Tenzan finishing so high is a mad one. Once we were into the 400s I just assumed he got zero votes.

Shocked that I was the high vote on Sano.

Definitely agree with the culture element. I'm from the North West of England where you'd find a Jim Breaks or Brian Maxine type in every pub. Watching WoS with Brits, the harder bit to grasp is the differences in logic between it and most US or Japanese wrestling. For example the way wrestlers flip and roll to "go with the hold", or generally taking a bump off the turnbuckle rather than sticking to the corner. I think this is the biggest reason it struggles to garner a stronger following.

It's a tough sell. Looks drab and the pro wrestling physics feels jarring until one gets used to it.

Sad seeing Clive Myers so low at 481. Should have voted for him.

Is the project based on 'in-ring footage' or just 'footage'? If it's the latter, I can definitely see a case.

Tamon Honda only receiving 4 votes - from 8% to <1% of ballots - feels the most sign of the times result yet.

I was the lone Sid Cooper vote. Regal's childhood favourite wrestler. Surprised to see Konnan and Sakaguchi so low. Figured they had a bigger niche.

A top-tier shithouse. Nominated him, then didn't vote for him. Glad someone else did.

I like the formal nominations. Surely the ultimate point of this is to share and discuss wrestlers. Without nominations we don't get that.

Of the pillars, Kobashi will be comfortably the top ranked.

Always dug the kickpads no shoes look. Rewatched some of Yamamoto matches vs Han and regret not seriously considering him for my list. Also that I had Volk too low.

Who did you miss?

WIth all the spooky wrestlers getting cut, I don't like EVIL's chances in WWE.

Of the modern guys, who ranks highest? Ospreay? Kenny? Okada? Roman? Would assume they'll all feature in the top 50. Where does Cody land?
