Honor Roll - Ring of Honor recap for September 25, 2025

In backstage footage from All Out, we hear from Brodido (Brody King and Bandido). Brody King says they will put everything on the line to defend the All Elite Wrestling World Tag Team Championships, and Bandido thanks everyone who has believed on them because this is their era and they are coming for everybody.

Bandido beats Dralistico in an ROH World Championship Proving Ground Match. After the match, a masked man jumps the barricade and attacks Bandido; he reveals him self to be "Vanilla Baby" Blake Christian. Bandido fights back against Blake Christian, but Lee Johnson shows up and attacks Bandido from behind. Lee Johnson then holds Bandido down so that Blake Christian can hit Bandido with the Lethal Injection, then Hologram shows up and brings Komander with him. Lee Johnson and Blake Christian retreat when Hologram and Komander slide into the ring.

Before the next match, Tony Nese reintroduces Stori Denali as his and Ariya Daivari's contingency plan, and says that if it were up to him, he would send Stori over the guardrail and have her wrestle the fans, as the city's disgusting appetite for violence is why "Smart" Mark Sterling is in a hospital bed getting surgery. Ariya Daivari then tries to get the fans to say The Premiere Athletes (Tony Nese, Ariya Daivari, Stori Denali) rule only to be told that they suck.

The Premier Athletes (Tony Nese, Ariya Daivari, Stori Denali) beat JD Ink, El Magnifico and Rebecca Scott in a six-person tag team match.

We see The Blue Meanie having fun with - and being tortured by - The Frat House (Griff Garrison, Cole Karter, Preston Vance, Jacked Jameson).

"The Virtuosa" Deonna Purrazzo beats Viva Van in a Pure Rules Match.

Mina Shirakawa retains the ROH Interim World Women's Television Championship against Lacey Lane (who is now going back to her original ring name after competing in WWE as Kayden Carter) by submission with the Figure Four Leg Lock.

La Faccion Ingobernable (Sammy Guevara and Rush) retain the ROH World Tag Team Championships against The Von Erichs (Marshall and Ross Von Erich). During the match, Sammy Guevara pulls the referee out of the ring and sistracts him; that allows Dralistico to get involved in the match.

Backstage, we hear from "The Virtuosa" Deonna Purrazzo, who says that she is the foundation and is bringing purity back to a women's division that has clearly lost its soul. She says that other women have used their attractiveness to get over, which she calls an embarrassment, then Shane Taylor Promotions (Shane Taylor, "The Captain" Shawn Dean, "Bad News and Tattoos" show up and tell Deonna that those are tough words for someone who is about to get beaten by Trish Adora. As Deonna tells them that Steve Maclin taught her to always keep her front towards the enemy in a reference to The Infantry's (Dean and Bravo) military service, Trish Adora attacks her from the side and states that the ROH Women's Pure Championship will be the next title brought to Shane Taylor Promotions.

Billie Starkz beats Olympia in a Pure Rules Match with a counter into a crucifix pin to advance in the ROH Women's Pure Championship Tournament.
