ROH World Six-Man Tag Team Championship

The ROH World Six-Man Tag Team Championship is a professional wrestling championship owned by the Ring of Honor (ROH) promotion. It is defended by three-man tag teams, which are also referred to as trios. The titles are currently vacant.

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

The tournament to crown the inaugural ROH World Six-Man Tag Team Champions took place between September 30 and December 2, 2016. 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. Lio Rush was originally announced for the tournament, but ended up being replaced by NJPW wrestler Kushida. However, Rush eventually returned to the team, replacing ACH in the final due to his departure from ROH. The tournament started on September 30 at the All Star Extravaganza VIII pay-per-view (PPV), 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. 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.

At 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.

Belt designs


The original design of the ROH World Six-Man Tag Team Championship, making its debut in 2016, is similar to the WCW World Six-Man Tag Team Championships 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 are slightly wider, with two squares on the sides plate of the center piece.
