Caprice Coleman is grateful that Ring Of Honor still exists.
Coleman and Ian Riccaboni currently serve at the commentary desk for weekly episodes of Ring Of Honor television. The two have worked together for a number of years now, even dating back to the days when Ring Of Honor wasn't owned by Tony Khan.
Before Khan purchased the company in the spring of 2022, many fans and performers were nervous about the future of Ring Of Honor, especially following the promotion's hiatus in December 2021.
In a new interview with The Best Damn Wrestling Podcast, Coleman noted that he found out Khan was his new boss by watching a episode of AEW Dynamite.
“Ring Of Honor went out of business, everyone’s contracts were running out or whatever and we did Final Battle, and we were told it would pick back up in April, it was like we were taking a hiatus. At the end of April, we turn on the TV, my new boss is Tony Khan. We didn’t know it, we were watching the TV and we found out then."
Coleman then went on to state that he originally didn't know what Khan was going to do with the company, but is happy that he's now trying to do something with it.
"We didn’t know if he was going to use Ring Of Honor for the video archive or if he was just going to take a couple of guys and be done with it, but by the grace of god he took it and he’s really trying to do something with it. I was part of the first ten people to be called back, I work for Ring Of Honor under AEW now and I just keep in touch with people and I just try to show love. I’ve been on all aspects of wrestling from refereeing to wrestling to producing to talk show host to commentary, that’s where I’m at now. I’m like the Swiss Army knife of pro wrestling, Mr. Versatility. In my career, I’ve always said yes to opportunities and it’s blessed me to where I’ve been able to do a lot of things in the same sport.”
In a separate interview that was recorded in 2022, Coleman stated that Ian Riccaboni pushed for him to be on the call for the Supercard Of Honor pay-per-view. Fans can learn more here.
