During a recent edition of What Happened When, QT Marshall spoke about his Fight Without Honor against award-winning actor Paul Walter Hauser that took place at ROH Death Before Dishonor. Marshall revealed that Tony Khan had approved of the celebrity matchup taking place at an AEW show. However, Hauser insisted that the event take place at an ROH show, wanting it to happen at the old ECW Arena (now the 2300 Arena).

Marshall explained (via WrestlingInc.com), “Tony Khan approved us wrestling at an AEW event. [Hauser] said, ‘I don’t want to be at an AEW event for this particular match. I want it to be Ring of Honor, I want it to be ECW Arena.'”

Meanwhile, Marshall pitched the matchup for AEW All In Texas last July in Dallas. He continued, “I pitched All In, in Texas. I believe in trying to protect myself as much as I can.”

Ultimately, the match took place the following month at ROH Death Before Dishonor 2025 in Philadelphia. QT Marshall picked up the victory over Paul Walter Hauser in the Fight Without Honor matchup.
