Haters in this thread talking about the height, instead of the fact that he pawged the baddest in the game:

Gresham and Grace both have played themselves via Twitter, they're perfect for each other, in that aspect. Four years ago, he was breaking out as a talented technical wrestler. Since then, he's created a career out of making an ass of himself.

After stalling in momentum, he eventually outplayed his hand in ROH. Final champ of the Sinclair era, with a transitional title reign he strove to make worth something. Many crossover opportunities, even a boost to his own promotion. His ego is in the way.

Seems less like he was fukked over, and more like he forgot how to be humble. He has aired legit gripes about the perceptions of black wrestlers recently, not doubting what he said there, but it seems like sour grapes too soon. If there's one person he won't garner much sympathy for having been beat by, and for supposedly working harder without being given proper due, it's Castagnoli.

I mean I get all that because dude seems like Tazz with a better physique, but there is no denying the fact that Jon got push all the way to the side to lose to somebody that just debuted a week or so ago.

Yes it's Cesaro, but they could had at least make some sort of build up, some sort of rhyme or reason. Instead, it just reeks of desperation because ROH comes off as a extension of AEW, instead of its own promotion.

Head on over to Impact, they’ll treat you right
He was in Impact those 2-3 weeks before Sinclair's 40 mil kite from Jacksonville came in. He was great, fans loved him, booked competently, they showed respect that he was a world champ even though his promotion's dead, even had ROH rules matches.

They only did him dirty once by having him on a screen with a knockout and he was towered lol. But every other time he looked Danielsonish and was the one that would tip the scales in Team Impact's favor. Should've never left.

So remembering that and now seeing how he's treated is very strange, just like it's strange how Jay Lethal, ROH's other top talent has been a complete afterthought since Sinclair ROH folded. I'd say it's surprising but it's not and it's been tiptoed on but there's a legit discussion that should happen. If this was WWE it would've already.

He's a couple inches away from legally being classified as a dwarf :mjlol:

I think he'd have a great career as a stunt double for middle schools kids on a TeenNick show, but someone who's 5'2" tall while standing on 3 phone books isn't someone you build an entire promotion around. Khan spent millions on a dead promotion and you want the guy who was Champ of said dying promotion to be the face of the relaunch? Hell fukking no.

With that said, I think Tony Khan needs to hold off on any more ROH pay per views until they get some sort of regular product off the ground. Build some momentum the right way and differentiate the product first before holding PPV shows. Looking at the AEW roster, guys like Moriarty, Dante Martin & his brother, Yuta, Daniel Garcia, etc. would benefit from being regulars in the new ROH.

1) You need to raise your standards pal
2) She nicknamed herself after @Scott_Steiner. That tells you all you need to know about her missing a couple crayons from the crayon box.
