Ring of Honor (ROH) is an American independent promotion. It was created in 2002 by Rob Feinstein, and is currently owned by Cary Silkin. ROH usually holds several shows each month, sometimes as many as six. Annual shows include the Anniversary Show(s), Death Before Dishonor, Survival of the Fittest, Glory by Honor, and Final Battle (the last show of the calendar year).
ROH records all their shows and sells them on DVD through their mail and online store. As such, Ring of Honor has developed a loyal fan base in the Northeast (where the shows are run) as well as around the country. Ring of Honor also broadcasts on The Fight Network to viewers in Canada and on TWC Fight! to viewers in Great Britain and Ireland.
ROH is considered by many to be the most well known independent promotion in the world.
