Feel free to do predictions for the top 10. The list will start being posted later today. Big thanks to @Steiner for his help. --- "Hope is allowed to be stupid, unwise, and naive." ~Sir Chris ... Copied to Clipboard!

Let's get this started then! Thanks to Steiner for the write-ups and links.
100. Lou Thesz Score: 16 # of lists: 2 The man who defined what it meant to be a World Champion, dominating the world of wrestling in the 50s and 60s. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cqIHV0m29FU; Lou Thesz vs. Buddy Rogers, June 21 1950 99. Jon Moxley / Dean Ambrose Score: 16 # of Lists: 3 As part of The Shield he had some of WWE's most memorable matches in his first few years, but probably doesn't make this list without his awesome work in New Japan and AEW since. https://www.dailymotion.com/video/x479znu; The Shield vs. The Wyatt Family, February 23 2014 96 (tie): Riki Choshu Score: 17 # of Lists: 1 One of the earliest holders of the IWGP title and a legend of New Japan Pro Wrestling - Choshu is notale for being the first native to turn heel in a Japanese promotion, with puro up to that point being entirely a story of Japanese heroes fighting off foreign (American) menaces https://www.dailymotion.com/video/x7ibxb2; Riki Choshu vs. Antonio Inoki, May 18 1984 96 (tie): Great Khali Score: 17 # of Lists: 1 People were told they could use any criteria for this list. I'm unsure which qualify Khali. He's definitely tall! https://www.dailymotion.com/video/x8gdfw; Giant Singh (Great Khali) and Giant Silva vs. Yuji Nagata & Manabu Nakanishi 96 (tie): David Starr Score: 17 # of Lists: 1 After wrestling for a few years in the States, especially CZW, Starr really found success moving to Europe, where his feud with WALTER which evolved into a feud with Jordan Devlin became the high point of independent wrestling for the past couple of years. https://www.dailymotion.com/video/x74ilml; David Starr vs. WALTER, March 8 2019 --- "Hope is allowed to be stupid, unwise, and naive." ~Sir Chris ...

Maniac64 06/15/20 9:02:36 PM #31: |
Let's do another batch to get some discussion going.
94 (tie): Keith Lee Score: 18 # of Lists: 1 One of the big names of the peak of the US indie boom of the mid 2010s, his matches with Dijak got both nationwide buzz on the indies, and Lee has continued having big man flippy doo matches on a bigger stage in NXT since https://www.bilibili.com/video/av60191569/; Keith Lee vs. Tomohiro Ishii, November 9 2017 94 (tie): Harley Race Score: 18 # of Lists: 1 The original King of Wrestling, and maybe the last "shooter" of the NWA Champions - important in that tangling with Flair gave Flair the legitimacy to carry the torch even though he was no shooter. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UDWD_fjreo8; Harley Race vs. Terry Funk, July 1 1977 91 (tie): Nick Jackson Score: 18 # of Lists: 2 One half of one of the defining tag teams of the 21st century, Nick is the one responsible for what Excalibur will always let you know is the greatest hot tag in wrestling. For my money he also has the slightly stronger singles catalogue, which is why I'm throwing one of those matches in for Nick. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8XesuznnHaA; Nick Jackson vs. El Generico vs. Kota Ibushi vs. Jigsaw, March 28 2009 91 (tie): Hiromu Takahashi Score: 18 # of Lists: 2 While on excursion began an in ring rivalry with Dragon/Ryu Lee that will keep the two interwoven through their career, and since returning to New Japan has been one of the centerpiece stars of the Junior Heavyweight division, becoming one of the most popular wrestlers in all of Japan. https://www.dailymotion.com/video/x6l1003; Hiromu Takahashi vs. Taiji Ishimori, June 4 2018 91 (tie): Big Van Vader Score: 18 # of Lists: 2 Vader wrestled everywhere, and was awesome everywhere. Changed what it meant to be a big man in wrestling, and his influence in that regard is still felt today in terms of a much more athletic style. But even still, Vader was at his best beating the shit out of people. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4y5JkZmxOjE; Super Vader vs. Kiyoshi Tamura, June 10 1994 90: Genichiro Tenryu Score: 18 # of Lists: 3 While WWF fans might know him best for being part of the crew ambushing Undertaker on Yokozuna's behalf at Royal Rumble 1994, Tenryu is one of the most famous names in Japanese wrestling. In particular his match with Jumbo Tsuruta can be pointed to as the beginning of the King's Road style. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JfJyL-dJf_M; Jumbo Tsuruta vs. Genichiro Tenryu, June 5 1989 --- "Hope is allowed to be stupid, unwise, and naive." ~Sir Chris ...

While I didn't vote for anyone in the bottom ten here, I definitely think it's a decent opening salvo. I would definitely give Takahashi a high spot on a list of active wrestlers, and the Bucks simply suffered the burden of being a tag team; I find it hard to sacrifice two spots to a team on a list like this.

This batch might get an interesting reaction.
87 (tie): Ultimate Warrior Score: 19 # of Lists: 1 he shook the ropes pretty good https://www.dailymotion.com/video/xjsmjc; The Ultimate Warrior vs. Macho Man Randy Savage, March 24 1991 87 (tie): Ronda Rousey Score: 19 # of Lists: 1 Maybe the best one year career you'll ever see in wrestling - in one full year in the WWE she delivered every time out, until the final match underwhelmed. Nobody could have predicted how good she'd be up until that point though, from one of the best debut appearances in wrestling history through a tremendous women's title reign that truly helped make a star for the first time in WWE in years in Becky Lynch https://www.dailymotion.com/video/x77ki8h; Ronda Rousey vs. Sasha Banks, January 27 2019 87 (tie): Chris Benoit Score: 19 # of Lists: 1 One of the internet's first darlings, as tape trading was in its heyday Benoit was the star of many, notably the 94 Super J Cup which may have been the most sought after tape of its day. He'd continue to be known as one of the most intense and technically sound workers of the 90s and 2000s. One of wrestling's biggest tragedies. https://www.dailymotion.com/video/x26na8w; Wild Pegasus vs. The Great Sasuke, April 16 1994 86: Ultimo Dragon Score: 19 # of Lists: 3 While the Lucharesu style was first popularized by Gran Hamada, Ultimo Dragon is the man who would make it his legacy, forming Toryumon in 1997 which would form the basis of Dragon Gate, for that alone Ultimo is in part responsible for advancing the lightning quick, hard hitting style that would become the hallmark of high end independent wrestling in the modern era. https://www.dailymotion.com/video/x23pugz; Ultimo Dragon vs. Dean Malenko, December 29 1996 --- "Hope is allowed to be stupid, unwise, and naive." ~Sir Chris ...

I will never not have a hard time divorcing Benoit from his career. I gave Ultimo consideration, along with a ton of the WCW cruiserweight era. Just too many talented guys from that period.
