Wyld Samurai Posted August 16, 2016 Share Posted August 16, 2016 If Cedric Alexander keeps throwing out that desperation style offense he had against Ibushi then he's not far off this list. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If he keeps working at that level he'll be my favorite wrestler in WWE(assuming they sign him). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DreamBroken Posted August 16, 2016 Share Posted August 16, 2016 I'd have Bobby Lashley in my top 5. Probably something like Lashley, Reigns, Styles, Cena, and..maybe Joe. I still rank Aries highly even though he hasn't had a huge output this year. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Go2Sleep Posted August 16, 2016 Share Posted August 16, 2016 I think Aries will have a renaissance pretty soon. He hasn't gotten much to work with in NXT except the Nakamura match (which was excellent), but his character work has been top-notch since his debut. If Joe leaves, he could easily step in as NXT's top heel. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Charlie M. Posted August 16, 2016 Share Posted August 16, 2016 I think Roderick Strong has a better chance of taking that spot if he goes to NXT. Aries has always seemed hit or miss for a lot of people. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Canadian is a race now? Does that mean Andrew Huang, Drake, Rosa Mendes and Bret Hart are all the same race? 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Curt McGirt Posted August 16, 2016 Share Posted August 16, 2016 Best idea to have a National Draft instead of a Racial Draft (which presents its own problems, still) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If they use him like they do in PWG without the swears, it will be a million bucks. He's such a great cocky gym rat BRO.

I would also put TJ Perkins on my list. He was born in Los Angeles. I know some don't care for him because he's too smooth and makes everything look too easy.

Spritenaut 32 Posted August 17, 2016 Share Posted August 17, 2016 I guess my top 5 would be the usual suspects: Cena Hero AJ Samoa Joe Roderick Strong Richochet would probably be 6. I really enjoy Mil Muertes, but I've seen far too many crappy Ricky Banderas/Judas Mesias matches to rank him too highly. : Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A "gym rat" gimmick for Roddy wouldn't fly in WWE since Vince's perception of gym rats is that they should all look like this: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RandomAct Posted August 17, 2016 Share Posted August 17, 2016 In no order: Chris Hero Matt Riddle Trevor Lee AJ Styles Bayley I looked at who is having the best body of work against the widest array of workers, and not making every match feel the same. Hero is a MOTYC machine in the last year or so, and Riddle is the most impressive dude I've seen since Akiyama at his experience level. Trevor's CWF work alone gets him in my list, but you look at the fact that he's portraying a completely different version of himself in every promotion, and having a different working style in those same promotions.

Spritenaut 32 Posted August 17, 2016 Share Posted August 17, 2016 I completely overlooked Trevor Lee. He'd probably be my no. 6. The rest my top 10 would be interesting. Probably Bayley at 8, Rey at 9, and Becky or Sasha at 10, maybe? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

For a second, i forgot which thread this was and thought it was the "who could beat brock?" One and did a double take when i saw Bayley. Brock is likely immune to hugging. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mattdangerously Posted August 17, 2016 Share Posted August 17, 2016 Nobody is immune to Bayley's hugs. Even Sasha Banks became her bestie after a few hugs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jack Posted August 18, 2016 Share Posted August 18, 2016 I reckon Chris Hero is head and shoulders the best U.S. worker at the moment. A lot of people have mentioned him but I'm honestly surprised there are one or two that haven't. I'm fairly confident in putting Matt Riddle, Drew Gulak and Roman Reigns as the next three, but the fifth choice is really tricky. Styles or Cena or perhaps Ricochet, though for whatever reason I don't seem to have watched much of his work this year. TJP is a very good shout.
