The ROH World Six-Man Tag Team Championship is a professional wrestling world tag team championship owned by the Ring of Honor (ROH) promotion. It is defended by three-man tag teams, also referred to as trios. The current champions are Dustin Rhodes and The Von Erichs (Marshall Von Erich and Ross Von Erich), who are in their first reign, both as a team and individually. They won the vacant title by defeating The Undisputed Kingdom (consisting of Roderick Strong, Matt Taven, and Mike Bennett) at All Elite Wrestling's Battle of the Belts XI on July 27, 2024. Previous champions the Bang Bang Gang (Jay White, Austin Gunn, and Colten Gunn) were stripped of the title due to White's injury.

Established in 2016, the inaugural champions were The Kingdom (Matt Taven, T. K. O'Ryan, and Vinny Marseglia). From April until July 2024, the ROH World Six-Man Tag Team Championship was held and defended together with All Elite Wrestling's World Trios Championship as the Unified World Trios Championship.

History

[edit]
Inaugural champions The Kingdom (T. K. O'Ryan, Matt Taven, and Vinny Marseglia), who also hold the record for most reigns as a team at three while Vinny has the most reigns as an individual at four (by the time of his fourth reign, his ring name had changed to Vincent)

The ROH World Six-Man Tag Team Championship was officially announced in a press release on August 30, 2016,[5] and marked the first new title created by ROH in six years following the 2010 creation of the ROH World Television Championship.[1][6][7] ROH promoted the title as the first time in nearly 25 years that a major American promotion had a six-man tag team championship.[8]

The tournament to crown the inaugural ROH World Six-Man Tag Team Champions took place between September 30 and December 2, 2016.[1] The tournament featured participants from the Mexican Consejo Mundial de Lucha Libre (CMLL) and Japanese New Japan Pro-Wrestling (NJPW) promotions, both of which ROH had partnerships with. ROH noted how six-man tag team matches were a staple of Mexican lucha libre and how NJPW had recently created its own six-man tag team championship, the NEVER Openweight 6-Man Tag Team Championship.[6] Lio Rush was originally announced for the tournament, but ended up being replaced by NJPW wrestler Kushida.[9] However, Rush eventually returned to the team, replacing ACH in the final due to his departure from ROH.[10] The tournament started on September 30 at the All Star Extravaganza VIII pay-per-view (PPV),[11] with the remaining first round and semifinal matches taking place at the October 1 and 29 tapings of the weekly Ring of Honor Wrestling program.[12][13] The final of the tournament took place at Final Battle, with The Kingdom (Matt Taven, T. K. O'Ryan, and Vinny Marseglia) crowned as the inaugural champions.[1]

At All Elite Wrestling's (AEW) Dynasty: Zero Hour on April 21, 2024, ROH World Six-Man Tag Team Champions Bullet Club Gold (Jay White, Austin Gunn, and Colten Gunn) defeated AEW World Trios Champions The Acclaimed (Anthony Bowens, Max Caster, and Billy Gunn) in a winner takes all championship unification match to unify the titles as the Unified World Trios Championship.[14][15] When Bullet Club Gold (who since became known as the Bang Bang Gang) were stripped of the Unified Trios Titles on July 10, 2024 (aired July 13), the AEW and ROH titles were separated, thus ending the unification.[16][17]

Belt designs

[edit]
The 2018–2024 design of the title.

The original design of the ROH World Six-Man Tag Team Championship, making its debut in 2016, was similar to the WCW World Six-Man Tag Team Championship, but with different wording on both the center and side plates, different coloring, and slightly different shaping of the title; similar in visual style to the original ROH World Television Championship design, from 2010 to 2012, and 2012 to 2017, respectively, although separating the belt from the other two designs, the Six-Man title plates were slightly wider, with two squares on the sides plate of the center piece.[26]

The championship belts were redesigned on New Year's day of 2018.[27] In 2024, the championship belts were once again redesigned. The new design was debuted on AEW Dynamite by then champions, Bullet Club Gold (Jay White, Austin Gunn, and Colten Gunn). The championship belt has five plates, all in silver, on a black leather strap. The main plate is circular. The top of the plate features the current Ring of Honor logo. It has two black banners on the top and bottom. The top banner says "WORLD" with two stars on the left and right of the word, and the bottem banner say "CHAMPION" with one star on the left and right. The center of the plate features a black oval globe with red letters that says "6-MAN TAG TEAM" on it. It has two side plates on each side of the main plate. The inner side plates are rectangular and feature the current ROH logo at the top with a circle and a number 6 in red inside the circle. The outer side plates are also rectangular and again feature the current ROH logo but with a circle that says "WORLD 6-MAN TAG TEAM CHAMPIONS" inside the circle. It also features three red stars on the plate.

During AEW's Dynasty: Zero Hour in April 2024, ROH World Six-Man Tag Team Champions Bullet Club Gold defeated The Acclaimed to win the AEW World Trios Championship, holding and defending both titles under the Unified World Trios Championship banner, using the standard AEW Trios belts, the ROH World Six-Man belts, and The Acclaimed's custom "scissoring" belts to represent the collective accolade. This would continue until July 2024 when Bullet Club Gold (who had since become known as the Bang Bang Gang) were stripped of the Unified World Trios Championship. This subsequently ended the unification of the AEW and ROH titles with the custom "scissoring" belts also being dropped.[28]
