There is no way Davey Richards should retain the World Title clean; but part of me would be interested in a Richards heel turn. He has been a pretty boring World Champion, but turning might give the dude some character, which is what he so sorely needs. Kevin Steen could then set his sights on punishing Kyle O'Reilly for Richards' transgressions while Jimmy Jacobs tries to avenge Steen. But Steen killing Richards would not be the wrong idea, either. Richards can form a permanent tag team with Kyle O'Reilly, or something. Eddie Edwards is another guy who is good in the ring but doesn't grab me as a character -- add him and Adam Cole to the tag division and really pad it out.
But yeah, most of ROH actually bores me at the moment. The wrestling is good, but it's just lacking...something.

Bennett has the physique and the credentials, having worked in the original ECW as "The Prodigy." That might partially explain why Lance Storm agreed to a match with him. BTW, I heard a spoiler (rare for indy shows!) that Maria will come out in baggy sweat pants and a sweatshirt (with t-shirt underneath) to PO the fans and get heel heat.
