A lot of modern WWE matches have this weird, automated, unloose feeling. I think it's really remarkable for me it feels how often WALTER breaks through that for me. Through that even something like having mutiple finishers. I have really enjoyed his his what I have seen from his pre-WWE work, interested in checking out more.

A really good consistency case, he feels the kind of wrestler who tries constuct his matches to uniquely showcase to what will his opponents and tag team partners seem strongb while doing unique stuff himself. His Evan Bourne stuff is really cool especially the Sin Cara No Count Out match, Mark Henry ECW match, and others. The Sheamus vs. Evan Bounre match sticks. Really good team wrestler. The Mattpool/Blackpool Combat Club vs. Team CMLL match last year was awesome, Sydal/Ricochet vs. Young Bucks vs. Penta/Fenix is one of my favorite matches ever, and The Sydal Brothers and Dante Martin vs. Young Bucks and Kenny Omega is still in my head years later. He can also be an nice agressor heel (vs. Will Ospreay in Rev-Pro and his Wrestling Society X). Interested in checking more. He feels like he might be 80-100.

I'm not sure if I has enough for me to feel like he would make my list but, he is great. I watched him live at Wrestle Reunion. i think sometimes he can be abit to touring matchy but, he's still fun in a variety of settings, the El Torito being so fun. He's is the star in one of my favorite matches ever.

Dr. Wagner Jr is proabably so far in my top 10. He's in 3 of my top 100 matches ever. vs. LA Par-K - AAA Sin Limite (11/15/12) vs. LA Par-K - Todo x Todo (5/11/13) vs. Blue Demon Jr - AAA TripleMania XXVII (8/3/19) If you are able to find watch the full show version, the entrances and post match are so cool. Earliest singles match I have seen of him so far (I think) is him vs. Gran Hamada in 1992 which was fun and he's still having good matches in 2025. Here's him vs. Cibrinetico in IWRG 2024. HiS charisma and presence is great, Bad Medicine is such a great theme song. I don't really know Spanish that well but, he feels like he radiates intensity and passion in what he says. I think something really cool about him how consistent has been. Even in awkward settings (his match in STARDOM) and matches that are not as fun (Dr. Wagner Jr vs. The Jason in BJW) he finds a way to keep me connected. He's so cool.

Big Murakami is making my list, very good performances, one of the best aura guys ever. I put him on the Abdullah The Butcher, Timothy Thatcher, and Andreza Giant Panda level were I would want to see him wrestle everyone. He seems be good still, liked what I've seen from him in RJPW and loved his performance in the KTDan 2 tag with Abe, Nomura, and Yuki Ishikawa.

Mei Suruga vs. Kaori Yoneyama Jushin Thunder Liger vs. Yoshitsune/SUGI Daniel Bryan vs. Tyson Kidd - Saturday Morning Slam Munenori Sawa vs. Fugo Fugo Yumeji at a festival Ted DiBiase vs. Jim Duggan Masaharu Funaki vs. Tatsuo Nakano Lita vs. Trish Stratus Drew McIntyre vs. Oney Lorcan - WWE NXT

Not sure how to feel about Okada, he has alot of great matches but, feels interesting. One of the big detrimental parts of Okada (specifically in his AEW run) is sometimes having a lack of spark and ot effecting his matches alot. I get Okada. I often feel like I want to like his matches more than what comes out.

He's so good!! Nearly everything I have seen him in as has been and interesting. I'm really connected with me, he's so fun. Right now he might be my favorite wrestler of the pre-color tv eras. Has a charisma that connects with alot of fun technical stuff. Not sure where he'll rank but, he's proabably making my list. Here's two matches that really helped me get him.

Mad Dog Connelly is great and is maybe one of the best wrestlers in the world right now. He brings a great intensity and anything can happen to his matches. Great presence. Him vs. Matt Tremont from DPW Victory Lap is one of my favorite matches of the year so far. The Rick Rude comp is fun because his character before Connelly was Dan Liplock (basically a Shawn Micheals early 90s character) from what I have seen is solid but, felt not him. I think it's way too early for him but, if someone put in their 90s I would understand it. Very fun to watch but, is still developing. I try to be stricter with newer wrestlers and more lenient towards older wrestlers.

