ROH World Champions in the last 5 years
Jay Lethal - Based. One of the most complete talents of this generation. He can do it all and does it all at a high level.
Matt Taven - Sheeeeeeeeeesh. Fine tag team piece/midcarder but shouldn't even be sniffing the main event let alone world champ
Rush - Good look and in ring work but he cant promo in English and didn't have a manager. This makes it very hard to make your champ the featured guy on the show driving the main stories.
PCO - Fine for what it was. He's over and this was one of RoH's lifetime achievement champions, and he dropped the title quickly because just winning it was the story.
Rush - already covered this
Bandido - Lets take all of the negative qualities Rush has as your champ, and put a mask on it, which is the one thing you could do to make it even worse. You cant be the face of an American company if you no speaka english and dont even show your face.
Jonathon Gresham - RoH dead. Dimeless. Midget. Nail in the coffin.
