule set demands technical wrestling at the highest level.

The Best Technical Wrestling

Pure Championship matches at Supercard of Honor are consistently among the most critically acclaimed bouts of WrestleMania weekend. The format forces wrestlers to think strategically — when to use rope breaks, when to absorb a submission attempt, and when to strike for the winning pinfall. It is chess played in a wrestling ring.

Why Supercard of Honor is ROH at its Best

Whether you are a lifelong ROH fan who remembers the Hammerstein Ballroom era or a new viewer discovering Ring of Honor through HonorClub, Supercard of Honor 2026 is the entry point that shows what ROH does better than almost anyone — pure, technical, respectful professional wrestling delivered at the highest level.
