We all know Tna has no shame in picking up former wwe stars and putting them in a major role, but we really havent seen ROH do much of that this year, especially after losing a crop of well known contracted TNA wrestlers. The question is "can" Roh afford these bigger name stars, and Should they bring in some more former talent. Rumors of Masters and Eugene coming in are only speculation, but should ROH make a run for these guys? Maybe even Cryme Tyme for a few matches? Im a little surprised they haven't brought in a few of these guys for a one time thing. Chris Masters would fit in perfectly with Sweet n Sour Inc. for a short term deal in my opinion, although perhaps the benefits arent worth the positives.

Roh has been using former wwe talent, although no one that has been sucessful on the main level. Brent Albright was big in OVW, and made a nice debut, but was quickly exited, with no good reason. Tank Toland is another ex-wwe guy, who plays his role perfectly in Sweet n Sour Inc. Do you like the influx of former wwe guys, or should ROH remain what took them to the dance, and make new stars.

it just depends on who it is, just because someone gets fired by WWE doesn't mean there worthless but Eugene hell no how about sonny siaki and i dont think Cryme Tyme would fit in good

ROH can definately bring former WWE/TNA stars for a short term basis and see how it goes..whether they can afford them for a longer time basis is a question..but yeah,it will help them get better TV ratings as well..

I think if the wrestlers actually had talent, ROH should accept them. However, ROH should never hire talentless wrestlers, and that includes Chris Masters.

they could do some one shots for guys like RVD, Booker and some other guys. The younger guys could make a name in ROH on a full time basis like Brent Albright, it all depends on how Gabe wants to book them.

ROH fans are much different from TNA fans. TNA fans are trying so hard to beleive that TNA is going to overtake the WWE that they will accept and love anything that comes over from WWE.

ROH fans would probably boo most of the guys who came over with the exceptions of Mysterio, HBK, London, etc. Hell they would probably boo the hell out of HHH if he went to ROH. ROH fans like their style of wrestling and their home grown stars.

WOW, the first ever Santino Marella Sig. Interesting.

Also, If the ROH crowds were to boo former WWE's wrestlers, that isn't really a bad thing. ROH uses Sweet n Sour, as their "Entertainment" gimmick, not really focusing on wrestling skills, so i think ROH would make it work, depending on who they got. THey use legends as legends, and they'd use someone like a chris masters in a non wrestler / wrestler role.
