Ian Riccaboni has re-signed with Ring of Honor
Fightful Select first reported Riccaboni’s re-signing, which then was later on confirmed on Twitter by Riccaboni himself.
He wrote the following on Twitter:
“[Ring of Honor] and I quietly extended our agreement during the early stages of the pandemic.
With the timing of the pandemic and overall great loss we collectively experienced due to COVID-19, it was a conscious decision not to celebrate this publicly at the time the agreement was reached although I and extraordinarily thankful.
ROH has always accommodated my work/family balance and my other commitments and provides generous compensation.
The agreement puts me on pace to call more ROH TV episodes and ROH events than any previous announcer and I am humbled by this. I appreciate everyone who has supported ROH and look forward to calling The Best Wrestling on the Planet for a long, long time.”
Riccaboni began with Ring of Honor in 2015. In 2017, he became the company’s new lead broadcaster, replacing Kevin Kelly, after Kelly left to become the new English play by play commentator for New Japan Pro Wrestling.
Hey! This has been up for a few hours so it's probably OK to scoop @SeanRossSapp's scoop. Here are some thoughts about my @ringofhonor extension (which is now a few months old!). https://t.co/ADnZcExObz pic.twitter.com/Znwk51mV3e
