An AEW and Ring of Honor milestone was celebrated in style on the October 24 episode of ROH TV on Honor Club, where Athena, the ROH Women’s World Champion, unveiled a spinner redesign of her championship belt.
The segment, hosted by Lexy Nair alongside Billie Starkz, marked a significant moment in ROH history. Athena’s reign recently surpassed the 645-day mark, breaking Samoa Joe’s previous record for the longest title reign in the company’s history.
The Custom Spinner Belt
In recognition of her record-breaking reign, Lexy Nair presented Athena with a custom version of the ROH Women’s World Championship, now featuring a spinner design. After the show aired, Athena took to Twitter to share her excitement:
“Also I wanna thank Minion #1 @ACalmerPalmer and of course my #MinionBestie for my amazing custom spinner belt!!! Ain’t she beautiful!!! #ForeverROHChamp #longestreigningrohchamp”
Tensions Rise with Billie Starkz
While the celebration aimed to highlight Athena’s achievements, things didn’t go smoothly. During the segment, Athena criticized Billie Starkz, blaming her for issues with the event. Starkz became visibly frustrated, eventually storming off.
Abadon Makes a Shocking Appearance
As the segment came to an end, Abadon made a surprise appearance. Emerging from under the ring, Abadon attacked Athena, smashing a cake over her head to leave a lasting impression.
The unexpected appearance added an extra layer of drama to the already eventful celebration, hinting at future confrontations for Athena.
With her new spinner belt and ongoing tensions with Starkz and Abadon, it seems Athena’s journey in ROH is far from over. Fans will be eager to see how her storyline develops in the coming weeks.
