>>15060135I liked him enough in ROH that I wouldn't mind seeing what he could do in NJPW. (Reminder that he challenged for the IWGP Intercontinental Championship before.) I always wished they had given him the ROH TV title when he challenged Bobby Fish for it on that PPV in late 2016. It seemed like the right time to give him a run with the title. He had won ROH's Top Prospect Tournament in 2015, but they most they did ultimately ever did with him was make him Jay Lethal's heavy.
Speaking of, does anyone else miss ROH (real ROH, not zombie ROH)? I was actually an ROH fan first and then got into NJPW through their partnership. It was cool actually having an American workrate promotion. They were much better partners for NJPW than Impact, AEW, or whatever considering they actually had a similar style.
