These four wrestlers are in my ballot. Certainly the best Negro Casas match from this year. Solar and Blue Panther are old and they are past their prime but they can still deliver the goods on the mat. Just don't ask them to go on the third rope. The best part of the match are the interactions between Casas and Terry.

With Nash at 53, I'm pretty sure we will see HHH at number one.

You should watch some of his 2006-2007 matches - one of my favorites is this one : Mistico, Hijo del Santo & Negro Casas vs Atlantis, Ultimo Guerrero & Black Warrior from 08/04/2006

A good Tv brawl in WWWF Blackjack Lanza & Blackjack Mulligan vs Dominic Denucci & Johnny Rivera - 06/1975 There is some clippings of him versus Flair. He was a great promo guy - I like the stuff when Flair came to see him in 1984 to team against Wahoo and Tully.

Indy guys like Joe, Punk or Low Ki.

With Lizmark, I might also be the high voter for Hokuto, Ozaki and Nagayo.

He is one of the two Golden Era workers I vote for : First of all, he has the most amount of footage from CFA. The guy is a natural. His career start in 1949 and he already has good matches one year later (on tape). Not a top technician guy like a Pat O Connor or a Billy Goelz or even a Lou Thesz, he is in the tier below and he could held his own against these guys. His main card is the pure babyface : his selling is quite good and his fire is tremendous. He could carry limited workers like Dick the Bruiser or Yukon Eric with his bumping. On offense, he can throw a good punch. Some recommendations : Verne Gagne & Bobby Bruns vs Rudy Kay & Al Williams 05/12/1950 Verne Gagne vs Billy Goelz 06/21/1950 Dick the Bruiser & the Lisowski Brothers vs Verne Gagne, Wilbur Snyder & Argentina Rocca 1956 His three matches against Hans Schmidt (Wrigley Field, Chicago and Buffalo) His main problem is that we don't have footage from the 60's (I would love to see him against Mad Dog Vachon). In the 70's you can see his match against Jimmy Valiant for an example and it's the same way he worked in the 50's against a Schmidt or a Dick the Bruiser albeit a bit slower.

Buddy Rogers as a babyface in the early 1940's He could match the veteran in the stiffness.

What do you mean by a lot ? I watch all of his taped matches (10) from youtube. His personal performance was great in all of his matches. Old William Regal has similiar facial expressions and he borrows the robes from him. His only stinker was the match against Woddy Strode : a good athlete but a very green wrestler.
