Greatest ROH Champion Tournament

[thesam07]

Due to boredom and interest I have decided to do a tournament to crown the Greatest ROH Champion EVER*!
There have been 12 champions in the past 8 years. So who is the greatest? Does Samoa Joes title length mean he's the greatest? Does Low-Ki being the first mean he's the greatest? Does Austin Aries being the only 2 time ROH Champ make him the greatest? Is AmDrag truly the "best in the world"? And CM Punk may be drug free and alchohol free, but is he truly better than you? LET THE TOURNAMENT BEGIN!

The entrants have been randomised thanks to random.org. There will be 2 contestants per match. The first entrant to gain 7 votes moves onto round 2. Round 3 will see a triple threat vote. Here is the matches for round 1.

Round 1

Nigel McGuiness vs Takeshi Morishima
