He was in last year's but not this year's. Very, very surprising given his recent successes. |

In earlier ones, they have ranked guys who didn't wrestle (due to DEATH) ahead of alive folks!

I remember Lawrence Taylor being really high in the rankings in 95 when he beat Bam Bam Bigelow at Wrestlemania. I don't think a non-wrestler should be in the top 500 based on 1 match.

The rankings have evolved from if you had wrestled on prime time, even slightly you were ranked, to include more independent guys in recent years. The rankings have gotten more "fair", but how do you guys expect them to watch all wrestlers who wrestle independently? Take it for what it is, a compilation of results they've found and based their rankings onthroughout the year...they can't cover every wrestling card for the whole year. Give them a break!
