Ring of Honor Final Battle 2023 — match card, date, start time and how to watch
Ring of Honor presents its final big show of the year, the aptly named Final Battle, on Friday, December 15 from the Curtis Culwell Center in Garland, Texas.
The event will feature five matches with two titles on the line, including the vacant ROH Television Championship.
AEW owner Tony Khan announced his purchase of Ring of Honor back in February 2022, and 2023 has been his first full year as the company's owner.

Initially it was thought by fans that ROH would secure a television deal, but it was eventually announced that weekly Ring of Honor television would begin airing on the revamped Honor Club starting in March 2023.
While ROH has found a fanbase, there has been some teething problems and often the cards for Ring of Honor's pay-per-views have felt a little undeveloped.
This is most definitely the case with this year's Final Battle. For the first time in 16 years, the ROH World Championship won't be defended on the show as champ Eddie Kingston has put it on the line in the Continental Classic tournament.
The ROH Tag Team Championship isn't being defended either, as the belts are held by AEW World Champion MJF and the injured Adam Cole.

On the bright side, the Ring of Honor Women's Championship may be able to finally take centre-stage as long-reigning champion Athena takes on Billie Starkz.
We'll also see Bryan Danielson, Jon Moxley and Claudio Castagnoli take on Mark Briscoe and FTR in a Fight Without Honor match in memory of Jay Briscoe.
