Ethan Page sucks and wouldn't want him back in ROH even if he made peace with Delirious. The Walking Weapon carried that fucking team.

Eddie Kingston? Why not. Great on the mic. Always will have a soft spot in my heart for his performance in DBD IV.

Neville reportedly asked for his WWE release via ProWrestlingSheet. He'd be hugely entertaining in ROH and New Japan especially.

Pac has already made brief stops in both ROH and NJPW, so it seems like a natural fit for him to come back.

Per Fightful's Sean Ross Sapp, Neville left Raw due to unhappiness over a match change. WWE wanted to talk it out but he was not in the mood. Neville has not been granted release and there are no desires to cut him.

So he'll probably be off TV and persona non-grata until his contract runs out.

Pac could be ROH's Kenny if they really were smart.

I think he'll work everything out with the E. He isn't a malcontent like Punk or Aries.

Depends how he sees his Value, right now he might see he can earn far more outside of the WWE, depending what his basic salary is. ROH and New Japan showing you can earn good wages outside of the WWE may well be starting to affect things especially for under talent that is good enough to elsewhere and making waves in wrestling.

There are quite a few dream matches that would involve him that's for sure. The whole top tier of NJPW's junior heavyweight pool are all dream worthy bouts.

Jimmy Jacobs has apparently been fired by WWE for taking a photo with the Bullet Club outside RAW a couple weeks ago.

It's petty, but is what it is.

I truly believe ROH should have jumped at Joey Mercrury/Matthews and added him behind the sceness to lend his experience. But I swear to God, ROH better bring Jacobs back and use him in whatever role or role's he sees fit. It'll be sad to see because of how his ROH farewell went but if he returned in a non-wrestling role like a match maker or a manager, I don't think that would tarnish it as much.

Jacobs as Punishment Martinez manager. And a backstage role. Maybe he can do tags here and there but seldomly.

Ya'll beat me too it, I was gonna suggest Jimmy Jacobs replace Delirious as booker or atleast help him out and bring fresh eyes to the book.

Fuck... Jimmy Jacobs got fucked for taking a picture with his friends. Ya know working in the soulless, corporate world isn't for Jimmy Jacobs. He's better off coming home.

This speaks volumes about what gutless pukes they are. TBE "Raw Invasion was harmless fun, but because the Young Bucks are a quite successful small business, the WWE had to go get corporate stupid and upset a good chunk of fans out there by taking legal action against them. Boy that is always good for PR. The only reason Jimmy got fired was because he wasn't on air talent. Vince doesn't have the balls to fire Owens or Styles if they were to show up on BTE.

Now Neville? I figured that this was going to happen sooner or later. The appeal of working for the WWE and the money is temporary at best for some guys. Guys are seeing you can have a successful career outside the WWE and be happy. Neville sounds like he's tired of the bullshit. There is a fucking mile long list of guys I would like to see him wrestle.

ROH would benefit greatly to get both. Jacobs has a really good mind for the business and Neville can still go.
