The end of the Matt Taven era.<\/p>\n<p>Taven and Jay Lethal have been champions the past 454 days. Both of these guys had similar championship runs. They are both more or less ROH lifer guys. A vast majority of their opponents have been performers that were not built to be real competition for them. As a result, most if not all of their title matches were underwhelming to bad.<\/p>\n<p>But, both performers have resigned after their run was over. Both are very talented performers, but suffered at the hands of ROH booking decisions. I look forward to a face Matt Taven run over the next 6 months. He has earned my respect; I do not think there are many performers that could have lifted ROH up over the last 6 months.<\/p>\n<p>Now that we are past both Taven&#8217;s and Lethal&#8217;s runs, what\u2019s next? Will overall booking change with Rush being in the top position? Will ROH look to change up some of their standard and promoless storylines? Will Bully Ray keep shoving himself down our throats? Yes, unfortunately.<\/p>\n<p>I have some unsubstantiated hope that ROH will get better over the next six months, but I won\u2019t be surprised if the company continues to lose market share as AEW and WWE take up all the oxygen of the North American market.<\/p>\n<hr \/>\n<p><em>Tyler has been a wrestling fan for 20 years.
