He feels like make my top 10 maybe even top 5, hoping to watch more. There's a energy I connect to with him, great times. The WCW stuff is really fun from what I've enjoyed. A La Parka and Goldberg from 1998 match stands out. Great NOAH tag! He's part one my favorite matches of 2022, Kento Miyahara, Ryo Inoue, Takuya Nomura, and Yuma Anzai vs. Kosei Fujita, Ryohei Oiwa, Yuji Nagata, and Yuto Nakashima Really liked his 2023 Triple Crown run from a few years specifically the Yuma Anzai and Yuma Aoyagi matches. He was a good base for getting excited about them. Aoyagi match is free with sign up no purchase nessasary. https://www.ajpw.tv/videos/d1ba23ce-293e-4182-b3ec-d29516847ce2 Very fun match in Ganbare Pro vs. Keisuke Ishii. His Hiroshi Tanahashi singles(NJPW) and Shinya Aoki (DDT) singles are great. Hoping to go deeper into NJPW work. He might my favorite NJPW ace ever, the Yuji Nagata vs. MMA fighters matches series has been really cool from what I've seen. He seems to give good effort even though he's been deemphasized. Yuji Nagata rules.

Someone I might consider, I have a soft spot him and George South. Really liked him vs. Stan Lane and vs. Ivan Koloff (1/8/83). Most of knowledge of him from his work as in the 2020s as kind of meme-ish wrestler. I really like his match against George South at the SCI and great in all time random match contender Angels vs. Delirious vs. KUSHIDA vs. Mike Bailey vs. Mike Jackson vs. Yuya Uemura from Impact Wrestling in 2023. Haven't finished but, he has a sweet shoot interview free on highspots.

Fun wrestler, I might try to look into the career. Had a really likable and stooge bumping.

Maybe the biggest star in wrestling right now (in terms of connecting with live crowds) in modern wrestling. I think he is very fun tag worker and kind of hit or miss with singles especially with lack of blood/crowd brawling in Arena Mexico. The MJF match is AMAZING and is my the best match I have seen from both. The Sin Cara is has some fun stuff especially the Evan Bourne matches and knowing the had to wrestle in the dark, with his eyes covered, against non Spanish speakers mostly, and told despite being one of the biggest in wrestling that he was wrestling incorrectly. He is someone that I might consider in the 80s-100 part of my list but, can see going him going higher for others that connect with him more.

What are some of your favorite local legends/standouts? I was listening to a podcast and the person talking about Mentai Kid, bonus points if they are from your region or a region you feel is under discussed. I am tempted to try to find more space for those kind of wrestlers especially in the 90-100 section of my list. Wrestlers Jake De Leon, Jeremy Wyatt, The Statement Andruew Tang, and Aquiles o Matador. Two for might be Socal Crazy (wrestler I have seen live alot locally) and Johnny Goodtime/Kevin Martenson (1/2 of the Rockness Monsters).

The Young Bucks, Jimmy Valiant's work is fun but, the Young Bucks are my of my favorite tag team ever, maybe one of my favorite acts in wrestling history, and in some of my favorite matches of all time.

He's proabably making my list, not sure where but, he rules! A really cool and unique Toba perfomance, great match. Toba starts the match confused by someones weird costume, ends up being the overdog in an engaging way. The match looks like it took place in a gym locker room which rules.

He rules! Proabably not making my list though. Great live wrestler too, seeing him vs. Jeff Cobb was a highlight. I agree he doesn't really fully click or presents himself consistently until the Murderhawk character but he has some fun stuff before then. I think he has fun stuff (specifically the Abyss (Sacrafice match).

He's proabably not making my list (I see him very good - great but, not one of the greatest) but, I think his AEW stuff is great case helper. I have enjoyed AEW and TK ROH match enjoyed (basically everything almost ⭐️⭐️⭐️3/4+). It really says alot about his skills as a wrestler/perfomer that despite not being able to use on hard strikes, blood, big moves, having epics, and being treated like a very serious threat he's having engaging, fun perfomances.

The Billy Kidman and Rey Mysterio vs. Hass and Benjamin at Vengeance 2003 for the WWE Tag Team Champions/Linear WCW Cruiserweight Tag Team Champions is great!

1996 or 2003 maybe

Made a playlist about Dick Togo in the 2010s. It's interesting and cool to see him travel to so many places. I am not a regular NJPW watcher but, I think his bumping and selling in House of Torture build up tags are fun. Not sure if wrestler make my list but, I think hes a great wrestler to consider. https://youtube.com/playlist?list=PLlM1-WJ2N9UcUCqGpepQUNwkdrlF0WUTj&si=PLxfaMHoZlarrpoM

Watched this a few days ago one of the best matches I have ever seen. Recently got into watching Rambo more (I only really knew him from an El Mathematico match), he's wrestles like and cartoonish bumping/selling has the e energy of one of the Home Alone robber villains. The way he bounces from an arm drag and him doing turn buckle teeter totter spots rule. I like how in trios matches, he gives off the vibes that he is hidding out a behind his partners and knowing when to pounce. Hoping to watch more but, he feels like he'll make my list.

One of my favorite things about GWE research so far is going to watch a match expecting to watch more of one and then unexpectedly, someone I was not considering shows out and inspires me to check out more of their work. The unexpected wrestlers are so fun to deep dive on I did not have many thoughts about Rambo and Mighty Inoue last week, but they gripped me so much with their perfomances that they feel will probably make my list too..

Really like Mighty Inoue vs. Pat O'Connor. Last night/this morning I watched a lot (10 matches) of Mighty Inoue. Mighty Inoue great wrestler. Very cool trunks! Very good matches. Interested in learning more about IWE and Mighty Inoue's career. Very good range, showed great spark. Very likely to make my 100. Alot of the matches are clipped and JIP 1/2/91 Jumbo Tsuruta & Mighty Inoue vs. Mitsuharu Misawa & Toshiaki Kawada 10/7/74 Billy Graham vs. Mighty Inoue 10/21/74 Mighty Inoue vs. Verne Gagne 4/11/78 Mighty Inoue vs. Gypsy Joe 9/26/73 Animal Hamaguchi vs. Mighty Inoue 1986 Mil Máscaras vs Mighty Inoue 9/12/84 Chavo Guerrero & Hector Guerrero vs. Gran Hamada & Mighty Inoue 2/26/84 Chavo Guerrero vs. Mighty Inoue 11/25/78 Jumbo Tsuruta vs. Mighty Inoue
