Doubt Dusty can come along due to WWE. I mean, as of right now, Cody can't even use "Rhodes". Luckily there are lots of names that would sell an ROH set if we don't get Cody, but he not only makes sense, I have a feeling he'd move the needle on sets too. I only casually follow ROH right now so this question isn't meant to slight anyone or to be a jerk but... It feels to me like we have the majority of the roster, leaving only some mid-lower carders to be released. Other than Cody and Alex Shelley, who do you see as a big set seller that we don't already have? Bubba Ray if he signs. |

We could put out a Legends Prequel set with all the guys we've seen go through NXT from ROH, and end up on RAW or SD. Kenny Omega was probably the last true star we released (thanks to Vegas and Kenny). At this point anything extra is just a bonus IMO. |

We've gotten a bunch of wrestlers through the ROH sets that I didn't think we'd ever get. |

Somewhat related topic - Not a fan of Alberto Del Rio as a person (obviously), but I'd have fun with a card for him. And I'd MTFO for a Jack Swagger card. With both headed to CWFH, I'm hoping our friend throwingtoasters can work his magic... I'm guessing (hoping) that scenario is our best shot at getting "big" names this year from the Indy world. I'd be cool with a Cody card, and hope it happens, but without him signed to ROH, I'm not expecting it. |

They've been nothing but miraculous with FG. CHIKARA too. |

It'd be nice (especially if Dusty came along in the deal) but I'd not be surprised by a no either. If he does, I wouldn't mind both an ROH and a Legends card though. I love the Dream, but it would be hard to top Swarms Dusty. His Hardy pack, nwa pack and njpw are the gold standard for all "bootlegs" and are they only ones I feel I don't need any official fg card for. Rather have someone without a release from Rob or FG. "Exotic" Adrian street would b awesome in color. |

Grant's CWFH boots are on the same level, using a lot of the same friendly resources. I wasn't always pro boots, but I believe they are a huge staple that keeps this community buzzing. |

It's really nice for getting guys we'll never have otherwise.

Personally, I'd love to see more Women of Honor (Mandy Leon, Faye Jackson, Jenny Rose) and always love non wrestler cards. We could have a Cary Silkin card, a Todd Sinclair card. As mentioned before, Bully Ray would be a great addition. And there's always new young talent to be added, too. Not to mention the unicorns for me: NJPW. I still think a War of the Worlds set would rock. I mean, with Kushida holding the TV title, Ishii having done so in the past, Suzuki challenging Cody for the title, Naito and Okada both having made appearances. I know some disagree, but if you really want to run a modern day ROH true to the events we get, some NJPW talent is essential. And, yes, bootlegs rock, but official cards would be awesome, however unlikely or even impossible.
That said, there's definitely enough talent between the WoH and new blood and older veterans to keep putting out ROH sets. Another 6-pack would be easy. And worth it with Cody to headline, Bully to support, Mandy Leon and Faye Jackson, and a couple of the newer younger guys.
