Looking Back at the First Year of Ring of Honor on Sinclair
Last week marked the fifty-second week that Ring of Honor was on Sinclair Broadcasting. Since they are in the middle of their ‘Road Rage’ broadcasts with a look at their recent iPPVs, I figured it would be a good time to look back at what the first year produced in terms of wrestling.
On the weekend of September 24, 2011, Ring of Honor had their first show on Sinclair. In the ensuing year, we have had forty-two weeks of shows from their television tapings and ten weeks with matches from their house shows or iPPV shows. It is the forty-two shows that I will be discussing.
There were thirteen shows in the last fifteen weeks of 2011 and twenty-nine shows in the thirty-seven weeks in 2012.
