Who should ROH bring in?

Post by Sandy Fork »

Title kind off explains it all.

Any specific talent you think that ROH should bring in? I was mostly thinking from the independents but if you know of any former WWE guys you'd like to see get a run let'em rip

It was controversial last time someone brought it up but Trevor Lee. In PWG he is awesome and even outside of it his stuff is very good. Plus he'd be great with Truth Martini.

If there is any way possible they could bring in Busick and Gulak then I would say them. If I could pick anyone from Evolve it would be Uhaa and Ricochet but I'm sure they have contracts and are tied in with Dragon Gate in Japan. As far as people in PWG I would say Brian Cage but he is all the way out in the west coast. Also from the little I've seen of him I think Chris Dickinson could be quite good in ROH; But I've only seen a few matches of his

I'd back up Dickinson too. He is like a more badass Davey Richards.

Timothy Thatcher.

Ricochet. Probably the hottest commodity on the U.S. indies right now not working in ROH. Johnny Gargano is another. ROH doesn't need much right now. Maybe a few NJPW guys here and there too I really want to see more Karl Anderson and any one of Okada, Tanahashi, or Nakamura.

The roster is stacked especially in the tag team division. Only down Silas Young and Raymond Rowe at the moment and coming up on a season where Styles is going to be booked on most shows and Sydal is set to return so there doesn't need to be some huge signing spree.

Any one of Timothy Thatcher, Biff Busick, Drew Gulak or Chris Dickinson would make me very happy. Outside of the top independent regulars that get mentioned (Gargano, Fox, Taylor, Ricochet, etc) they're the only guys on the indies that properly impress me.

If they want to bring some talent for undercard matches: Trevor Lee, Zack Sabre Jr. or Chase Owens

If they want to bring names for important matches: Chris Sabin, Drew McIntyre or some NJ guys

All for Juicy Product being brought in.

And with Ricochet signing for Lucha Underground I wonder how much we will see him on the indies going forward (if the LU contracts work as reported)

Someone that's very proficient at technical mat wrestling. O'Reilly is good, but I'm thinking someone that really knows and uses a ton of holds. Ground the opponent and pick them apart limb from limb until they submit.

If we're going unrealistic:
That Paul London re-match we were promised.
That Naomichi Marufuji fly-in we were promised.
A Takeshi Morishima World Championship rematch.

Speaking of which, I really wish they would have continued the NOAH talent exchange after Border Wars 2013. Some good talent there to bring over, despite being afar cry from NOAH of old. I don't see that it would have caused a problem with NJPW, since New Japan has similar working relationships with multiple companies including NOAH.

I just ordered and watched the top 25 matches in NOAH history from ivpvideos the other day and my god that company used to be amazing. I'd still be down with a working relationship with them if both parties wanted it. They still have a lot of great talent and put on good shows every once in awhile.
