I got you. I like that. Some people want you to rank what you consider to be objectively the best and stuff.

KENTA to be honest, I'm not really surprised he didn't make the top 16. Largely, due to him probably having only 25 matches give or take in ROH, if anything his rank is pretty impressive considering some of the people he beat in the rankings.

I was just under the impression that his matches w Bryan were pretty much legend and were a catalyst for basically the new modern hybrid style we see today. But it's a favorite list I get it, his run in wwe prob hurt his overall stock too forvsure

I'll admit I'm not the most knowledgeable guy too, I think the only one i don't get is Davey Richards , just looks so bland

Oh his matches in ROH were epic no doubt, but I think its tour mentality. On skill alone, you should argue that wrestlers like Okada and Shingo should have at least made the rankings in some regard. I was just offering reasons why KENTA wasn't nominated.

 

[Comrade Khan]

How many matches did aj have btw, didn't even know he was in roh lol

Off my head, I'm not sure. Although he had two runs. One right at the start, and then when he was in NJPW.

Yeah, these top 16s are going to be incredibly tough for pretty much for this whole series especially if you think this is just us in the indies.
