Summary

Ian Riccaboni has had some great broadcast partners during his 10 years with Ring Of Honor including Colt Cobana, Nigel McGuinness, and Caprice Coleman. He shares what he learned from Colt, what he enjoys most about working with Nigel, and how he and Caprice prepare for every ROH match they call. Ian gives a play-by-play account of his involvement in the 2018 All In show, his first introduction to Excalibur, and why he didn’t initially join AEW when it launched not long after. He talks about ROH’s historic show at Madison Square Garden, some of his favorite road trips with Jay Lethal, the Briscoes, and Chuck Taylor, his friendship with former ROH owner Cary Silkin, and how he convinced then ROH booker, Delirious, to give him a shot on the mic. Plus, Ian reveals when his love of wrestling started, how his short-lived music career influenced his broadcast style, and what inspired those incredible raps over Willow Nightingale’s entrance!
