Had a wonderful time calling the Ring of Honor/National Wrestling Alliance Crockett Cup! Thank you to Dave Lagana and Billy Corgan for the opportunity and to ROH for letting me call this event with Jim Cornette and Joe Galli! Both were wonderful partners and I had a blast!
Thank you everyone that joined Kevin Kelly, Colt Cabana, Caprice Coleman, Nick Aldis, Chris Charlton, and Mandy Leon as we presented last night’s ROH/NJPW G1 Supercard!
I have so many thoughts but right now I’m extremely thankful to have called this history making event at Madison Square Garden!
Bill Apter has been one of the premier voices of professional wrestling since the early 1970s. He has covered everyone from Bruno Sammartino to the present and I grew up reading any and every magazine Apter was involved with.
So it was a great thrill on Saturday night to be recognized by “Wonderful Willie” and his Apter Chat podcast co-host Josh Shernoff as the Commentary Team of the Year with Colt Cabana!
Thank you Bill and Josh for your recognition!
It was a tremendous thrill to join Hall of Famer Jim Ross on The Jim Ross Report to discuss Ring of Honor’s Final Battle, coming up Friday December 14 on HonorClub.
JR, and guys like Tony Schiavone and Vince McMahon, inspired me to become a wrestling broadcaster and it was pretty neat to talk wrestling with one of the greatest of all time!

A sincere thank you to everyone that watched All In this past weekend. It was an amazing experience to call and I had wonderful partners in Don Callis and Excalibur! Thank you to the amazing James Musselwhite for the tremendous photo above.
I posted some contemporaneous thoughts on this Twitter thread:

Time to decompress and get ready for Vegas!
It was truly a thrill to be able to throw out a First Pitch at the Lehigh Valley IronPigs! What a night indeed!
I have always loved Allentown and always loved baseball. I was a batboy for the Allentown Ambassadors, the first professional baseball team in Allentown after a 40 year absence and he ‘Pigs are a model organization that give so back for the community. This was incredibly special and a moment I will never forget!
It was especially cool to share it with Zach, who adores FeFe the IronPig!
Check out this chat I had with The Court of Nerds podcast, which includes the story of when I got the call to take the lead broadcasting chair for ROH, Honor for All, All In, and what ROH/NJPW @ MSG means to me!
I joined SportsRadio 610 AM in Houston for the Heel Turn podcast and discussed this Friday’s Ring of Honor Best in the World Pay Per View! Watch on ROHHonorClub.com, the Fite.TV, or Pay Per View!
New @TheHeelTurnPod was just loaded to our website, featuring a conversation with @ringofhonor announcer @IanRiccaboni before their big PPV this Friday, "Best in the World." Fun stuff including his love for Whataburger and Buc-ee's.https://t.co/Caz5bm9Myh

Thank you to the great staff, families and kids at Sunrise Children’s Hospital in Las Vegas for allowing us to spend a few hours with you before our 16th Anniversary live Pay Per View! It is my favorite part of my role as lead announcer for ROH.
