Their reasons

The Top 10 Wrestlers of 2020

Even without crowds for the majority of the year, 2020 produced some excellent wrestling. These 10 men and women stood above the rest.

It still makes no sense to me.

That list is... something...

But you know what? If you take a step back - yes, we can absolutely quibble about the ordering of every single person in the top 9, but I reckon the top 9 are the correct 9.

And their number 10 is a really happy news story of a journeyman wrestler who turn a one-off appearance into a main event run, so I won't quibble with that either.

Edit: Actually, having thought about it, they've probably missed THE guy for 2021 in Hiromu. I think some of his act is over the top and blatant rip offs of other people, but I don't think there's any doubt he should be in the top 10 wrestlers of 2020. No one had more great matches.

I'm going to say it: the only reason Sasha is no 1 on the list is because of the Star Wars thing.
