A surge of COVID-19 cases in Florida made holding the event at the originally planned RP Funding Center in Lakeland untenable, forcing Ring of Honor to seek an alternative location that could safely host the pay-per-view.
Death Before Dishonor XVIII took place on September 12, 2021, at the 2300 Arena in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania. Produced by Ring of Honor, it was the eighteenth installment in the Death Before Dishonor series of professional wrestling pay-per-view events.
The event marked the last time the Death Before Dishonor series used Roman numerals in its name, ending a longstanding naming convention for the ROH pay-per-view franchise and signaling a branding shift for future editions of the event.
