1 - Marty Scurll (after losing at Mania weekend, he's already got another title shot. I think he deserves it. I'm interested in a rematch for sure)

2 - Punishment Martinez (taking a pin to the #1 guy in the company doesn't hurt him. I think Punishment has grown a lot, especially over the last few months. If anybody in the company is trending upwards, it's this guy)

3 - Jay Lethal (Lethal and Gresham have great matches together. Can't wait for the next one they have. Lethal has been so consistently good for the last few years, it's unreal)

4 - Cody (Cody and Taven's match was fun last night. Cody uses a lot of smoke and mirrors to help improve his matches, but I honestly don't mind. He's had some good ones lately, this and the Omega match)

5 - Matt Taven (I haven't always been a huge Taven fan, but I liked him in the Cody match. And I also thought he did well in the tv 3 way he had a couple weeks ago)

1. Marty Scurll - pinning the World Champion and earning a guaranteed title shot is one sure-fire way to land at the #1 spot.

2. Matt Taven - previous ranking and win over #1 (even in a gimmick match) lands him here.

3. Cody - fluky loss in a gimmick match. Cody is unpinned in 2018.

4. Punishment Martinez - pinned Beer City Bruiser and took a pin from Dalton Castle.

5. Jay Lethal - THE ring general in ROH. Lethal is way more than a gatekeeper though that seems to be his role at the present time.