I have struggled alot with Moxley and if should include him. To me the biggest case against him is in-ring he feels to much like a mirroring dance partner. I think he sometimes wrestles to much the level of his opponents energy wise on. If his opponent is unmotivated or having a bad day in the ring, he is not the type that can save the match and sometimes feel like not get a great individual performance out. One of the better promo and angle workers in modern wrestling too. Moxley is more of a case of that hes a great wrestler but, as of now it feels like I connect with other 90 wrestlers as better wrestlers and he's doesn't feel like a 10 personal pick. Great promo/angle doer and super important wrestler though. The Bucks are proabably the most important wrestlers in starting the ethos of an AEW happening but, Jon Moxley is the most important wrestler in that companies history. I don't know if AEW last as long as it has does without Moxley putting so much heart, credibility, and glue to the promotion.

I personally don't see it at all with Alexa Bliss. If it's In personal favorite section that's cool. I think it is cool with this lists to who connects with pepole. I know my 100 will have wrestlers that proabably won't connect to everybody. I haven't rewatched it but, her and Nikki Cross vs. Asuka and Kairi Sane from the empty arena Wrestlemania stands out as a great match even 5 years later. The Twisted Bliss is so very cool move.

Johnny GWE, one of my favorites as a kid and consistently fun to watch. He does have dips but, those feel like dips (the Samoa Joe, AEW match) but, those feel to me, him having an off night and not clicking more than a consistent run awkward. His Lucha Underground run is great and the AEW Johnny TV (especially when Rampage was happening) consistently fun. One of most fun live wrestlers I have ever seen, especially at indie shows. For context alot of the shows were not taped (there's fancam AEW x Adult Swim Battle For The Booty) but he still put on very fun efforts. I think he is very making things work as a wrestler through his charisma, charm, and skill. A triple threat cage match proabably with The Miz and John Cena who had shakey chemistry before/after this match shouldn't work but it does. Even stuff like the Dirty Dishes match with Taya Valkyrie would feel uncomfortable and maybe a slog with any other pair besides them but, it ends up being a very fun match. Also stuff like the Bad Bunny debut too. The Bunny Destroyer was so cool. Him as The Hammer in Russel Madness is fun too. I think he might 70-90, possibly higher More Match Recs CM Punk vs. John Morrison - WWE ECW, Aired 9/4/06 John Cena vs. John Morrison vs. The Miz (Steel Cage) - WWE Extreme Rules 2011 Big Ryck vs. Johnny Mundo vs. Prince Puma (Ladder Match) - Lucha Underground S1E07, 2014 Johnny Mundo vs. Prince Puma (All Night Long) - Lucha Underground S1E32, 2015 Johnny Mundo vs. Prince Puma - Lucha Underground S3E40 Ultimo Lucha Thres Part 4, 2016 Bad Bunny & Damian Priest vs. John Morrison & The Miz - WWE Wrestlemania Night 1, 4/10/21 Bandido vs. Johnny Downunder - WSW, 3/10/23 Royce Isaacs vs. Johnny Bloodsport - GCW Bloodsport, 3/30/23 Johnny TV vs. Orange Cassidy - AEW Rampage, 8/11/23 Johnny TV & MxM Collection (Mansoor & Mason Madden) vs. Big Boom AJ & The Conglomeration (Mark Briscoe & Orange Cassidy) - AEW Revolution 2025 - Zero Hour, 3/9/25

I think Mei Suruga is probably going to end up in the 90s (personal favorites abd/or limited footage wrestlers I enjoy) This is not Mei Suruga's best match but, a great display on how good she is right now (as of now with Kenny Omega for my picks for wrestler of the year so far). She is facing someone who is celebrating their first year as a wrestler and she had a compelling match inspiring me to watch more Hiyori Kawata. She's doing do so good in her ace run.

Put, this on my GWE list. Tarzan Goto rules too!

Posted this in the Discord "I think you can a case on Dusty Rhodes being a great worker. Really good selling (ex: The Barry Windham claw match) and a good house of energy). He's really good, is a fun old man wrestler, and has great strikes energy (ex: The Sheild vs. Cody and Goldust). The first War Games is all time great match and he's in it the whole time. I don't know if he'll make my list but, I could see a case even without promos. I connect to him more than Atsushi Onita and Hulk Hogan who feel like comps for him." I'm also factoring promos/angles and he's a very good promo/angle wrestler.
