Very happy to hear that Lio Rush has signed with ROH! He's got a ton of potential for a guy who's only been wrestling for a year or so.

Would love to see a feud with Silas Young vs Lio Rush, i think it could help him to stablish himself in the company.

And Lio Rush is 4 times as good as Moose, what does this tell us about Moose the wrestler?

That he's more over than both members of ANX combined?

It's about the pop, not your mat skills. Andre? Hogan? Luger? Sandman? Dreamer? Goldberg? Foley? Dean Malenko was better wrestlingwise than all of them combined, but never got near any of their heights. Lio is the flavor of the month. Does he have the staying power? Maybe, if he can keep from getting injured which the flippy style is more vulnerable than most (Andrew Everret, anyone?) He might be the next Ricochet, or he might be the next John Walters (seriously, he was a 'blue chipper' everyone thought would be the next big thing.

That's the problem: Do we really need an Andre, Hoga, Sandman or Luger in a company that prides itself on presenting the best wrestling? I don't think so, in my opinion he should be put into the low undercard or released all together, he doesn't bring anything to the table wrestling wise and that's the point where I stop caring about him or his character.

Also, it's not like Moose is super charismatic or anything.

I'm struggling to see in what way Sandman had a better run than Dean Malenko.

ECW fans would argue Sandman drew more money than Malenko.

John Walter was supposed to be "the next big thing"? where the fuck did that come from? Ive seen more Walters matches than anyone when he was hot on the New England indy scene back in the day but i dont remember hardly any ROH fans falling in love with the guy.

Dude doesn't really say much, doesn't really bump. I can see why he's in demand as a manager.

Also, I don't get the love y'all have for Lio Rush. What does he bring that ACH doesn't do better?
