I was never really a fan of Devil, but I have some matches on a playlist that I'll get to soon that might change my mind. Think on the joshi side there's just too much ahead of her. I wouldn't be surprised if she was on a few lists, though.

While Lioness had the better later career, I'm not sure it was better than Chig's early stuff. She'll be on my list for sure.

Overshadowed by Chigusa but was definitely as talented as she was. Prefer her match with Jaguar to the Chig match with Devil on the 8/22/85 show, and I think over time, she ended up being the better wrestler. Liked her a lot more than Chig in GAEA. She should make my list.

Shoe-in for my list. My favorite worker of the BATBAT style. One of the best ass-kickers I've ever seen and he took a beating as good as anyone I've ever seen, too. Top 50 off the top of my head, maybe Top 25, although I wouldn't be surprised if someone put him in their Top 10.

Same thing here with Ikeda like it was with Otsuka. Didn't do much for me in NOAH (Although I know there's a couple random mid-card matches he was in that people liked) but he was just something else in BATBAT. Could see him making my list.

Will go back to watch some of the older BattlArts stuff since it's been a while, but I think he merits inclusion if you base this on in-ring work as much as a lot of us are. He was a fantastic wrestler for the style he worked. Has a shot of making my list.

Always a weird one for me. He's good in the ring, but outside of the Austin series, I never really connected with him. Can't see him making my list.

I want to find a spot for him on this list but going through who's on it right now, he might be one of the last guys out for me. Loved his stuff as ace and he has one of my all-time favorite tag matches in the RWTL match with Rusher vs. Tenryu and Hansen. Hope I can find a spot for him.

She's gotta make the list for me. Obviously the tag series with Ozaki vs. Toyota and Yamada. GREAT matches with Aja. Just all around one of the better joshi wrestlers I ever saw.

Really only saw him in those great 80's AJPW tags with Jumbo against Choshu, but haven't seen much else of him. Any recommendations outside of those AJPW tags?

If you weigh influence, I'll buy his inclusion. If you weigh work, I can't. Hasn't aged well at all. Won't make my list.

I've seen some really good Harley stuff and I don't see how he can't make my list. And that's without seeing much of him in Florida.

Man, the Baba matches are tremendous. Some of the most fun 60's/70's stuff you'll see. He'll be on my list.

In his heyday, there was probably nobody more fun to watch. Here's a guy barely 5 feet tall and 300 lbs. and the way he moves is just crazy. The Brazos tag at AJW Wrestlemarinepiad in 1990 is fantastic and Porky was the main reason why. I don't know if he'll have enough to make my list, but he's definitely a fun guy to watch.

He'll be on my list for sure. One of the best big men ever. For as much praise as Bigelow got, Blackwell was better in basically every way. His match with Lawler in 1981 is one of my favorite Lawler matches ever and it's because of Blackwell's performance.

Only have seen a couple matches of his, but O'Connor was a tremendous worker for his time. Rogers/O'Connor from June 1961 is as good as it got for the time period and is one of my favorite matches of all time.

If the Chicago stuff is any indication, Verne's stock is rising in my eyes. Really paints a good picture of him as a worker. He'll probably be on there when it's all said and done.

I nominated Dump and I could see Abby make it thanks to his non-US stuff. Just a force of nature. Might make the bottom of my list.

Is there much of Patterson out there? Has a reputation as a good hand and supposedly his work with Ray Stevens is all-time worthy stuff. Did much of San Francisco ever make tape?

The Valentine feud is an all-timer and I liked his stuff in the late 80's in the NWA. Thought he brought a lot to the Starrcade '87 cage match against Flair, even if the ending wasn't in doubt and the crowd wasn't a big fan. Not sure he has enough high-end stuff, though, as the Valentine feud would have to heavily weigh on his candidacy.

Giving him some serious consideration due to his AWA stuff. Want to see some of his other pre-WWF stuff, too. Totally could see him on this list.

Dick was always a favorite of mine. The Clash VIII tag match was great and I always thought he was one of the best stooges ever. I can see someone putting him on their list as a favorite pick, but I'm not sure if I'll have enough room for him.

Another one of my old favorites but don't think he has the stuff to make it either. When going through some WCW stuff recently I didn't like too much of his work. He definitely has his highlights, but I don't see him making my list.

Not seeing it. Doesn't really have the resume that stands up to the all-time greats that will be on here. That being said, his work with Barry Horowitz in 1995 is some of my favorite stuff from the time period. Always have a soft spot for Candido, but can't see him making my list.

An interesting candidate who really only has a few tag matches and some deathmatches to her name when it comes to top-end matches, but she performed well in those matches. The 5/5/96 match vs. Ozaki is one of the best deathmatches ever, male or female. I don't think she has enough to get her on my list, but she has enough highlights that make you think for a bit.
