The importance of the world title when Savage held it just outweighs Nigel's run.

Nigel's run was certainly important to RoH it's world title.

Him, Joe and Danielson made that title incredibly important to RoH as a company, they was the flag bearers... Macho Man wasn't so much a flag bearer.

Went Savage here, Nigel's ROH run was great but it's the macho man here that gets my vote.

Macho is one of the greatest talents to ever step foot inside the ring. His feuds with Hogan and Flair over the title were the stuff of legends and he workd effectivly as either a face or heel. Hard break for Nigel here.
