ROH World Tag Team Championship
The ROH World Tag Team Championship is a men's professional wrestling world tag team championship created and promoted by the American promotion Ring of Honor. Establish on September 21, 2002, it is the company's traditional tag team title, contested between teams of two wrestlers, and the inaugural champions were The Prophecy. In addition to being in ROH, the championship is also occasionally defended on All Elite Wrestling's programs, as AEW and ROH are both owned by Tony Khan.

They won the vacant title by defeating "Dynamite Kid" Tommy Billington and Adam Priest at Final Battle on December 5, 2025; the previous championship team of Guevara and Rush vacated the title due to Rush suffering a knee injury.
