I've got questions.

I think the time considered runs from June to June or something like that.

1. Wasn't Hangman off a big chunk of that time?

2. Trick Williams? Was he dominant on NXT then?

3. Oba is too low.

4. How did Moxley not make the top ten as I think he was belted up, competed in Japan and did a lot during the period?

I legit laughed out loud when the Bucks dropped the Dudley Boyz reference during last night's show. Wonder if that would actually get them to mention AEW on Busted Open at least for that?
The best part about it is that Bubba lacks the intelligence and linguistic ability to be able to say something vague enough to get the point across without being direct.

So it’s either bite his tongue and seethe over it privately or get baited into saying something that gets heat on himself.

It’s August 1 to July 31.

And yes Hangman was out for a while, but it’s a kayfabe ranking and he was the champ for nearly four months and a trios champ for 49 days.

His match quality was insane during the period too - 14 matches rated 4* or higher - and PPVs headlined by him did big numbers business wise.

Oba is overrated on this list based on what the guidelines are for ranking someone. You’re telling me an NXT title is worth more than nearly every other title in wrestling? That’s nonsense. Never main evented a main roster PLE. Only two main roster main events were two squashes on a random Raw. NXT didn’t draw even 2K for the four major NXT shows in the eval period even when they left the PC for three of them. At least one ended up having to move to a smaller venue because it wasn’t selling tickets despite him being in the main event for 3 of them.

Did he have a top 10 year though? Yeah probably, but the evaluation criteria doesn’t say top 10 to me given the people who ranked below him.
