After posting an response to a hot topic on the bard about the WWE and RoH, an idea came into my head. Forgive me if it's been done before (and it probably has).
Choos 5 wrestlers from the WWE that you would like to see in RoH. Maybe they're your 5 favorites, maybe its 5 people you think fit the RoH style the best, or maybe just 5 that would help RoH on why you picked them.
====================================
And now my picks (in no particular order).
1. Chris Jericho: One of my all time favorite wrestlers. He can do it all. He can mix it up on the mat, can fly a little bit, and would match up well against most of the RoH roster. Also has great charisma and mic skills. Brings an instant fan base with him and national noterity. A Punk-Jericho verbal tirade would be a must see!
2. Tajiri: thats right the "Japanese Buzzsaw" would be a welcomed addition to RoH. His stiff kicks would fit right in. Imagine Lowki and Tajiri swapping chops and kicks. A strong style lovers dream.
3. Shelton Benjamin: A great amatuer background (excellent collegiate wrestler) helps him fit right in here. He is atheletic, has charisma, and is only beginning to tap into his potential.
4. Rey Misterio: Rey would show these smaller spotter how to really fly. He could teach a lot to them. A good lucha wrestler. Also being a popular wrestler, he could also get pushed into a major title picture (something he's never had a chance to do).
5. Nick Dinsmore/Eugene: ok you may be thinking this is a reach from what you've seen from him on RAW, but trust me this guy can wresle. Watch some old OVW tapes and you'll see what I mean.
Even though I'd love to see Paul London, Eddie Guererro, and Guido/Nunzio come back to RoH, I left them off my list. They have already had a run and I'm not sure they'd make my top five anyways.
Other possibilities I think would work are: Chris Beniot, Chavo Guererro, Randy Orton, Jimmy Yang/Akio, Edge, Kenzo Suzuki, Christain, Shane Helms

| ringlord, you're joking about Suzuki, right? Otherwise I pretty much agree that many of those people might fit in ROH if they adjusted their dumbed-down styles and movesets. |

| I use to be the biggest RVD mark back in the ECW days. I would like to see him go toe to toe with guys like Homicide and Low Ki who are stiff in the ring |

(I'm not including those who have already wrestled for ROH. Eddie, London, Maritato, ect.)
1) Chris Benoit -- he's working his way toward being an in-ring legend, and he's still the most technically sound wrestler in WWE. Benoit vs. Danialson would be a dream match.
2) Shane Helms -- Not Hurricane, but Shane Helms, he has a great high-flying style but also throws some wrestling in there.
3) Kurt Angle -- Quite honestly, he could be very entertaining both in and out of the ring. He can hold his own in the ring plus think of him and Cobana cutting a promo together
4) Nick Dinsmore -- like said above, he's had some good matches in OVW. Overall solid style
5) William Regal -- A battle of the Euro style between Nigel and Regal could prove a huge boost for Nigel. Plus he displays better ring psychology than most in the ring.
close misses: Chris Jericho, Chavo Guerrero, Shelton Benjamen or Chalie Haas |

| how could I forget RVD on my list...and the only reason I put Kenzo on the maybe list is because of his Japanese background. I seen some matches of his in MLW and they were a little rough, but he could work in ROH...a long shot. |

He only had one match in MLW. It was in June 2003 at Hybrid Hell, against Norman Smiley (who was managed by a debuting GI Ho). Kenzo Suzuki's mission was the stop the wiggle, which he successfully completed, and then returned to Japan. The match was good, I'd hardly call it "a little rough". |

Let's get one thing straight: it WASN'T .. HIS .. FAAAUULT!!!
..
1. Chris Benoit (vs Danielson/Joe/Aries/Corino - any of these matches could easily reach ****+)
2. Paul London (vs Aries - if London could carry Styles to such a great match - imagine what he could do with Aries)
3. William Regal (vs Danielson - their MCW match was great, but short. I can't imagine how could they could do given 15-20 minutes ... vs McGuiness/Williams .. obviously could be very good)
4. Eddie Guerrero (see #1 .. I'd also love to see Eddie go at it with Romero)
5. Ric Flair (a Flair/Punk or Flair/Corino match would be gold, whether you like Flair or not)
