ROH Anniversary Show

The ROH Anniversary Show is a professional wrestling event, held annually by the Ring of Honor promotion. The event celebrates the anniversary of the promotion's inaugural show The Era of Honor Begins, which was held on February 23, 2002.[1] To coincide with this, the Anniversary Show is normally held in February, though it occasionally falls into March.

Although most years have seen a one-night celebration, the third year saw three events take place over two weekends. The fifth year went further and had five events in ROH's most popular venues, leading up to a sixth and final show in Liverpool, England across three weekends. In recent years, the Anniversary Show has become a two-night event, with a PPV broadcast followed the next day with TV tapings of the flagship Ring of Honor Wrestling program.[2][3] All previous events were recorded and sold later on DVD.

gollark: I think it's more of a problem of our political/economic systems being oriented towards "we need jobs/working hours regardless of actual productivity".
gollark: SPECIALIZATION REALLY VERY GOOD!
gollark: ANPRIM BAD!
gollark: I suppose you could phrase it as "lack of goods and services™ restricts happy™", too.
gollark: Money allows you to obtain goods and services™. Goods and services™ allow more happy™.
