2. Pete Dunne 2 (Last Week: 3, Weeks in Rankings: 4, Peak: 1)

1. Zack Gibson (Last Week: 2, Weeks in Rankings: 4, Peak: 1)

Impact 3: As a whole, I enjoyed the Final Hour show. It felt important and notable, which is not something you can often say about Impact's TV shows. The main event between Johnny Impact and Killer Kross was a lot of fun, mainly thanks to Kross. That man is legitimately terrifying and has some of the best facials in wrestling today. 

10. Jordynne Grace (Last Week: NR, Weeks in Rankings: 1, Peak: 10)

9. Desi Hit Squad (Last Week: 9, Weeks in Rankings: 5, Peak: 9)

6. oVe (Last Week: 7, Weeks in Rankings: 64, Peak: 2)

5. Tessa Blanchard 1 (Last Week: 4, Weeks in Rankings: 17, Peak: 4)

4. Moose (Last Week: 5, Weeks in Rankings: 24, Peak: 3)- Moose and Eddie Edwards had the match of the night here. It was a great match with Edwards selling like a champ and looking like a million bucks.

3. Brian Cage (Last Week: 2, Weeks in Rankings: 38, Peak: 1)

2. Eli Drake (Last Week: 3, Weeks in Rankings: 65, Peak: 1)

1. Johnny Impact 1 (Last Week: 1, Weeks in Rankings: 8, Peak: 1)

ROH 11: Between Survival of the Fittest, the regular TV episode, the Jericho Cruise, and Global Wars, this was a busy week for ROH. 

10. Kelly Klein (Last Week: NR, Weeks in Rankings: 1, Peak: 10)

9. Flip Gordon 1 (Last Week: 10, Weeks in Rankings: 2, Peak: 9)- What a great week this was for Flip Gordon. Not only did he win the Sea of Honor tournament, but he had a star-making moment on ROH TV. For those who missed it, Gordon was forced to take ten Singapore cane shots from rival Bully Ray. Though his friends begged Bully off, Flip never wavered and accepted each shot. This was exactly in the vein of Tommy Dreamer in ECW.

8. Young Bucks 2 (Last Week: 7, Weeks in Rankings: 82, Peak: 1)

7. Adam Page (Last Week: 6, Weeks in Rankings: 82, Peak: 1)

5. Jeff Cobb 1 (Last Week: 5, Weeks in Rankings: 7, Peak: 5)

4. Cody 2 (Last Week: 3, Weeks in Rankings: 72, Peak: 1)

3. The Kingdom (Last Week: 4, Weeks in Rankings: 20, Peak: 3)

2. The Briscoes 1 (Last Week: 2, Weeks in Rankings: 79, Peak: 1)- Jay and Mark met in the semifinals of the Sea of Honor tournament and it was the best match of the tournament. The two brothers worked a hardcore style that was different than any other match in the tournament. Jay also had a good match with Gordon in the finals, cementing him as the tournament's MVP. 

1. Jay Lethal 3 (Last Week: 1, Weeks in Rankings: 82, Peak: 1)

NJPW 10: 

10. Juice Robinson (Last Week: NR, Weeks in Rankings: 1, Peak: 10)

9. Roppongi 3K (Last Week: 8, Weeks in Rankings: 2, Peak: 8)

8. Chris Jericho 1 (Last Week: 9, Weeks in Rankings: 2, Peak: 8): Alpha Club may have lost on the Jericho Cruise, but Y2J deserves a ton of praise for putting on such a successful event. Even now, the man continues to turn wrestling on its head.

7. Kazuchika Okada 1 (Last Week: 7, Weeks in Rankings: 82, Peak: 1)

6. Hirooki Goto (Last Week: 6, Weeks in Rankings: 21, Peak: 3)

5. Jay White 2 (Last Week: 5, Weeks in Rankings: 18, Peak: 5)

2. Kenny Omega 3 (Last Week: 2, Weeks in Rankings: 82, Peak: 1)

1. Tetsuya Naito (Last Week: 1, Weeks in Rankings: 82, Peak: 1)
