Guys, Bennett is not that bad. He has gotten better since the Cornette booking days. The matches with Steen at Final Battle and Mark Briscoe at SCOH were really good. He definitely does not deserve as much hate as he gets. on one hand, you make a good point, but on the other hand... ...f*** Michael Bennett!

He definitely does not deserve as much hate as he gets. I am looking foreword to the match. Would I rather see Jacobs or Silas Young get a shot? Ya. But Bennett has improved where I think he deserves this opportunity. I'd take Jimmy Jacobs over Bennett, yes. Ideal opponent for Tanahashi would be AJ Styles, but that can happen in New Japan so it's not TOO bad.

Steen/Swagsuke and Cole/Liger sound like absolute gold.
That is some curious booking with the Elgin match after Okada/Styles. I don't think New Japan are going to book around what ROH is doing, but Styles bringing the IWGP championship to ROH and defending vs. Elgin writes itself.
However, Okada vs. Elgin would absolutely be off the charts. Elgin in New Japan would also be killer.
I wonder if this is a sign of what talent might be heading over to Japan for a bit? I can only imagine that New Japan would want Cole for their junior division. Perhaps Elgin and Bennett will be working over there regularly soon? I think Steen is the exception and that Steen/Nakamura is just an obvious once in a lifetime opportunity.

I wonder if Adam Cole will eventually end up in TNA or WWE.

Mike Bennett is not terrible by any means. He's just the unsexiest pick on the roster for Tanahashi to face off with. Since ROH management is so in love with Bennett, I would not be surprised if they were the ones pushing for this match up.

provided nothing unfortunate happens to him like with Nigel McGuinness, Cole most likely will go on to WWE

Well, that's...huh. I get that Liger is the bigger name in the US and Tanahashi obviously isn't losing on US soil so they couldn't really put him in a title match but still, a match against Bennett seems like such a waste and I actually like Bennett.

Its all politics. NJPW wanted Tanahashi to go over so they booked him against someone who could take a loss without an issue. Thats why Cole isn't booked against him. Liger it seems is only being booked in multiman matches at the start of shows. Plus he's known in the US so its nbd for Cole to go over him. Tanhashi vs Cole would own, but neither company wants their guy to lose

Well I was looking forward to Tom Selleck on the FIsh Tank ... but pressing matters like this obviously take precedent.

Based off of this tweet and the fact {Spoiler}{Spoiler}{Spoiler}AJ Styles is the new IWGP Heavyweight Champion who the hell does Mike Bennett have dirt on in the RoH offices?

Was really hoping that title change didn't happen. Wonder where Okada slots into the show now.
