Inspired by Jim Smallman’s Top 40 Wrestlers of all time on a recent episode of his Tuesday Night Jaw podcast, I decided to work out my own Top 40.

So here, without much explanation, is my Top 40. Yes there are some random names in here, and yes there are some big names nowhere near this list. This is a list of my favourites over my time watching wrestling, not necessarily the best but the ones I’ve most enjoyed watching.

And you can probably tell from my list what periods and what promotions I’ve most watched… that being late 80’s WWF, mid-90’s WCW, late-90’s WWE, noughties Ring of Honor, NOAH & Dragon Gate and current day PROGRESS.

Who makes your list?
