They are generic heels who don\u2019t make me care for their below average (in terms of ROH workrate) matches. I am hoping that Lethal is booked to go over at 17th Anniversary.<\/p>\n<p>If not, we are looking at a G1 Supercard that will be headlined by a lackluster ROH Champion in Taven. As well as Taven\u2019s equivalent in New Japan &#8211; Jay White. I know this is not a New Japan recap, but I feel like both companies have reacted in similar ways in reaction to the AEW Talent exodus. They have doubled down on homegrown talent that they don\u2019t have to worry about leaving for greener pastures. When, in my opinion, they should leverage their most talented wrestlers and push them to the top.<\/p>\n<p><em>Tyler has been a wrestling fan for 20 years. He\u2019s from Columbus, Ohio.
