Just so you know, the timeline is July 1, 2017 - June 30, 2018. I’ll add that to my post. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Thanks for the timeline. Long time since I read a PWI magazine. Now knowing said timeline, I'd still have Kazuchika Okada as my #1. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Now knowing said timeline, I'd still have Kazuchika Okada as my #1. I definitely can see an argument for Kenny as #1 since he dethroned Okada but I really don’t get AJ being higher than Okada. I don’t see any argument that AJ had a better run than Okada in that timespan, in terms of kayfabe and actual quality. Okada had better matches, bigger matches, and was more successful in kayfabe. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
