Caprice Coleman Was among the First People Tony Khan Called Back after ROH Hiatus

Speaking recently with The Best Damn Wrestling Podcast, ROH announcer Caprice Coleman shared some details about the events in early 2022 after ROH went on hiatus and was eventually acquired by Tony Khan (via Fightful). Coleman explained that he found out about the new boss while watching AEW Dynamite in April of that year, and that he was one of the first people Khan called back to work when Ring of Honor got up and running again. You can find a few highlights on the topic from Coleman and watch the full episode below.

On the sudden changes to ROH in April 2022: “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.”

On resuming work for ROH under Khan: “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.”
