PWI 500

[Guest casba rocker]

I heard the PWI 500 came out this week, did anyone get it yet? I am interested to see what rankings certin wrestlers got.

 

Oman Tortuga (outcast killaz)

Diablo Santiago (outcast killaz)

Dunn (ring crew express)

Marcose (ring crew express)

Tony Devito (carnage crew)

HC Loc (carnage crew)

 

if anyone could reply back with info would be much appreciated!

[Epic Reine 0]

Oman, Diablo, Dunn, and Marcos [wow, you can't even spell Marcos right?!], probably [and SHOULDN'T] be on the list. And if DeVito and Loc make it, they better be in the 350-500 range.

[Mecha Mummy 0]

I could maybe see the Ring Crew Express showing up near the very end of the list.

[Guest Markingout]

I could maybe see the Ring Crew Express showing up near the very end of the list.

I bet you they will be within 335-400, just because they compete in ROH.

[Zack Malibu 0]

The PWI 500 doesn't mean anything anyways. Hell, half the indy wrestlers in it send in their own information. I've seen untrained, horrid, part-time indy workers from my area ranked in previous years, and there is no way in hell there aren't hundreds of workers better than them.

[Guest DeputyHawk]

No, the PWI 500 means nothing. But in the Push-Me Poll for 2004, they are currently sitting:

 

Dunn & Marcos (133 & 134)

Tony DeVito (155)

Oman Tortuga & Diablo Santiago (175 & 176)

H.C. Loc (189)

 

And that's what really matters.

[The Mandarin 0]

I swear, PWI loves La Parka. He's always in the top 100.

 

Bob Sapp was too low, Samoa Joe should have been top 20, and Teddy Hart and Chris Hero could stand to be a few places higher, but other than that, it's alright. Shirley Doe making 492 is pretty cool.

[Guest Miss Indy Queen]

Why is Jamie Noble listed twice? Number 74 and 76?

[EricMM 0]

Why is American Dragon so low???

 

New Jack over Homicide???

 

Craziness.

[Guest Dynamite Kido]

Lists of randomness = PWI

[LoRisk 0]

408. CJ ODoyle

Hell yeah.

[Guest whitemilesdavis]

That top 30 or so has to be the weakest I've ever seen. I didn't realize what bad shape wrestling was in until I saw that list.

[UseTheSledgehammerUh 0]

Ric Flair # 30.

JBL #15.

 

Indeed.

[Guest The Winter Of My Discontent]

Chavo Guerrero SR was ranked. Thats funny.

[Guest whitemilesdavis]

5. Randy Orton

7. John Cena

16. Shelton Benjamin

18. Ron Killings

21. Eugene

 

 

Not saying I don't like some of these guys, or that they don't have potential. But what have they done in 2004? Not much. Sad thing is, the rest of the list is so weak, there isn't much arguement with these positions

[Spaceman Spiff 0]

Why is American Dragon so low???

 

New Jack over Homicide???

 

Craziness.

The bigger question, is why is he 1 spot ahead (or behind) Tomko? That's just insane.

 

Not t mention behind such notable as Bob Holly, Billy Gunn, Grenier. Flair at 30? Hurricane (who I like) at 58? D-Von at 43?

 

This list is CRAAAAZY.

[Guest The Last Free Voice]

CM Punk at 89? EIGHTY NINE? Oy. That's just horrible. Fuckin hell. At least Eddie and Benoit are at 1 and 2...

[PsychoDriver 0]

34. Samoa Joe

50. Kazarian

77. American Dragon

189. Rockey Romero

194. Ricky Reyes

218. D-Boy (Never heard of D-Boy... B-Boy by any chance?)

221. Shane Ballard

223. Shannon Ballard

227. Bobby Quance

379. Jardi Franz

384. Vito Thomsaselli

403. Sal Thomaselli

465. Bomberry (Hook Bomberry perhaps?)

486. Lil Cholo

 

I know this list is just a joke but man the lack of SoCal and CZW regs. on this list really annoys me.

[UseTheSledgehammerUh 0]

Why isnt Mick Foley ranked?

 

Lawrence Taylor was ranked after 1 WM match, even got a "Rookie of the Year" nomination.

 

Foley was in Rumble 04, Mania XX match, Backlash 04 match, plus an 8 man on Raw.

[Youth N Asia 0]

49. Matt Morgon...what's he done this year? I mean to make to 500, let alone 50.

 

159. Rodney Mack...yeah, he's been productive.

 

150. Jon Heidendreich...him too...worked shitty matches and got pulled off tv.

 

104. Test...haven't seen him in 8 months or so.

 

85. Garrison Cade...

 

Yeah, I know we all bitch about this every year, but there's good reason. and why is it that they can't break down a tag team enough to list them more then a couple of spots apart?

[Youth N Asia 0]

And did I miss something...or are the Briscoe Brothers not listed?

[Guest BrokenWings]

Eugene over a ton of people, namely Samoe Joe, CM Punk and American Dragon?

 

This list gets worse every year.

[Beast 0]

Matt Morgan is high because he's been OVW Champ and PWI treats OVW almost like a regular fed.

[Guest Loss]

Why isnt Mick Foley ranked?

 

Lawrence Taylor was ranked after 1 WM match, even got a "Rookie of the Year" nomination.

Mick Foley didn't win a single match.

So you're saying that if he won one match then he should be ranked and win "Comeback of the Year"?

[UseTheSledgehammerUh 0]

Foley DID win a match.

 

He teamed with Shelton Benjamin, Shawn Michaels, & Chris Benoit to defeat Evolution prior to Backlash.

[Guest Dynamite Kido]

Foley DID win a match.

 

He teamed with Shelton Benjamin, Shawn Michaels, & Chris Benoit to defeat Evolution prior to Backlash.

He should be ranked and win "Comeback of the Year" then.....

Which begs the question:

 

Why is Al Snow on the list?

[Youth N Asia 0]

Snow keeps busy in the indies...but the list is f*cked anyway, so don't look too into it. That's like asking why Goldberg made the list but not Brock. They quit on the same night, AND Brock had a better year...yet Goldie made top 50
